SIMPLIFIED CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ELECTRONIC MEDIA |
摘要 |
A control system with a simplified control device (10) for direct selection of electronic media operations, and for programmed navigation through the conte nt without using dedicated navigation functions of a media player. The simplifi ed control device (10) includes a limited number of keys, comprising direct- select keys (20-26) and navigation keys (30-36), which transmit programmable number key signals rather than dedicated key signals. Direct-select keys (20 - 26) are visually associated with icons displayed by the medial player by shape, color, and/or the like. The icons are dynamically associated with portions of content and/or software instructions stored on a medium, such as a DVD. Activating a direct-select key (20-26) cause the media player to access the associated content and/or instructions. The simplified remote control device (10) also includes navigation keys (30-36) associated with software instructions stored on the DVD, so that navigation operations are consistent for any media player that reads from the DVD. Dedicated keys can also be included.
