Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a concentrated interface for remotely controlling media properties and scheduling a media operation implemented by a plurality of media servers in a computer network system and to provide a graphical user interface process. SOLUTION: Each server selectively activates a corresponding multi-media device, encodes the media data received from the corresponding multi-media device, and gains access to the corresponding memory device storing the media data. Each server receives user inputs including the server identification information indicating a selected server, the mode information indicating a selected operation mode, and the encoded operation information defined based on the selected operation mode. The commands and related parameters created based on the encoded operation information are transmitted to the selected server via the network.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a graphical user interface process for providing a centralized interface for remotely managing medium assets and scheduling medium operations executed by plural medium servers inside a computer network system. SOLUTION: A centralized user interface provided with a manager terminal, at least one communication-connected medium server and plural end user terminals for scheduling and adjusting the execution of operations to be executed by the medium server is provided. The process starts with a step for displaying this graphical user interface on the display unit of the manager terminal and defines and schedules the operation to be executed to the corresponding part of medium data by a selected medium server.

Abstract: A process of managing media data in a network is provided, the system including an administrator terminal, at least one media server communicatively coupled to the administrator terminal via a network, and a plurality of end user terminals, each of the media servers being operative to store media data, and to transfer portions of media data to selected locations via the network, at least one of the media servers also being operative to stream media data to selected ones of the end user terminals. The process provides a centralized user interface for scheduling and coordinating the execution of operations performed by the media servers. The process begins with a step of displaying a graphical user interface including a plurality of interface components on a display unit of the administrator terminal, the components enabling a user of the administrator terminal to define and schedule operations to be performed by selected ones of the media servers on corresponding portions of media data. User input includes: server identification information indicative of a selected media server; operation information specifying an operation to be performed by the selected media server on a selected portion of media data, and schedule information specifying a schedule for performing the specified operation. Commands and associated parameters are generated based on the operation information and schedule information, the commands and associated parameters for instructing the selected media server to execute the specified operation in accordance with the specified schedule.

Abstract: A process is provided for managing operations including encoding operations in a network system including an administrator terminal, at least one server communicatively coupled to the administrator terminal via a computer network, and at least one multimedia device operative to generate media data and being communicatively coupled with a corresponding one of the servers. Each of the servers is operative to selectively activate the corresponding multimedia device, and is also operative to encode media data received from the corresponding multimedia device, and is further operative to access a corresponding memory device for storing media data. The process includes the steps of: displaying a graphical user interface including a server select interface component enabling a user of the administrator terminal to select one of the servers, and a mode select interface component enabling the user to select between a manual encoding mode of operation enabling the user to manually start and stop a manual encoding process performed by a selected server, and a scheduled encoding mode of operation enabling the user to define a schedule for automatically starting and stopping a scheduled encoding process to be performed by a selected server. User input is received, the input including server identification information indicative of a selected server, mode information indicative of a selected mode of operation, and encoding operation information defined based on the selected mode of operation. Commands and associated parameters, generated based on the encoding operation information, are transmitted to the selected server via the network.
