摘要： A media streamer (10) includes at least one storage node (16) including mass storage for storing a digital representation of at least one video presentation. The mass storage is comprised of a plurality of mass storage units. The at least one video presentation requires a time T to present in its entirety, and is stored as a plurality of N data blocks. Each data block stores data corresponding to approximately a T/N period of the video presentation. The media streamer further includes a plurality of communication nodes (14) each having at least one input port that is coupled to an output of the at least one storage node for receiving a digital representation of a video presentation therefrom. Each of the plurality of communication nodes further includes a plurality of output ports individual ones of which transmit a digital representation as a data stream to a consumer of the digital representation. The N data blocks of the digital representation are partitioned into X stripes, wherein data blocks 1, X+1, 2*X+1, . . . etc., are associated with a first one of the X stripes, data blocks 2, X+2, 2*X+2, . . . etc., are associated with a second one of the X stripes, etc., and wherein individual ones of the X stripes are each stored on a different one of the plurality of mass storage units. The plurality of mass storage units preferably store a single copy of a digital representation of a video presentation. The X stripes are read out in such a manner as to enable a plurality of data streams to simultaneously convey a same one of the N data blocks, or are read out in such a manner as to enable a plurality of data streams to simultaneously convey a different one of the N data blocks.

摘要： A media streamer (10) includes at least one storage node (16, 17) for storing a digital representation of a video presentation. The Video presentation requires a time T to present in its entirety, and is stored as a plurality of N data blocks, each data block storing data corresponding approximately to a T/N period of the video presentation. The media streamer further includes a plurality of communication nodes (14) each having at least one input port and at least one output port; a circuit switch (18) connected between the at least one storage node and input ports of the plurality of communication nodes, the circuit switch selectively coupling one or more of the input ports to the at least one storage node to enable the digital representation stored thereat to appear at one or more of the output ports; and at least one control node (18) coupled at least to the plurality of communication nodes and to the at least one storage node for enabling any one of the N blocks to appear at any output port of any of the plurality of communication nodes.

摘要： A media streamer (10) includes at least one control node (18); a user interface (64, 65, 66) having an output coupled to the at least one control node; at least one storage node (16, 17) for storing a digital representation of at least one video presentation; and a plurality of communication nodes (14) each having an input port for receiving a digital representation of at least one video presentation therefrom. The video presentation requires a time T to present in its entirety, and is stored as a plurality of N data blocks. Each data block stores data corresponding to a T/N period of the video presentation. Each communication nodes further has a plurality of output ports for outputting a digital representation. A circuit switch (12) is connected between the at least one storage node and the input ports of communication nodes for coupling one or more input ports to the at least one storage node. The user interface includes a capability for specifying commands for execution, and the at least one control node is responsive to individual ones of the commands for controlling at least one of the at least one storage node and at least one of the plurality of communication nodes, in cooperation with the circuit switch, so as to execute a function associated with individual ones of the commands. The commands may include video cassette recorder-like commands that include commands selected from a group that includes a Load command, an Eject command, a Play command, a Slow command, a Fast Forward command, a Pause command, a Stop command, a Rewind command, and a Mute command. The commands may also include commands selected from a group that includes a Play List command, a Play Length command, and a Batch command. A synchronous application program interface (API) is provided for coupling, via the user interface, a user application program to the at least one control node. The API includes Remote Procedure Call (RPC) procedures.

摘要： A media streamer (10) includes at least one storage node (16, 17) comprising mass storage for storing a digital representation of at least one video presentation; and a plurality of communication nodes (14) each having at least one input port that is coupled to an output of the at least one storage node for receiving a digital representation of a video presentation therefrom. Each of the plurality of communication nodes further includes a plurality of output ports, individual ones of the plurality of output ports being operable for transmitting a digital representation as a data stream to a consumer of the digital representation. Individual ones of the output ports also have an associated data buffer for buffering a portion of a digital representation prior to a transmission of the digital representation. Each of the plurality of communication nodes further includes a scheduler for scheduling, for individual ones of the data buffers, a read request to the at least one storage node for a next sequential portion of the digital representation for storage within individual ones of the data buffers. Each read request for a particular individual one of the data buffers is scheduled at a predetermined time such that a requested next sequential portion of the digital representation is available to a requesting communications node prior to a time that the requested next sequential portion is required to be transmitted from the output port that is associated with the data buffer for which the read request was scheduled. The at least one storage node further includes a scheduler for scheduling a read request to the mass storage such that a next sequential portion of a digital representation is available for outputting, prior to the at least one storage node receiving a read request for the next sequential portion from one of the communication nodes.
