Abstract

This paper shows one solution for collection, browsing and reproduction of multimedia content for the Android-based STB (set-top box).

This is achieved by making an abstraction layer which unifies following multimedia content: television channels, Android applications and widgets, DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance) servers, PVR (Personal video recorder) files, images, video and audio files. All multimedia content is treated the same way, and presented with the unique graphical interface.
