第2A圖至第2F圖為本發明中在觸控螢幕上將多媒體播放裝置建立群組之方法之實施例流程圖,在第2A圖中,操作裝置14的觸控螢幕上會包含一陳列區142及一操作區144,於本實施例中陳列區142在螢幕的下方,而操作區144在陳列區142上方空白處;操作裝置14執行操作多媒體播放裝置的應用程式後,透過路由裝置偵測多媒體播放裝置,並將多媒體播放裝置的圖標102顯示於操作裝置14上之陳列區142,且圖標102係以編號來標示多媒體播放裝置,標號可跳號,例如若有10台多媒體播放裝置,則編號可為1、2、3、4、5、6、7、8、9、20。2A to 2F are flowcharts of an embodiment of a method for establishing a group of multimedia playback devices on a touch screen according to the present invention. In FIG. 2A, the touch screen of the operation device 14 includes an exhibition area. 142 and an operation area 144. In this embodiment, the display area 142 is below the screen, and the operation area 144 is in the blank space above the display area 142. After the operation device 14 executes the application of the multimedia playback device, the operation device 14 detects the application through the routing device. The multimedia playback device displays the icon 102 of the multimedia playback device on the display area 142 of the operation device 14, and the icon 102 is numbered to indicate the multimedia playback device, and the number can be hopped. For example, if there are 10 multimedia playback devices, The numbers can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 20.
第2B圖中,使用者開始利用操作裝置14遙控多媒體播放裝置,首先選擇一台欲播放的多媒體播放裝置,將其圖標102從陳列區142拖曳到操作區144,於第2B圖之實施例中選擇的多媒體播放裝置是1號,因此其成為一個主播放裝置104,已可以開始播放歌曲、頻道等。In FIG. 2B, the user starts to remotely control the multimedia playback device by using the operating device 14. First, a multimedia playback device to be played is selected, and the icon 102 is dragged from the display area 142 to the operation area 144. In the embodiment of FIG. 2B, The selected multimedia playback device is number 1, so that it becomes a master playback device 104, and it is now possible to start playing songs, channels, and the like.
第2C圖顯示在1號主播放裝置104的周圍出現了一個群組區域106,其以主播放裝置104為中心呈現圓形或橢圓形,選擇陳列區142中剩餘多媒體播放裝置的圖標102並拖曳到播放區144,操作裝置14會判斷該圖標102是否在主播放裝置104之群組區域106中,以第2C圖為例,拖曳3號圖標到操作區144,若3號圖標在1號主播放裝置104的群組區域106中,則3號圖標102的多媒體播放裝置會與1號主播放裝置104建立群組連結關係,成為1號主播放裝置104之附屬播放裝置108。2C shows that a group area 106 appears around the No. 1 main playback device 104, which presents a circular or elliptical shape centering on the main playback device 104, and selects the icon 102 of the remaining multimedia playback device in the display area 142 and drags it. To the play area 144, the operating device 14 determines whether the icon 102 is in the group area 106 of the main playback device 104. Taking the 2C picture as an example, drag the icon No. 3 to the operation area 144, and if the number 3 icon is on the No. 1 main In the group area 106 of the playback device 104, the multimedia playback device of the icon 3 of FIG. 102 establishes a group connection relationship with the No. 1 main playback device 104, and becomes the subordinate playback device 108 of the No. 1 main playback device 104.
特別的是,群組區域106會猶如一個軌道般,附屬播放裝置108皆位在圓形或橢圓形的軌道上,呈現衛星環繞行星之狀。如第2D圖所示,再將4號和6號多媒體播放裝置的圖標102拖曳到1號主播放裝置104的群組區域106中,則3號、4號、6號等三個附屬播放裝置108的圖標皆圍繞1號主播放裝置104的圖標。而已移動到操作區144的圖標就不會顯示在陳列區142中。In particular, the group area 106 would be like a track, and the accessory playback device 108 would be in a circular or elliptical orbit, presenting a satellite surrounding the planet. As shown in FIG. 2D, the icons 102 of the multimedia playback devices No. 4 and No. 6 are dragged to the group area 106 of the No. 1 main playback device 104, and three auxiliary playback devices such as No. 3, No. 4, and No. 6 are displayed. The icons of 108 are all around the icon of the No. 1 main playback device 104. The icon that has been moved to the operation area 144 is not displayed in the display area 142.
此時,1號主播放裝置104及其3號、4號、6號等三個附屬播放裝置108便形成一個群組,於操作裝置14的觸控螢幕上操作主播放裝置108之複數設定及播放,則其附屬播放裝置108會得到相同的設定並同步播放,包括選光碟片、選曲、開始播放、暫停、調節音量、選頻道等。At this time, the main playback device 104 and the three auxiliary playback devices 108 such as No. 3, No. 4, and No. 6 form a group, and the plurality of settings of the main playback device 108 are operated on the touch screen of the operation device 14 and When playing, the affiliate playback device 108 will get the same settings and play synchronously, including selecting a disc, selecting a song, starting a play, pausing, adjusting the volume, selecting a channel, and the like.
若拖曳圖標102到操作區144,但操作裝置14判斷該圖標102不在主播放裝置104之群組區域106中,則成為另一個主播放裝置,如第2E圖所示,5號圖標102是被拖曳到操作區144的空白處,而不是1號主播放裝置104的群組區域106,因此5號圖標102所屬的多媒體播放裝置就會獨立成為一個主播放裝置104’,同理,8號圖標102所屬的多媒體播放裝置會獨立成為另一個主播放裝置104’’。因此操作裝置14可只需操作三個主播放裝置104、104’、104’’,便可同時控制六台多媒體播放裝置。If the icon 102 is dragged to the operation area 144, but the operation device 14 determines that the icon 102 is not in the group area 106 of the main playback device 104, it becomes another main playback device. As shown in FIG. 2E, the icon 5 is 102. Dragging to the blank area of the operation area 144 instead of the group area 106 of the No. 1 main playback device 104, so the multimedia playback device to which the No. 5 icon 102 belongs will independently become a main playback device 104'. Similarly, the No. 8 icon The multimedia playback device to which the 102 belongs will independently become the other primary playback device 104''. Therefore, the operating device 14 can simultaneously control six multimedia playback devices by simply operating the three primary playback devices 104, 104', 104''.
第2F圖中又可將2號圖標拖曳到5號主播放裝置104’的群組區域106’中、20號圖標拖曳到8號主播放裝置104’’的群組區域106’’中,如此一來操作裝置14可只需操作三個主播放裝置104、104’、104’’,便可同時控制三個群組、共八台多媒體播放裝置。In FIG. 2F, the icon No. 2 can be dragged into the group area 106' of the No. 5 main playback device 104', and the No. 20 icon is dragged into the group area 106'' of the No. 8 main playback device 104''. As soon as the operating device 14 can operate only three main playback devices 104, 104', 104", three groups of eight multimedia playback devices can be controlled simultaneously.
第3A圖至第3C圖為本發明中變更群組之實施例示意圖。如第3A圖所示,可將4號圖標拖曳到1號主播放裝置104的群組區域106之外,此時操作裝置14會判斷其是否在其他主播放裝置之群組區域中,第3A圖中4號圖標拖曳到了8號主播放裝置104’’的群組區域106’’中,變成8號主播放裝置104’’的附屬播放裝置,則原本4號圖標所屬的多媒體播放裝置會立即改成與8號主播放裝置104’’的多媒體播放裝置連線,執行相同的動作。而第3B圖中,是將20號圖標拖曳到8號主播放裝置104’’的群組區域106’’之外,操作裝置14判斷20號圖標並不在任何群組區域106、106’、106’’中,而且是在操作區144的空白處,因此20號圖標所屬的多媒體播放裝置變成一個獨立的主播放裝置104’’’,並出現其群組區域106’’’。3A to 3C are schematic views showing an embodiment of a change group in the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3A, the icon No. 4 can be dragged out of the group area 106 of the No. 1 main playback device 104, and the operating device 14 determines whether it is in the group area of the other main playback device, 3A. In the figure, the icon No. 4 is dragged into the group area 106'' of the No. 8 main playback device 104'', and becomes the auxiliary playback device of the No. 8 main playback device 104'', and the multimedia playback device to which the original No. 4 icon belongs is immediately The connection to the multimedia playback device of the No. 8 main playback device 104'' is performed to perform the same operation. In FIG. 3B, the icon No. 20 is dragged outside the group area 106'' of the No. 8 main playback device 104'', and the operation device 14 determines that the No. 20 icon is not in any of the group areas 106, 106', 106. In '', and in the blank area of the operation area 144, the multimedia playback device to which the icon No. 20 belongs becomes an independent main playback device 104''', and its group area 106''' appears.
第3C圖是將4號圖標拖曳到8號主播放裝置104’’的群組區域106’’之外,操作裝置14判斷4號圖標已回到陳列區142,因此斷開4號圖標所屬的多媒體播放裝置與8號主播放裝置104’’的連結關係,4號圖標所屬的多媒體播放裝置恢復待機狀態,不進行播放。3C is to drag the icon No. 4 to the group area 106'' of the No. 8 main playback device 104'', and the operation device 14 judges that the No. 4 icon has returned to the display area 142, thus disconnecting the icon of the No. 4 icon. The connection relationship between the multimedia playback device and the No. 8 main playback device 104'', the multimedia playback device to which the No. 4 icon belongs is restored to the standby state, and no playback is performed.
第4A圖至第4C圖為本發明中取消群組之實施例示意圖。第4A圖係將20號主播放裝置104’’’的圖標拖曳回陳列區142,因此20號主播放裝置104’’’的群組區域106’’’消失,20號圖標所屬的多媒體播放裝置恢復待機狀態,不進行播放。第4B圖係將1號主播放裝置104的圖標拖曳回陳列區142,由於1號主播放裝置104還具有3號及6號兩個附屬播放裝置108在群組區域106中,因此當停止執行1號主播放裝置104時,其群組也會一同取消,3號及6號所屬的多媒體播放裝置並不會跳到其他群組中,而是會跟隨1號圖標的多媒體播放裝置一起回到陳列區142中待機,如第4C圖所示。4A to 4C are schematic views showing an embodiment of canceling a group in the present invention. The 4A figure drags the icon of the No. 20 main playback device 104''' back to the display area 142, so the group area 106''' of the No. 20 main playback device 104''' disappears, and the multimedia playback device to which the No. 20 icon belongs Resume standby and do not play. 4B shows the icon of the No. 1 main playback device 104 being dragged back to the display area 142. Since the No. 1 main playback device 104 also has two auxiliary playback devices 108 of No. 3 and No. 6 in the group area 106, the execution is stopped. When the main playback device 104 is on the 1st, the group will also be canceled together, and the multimedia playback devices belonging to the 3rd and 6th will not jump to other groups, but will return with the multimedia playback device of the No. 1 icon. Standby in the display area 142 as shown in Fig. 4C.
綜上所述,本發明所提供之在觸控螢幕上將多媒體播放裝置建立群組之方法係利用行星式操作多媒體播放裝置彼此之間的群組,使用者在操作裝置上可相當直觀地看到哪幾個多媒體播放裝置組成一個群組,且附屬播放裝置皆圍繞其所連結的主播放裝置,使用者點擊主播放裝置、螢幕出現主播放裝置的設定介面後,只需進行主播放裝置的設定,如選擇播放歌單,則整個群組的所有多媒體播放裝置都會同步播放同一首歌曲,不需要個別設定,更省時省事,且使用者介面簡單易懂,任何人皆可設定多媒體播放裝置的播放群組,具高度操作性。In summary, the method for establishing a group of multimedia playback devices on a touch screen according to the present invention utilizes a planetary operation of a group of multimedia playback devices, and the user can view the operation device fairly intuitively.
