    Abstract: Mobile devices that perform synchronization operations are configured to reduce the amount of data that must be synced to perform a media content sync operation over a wireless connection. The sync operation is implemented as a two-phase arrangement, synchronizing first in a metadata sync operation and then in a media content sync operation. The source device transmits to the destination device a last known version number of the music database that was synced to the destination device and a current version number of the media database at the source device. In response to a failure of the network connection before completion of the metadata sync operation, upon establishment of a second network connection between the source device and destination device, the metadata sync is completed only for any version numbers that indicate a version subsequent to the last version number that was synchronized over the first network connection.

    Abstract translation: 执行同步操作的移动设备被配置为减少必须同步的数据量以通过无线连接执行媒体内容同步操作。 同步操作被实现为两相布置,首先在元数据同步操作中,然后在媒体内容同步操作中同步。 源设备向目的地设备发送同步到目的地设备的音乐数据库的最后已知版本号以及源设备处的媒体数据库的当前版本号。 响应于完成元数据同步操作之前网络连接的故障,在源设备和目的地设备之间建立第二网络连接时,元数据同步仅针对指示最后一个版本之后的版本的任何版本号完成 通过第一个网络连接同步的版本号。

    Abstract: Rules are used to determine which digital media assets are to be downloaded from a digital media store preemptively to a client device. In some implementations, a client device receives a notification from the digital media store regarding an update to a remote digital media library. The rules are evaluated to determine which digital media assets are to be downloaded preemptively to the client device. Based on the evaluation of the rules, requests for the digital media assets that are to be stored locally and are not already stored locally are aggregated and sent to the digital media store. The digital media items are downloaded from the digital media store to the client device using, for example, a syncing service.

    Abstract translation: 规则用于确定哪些数字媒体资产将从数字媒体商店抢先下载到客户端设备。 在一些实现中,客户端设备从数字媒体存储器接收关于对远程数字媒体库的更新的通知。 评估规则以确定将哪些数字媒体资产预先下载到客户端设备。 基于对规则的评估,将要存储在本地并且尚未存储在本地的数字媒体资产的请求被聚合并发送到数字媒体商店。 使用例如同步服务将数字媒体项目从数字媒体商店下载到客户端设备。

    Abstract: A device implementing a multi-user content queue may include a memory and at least one processor configured to receive, on the device, a content query and retrieve, from the memory, user account credentials corresponding to user accounts associated with the device. The at least one processor may be further configured to provide, to a server, the user account credentials and the content query. The at least one processor may be further configured to receive, from the server and based on the content query, a user account identifier of one of the user accounts and a content identifier corresponding to content in a content library of the one of the user accounts. The at least one processor may be further configured to utilize the user account identifier and the content identifier for output, by the device, of the content from the content library of the one of the user accounts.

    Abstract: A media process may receive, from a client application, a request for media information about a range of media items in a queue of a media application, the request being sent while the media application is executing. The queue includes a previous set of media items that have been played by the media application, a current item (e.g., currently playing), and a future set of items that are to be played The request may specify the range to include the current item and at least one item from the previous set and/or future set. The daemon sends a request to the media application and receives media information from the application. The received media information may include an order of media items and an identifier for each item in the range of items. The received information may be sent to the client application for displaying information about the range of items.
