An Improved System and Method for Handling Contents of Multiple Formats

FIELD OF INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to an improved system and method for handling contents of multiple formats present in a computing device; and more particularly, for executing multiple contents of different formats of a playlist in a user preferred sequence. This invention provides for an improved system and method aimed at managing, handling and sharing contents of multiple formats present in the user' s computing device in a single and less space consuming platform seamlessly.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The paradigm of the digital era is constantly evolving with the technological advances in the information technology. In the past few years, the approach for accessing information, creating content and collating it has witnessed a wide shift. The digital technology allows a user to create and collate data through various sources. The user of the computing device may then save the data in various formats for the purpose of reference and re-use when needed. The information and data is stored in the Random Access Memory (RAM) of the computing device in various formats of different sizes which may or may not be related to each other. Thus, a single computing device may carry or save data in multiple formats of varying size existing at different locations. At times, files is stored in multiple copies at separate locations leading to multiplicity of the same files and thus causing space constraint on the hard drive of the computing device. Therefore, immense efforts are made by the user and huge amount of storage space is consumed in the computing device in storing the relevant files and various locations are to be searched to access it. [0003] The computing device may have plurality of readable formats that allows the device to perform various features and functions using an Application Programme Interphase (API). Whenever, the user intends to view any files saved at any location, the user is required to switch from one location to the other. Also, when the user is required to run files in different formats, then the user will have to open the respective support format and execute them one after another.

[0004] Various systems and methods exist that attempt to manage and deliver the contents of the computing device as per the user requirement. For example, mobile cloud platform is used for context based content delivery to the mobile terminal device.

[0005] US Patent Application 13/663,476 discloses a mobile device with an ability for user/consumer to get contextual information, functionalities and a real-time communication between dynamic networks of the user with the help of cloud server based platform. It further discloses a cloud platform which runs a context- awareness engine that automatically detects the user context and delivers appropriate content through the application to the user's mobile phone. [0006] Further, US Patent Application 14/326,146 discloses a method and system through which various forms of contents may be consumed, managed, converted, repurposed, and delivery to content-accessing users, with access to such content via different devices. [0007] In another US patent application 13/705,876 discloses a method for managing files in a mobile device. It includes i) calling a container configuration mode, ii) displaying a container view comprising a plurality of containers, iii) receiving a selection corresponding to a first content file, and iv) sharing information corresponding to the first content file with an application program. [0008] However, none of the above cited prior art discloses a system and method of handling contents of multiple formats and executing them in a preferred sequence and displaying them in a single seamlessly accessible platform. Moreover, none of the prior art cited discloses an invention which allows the user to assemble the data irrespective of format, size and its location and display them on a single platform. Furthermore, none of the prior art enables the user to create and share the playlist comprising plurality of contents wherein, the contents are of different formats. Further, none of the prior arts allows the user to execute the contents of the playlist wherein, the contents of the playlist are executed in a sequence organized by the user. Furthermore, none of the prior arts discloses an invention to allow the user to access the data of various formats at a single location without consuming extra and multiple file space locations leading to space constraint. Also, none of the prior arts allows user to build context and relationships between different files without moving them to the same location. Also, none of the prior arts considers webpage as a content source and manages as a reference note within other files.

[0009] Thus, the prior arts fail to provide a system and method whereby, the user execute contents of a playlist relating to different application programming interface without switching to its original location in a seamless manner without eating up extra memory space. Further, the prior arts also fail to provide a system and method whereby, the user can share a bunch of files and content sources (like web links) while maintaining the context/relationships between the files to an another user and further allowing the another user to edit the content of the playlist.

[0010] However, despite the aforesaid systems/methods, a need is felt for more effective, competent, specific, and efficient computing device platform which can be used to manage contents of multiple formats present in the user's computing device and delivering the contents through a single platform. [0011] However, a need also exists to solve the abovementioned problems in the existing art by providing a format agnostic solution that seamlessly drives the user through the content and executes the information effectively without interruptions.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

[0012] It is the object of the present invention to provide an improved method and system which can be used to manage, handle and share contents of multiple formats present in the user's computing device/s and deliver the contents on a single platform.

[0013] Further, another object of the present invention is to provide an improved system and method for executing multiple files of the computing device related to multiple formats on an integrated tool with reduced consumption of space of hardware/computing device.

[0014] These and other advantages of the present invention will become readily apparent from the following detailed description read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

Further, the playlist prepared by one user can be shared to another user who can edit the content of the play lists. [0049] A schematic representation of a system where the present invention may be implemented is illustrated in Figure 1(a). In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a user (100a) accesses internet (lOOe) and attempts to perform improved method for handling contents of multiple formats using an improved system 100.

[0050] The improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats comprises three components which are an input unit (100b), a collection unit (100c) and an executable unit (lOOd). [0051] The input unit (100b) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats configured to receive an information from the user (100a), wherein the information includes creation of the playlist, playing of the playlist, editing in the playlist and sharing of the playlist. Each playlist comprises of multiple files each having plurality of content wherein the contents are present in different formats. The input unit (100b) may be a display screen of the mobile device through which the user (100a) will provide the information to the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats.

[0052] The collection unit (100c) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats comprises plurality of databases present in the user computing device as well as database present in cloud server as well as world wide web. The collection unit (100c) may be a database which stores all the information present in the user computing device and the cloud server as well as world wide web. [0053] The collection unit (100c) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats includes two databases which are online collection database (100 c") and offline collection database (100 c'). The user (100a) may add contents from the offline collection database (100 c') as well as from the online collection database (100 c"). The collection unit (100c) herein, acts as a content repository which acts as a source for the contents of the playlist.

[0054] The executable unit (lOOd) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats is configured to execute atleast one playlist when information is received on the input unit by the user (100a). The files in the playlist establishes a link with the file in its original location thereby, allowing the user (100a) to switch directly from one source in the collection unit (100c) to another link. The link may be in the form of a soft link/symbolic link which contains a path name, which is stored in the allocated collection unit (100c). The executable unit (lOOd) determines the position of each file and stores information with respect to the same.

[0055] The executable unit (lOOd) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats may be a processor of the computing device/system which is configured to execute atleast one playlist when information is received on the input unit (100b) by the user (100a).

[0056]The collection unit (100c) and executable unit (lOOd) are connected through a breadcrumb route to the content file source (in most cases) and it retraces the path to the content file source when the user (100a) seeks to consume the particular content file. Once the playlist of breadcrumb route links are ready and the user (100a) wants to consume the content files available in the playlist, the user (100a) can swipe to move to next link. [0057] Figure 1(b) represents the collection unit (100c) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats which includes two collection units wherein, one collection unit is the offline collection database (100c') and other is the online collection database (100c"). The offline collection database (100c') includes but is not limited to files already saved and present in the computing device wherein, the files may be of same or different formats. The online collection database (100c") includes but is not limited to files accessible by the user through various online search engines, wherein the files are of same or different formats.

[0058] Figure 2(a) is a flowchart illustrating the method 100' for creation of playlist which will be used in the improved method for handling contents of multiple formats using the present system. The method 100' includes particular steps described in a particular order of execution. However, other methods respectively including other steps, and/or omitting one or more of the depicted steps, and/or proceeding in other orders of execution may also be used in accordance with the present teachings. Therefore, the method 100' is illustrative and non-limiting with respect to the operations contemplated by the present teachings. The method 100' is described with reference to a mobile device. However, the method may be practiced with other computing device, as well such as tablets, computer etc.

[0059] At step 101, the user (100a) initiates the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats and the method for creation of new playlist will start. Further, at step 103, the user (100a) attempts to login through the input unit (100b) of the improved system (100).

[0060] At step 105, the user creates a playlist using the input unit (100b) and the information of the playlist will be stored in the collection unit (100c). In one instance and at step 107, the improved system (100) offers various options to the user such as creation of a blank playlist 107(a), using a templet 107(b) which is available in the collection unit (100c) or import of a content 107 (c) from either offline database (100c') or online collection database(100c"). [0061] Thus, at step 109, a playlist will be created by the user (100a) will be displayed on the input unit (100b) and will be stored in the collection unit (100c) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats.

[0062] Thereafter, at step 111, the user (100a) will add title and cover image of playlist which will be displayed on the display screen and will be stored in the collection unit (100c) of the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats.

[0063] Further, at step 113, the user (100a) adds contents to the playlist through various sources such as any website, device, google drive etc. using the offline collection database (100c') and online collection database (100c"). [0064] The offline collection database(lOOc') includes but is not limited to files already saved in the mobile device wherein, the files are of same or different formats such as images 113(a), video 113(b), PPTs, PDF, XLSs, DOCs 113(a'), Custom dynamic slides 113(b') and application link 113(c'). The online collection database(100c") includes but is not limited to files accessible by the user through various online search engines 113(c), wherein the files are of same or different formats. The collection unit (100c) herein, acts as a content repository which acts as a source for the contents of the playlist.

[0065] Finally, at steps 115-117, after creation of the playlist, the user saves the playlist to 'My Playlist' and then synchronise the playlist with the Google drive/application server/collection unit.

[0066] Fig. 1(b) is a flowchart illustrating the improved method 100" for handling contents of multiple formats using the present system. The method 100" includes particular steps described in a particular order of execution. However, other methods respectively including other steps, and/or omitting one or more of the depicted steps, and/or proceeding in other orders of execution may also be used in accordance with the present teachings. Therefore, the method 100" is illustrative and non-limiting with respect to the operations contemplated by the present teachings. The method 100" is described with reference to a mobile device. However, the method may be practiced with other device, as well.

[0067] At steps 116 and 117, the user (100a) will start the improved system 100 for handling contents of multiple formats present in the mobile device and synchronise the playlist with the Google drive/application server/collection unit.

[0068] In one instance and at step 121, the playlist synchronised with Google Drive/ App server/collection unit can be made as a public playlist and will be available for other users. Further, at step 123, the user will add the playlist to the "Public Playlists" using the collection unit (100c) and the Public Playlists will be available for other users. A public playlist may have plurality of playlists with multiple contents added by the first/primary user. A public playlist allows the secondary user/other user to access the same in a sequence organized by a primary user. Then, at step 125, any other user can access the "Public playlists" using the improved system (100) for handling contents of multiple formats present in the mobile device.

[0069] As a part of the improved method for handling contents of multiple formats and at steps 127(a) - 127 (c), any user can import the Public playlist, add the Public playlist to "My playlist" and share the Public Playlist to other user using the improved system for handling contents of multiple formats as present in the mobile device

[0070] In other instance and at step 129, the user (100a) can share the playlist to other user/s through various applications/website. Further, after sharing of the playlist, any user with the link generated can play the playlist and edit the playlist. [0071] At step 131, when information is received by the user (100a) for playing a playlist a synchronised playlist is played in the preferred sequence as desired by the user and after access of 'public playlists' . The playlist which is played may have same and/or different formats. The improved system 100 for handling contents of multiple formats also provides navigation 133(a) and tools 133(b).
