DUAL PROCESSOR BASED DIGITAL MEDIA PLAYER ARCHITECTURE WITH NETWORK SUPPORT
First Claim
1. In a computing environment, a system for accessing data across a network, the system comprising:
- a first processor configured to consume data;
a second processor coupled to the first processor via a physical media storage interface such that the first processor interfaces with the second processor as if the second processor were a physical media storage device, and wherein the second processor is connectable via a network interface to a physical media storage device so as to be able to provide data from the physical media storage device to the first processor; and
a computer readable medium comprising computer executable instructions configured to compensate for at least one of time latencies or network connection problems caused by the network interface between the second processor and the physical media storage device.

Abstract
A system for accessing data across a network. The system includes a first processor configured to consume data. A second processor is connected to the first processor via a physical media storage interface. As such, the first processor interfaces with the second processor as if the second processor were a physical media storage device. The second processor is connectable via a network interface to a physical media storage device so as to be able to provide data from the physical media storage device to the first processor. The system includes a computer readable medium including computer executable instructions configured to compensate for at least one of time latencies or network connection problems caused by the network interface between the second processor and the physical media storage device.

16. In a computing environment, a method for accessing data across a network, the method comprising:
-
receiving at a first processor, data from a second processor, wherein the data is received from the second processor across a physical media storage interface, further wherein the second processor retrieves the data across a network interface from a physical media storage device; and compensating for at least one of time latencies or network connection problems caused by the network interface between the second processor and the physical media storage device. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. In a computing environment, a method for providing data from a network connected physical media storage device, the method comprising:
-
at a first processor, receiving data from the physical media storage device across the network; providing the data received from the physical media storage device to a second processor across a physical media storage interface; and compensating for at least one of time latencies or network connection problems caused by a network interface between the first processor and the physical media storage device.
