WIRELESS PC TO AUDIO VISUAL LINK ASSEMBLY FOR A MOTION VIDEO DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A wireless PC-to-TV Audio/Visual (A/V) link assembly for a multimedia content distribution system, the A/V link assembly comprising:
- a symbiot having a control circuit including a data storage media, a remote control interface, an audio processor, a video processor, a wireless transmitter for transmitting multimedia content, PC-interface adapted to communicate with a connectivity enabled host-PC and, through the host-PC connected to a distributed network, with the video content distribution system, wherein the storage media is encoded with an instruction set including a logical routine which upon establishment of communication between the host-PC and the symbiot determines whether dedicated content and access management software is installed on the PC and if not, the logical routine initiates an install application adapted to install the dedicated content and access management software on the host-PC;
a wireless receiver adapted to connect in functional communication with a video display and/or sound system and receive audio/video transmitted by the wireless A/V transmitter of the symbiot and pass the video content on to the display device;
a remote control having a user interface, the remote control in functional communication with the remote receiver of the wireless receiver which passes on commands through the remote control interface of the symbiot on to the content access and management software and adapted to enable a user to remotely control operation of the symbiot, the wireless receiver and the content and access management software.

Abstract
A wireless PC-to-TV Audio/Visual (A/V) link assembly for a video content distribution system is provided. The link assembly includes a symbiotic adapter, a wireless receiver, and a remote control. The symbiot has a control circuit including a data storage media, a remote control interface, a wireless A/V transmitter for transmitting video content, a PC-interface adapted to communicate with a connectivity enabled host-PC and, through the host-PC connected to a distributed network, with the video content distribution system. The storage media is encoded with an instruction set including a logical routine which upon establishment of communication between the host-PC and the symbiot determines whether dedicated content and access management software is installed on the PC and if not, the logical routine initiates an install application adapted to install the dedicated content and access management software on the host-PC. The wireless receiver is adapted to connect in functional communication with a video display and/or sound system and receive video transmitted by the wireless A/V transmitter of the symbiot and pass the video content on to the display device. The remote control has a user interface, is in functional communication with the wireless receiver and pass command signals on to the symbiot and is adapted to enable a user to remotely control operation of the symbiot, the wireless receiver and the content and access management software.
