METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONFIGURING SOFTWARE RESOURCES FOR PLAYING NETWORK PROGRAMS
First Claim
1. A method for configuring software resource a playing apparatus, wherein said software resource is used for playing a network program, comprising the steps of:
- a) transmitting a request for downloading said network program to a network server, said request including the configuration information of local software resource;
b) receiving said network programs and software resource transmitted by said network server, said received software resource including software resource that are required for playing said network program but are locally absent; and
c) combining the received software resource with said local software resource for playing said program.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method and apparatus for configuring software resource for playing network programs. A request for downloading network programs transmitted by a user terminal to a network server includes the configuration information of software resources at the user terminal. After comparing and balancing the software resources required for playing network programs and the software resources at the user terminal, the network server transmits to the user terminal the software resource that is required for playing programs but are absent at the user terminal. The user terminal combines the received software resource with the local software resources to play the downloaded network programs. The user terminal can sufficiently configure the software resources required for playing network programs only by attachedly transmit the configuration information of software resources that the user terminal has when transmitting a request for downloading network programs.
