DMR supports seek (SEEK-01 SEEK-05 SEEK-10 SEEK-15)
This test verifies the digital media renderer (DMR) supports time-seek operations (SEEK-01), advertises time-seek capabilities in the CurrentTransportActions variable (SEEK-05), implements time-seek for media resources which support time-range requests (SEEK-10), and resumes playback at the target playtime when it receives a Seek() action (SEEK-15), as specified below.
SEEK-01 (Applies to A/V DMR and audio DMR)
A DMR device must support seek operations using the method known as "controller-time seeking" defined in the DLNA Guidelines. Using this method, a controller sends Seek() actions with playtime values to the DMR.
SEEK-05 (Applies to A/V DMR and audio DMR)
As defined in the DLNA Guidelines, a DMR device that supports controller-time seeking must include the keywords "Seek" and "X_DLNA_SeekTime" in the CurrentTransportActions state variable.
These keywords must be listed in the state variable while the DMR is in the PLAYING state or in the PAUSED_PLAYBACK state. This requirement does not specify if seek operations are available when the DMR is in the STOPPED state.
SEEK-10 (Applies to A/V DMR and audio DMR)
A DMR device must implement controller-time seek at least for the following types of media resources:
- A/V or audio media resources for which a media server or push controller indicates support for time-range requests (a DLNA.ORG_OP value of 10 or 11 indicates a resource for which the media server or push controller supports time-range requests)
A DMR device should implement controller-time seek for media resources beyond the type indicated in this requirement.
SEEK-15 (Applies to A/V DMR and audio DMR)
- If a DMR is in the PLAYING state and receives a Seek() action with a valid target playtime, the DMR must resume playback from the target playtime.
If a DMR is in the PAUSED_PLAYBACK state and receives a Seek() action with a valid target playtime, the DMR must resume playback from the target playtime reposition the playback point to the received target value. However, the DMR must remain in the PAUSED_PLAYBACK state.
