Abstract

Appropriate control is performed when communication is performed between a plurality of information processing devices. An information processing device performs real-time image transmission with another information processing device according to a Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast specification. The information processing device includes a control unit. The control unit performs control such that setting request information for performing a setting related to the real-time image transmission is received from the other information processing device via an access point. The control unit performs control such that a setting request for performing the setting based on the setting request information is transmitted to the other information processing device through direct communication.

Claims (9)

1. An information processing device, comprising:

circuitry configured to perform control such that, under a condition that real-time image transmission is performed between a sink device and a plurality of source devices, any one of the plurality of source devices is settable to a communication mode of an image transmission mode in which the sink device and the source devices are connected, and other source devices which are different from the one of the plurality of the source devices are settable in a standby mode in which the sink device and the other source devices are connected via an access point.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the circuitry is configured to perform control such that an image indicating the plurality of source devices is displayed on a user interface and the communication mode is set in the one of the plurality of source devices based on an manipulation input to the user interface.

3. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein

the circuitry is configured to perform control such that the communication mode is set in the one of the plurality of source devices based on a predetermined order.

4. An information processing system, comprising:

a sink device configured to perform real-time image transmission with a plurality of source devices and perform control such that a setting request information for causing at least one of the plurality of source devices to perform a setting related to the real-time image transmission is transmitted to the at least one of the plurality of source devices via an access point, and a setting request for performing the setting based on the setting request information is received from the at least one of the plurality of source devices; and

a control device configured to perform control such that, under a condition that the real-time image transmission is performed between the sink device and the plurality of source devices, any one of the plurality of source devices is settable to a communication mode of an image transmission mode in which the sink device and the source devices are connected, and other source devices which are different from the one of the plurality of the source devices are settable in a standby mode in which the sink device and the other source devices are connected via the access point.
