• Universal Remote Control
• Virtualization

With the rapid development of home network technology, sharing multimedia content among A V devices has become easier, however, the operation of these A V devices have become more complicated. These devices display status and related information through On-Screen Display (OSD) or Liquid Crystal display Module (LCM) display, but the displays have some issues with OSD interference to reception or require users to understand all the symbols on the LCM Display. This paper proposes a universal remote control based on A V device virtualization, called V-URC (Virtualization based Universal Remote control), in order to control A V devices V-URC dynamically generates user intetfaces, which conform to the current state of devices; this not only simplifies the operation of A V devices, but also eliminates the issues caused by LCM display and OSD-based A V devices In addition, for new A V devices, V-URC can be used directly without the need to go through complicated learning programs or update of firmware.(1)
