Abstract
A system and method for generating a unified dynamic executable media playlist across connected endpoints for media play-out are disclosed. In one embodiment, endpoints are connected via a communication network. Each endpoint includes a media player and streamer module (MPSM). Further, a local media playlist is created, by the MPSM in each of the plurality of endpoints, using media residing in associated endpoints. Furthermore, the local media playlist is sent to one of the plurality of endpoints designated as a host by the MPSM in each of remaining endpoints. In addition, the unified dynamic executable media playlist is generated, by the MPSM in the host, by combining the received local media playlists and the local media playlist residing in the host. Also, the generated unified dynamic executable media playlist is sent, by the MPSM in the host, to each of the remaining endpoints for media play-out.
