Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To synchronize playback among systems in a multimedia system. SOLUTION: In the system 100, one or more digital audio systems 102, such as, a digital audio workstation, and one or more digital video systems, such as a video server, are interconnected through a computer network. A communication protocol among the systems using the computer network enables the systems to play back in synchronization. The communication protocol defines several states for connections between systems. In particular, two systems may be disconnected, connected and unlinked or connected and linked. Each system transitions through defined state changes that are caused by a sequence of commands in the communication protocol, called a play start sequence, to initiate synchronized playback.
