Transmission apparatus, transmission method, and transmission system

Abstract

A transmission apparatus is configured to transmit identification information for referring to a content and/or a sub directory included in a directory designated by a receiving apparatus to the receiving apparatus via a network. The transmission apparatus includes a loading unit configured to load a content, a generation unit configured to generate identification information for referring to a new directory for referring to the content loaded by the loading unit so that the new directory is referred to as a sub directory included in the directory designated by the receiving apparatus, an addition unit configured to add the identification information generated by the generation unit to the content information included in the designated directory, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the content information to which the identification information generated by the generation unit has been added by the addition unit to the receiving apparatus

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A transmission apparatus comprising:
 a loading unit configured to load a content;   a generation unit configured to generate identification information for referring to a new directory for referring to the content loaded by the loading unit so that the new directory is referred to as a sub directory included in a directory designated by a receiving apparatus;   an addition unit configured, after the loading unit has loaded the content and if the directory has been designated by the receiving apparatus, to add the identification information generated by the generation unit to a content information included in the designated directory; and   a transmission unit configured to transmit the content information to which the identification information generated by the generation unit has been added by the addition unit to the receiving apparatus.
