Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A data processing method, applied in an electronic device which comprises a codec, at least two audio output devices, an identification module, a communication module and at least two players, the method comprising: decoding, by the at least two players, at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data to generate at least two channels of code streams corresponding to the at least two paths of multi-media data when the electronic device is in an operating state; assigning, by the identification module, an identifier to each of the at least two channels of code streams and transmitting at least two identifiers to the communication module, the at least two identifiers being provided to the codec such that the codec can receive the at least two channels of code streams based on the at least two identifiers; establishing, by the codec, a channel corresponding to each of the at least two channels of code streams based on the at least two identifiers, such that each channel of code stream can be output to one of the at least two audio output devices via its corresponding channel and prior to the at least two players decoding at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data: obtaining, by a data processing module in the electronic device, at least two paths of multi-media data containing audio data; coding, by the data processing module, the at least two paths of multi-media data based on a predetermined coding rule to obtain the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data; and transmitting the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data to the at least two players.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data processing module in the electronic device obtaining at least two paths of multi-media data containing audio data comprises: obtaining, by the data processing module in the electronic device, the at least two paths of multi-media data containing audio data from at least one storage unit in the electronic device; or obtaining, by the data processing module in the electronic device, the at least 5 two paths of multi-media data containing audio data from a data transceiving interface in the electronic device, wherein the data transceiving interface is an interface module for connecting to a network or another device.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the at least two players decoding at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data to generate at least two channels of code streams corresponding to the at least two paths of multi-media data comprises: obtaining, by the at least two players, the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data; decoding, by the at least two players, the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data based on a predetermined decoding rule corresponding to the predetermined coding rule to obtain the at least two channels of code streams corresponding to the at least two paths of multi-media data.

4

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the at least two players decoding the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data based on a predetermined decoding rule corresponding to the predetermined coding rule to obtain the at least two channels of code streams corresponding to the at least two paths of multi-media data comprises: determining, for each of the at least two players, one of the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data based on a matching relationship between the coded multi-media data and the players; and decoding, by each player, its corresponding path of coded multi-media data containing audio data based on the predetermined decoding rule corresponding to the predetermined coding rule to obtain a corresponding channel of code stream.

5

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein each player decoding its corresponding path of coded multi-media data containing audio data based on the predetermined decoding rule corresponding to the predetermined coding rule to obtain a corresponding channel of code stream comprises: decoding, by using a decoding package in each player, its corresponding path of coded multi-media data containing audio data based on the predetermined decoding rule corresponding to the predetermined coding rule to obtain compressed multi-media data containing audio data; and automatically restoring the compressed multi-media data containing audio data to generate the corresponding channel of code stream.

6

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the identification module assigning an identifier to each of the at least two channels of code streams comprises: setting, by the identification module, an identifier at a predetermined location in each of the at least two channels of code streams, wherein the identifier is unique to the channel of code stream.

7

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein setting an identifier at a predetermined location in each of the at least two channels of code streams comprises: setting a numerical or alphabetic identifier at the front or back end of each of the at least two channels of code streams.

8

8. An electronic device, comprising: at least two players each containing a decoding package for decoding a code file; an identification module connected to the players; a communication module connected to the identification module; a codec connected to the communication module; and at least two audio output devices each connected to the codec; wherein the at least two players decode at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data to generate at least two channels of code streams corresponding to the at least two paths of multi-media data when the electronic device is in an operating state; the identification module assigns an identifier to each of the at least two channels of code streams and transmits at least two identifiers to the communication module, the at least two identifiers being provided to the codec such that the codec can receive the at least two channels of code streams based on the at least two identifiers; the codec establishes a channel corresponding to each of the at least two channels of code streams based on the at least two identifiers, such that each channel of code stream can be output to one of the at least two audio output devices via its corresponding channel; and a data processing module configured to obtain at least two paths of multi-media 10 data containing audio data, to code the at least two paths of multi-media data based on a predetermined coding rule to obtain the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data, and to transmit the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data to the at least two players, before the at least two players decode the at least two paths of coded multi-media data containing audio data.
