Abstract

A method and apparatus are provided for managing content using a remote user interface (RUI). A method for a first RUI server to provide content to a second RUI server includes: receiving a request to provide content from a device using an RUI provided by the first RUI server; and transmitting access information of the content to the second RUI server, wherein the device is an RUI client to which RUIs from the first RUI server and the second RUI server are provided. Accordingly, since the providing and use of content between a plurality of RUI servers can be managed through RUIs in remote, every RUI client, which can receive an RUI, can control content transmission between the plurality of RUI servers.
