Description

Method of providing and displaying user interface for user TV in IPTV service {METHOD FOR PROVIDING AND DISPLAYING USER INTERFACE OF USER TV IN IPTV SERVICE}

The present invention relates to a method for providing a user interface in a VOD service using an IPTV network, and more particularly, to a method for displaying a menu screen on a user's TV in an IPTV service.

With the advent of the home network era, specific protocols have been enacted to realize this. Digital television is expected to be at the center of the device for realizing such a home network. For example, IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) is a representative service that emerged from such a background. IPTV is an interactive television service provided by using a high-speed Internet network, and a TV is provided through a set-top box. Say what you connected. The information service, video content, and broadcasting of the content providing server are provided to the television receiver through the set top box. IPTV is a type of Digital Convergence in that it is a convergence of the Internet and television, and it is a general cable broadcasting that only viewers can watch programs they want to watch at a convenient time (Video On Demand, VOD). This is different from.

In the VOD service using the IPTV network, since the amount and type of contents provided by the service provider are enormous, the service provider uses a channel information file to display menu information having a tree structure composed of several steps (for example, three levels) based on the genre of the content. (Electronic Program Gude, EPG) or the like to download the user's set-top box, and then the user's TV to display the downloaded menu is common.

1 illustrates an example of a menu structure to be displayed on a user TV in an IPTV service. In the example shown, the menu structure has three stages: large category-small category-final content. Of course, the number of steps of the menu may be changed differently according to the service provider.

According to the illustrated example, the first category may be the broadest category such as home, KBS, Korean movies, home shopping, etc., and the second category may be new (NEW), popular (HOT), or various sub-genres (comic , Drama, horror, etc.), and the final three levels can be individual content. For example, large category 1 may be a Korean movie, small category 1-1 may be comics, and content 1-1-1 may be a gangster wife.

Meanwhile, a method of displaying such a menu structure on a user TV in the conventional IPTV service will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. In the following description, 'Selection' refers to a state where a cursor (indicator) is placed on the displayed menu bar, and 'Execute' refers to an execution command (for example, pressing an execution button on the remote control) while the cursor is positioned on the displayed menu bar. I shall mean that I lowered it to).

When the user turns on the set-top box and the TV, an electronic program guide (EPG) file is downloaded and stored in the set-top box from the server of the service provider, and initial screen information is extracted from the EPG file and displayed on the TV.

In general, as shown in FIG. 2, even the main and sub category menus are displayed on the initial screen, or only the main category menu is displayed. In order to view the content list in the initial screen state, it is necessary to select and execute the main category and the minor category.

For example, as shown in FIG. 3, selecting and executing subcategory 1-2 of major category 1 includes a list of contents belonging to subclasses 1-2 (1-2-1, 1-2-2, 1-2-3, Simple information of 1-2-4), for example, channel number and title, is displayed.

However, according to the conventional menu display method, the information on the content list is downloaded from the service provider's server only when the large category-small category is selected and executed. Therefore, whenever a content list is displayed, a delay occurs for a predetermined time required to download the list.

If the information to be displayed in the content list is downloaded in advance, no time delay occurs when the content list is displayed.

In addition, in the conventional menu display method, in order to reduce the time required for downloading and displaying a content list, generally only channel information (channel number and content title) for contents is displayed.

However, since channel information such as channel number and content title is difficult to identify the characteristics of the content at a glance, the user has to move to the detail screen by selecting and executing the content to view the details of the content. There was this.

If the list of contents (Figure 3) is displayed together with the minimum channel information for each content as well as the image or detailed text information of the contents, the characteristics of the contents can be recognized at a glance without going to the details screen of the individual contents. Could be.

The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and it is a technical problem to make it possible to effectively display a content list without time delay.

In addition, it is a technical problem to display a content image or detailed text information together with the content list when displaying the content list.

In order to solve the above technical problem, in the present invention, a pre thumbnail management system 500 connected to the Internet network 300 is provided, and a pre thumbnail corresponding to the content before the user interface is displayed on the TV 100 of the user.
