For example, as shown in figure 11, are " program gradings " corresponding to the title of the application 72 of icon 321, and therefore in title display part 322, show " program grading ".Be that the program of television broadcasting and having provides about the information of audience ratings grading or programs recommended function corresponding to the application 72 of icon 321, and therefore describe " recommend programs! ) " be presented at and describe in the display part 323.Distribution is " allocator A (DISTRIBUTORA) " corresponding to the allocator of the application 72 of icon 321, and therefore shows " allocator A " in supplier display part 324.Allocator A uses supplier 22.
The Status icons 325 that shows when the state of using 72 changes is displayed in the Status icons display part 304.As mentioned above, Status icons 325 comprises when the new icon " new " that shows when using 72 that adds, when upgrade the icon " end (END) " that the icon that shows when using 72 " upgrades (UPDATE) " and shows when being finished by the service provision of using 72.When not having the application 72 of state variation, there is not Status icons 325 to be presented in the Status icons display part 304.
Under the situation of registered application 72, registered icon 326 is displayed in the login state display part 305.The user can register the application of liking 72.By this registration, as described below, when selecting to be scheduled to use 72, can show registered application 72 with selected application 72.By details as described below, refer again to initial screen shown in Figure 10, if select icon " (SERVICECAST) delivered in service ", then show registered application 72.
Activate registered application 72 simultaneously, and use 72 and carry out processing individually.Simultaneously, if execution is by the processing of a plurality of application 72 simultaneously, mainly, by network 11 accessed content servers 13 and the processing of obtaining and show amount of information content-data 131, may depend on that then the number of processing is applied to burden on the television receiver 14.Specifically, because having the limit (Fig. 6) aspect the capacity of the SDRAM230 of interim memory of content data 131 grades, so can not restrictedly store the content-data 131 by a plurality of application 72.
Therefore, preferably limit the number of the application 72 that can register.For example, the number of the application 72 that can register can be limited to 5, and wants to register the 6th when using 72 as the user, can show error message etc.In addition, for example, when the number of the application 72 that can register was limited to 5, maximum showed five registered icons 326 in login state display part 305.
The registration/unregistered be different for each television receiver 14.For this reason, about the information of registered applications 72, for example, the ID etc. that is used for recognizing registered applications 72 is stored in television receiver 14 sides.When television receiver 14 obtains list of application 71, with reference to the definite application 72 of registering of the information of canned data and description in list of application 71, and in login state display part 305, show registered icon 326.
In the middle of the information of reference Figure 11 description, in list of application 71, be described in the information that shows in each the display part part except login state display part 305 and so on.Figure 12 is the example of the information described in list of application 71 and about an example of using 72 information.
In list of application 71, use 72 for each, description is used 72 " ID " about being used for identification, " image (IMAGE) " of the icon that in icon display part 302, shows, use 72 " title (NAME) ", about by 72 services that provide of application " describing (DESCRIPTION) ", the information (data) of " state (STATE) " that use 72 " supplier (PROVIDER) " and application 72 is provided.
" ID " that is used for identification application 72 can be that 72 URL is used in above-mentioned management therein.In addition, when television receiver 14 determined whether registered application 72, the ID that manages in television receiver 14 sides was the ID that describes in list of application 71.
" image " of the icon that shows in icon display part 302 can be the view data of icon, also can be the URL of above-mentioned wherein control chart target view data.Under the situation of URL, by to using tabulation 71 and being connected to the view data of obtaining icon of the URL that in list of application 71, describes.
By the management of the list of application 71 on application server 12 sides, can obtain following advantage.At first, when new registration used 72 in list of application 71, the custodian of Management Application Server 12 (in Fig. 2, the ISP 21) can check and use 72.By supervisory check, for example, can prevent from registering the malice (ill-intended) that comprises virus and use 72.Therefore, can increase the fail safe of the application 72 that offers user's 24 sides (television receiver 14 sides).
List of application 71 is offered television receiver 14, and user's side is presented in the application 72 that television receiver 14 only will be registered in the list of application 71 that provides.For this reason, if upgrade list of application 71, then can be in the processing of television receiver 14 sides execution based on the list of application 71 that has upgraded.For example, if there is the application 72 of new registration, then the application 72 of new registration can be offered user's side, and leave the user's (for example, not carrying out renewal) on television receiver 14 sides alone.
That is to say that the application 72 that offers user's side can freely be arranged on custodian's side, and can be from the problematic application 72 of list of application 71 deletions.For this reason, can will use 72 by supervisory accurate management and be provided to user's side.In other words, can on ISP 21, freely arrange and use supplier 22, therefore and can remove the contract with problematic application supplier 22, and can be from the information of list of application 71 deletions about the application 72 that provided by corresponding application supplier 22.For this reason, can will use 72 by accurate management of the ISP 21 and offer user's 24 sides.
Television receiver 14 access application server 12, and keep URL to be used for obtaining list of application 71.
We turn back to the description about initial screen shown in Figure 10 now.When initial screen shown in Figure 10 is displayed on the display floater 221, if the knob down 271-2 (Figure 10) of user's remote controller 251 then switches to screen screen shown in Figure 13.
Screen example shown in Figure 13 and screen example shown in Figure 10 are compared, though under the situation of screen shown in Figure 10 (initial screen), cursor 311 is positioned on the icon of the application 72 of representing called after " news (NEWS) ", but under the situation of screen shown in Figure 13, cursor 311 is positioned on the icon of application 72 of called after " tell the fortune (FORTUNE-TELLING) ".
With reference to Figure 10, the icon of the application 72 of called after " fortune-telling " is positioned at two icons under the icon of application 72 of called after " news ".When the knob down 271-2 twice of user's remote controller 251, or the knob down 271-2 that continues remote controller 251 as the user is when cursor 311 moves two icons, the icon of two icons under cursor 311 is moved down into and is positioned at.
In this case, because the fixed-site of cursor 311, so in fact, the icon that in icon display part 302, shows two icons that move up.By this way, execution is corresponding to the processing of twice operation of the knob down 271-2 of remote controller 251.
As shown in figure 13, be arranged in the state on the icon of application 72 of called after " fortune-telling " at cursor 311, if remote controller 251 button 273 is set, then screen becomes screen shown in Figure 14.
To provide a description for screen shown in Figure 14.In screen shown in Figure 14, thereby show that setting up screen 351 is superimposed upon on the screen shown in Figure 13.In setting up screen 351, as option, display operation " is all used and is removed (ALLAPPLICATION RELEASE) " with the project 361 of removing whole application 72 of registering, with the project 362 " application choice (APPLICATION SELECTION) " of operation with the application 72 of activation selection, operation " is used registration (APPLICATION REGISTRATION) " with the project 363 of the application 72 that registration is selected, operation is to check that the project 364 of description of carrying out the application 72 of which processing about the application of selecting 72 " is used and described (APPLICATIONDESCRIPTION) " and operation selects the project 365 of screen 351 " to close (CLOSE) " to close.
" select use 72 " is the application 72 of the icon that is located thereon corresponding to cursor 311, and in screen example shown in Figure 14, it is the application 72 of called after " fortune-telling ".
Refer again to the screen example of Figure 13, because the application 72 of unregistered called after " fortune-telling ", so in login state display part 305, do not show the icon of expression registration.When selecting this application 72, if option 363 (Figure 14) " is used registration ", then registration is corresponding uses 72.
Use 72 if registered, then when next showing initial screen, then in login state display part 305, show the icon of indication registration.In addition, if use 72 registeredly, then will use 72 ID and be stored in the television receiver 14.In registration, when registering the application 72 of predetermined number, do not carry out registration, and show error message etc.
When carrying out registration, though do not illustrate, can show the screen of confirming whether to carry out registration for the user.
Turn back to the description for the screen example of Figure 14, if option 364 " is used and described ", then the screen of display floater 221 switches to use and describes screen 371, as shown in figure 15.Use to describe that screen 371 provides the zone 381 of the title of display application 72 therein, the zone 382 and showing therein of the supplier's of display application 72 title is used for using the zone 383 of the telephone number of 72 inquiry therein.
Use describing screen 371 also provides and shows therein and make and to user's image (for example will serve (it is by offering the user's according to the processing of using 72) imaging, the zone 385 of the text of the content of zone 384 enlarged image of the icon that in icon display part 302, shows) and wherein demonstration description service (it is by offering the user's according to the processing of using 72).
Use to describe screen 371 also provide operation to activate web browser and display application 72 the contact person or the button 386 of support information and operation to turn back to screen shown in Figure 14, just, show the button 387 of the screen of setting up screen 351 thereon.
The user can check that this application describes screen 371 to recognize by the content that 72 services that provide are provided.
Next, will be for providing a description when the screen that activates from screen shown in Figure 13 or screen shown in Figure 14 when using 72.Demonstration screen shown in Figure 13 when cursor 311 is positioned on the icon of application 72 of indication called after " fortune-tellings ".Be arranged in the state of indicating predetermined application 72 at cursor 311, if the affirmation button 272 (Figure 10) of remote controller 251, then the screen of display floater 221 switches to screen shown in Figure 16.
As shown in figure 14, be positioned at indication at cursor 311 and use on the icon of 72 " fortune-telling ", and demonstration sets up in the state of screen 351, if operation item 362 " application choice ", then the screen of display floater 221 switches to screen shown in Figure 16.
Use 72 if activate, then obtain the data of the main body of application 72 from application server 12.In this case, when making the instruction that activates application 72, carry out the visit of application server 12, and obtain the data (program etc.) of the main body of application 72.When obtaining, obtain the data of the application 72 of instruction activity based on the ID of the application of in list of application 71, describing 72.
To provide a description for screen shown in Figure 16.In screen shown in Figure 16, the left side becomes the program viewing area 401 of the program that shows television broadcasting therein, and the right side becomes the application viewing area 402 of the service that wherein shows a plurality of application 72.By this way, with the program of television broadcasting and by use 72 provide information of same the time offer the user.The user can check by 72 information of wanting that provide of application, appreciates the program of television broadcasting simultaneously.
In screen example shown in Figure 16, in using viewing area 402, show by three 72 information that provide are provided.In using viewing area 402, in upper area 411, by the application 72 demonstration information that are called as service channel (SERVICE CHANNEL) (application 72 of describing called after " service channel " with corresponding to using 72-1) hereinafter.In central region 412, the application 72 demonstration information of being told the fortune by called after (application 72 of describing called after " fortune-tellings " with corresponding to application 72-2) hereinafter.At lower area 413, by the application 72 demonstration information of called after news (application 72 that shows called after " news " with corresponding to using 72-3) hereinafter.
The application 72 of demonstration information comprises application 72 and the selected application 72 of registration in using viewing area 402.As mentioned above, be configured to make the application 72 that the user can the registered in advance predetermined number.Even select not have the application 72 of registration, in using viewing area 402, show the application 72 of being registered by the user with the application 72 that does not have registration.
For example, with reference to Figure 13, in screen shown in Figure 16, the application 72-2 that is called as fortune-telling is the application 72 that does not have registration.Even select not have the application 72-2 of registration, with using 72-2 shows registration in using viewing area 402 application 72-1 and 72-3.
The application 72 that shows in using viewing area 402 is operated dividually.For example, the application 72-3 that is provided for the service that news shows is connected to content server 13 with the content-data 131 that obtains news and is updated in the news (text) that the sequential of using 72-3 shows in zone 413 is set.
Though do not show, the application 72 of operation registration, and the application 72-1 that shows in using viewing area 402 is to 72-3.For example, when five of registrations use 72, comprise these five use 72 and six of selected unregistered application 72 use 72 and carry out and handle, no matter and whether they are presented at and use in the viewing area 402.Use 72-3 and be connected to content server 13 to obtain news, and no matter whether it is presented at use in the viewing area 402.
By this way, the information of the application 72 of update displayed in using viewing area 402, no matter and whether make user's instruction, are application 72 of suitably lastest imformation as long as each uses 72.Therefore, the user can obtain new information and not feel trouble.
As mentioned above, when one of instruction activation uses 72, the application 72 of activation instruction activation simultaneously and the application 72 of registering.Here, activate the visit that refers to execution application server 12 simultaneously and use 72 data subject to obtain, carry out processing and during this processing, if necessary, proceed to the connection of content server 13 to obtain content-data 131 based on the application 72 of obtaining.
As mentioned above, in this embodiment, when the instruction activation uses 72, obtain the data about using 72.Therefore, do not need to be positioned on the television receiver 14 about using 72 data, and therefore can reduce the memory space of distributing to about the SDRAM 230 (Fig. 7) that uses 72 data.
Refer again to Figure 16, if the last button 271-1 of remote controller 251, then the application 72-1 that shows in using viewing area 402 moves up to 72-3, and shows as not being presented in the application viewing area 402 and being arranged on the application 72-4 that uses the application 72 under the 72-3 in fact.As a result, as shown in figure 17, show wherein in regional 411, to show according to the information of using 72-2, in zone 412, show the information according to application 72-3, and in zone 413, show the screen according to the information of using 72-4.In the following description, will continue describe to use 72-4 is situation corresponding to the application 72 of called after " photo friend (PHOTO FRIEND) ".
When the knob down 271-2 of remote controller 251, use 72-1 and move down to 72-3, and show as being presented at and use application 72-5 in the viewing area 402 and that be arranged on the application 72 on the application 72-1 in fact.As a result, as shown in figure 18, show wherein in regional 411, to show according to the information of using 72-5, in zone 412, show the information according to application 72-1, and in zone 413, show the screen according to the information of using 72-2.In the following description, will continue describe to use 72-5 is situation corresponding to the application 72 of called after " cuisines information (GOURMET INFORMATION) ".
As mentioned above, arrange the application 72 of parallel work-flow in fact in vertical direction, switch in the application 72 of using demonstration in the viewing area 402 according to the last button 271-1 of remote controller 251 or the mode of operation of knob down 271-2.
Screen shown in Figure 16 to 18 is called as normal mode.In normal mode, if the affirmation button 272 of remote controller 251 then switches to pattern and focuses on the focusing mode that is arranged in middle application 72 (application 72 of 412 demonstration information in the zone) at that time therein.
For example, in screen shown in Figure 16, show that in the zone 412 of using viewing area 402 application 72 of information is the application 72-2 of called after " fortune-telling ".In this state, if the affirmation button 272 of remote controller 251 then switches to screen the screen that wherein focuses on the focusing mode of using 72-2.
Figure 19 is illustrated in the example of the screen in the focusing mode.In focusing mode, the zone 411 and 413 of using viewing area 402 is shown as secretly.In other words, only be shown as brighter than other zones in the zone 412 at the middle part of using viewing area 402.In focusing mode, whether the application 72 of registration and selected application 72 parallel work-flows are no matter and use 72 and be displayed on and use in the viewing area 402.
In focusing mode, be similar to normal mode, if last button 271-1 or the knob down 271-2 of remote controller 251, then the application 72 that shows in using viewing area 402 is slided up or down and is shown.Slide by this, switch in the application 72 that shows in the zone 412, and the application 72 of therefore going back switching focusing.Therefore, in focusing mode, the user can be so that the application of expectation 72 focuses on.
When pattern switches to focusing mode, show based on the button of the application 72 that focuses on etc.For example, with reference to Figure 19, when the application 72 that shows in zone 412 was application 72-2 " fortune-telling ", the Show Button 431 in focusing mode " was read luck tendency (READ FORTUNE) ".Also display operation returns the button of (RETURN) to turn back to being called as of normal mode.
The left button 271-3 of user's remote controller 251 or right button 271-4 are to select button 431 or button 432.After having selected button 431 or button 432, if operation acknowledgement button 272 is then carried out the processing corresponding to selected button.When selecting and decision when being called as the button 431 of " reading luck tendency ", pattern is switched to activity pattern, and when selection and decision were called as the button 432 of " returning ", pattern switched to normal mode.
Activity pattern is wherein only to show the pattern of using 72 information that provide by one.Figure 20 is illustrated in the example that is presented at the screen on the display floater 221 on the activity pattern.In using viewing area 402, show only to show that wherein a portable screen 461 of using the information of 72 (in this case, called after " fortune-telling " is used 72-2) is shown.
In activity pattern, show the information according to an application 72, and in this state, the operation of other application 72 stops.As mentioned above, though in normal mode or focusing mode, the application 72 of registration and selected application 72 parallel work-flows, no matter and whether show them, in activity pattern, the only application 72 that shows of operation.
In activity pattern, movable application 72 accessed content servers 13 are to obtain content-data 131.Execution is based on the processing of the content-data 131 that obtains, and therefore (active) screen 461 of show events.
For example, as shown in figure 20, show the information that is provided by the application 72-2 that is called as " fortune-telling ", in the screen 461 of activity, the text of the content that the demonstration indication is told the fortune etc.Fortune-telling content shown in Figure 20 is the information that each constellation is provided, and when the user want to check except the constellation that shows (in Figure 20, during the fortune-telling information of the constellation the Virgo), he operates in the button " next (NEXT) " that movable screen provides for 461 times.User's action button " next one " is to check the fortune-telling information of expectation.
Simultaneously, think when providing fortune-telling information by constellation that the user wants to check the fortune-telling information of his/her constellation and inoperation button " next one ".Therefore, configuration registry user's constellation, and when pattern switches to activity pattern, at first show the information of the constellation of registration.
For example, in the screen of activity pattern shown in Figure 20, if user's remote controller 251 button 273 is set, then show the options menu screen that is used for setting up (registration) constellation etc.Figure 21 illustrates the example corresponding to the options menu screen of the application 72-2 that is called as " fortune-telling ".The screen of normal mode (for example, Figure 16) or the screen of focusing mode (for example, Figure 19) in, even remote controller 251 button 273 is set, at that time options menu screen 481 is superimposed upon on the screen, and to show with the same mode of activity pattern.
With reference to Figure 21, in options menu screen 481, show button 491, the button 492 that is called as " use and set up (APPLICATIONSETUP) " that is called as " (ALLAPPLICATION RELEASE) removed in all application ", the button 493 and the button 494 that is called as " inquiry (INQUIRY) " that is called as " registration (REGISTRATION) ".In these, about the button 493 that is known as " registration ", when application 72 experience that also do not have registration are handled, Show Options menu screen 481, and when application 72 experience of having registered are handled, show the button 493 that is called as " (REGISTRATIONRELEASE) removed in registration ".
The button 491 that is called as " all use releasing " is that operation is with the button of the registration of all application 72 of releasing registration.The button 492 that is called as " use set up " is operations with according to the button of using 72 configuration informations, for example, use 72 about the situation according to the fortune-telling of constellation under, the information of constellation etc. is set.
The button 493 that is called as " registration " is the buttons that show when application 72 experience that also do not have registration are handled, and is operated to register the application 72 that experience is handled.When application 72 experience of having registered are handled, the Show Button 493 " registration is removed ".The button 493 that is called as " registration is removed " is that operation is with the button of the registration of the application 72 of releasing registration.

In " photo friend ", " photo is fine " and " the photo selection " any one all is the application about photo (rest image).Though details is described in the description about each application, for describing each application simply, " photo friend " allows to know that the people of predetermined ID shares the application of photo." photo is fine " is to allow the user to check in the middle of the photo of being managed by book server (, being assumed to content server 13-1 here), is the application of the photo of good photo by many persons." photo selection " is to allow the user to check in the middle of the photo of being managed by content server 13-1, is classified as the application of the photo of predetermined kind.
[photo friend]
At first, will provide a description for the application 72-4 of called after " photo friend ".
Under the situation of the screen of normal mode shown in Figure 30, just, when the information of the application 72-5 that shows called after " photo is fine " in the zone 412 that is arranged in the middle part of using viewing area 402, if the knob down 271-2 of remote controller 251, then screen becomes the screen of normal mode shown in Figure 31.That is to say that screen switches to thereon the screen of normal mode of the information of the application 72-4 that shows called after " photo friend " in the zone 412 that is arranged in the middle part of using viewing area 402.
To provide a description for the screen of the called after on the screen of the normal mode shown in Figure 30 or 31 " photo friend ".As shown in figure 31, for example, the screen of called after " photo friend " has the background as the copy of one page paper book (paper album), and shows photo in background.Each process scheduled time switches to another photo with this photo.In other words, carry out demonstration, the page that just looks like photo album climbs over (replacement) one page (photo).Especially, the mode with slideshow is presented at the photo that shows in the screen of called after " photo friend ".
Each switch photo through the scheduled time, and for example, describe information about the scheduled time to be included in Java (registered trade mark) Script that uses among the 72-4.When switching photo, obtain the view data of photo from the content server 13 (being assumed to content server 13-1 here) of managing image data.The view data of background is included in to be used among the 72-4, and contrasts the earlier screen of instant playback normal mode of sheet.If only instant playback background, then the user may recognize the screen of changing into normal mode, or may feel operation uncomfortable of mistake because not have to show.Therefore, can alleviate uncomfortable sensation.
The view data of obtaining from content server 13-1 is the view data that is identified by predetermined ID.For example, predetermined ID is for identification user's 24 ID (Fig. 1) and the ID that is used with registration image data in content server 13-1 by user 24.In other words, user 24 can register the view data of the registration of the photo that is caught by him at content server 13-1.Whether predetermined ID is for being the ID of the checking of authorized user 24 registration image datas.
Content server 13-1 is configured to identify a plurality of view data based on the ID registration.In addition, in registration, the user places label.This label is represented the classification of photo.For example, under the situation of baby's photo, it is categorized as the classification of called after " baby (BABY) ", and places the label of this kind of expression.Below the application 72-6 of the called after " photo selection " described is selected photo based on label.
Turn back to the description of the screen of called after shown in Figure 31 " photo friend ", for example, display white frame around photo.By this white box, have multiple size (aspect ratio) even suppose the photo based on the view data of being managed by content server 13, also can absorb different sizes.When showing photo in the screen that is being called as " photo friend ", will be treated to the size according to the size (aspect ratio) of screen based on the photo of the view data of obtaining, and show the white box of the size of the photo that is suitable for having handled.
In the example of Figure 31, in called after " photo friend's " screen, also show sentence " photo of ABC ".The sentence that shows for example is, has corresponding to the sentence as the part of " ABC " of the pet name.Manage this pet name in content server 13-1 side explicitly with ID.
As mentioned above, in called after " photo friend's " screen, show the photo based on the view data of managing with predetermined ID, and correspondingly need before carrying out this demonstration, ID be set.This is because if ID is not set, then can not understand from content server 13-1 to obtain with which ID to manage which view data.
Therefore, when ID not being set, show screen shown in Figure 32, rather than the screen of called after shown in Figure 31 " photo friend ".Sentence " if acquaintance's ID is set, then will be checked acquaintance's open photo with reference to Figure 32! " be displayed in called after " photo friend's " the screen.If show this sentence, then the user can recognize ID is not set, and even activate and use 72-4 because ID is not set, he can not check photo.
If show this sentence, then the user can identify the application 72-4 of called after " photo friend " and allows the user to check the application 72 of acquaintance's open photo.
Read this sentence and recognize the user that he does not arrange ID ID can be set.In the screen of the screen of normal mode shown in Figure 32 or normal mode shown in Figure 31, for the foundation of the application 72-4 of called after " photo friend ", user's remote controller 251 button 273 is set.
If remote controller 251 button 273 is set, then show to be used for the options menu that ID sets up.Figure 33 illustrates the example corresponding to the options menu screen of the application 72-4 that is called as " photo friend ".At the screen of normal mode (for example, Figure 31), the screen of focusing mode as described below (for example, Figure 36) and the screen of activity pattern as described below (for example, Figure 37) arbitrarily in, if remote controller 251 button 273 is set, then at that time options menu screen 481 is superimposed upon on the screen, and carries out identical demonstration.
Simultaneously, under the situation of the application 72-4 that is called as " photo friend ", if ID is not set, do not change into focusing mode or activity pattern thereby then carry out control.Therefore, in focusing mode or activity pattern, ID has been set, and in this case, can have changed the ID that has arranged.
In options menu screen 481, show the project identical with the above-mentioned options menu screen 481 (Figure 21) that when the application 72-2 that is called as " fortune-telling " is placed in activity pattern, shows.Example shown in Figure 33 is different from example shown in Figure 21 and is Show Options menu screen 481 on the normal mode screen of using 72-4 (photo friend).
In the project in being presented at options menu screen 481, if selection and operation are called as the button 492 of " use and set up ", then screen is switched to screen shown in Figure 34.
To provide a description for the screen of setting up shown in Figure 34.The screen 501 of setting up shown in Figure 34 is for the screen in the foundation of the application 72-4 of called after " photo friend ".The screen 501 of setting up about the photo friend provides the zone 572 that wherein description allows the user to recognize the zone 571 of the sentence of importing which ID and wherein shows the ID that has arranged.
In zone 571, show that sentence " please be imported ID " and sentence " please be imported " http://abc.d-net.ne.jp/photo/*** ' * * * ' ".Just should be enough corresponding to the character of part " * * * " if the user can recognize input from this sentence.Address " http://abc.d-net.ne.jp/photo/ " is the address of being used to manage the view data of photo by content server 13-1.
Conclude the contract of registering about photo by the user 24 who uses ID in content server 13-1, to register photo in advance with the content provider 23 of organize content server 13-1 or the application supplier 22 of organize content server 13-1.The ID of exchange when existing in this contract, and this ID is input to the screen of setting up shown in Figure 34.
In the zone of setting up screen 572 shown in Figure 34, when having the ID that has arranged, show ID, rather than " * * * ".
Shown in Figure 34 when setting up screen when showing, if the affirmation button 272 of remote controller 251 then as shown in figure 35, shows the screen that is called as soft keyboard etc. that is used for supporting the character input.For example, in the character entr screen of Figure 35, be presented at the zone 581 that wherein shows the character of input, the zone 582 that shows a row button that can input character therein, display operation is with the button 583 " correction " of revising the character of importing and the button of operating when the character (ID) of input is satisfied 584 " affirmation ".
In example shown in Figure 35, the button that is presented at the character in the zone 582 is the lowercase character.Configuration button is selected character so that can pass through the operation of last button 271-1, knob down 271-2, left button 271-3 and the left button 271-4 of remote controller 251.The affirmation button 272 of remote controller 251 is to import selected character.
By repeating the operation of remote controller 251, the character that constitutes ID is input to zone 581.If all input constitutes the character of ID, then action button 584 " affirmation ".If action button 584, then screen turns back to screen shown in Figure 34.Then, in zone 572, show the ID that arranges.
Compare the keyboard of operation personal computer with the situation of input character, it is simple that the input of this ID is considered to.The type that constitutes the character of ID is alphabetic character or numeral and is limited.Therefore, even find character and the input of expectation from screen shown in Figure 35, think the become situation of trouble of the operation that does not have the character that is difficult to find expectation or remote controller 251.The number that constitutes the character of ID is not a lot, and therefore thinks and can only import ID by the operation several times of remote controller 251.
Therefore, because can import ID simply, so comprise most of people of child and the elderly ID can be set, and can check photo giocoso by the processing of using 72-4.
For example, suppose that user A tells his/her ID of father and mother A of user A.Father and mother A and user A can set up by above-mentioned simple ID and handle the photo of checking by user A registration.Therefore, in this case, when the grandson's of user A registration father and mother A photo, father and mother A can freely check grandson's photo.In addition, people can check photo in the television broadcasting on watching television receiver 14.Therefore, father and mother A can appreciate lovely grandson's photo, watches the favorite program of television broadcasting simultaneously.As mentioned above, under the situation of the screen of normal mode, switch photo to be shown, and therefore father and mother A appreciates grandson's the photo with various expressions.
As mentioned above, can be with simple foundation, in this case, ID sets up and shares photo.
When screen switches to the screen of activity pattern, amplify and be presented at the photo that shows in the screen of normal mode, as described below.When photo that demonstration is liked, the photo of liking can be checked as the photo of large-size simply.
About the application 72-2 that is called as " fortune-telling " shown in Figure 22 set up items displayed in the screen 501 be different from about the application 72-4 that is called as " photo friend " in the items displayed in the screen 501 of setting up shown in Figure 34, and these projects are corresponding to using 72.As mentioned above, items displayed depends on application 72 in setting up screen 501.
The project that arranges that arranges in setting up screen 501 is stored on television receiver 14 sides.Then, for example, when activate using 72-4 " photo friend ", with reference to the ID that in television receiver 14, arranges, and obtain the view data (content-data 131) corresponding to the photo that belongs to ID and show from content server 13-1.
To be the screen of the focusing mode of called after " photo friend " and the description that the screen in the activity pattern provides.
Under the situation of the screen of normal mode shown in Figure 31, if the affirmation button 272 of remote controller 251 then switches to screen the screen of focusing mode shown in Figure 36.
Under the situation of the screen of normal mode shown in Figure 32, just, when ID not being set, even the affirmation button 272 of remote controller 251, pattern is not changed into focusing mode yet, and screen does not switch to the screen of focusing mode.
