Specific implementation mode
Disclosure provided herein describes
System and method.
Fig. 1 provides the block diagram of locked media content system 10 according to embodiment of the present disclosure.System 10 can wrap
Include content player 20.Content player 20 may include content reader 22 and content output end 24.In Fig. 1, content is broadcast
It puts device 20 and is illustrated as home entertainment system, the content reader 22 with such as Blu-ray Disc player, and such as television set
Content output end 24.Alternatively, content player 20 can be individual equipment, including content reader and content output end,
Such as flat content player 50.Content player 20 can be can be that user plays any of media content and appropriate sets
It is standby.This can include but is not limited to, home entertainment system, DVD player, Blu-ray Disc player, television set, MP3 player,
Mobile phone, smart phone, tablet computing device, other mobile devices, game machine, personal computer, luggable computer etc..
Content player 20 may be coupled to network 30.Network 30 can be the wide area network or local of such as internet
Any network between net, or both.Network 30 may include honeycomb, WiFi, other are wireless, wired and/or cable assembly.
What is connect with network 30 also has remote server 40.
Content player 20 is for playing media content.This media content can be any electronic media content, including
But it is not limited to, handwritten content (for example, books or article), video content, audio content, image, game etc..This disclosure relates to
Handle locked media content.Locked media content may include that satisfaction one is needed before user can access content
A or more conditions any media content.The Usual examples of these conditions may include such as date terms (for example, only
Only can broadcasting content after a certain date), geographical conditions are in specific geographical area (for example, in can only playing
Hold), user's condition (for example, password must be inputted before content can be played to identify user) or can be used for limiting
Any other condition that media content is accessed.Media content can be encrypted so that user can not access content, and so
It can be decrypted when one or more predetermined condition meets afterwards.
The present disclosure contemplates transmit or show to user when user is unsatisfactory for accessing the criterion of locked media content
Optionally content playlist.Simple examples will be provided now to illustrate some essential characteristics of the disclosure.Ordinary skill
It, can be by although personnel understand the example according to the Blu-ray Disc comprising the movie contents with the particular delivery date to discuss
The other embodiment used is still in the spirit of the disclosure.
Movie contents are usually transmitted via Blu-ray Disc.In film after cinema no longer plays the several months, film
Blue light version is generally given issue date.Usually, these Blu-ray Discs are self-demarking codes, or are in the form of can play,
So that if you have CD, you can play its content.However, this, which typically results in bootlegger, can obtain the morning of Blu-ray Disc
The case where phase copy and the publication before blue light issue date copy.It is therefore preferable that protection Blu-ray Disc makes when indigo plant
When light CD is inserted into Blu-ray player, it can only be played after issue date.In this way, even if someone can
The copy of Blu-ray Disc is obtained before the release date, they will not be able to play CD, because should only after issue date
Content can be unlocked, for example, decruption key is only just issued after issue date.In this example, issue date is to close
In the time-based condition that film media content plays, that is, media content cannot be played until meeting the condition (day of today
Phase must be later than issue date).
In order to enhance time-based condition, whether system 10 must judge the date of today after issue date.This
It can realize in several ways.Fig. 2 provides the flow chart of the illustrative methods compared for local zone time/date.At this
In a nation method, do not require to be connected to network to carry out any step.In step 201, prepare to play media content.In blue light
In the example of CD, this may include that Blu-ray Disc is put into Blu-ray player.In step 202, media player is read
Media content and read be set the time-based condition on media content.It is based on to judge whether to have met
The condition of time, in step 203, media player receives locally available date/time information.The step may include matchmaker
Body player from as media player a part or be attached to media player local clock read date/time letter
Breath.Then whether the more local date/time information of media player and time-based condition have been met with Rule of judgment
(step 204).If condition has met, for example, issue date is on July 1st, 2013, and current date is 2013 7
The moon 8, then play media content.However, if condition is unsatisfactory for, for example, current date is on January 1st, 2013, then media are broadcast
It puts device and provides a user the alternative playlist for being currently available for purchase or the media content played.
The alternative playlist presented to user may include the local media content being locally stored, such as be stored in media
On player or on media content disk.In the example of Blu-ray Disc, optionally playlist may include being stored in blue light
Other media contents on CD, such as even before film issue date the available movie trailer of user, game or
Other specific characteristics of person.Optionally playlist can also include the Blu-ray player or other media players for being stored in user
On other media contents.In this way, user is able to access that certain contents on Blu-ray Disc, but can not access it
His region, until meeting actual conditions (such as issue date).
Multiple conditions can be set on media content on being stored in CD or other storage mediums.For example, blue light
CD can include user once the purchase available trailer of Blu-ray Disc, and can in blue light the last week issue date of film
The specific characteristic obtained, then can be obtained film after issue date.
By realizing system disclosed herein and method, media content manufacturer is know only will be in their desired days
Phase (issue date) content can be obtained or wish media content is arranged at them any other under the conditions of, can be in office
It anticipates to sales media content of fixing the date.For example, can in film still in cinema screening when cinema sell film blue light
Version, but user is in, the film that cannot be watched on Blu-ray player is until had been subjected to issue date so that patron is still
It is encouraged to watch film in cinema while film can be obtained.Optionally content playlist encourages user's viewing or purchase that can obtain
Other media contents, even if " master " media content may still non-availability.It can regularly gift to user and thank with a gift media content
To encourage user to continue access media content before playing condition satisfaction.
Fig. 3 illustrates network-based method, can enhance issue date condition by this method.In step 301, prepare to broadcast
Put media content.Media content can local (for example, Blu-ray Disc or on the computer equipment of user) can obtain, Huo Zheke
To be accessed by network (for example, download or streaming medium content).In step 302, media player is communicated with remote server.
Remote server can store media content conditional information, the issue date of such as film.Remote server can receive identification
Media player attempts to play the information of media content, and judges whether that the full terms about media content have met
Information.In the example of the Blu-ray movie with specific issue date, remote server can receive issue date information and work as
The preceding date/temporal information.The information can be provided by media player, for example, Blu-ray player or the information can be remote
Journey server local can obtain, or can be by any other source appropriate (for example, being connected to reliable third party's time of network
Source, such as atomic clock) it provides.In step 303, current date/time judges issue date condition compared with issue date
Whether meet.This judgement can be carried out in remote server.Alternatively, relevant information can be sent back to media player and make
This judgement can be carried out at media player by obtaining.In step 304, if condition meets, media are played.If condition
It is unsatisfactory for, then provides a user alternative playlist.
About time-based condition, Fig. 2 discusses the time-based conditions method of pure local, and Fig. 3 is provided
Network-based method.Time-based condition can be enhanced using the combination of local and network-based method.For example,
If the clock on local player is unreliable (for example, user can adjust it), need to take steps to assure that user
It is not awarded and the relatively early of the media content of time lock is accessed.In order to ensure relatively early access is not awarded, can be carried to user
For the disk with acquiescence inventory, it includes the one or more digital media content that can be accessed at any time, Yi Jiji
In the additional inventory that specified conditions lock.Content in acquiescence inventory, which does not require to meet before accessing the content, to be specifically based on
The criterion of time.However, in order to access the inventory of the locking with time-based condition, user can be required their matchmaker
Body player is connected to network and media player is allow reliably to judge whether to meet time-based condition, for example, logical
Network is crossed to access reliable time source.
When user takes particular step, user's Ke get inventories.For example, local media player of the initial invoice in user
On can obtain immediately.Once media player is connected to network by user, user Ke get adds inventory.Then, once reliably
When ground judgement has met the time-based condition on the inventory of locking, the further inventories of user Ke get.It can local (example
Such as, via disk) inventory is provided, or can be provided by network.
In another embodiment, the local media player of user can be reliably to the initial connection of network
Temporal information is provided, even if not remaining connected to network.In the present embodiment, local media player can include can be with
It time passage and reliably tracks the relative time clock of time.However, when in order to which tracking can be continued from local media player
Between passage in obtain it is reliable at the beginning of, can require user that media player is connected to that network makes can by network
Obtain correct time reading.It is lighted from this, can not require to be connected to network, because local media player can be used from network
How long the initial time data pulled, then determination have passed through to obtain reliable current time.
The relative time clock of local media player can be also used for according to requiring specific time to pass, rather than absolutely hair
The time-based condition on cloth date unlocks media content and/or inventory.For example, Blu-ray Disc can include three inventories,
Wherein each inventory is unlocked based on different time-based criterion.As discussed above, these time-based criterion can
To be based on absolute clock so that dominate when material can obtain specific issue date.It therefore, can be in the first date and first time
Make the first inventory of the first set with media content that can obtain, and can make with media on the second date and the second time
Second inventory of the second set of content can obtain, and can make the third with media content on third date and third time
The third inventory of set can obtain.Alternatively, relative time clock can be used for the time-based criterion of reinforced phase pair.In this example
In, it can make the first inventory on disk that can obtain immediately so that user can watch when being inserted into disk for the first time.Media player can be with
Then determine that the time from being initially inserted into of disk passs using relative time clock.After having been subjected to scheduled time quantum (for example,
10 days after being initially inserted into of disk), the second inventory on the disk of the second set with media content can be by user Ke get.With
This mode, multiple opposite time-based criterion can be applied to control, and when media content is by user Ke get.
Be not using absolutely or relative time determines when that media content can be unlocked, can be with using password condition
Enhance issue date condition so that media content can not be accessed until user inputs password.Password can be in issue date
Publication so that user can not access locked media content until having issued password in issue date.In addition, different is close
Code can unlock different inventories.
In fig. 2, it if it is determined that the condition of the specific fragment of unlock media content does not meet, then provides a user and optionally broadcasts
Emplace table.Such as discussed in Fig. 3 and showing in Fig. 1, in addition to or the arbitrarily alternative content locally provided is provided, to net
The connection of network considers the additional content that user will be sent to by network.For example, being unsatisfactory for playing item if user attempts to play
The media content of part can then be presented by the media content choosing for watching or buying obtained by network automatically to user
The selection of item.Optionally content can be content that user has possessed, either can view for free content or can be used for buying
Then the content watched.
The alternative content provided a user can be the default collection for the identical content of whole users, or can be with base
Change in a number of factors.For instance, it may check the viewing hobby of user judges specific content that user can more pay close attention to.If
User tends to watch a large amount of action movies, then the alternative media content in action movie style can be presented to user.User's
Position may be used to determine position-specific content, the advertisement such as locally attracted.Optionally playlist can also include and not have
Meet the related media content of locked media content of access consideration.For example, if user attempts to play New cinema, still
There are no issue date is reached, then trailer, the film itself of the sequel and/or forward pass for the film can be provided a user
Trailer, the film that user has possessed or user can buy sequel and/or forward pass, for the publication of film before
Thank with a gift feature, the original painting original text from film or photo stage photo etc..
Fig. 4 provides the flow chart of the alternative playlist transmission for customization.Step 401-403 corresponds to the step of Fig. 3
301-303.In step 404, date/time condition is unsatisfactory for.Therefore, in step 405, the alternative broadcasting of customization is provided a user
List.The alternative playlist of customization can be based on several variables.For example, the media provided in customization optionally playlist
Content can be based on date and time (for example, the currently preview of the film in cinema), position (for example, being inhaled for local
The commercial advertisement drawn or about the information locally attracted), playback equipment is (for example, if equipment is game machine, about game
The advertisement of game on machine), content transmission medium on available additional content (for example, other on Blu-ray Disc can obtain
Content), additional content locally available on the media player of user is (for example, be stored on the Blu-ray player of user
Content), the screen resolution of media player is based on media player (for example, provide standard resolution or high-resolution
Content) etc..User selects the viewing preference that playlist is also based on user else so that provides a user with user previously
The related either media content of other similar media contents of media content of viewing attempts to access that still with user
The identical style of the ungratified media content of playing condition or otherwise related media content.Optionally playlist is interior
Appearance is referred to content locally available on disk, to the content of media player local (for example, hard disk drive, SD card, USB
Driver etc.), be away from media player and via the available content of network or to media player it is available it is any its
His content.
Although so far playing condition by discussion has concentrated on date/time condition, that is, issue date, it should be appreciated that
Playing condition can be that media content manufacturer may desire to be arranged in one or more condition in their content
Either one or two of.Some examples may include geographical conditions (for example, only can in specific geographical area broadcasting content), user
Condition (for example, password must be inputted before content can be played to identify user) or can be used for limit in media
Hold any other condition accessed.Another example can be the condition based on user so that access specific inner capacities or
It accesses content and reaches the qualification that special time period will make user have additional content, to encourage user to watch more contents.For sentencing
The information whether broken strip part has met can obtain information (information may be on remote server 40), right by network 30
The locally available information of media player 20, information input by user or to any other the available information of system 10.Such as
Discussed above, which can be provided to whether media player 20 has been met with Rule of judgment.Alternatively, which can be with
There is provided whether remote server 40 has been met with Rule of judgment.If playing out judgement in remote server 40, remotely
Server 40 can to media player transmit signal come order media renderer plays media content (if condition satisfaction) or
Person's order media player does not play media content, obtains showing alternative content playlist (if condition is unsatisfactory for).
