Description

Image Caraok device and communication-type karaoke OK system
The present invention relates to when the Kara OK songs of appointment is played, to have and background images is presented at the visual Caraok device of the function on the display device and by sending to the communication-type karaoke OK system that the information center of this image Caraok device constitutes to background images.
As existing karaoke OK system such as CD etc., have the medium stored by Kara OK songs information and song background animation information setting thereof are set in Caraok device, utilize this Kara OK songs information and background animation information to carry out the system of the performance type of so-called image Karaoke.In this case, though background animation information and Kara OK songs information (playing information and lyrics information etc.) are by each song storage, but because the quantity of information of background animation is very big, so must prepare very many CDs, special-purpose accepting rack and the shared area of Auto-changer of collecting a lot of CDs have like this increased.
A scheme as the miniaturization that addresses this problem is the Kara OK songs unpack, only stores in advance background images information, when playing music, song information as a setting image show.This background images is not that each song is intrinsic, for example utilize the image storage dish of under the situation that what is called singing usefulness/popular song is used, storing according to the background images information of genre classification, realize miniaturization by making the corresponding some first songs of a said background images.
Yet, while in the user of Karaoke, also really have and will song content be become the requirement that background images shows, sing karaoke is such of the intrinsic setting of figure song like this.For this reason, for example corresponding fixed Kara OK songs is stored the intrinsic background images information of intrinsic setting, and storage can be shared by a plurality of Kara OK songs and the shared background images information set, when the Kara OK songs of appointment is played, can consider under the situation that the intrinsic background images information at the described Kara OK songs of correspondence exists, just read this information and demonstration, if under non-existent situation, just read shared background images information and demonstration.
Certainly, because the Kara OK songs that in this case intrinsic background images stored is not clamping OK song whole of storage, so be necessary therefrom to select.For example adopting new song of every broadcast just automatically to send in order to increase in the situation of number of songs mode, can consider also to send intrinsic background images information for this new song, and be stored in for example hard disk as the intrinsic image storage device.Here it is to consider under new song situation from now on video-on-demand times many, while the background images that shows intrinsic setting, sing the reason that such requirement of playing Karaoka is Duoed relatively than old song.
; though can only store for example intrinsic background images information of the Kara OK songs of corresponding new song; if but new song of every broadcast is with regard to the intrinsic background images information of sequential storage; then each side all reaches the boundary of the memory capacity of intrinsic image memory storage, just can not store for the new pairing intrinsic background images information of song from now on.In addition, need to prepare in advance under the circumstances jumbo intrinsic image storage device, can damage so the such basic effect of storage device miniaturization, make and put the cart before the horse.Therefore must the intrinsic background images information that can be stored in the intrinsic image storage device be limited.
Yet, if the new storage below the time point that reaches the memory capacity limit simply can not carry out it, this is to be stored causedly by the low intrinsic background images information of necessary degree, it is also conceivable that for the high relatively new song of necessary degree and does not store intrinsic background images information.Like this, for example under the situation of storing in the intrinsic image information of appending the corresponding Kara OK songs that upgrades, since the existence of the intrinsic background images information that for example necessary degree is low relatively, and generation is about the problem that can not carry out of appending of newly bent intrinsic background images information.
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide can not make in the intrinsic image memory storage of dress maximize unsuitable degree, can append the intrinsic background images information of necessary Du Genggao semipermanently be stored in the visual Caraok device in this intrinsic image memory storage and be equipped with the communication-type karaoke OK system that can send to intrinsic background images information the information center of this image Caraok device.
The visual OK a karaoke club 0K device of the claim 1 of the present invention that proposes comprises in order to achieve the above object:
Storage is to the intrinsic image memory storage of the intrinsic background images information of the intrinsic setting of deciding Kara OK songs;
Storage can be used the shared image storage device of the shared background images information of setting jointly by several Kara OK songs;
The display device that can show above-mentioned intrinsic background images and shared background images;
When the Kara OK songs of appointment is played, in situation about intrinsic background images information that should Kara OK songs being stored in the above-mentioned intrinsic image storage device, read this pictorial information and in above-mentioned display unit, show intrinsic background images, and in the situation that is not having storage, from share image storage device, read fixed shared background images information and shared background images information is presented at background images display control unit in the above-mentioned display unit;
It is characterized in that also comprising:
Each intrinsic background images information that is stored in the above-mentioned intrinsic image memory storage is carried out the judgment means that necessary degree is judged;
In the situation that fixed deletion executive condition is set up, deletion is judged to be the information deletion device of the low intrinsic background images information of necessary degree by this judgment means from above-mentioned intrinsic image storage device.
In this visual Caraok device, the intrinsic image memory storage to fixed Kara OK songs store the intrinsic background images information of intrinsic setting, and the storage of shared image storage device can be used the shared background images information of setting jointly by several Kara OK songs.When the Kara OK songs of appointment is played, in the intrinsic image storage device, in the situation of storage to intrinsic background images that should Kara OK songs, read this song and in display unit, show intrinsic background images; And in the situation of not storage, from share image storage device, read fixed shared background images information and in display unit, show shared background images.
Therefore, in the situation of the Kara OK songs of having stored intrinsic background images information, can show with this song content one to one the image, thereby can make atmosphere more active.Can also be the image of the video style of singer's release of singing this former song as intrinsic back of the body picture information.
But become excessive in case be used to store the memory capacity of the intrinsic image memory storage of above-mentioned intrinsic background images information, will damage because the shared background images information that the storage of shared image storage device is used setting jointly by several Kara OK songs advantage of miniaturization as a whole, thereby be necessary to allow only storage about the intrinsic background images information of specific Kara OK songs.
For example, relevant new song consider from now on utilize frequency relatively higher, in the high situation of the display requirement in so intrinsic background images information, intrinsic background images information that can consideration order relevant new song of storage in the intrinsic image storage device.But, in the situation that adopts the system of at any time appending new song, although store the low intrinsic background images information of necessary degree, often can not store the intrinsic background images information of the relatively high new song of relevant necessary degree.Even namely in the new song of this time point, through after the regular period, become gradually relatively old song along with in rapid succession new bent broadcast.Therefore, the institute after play regularly between in also often become the low intrinsic background images of frequency of utilization with the intrinsic background images of high-frequency use since the some time.
For this reason, in this visual Caraok device, take following treatment measures.
Namely judge one by one the necessary degree that is stored in the intrinsic background images information in the intrinsic image storage device by judgment means, in the situation that fixed deletion executive condition is set up, just deletion is judged as the low intrinsic background images information of necessary degree by judgment means from the intrinsic image storage device.
The situation that relevant fixed deletion executive condition is set up, as described in the claim 2, the amount of space in the intrinsic image memory storage become than under the quantitative situation about lacking, can consider to judge fixed deletion executive condition establishment.In this case, information deletion device just deletion is judged as the low intrinsic background images information of necessary degree, until that the spatial content in the intrinsic image storage device reaches institute is quantitatively above.
As mentioned above, be judged as the low intrinsic background images information of necessary degree by deletion from the intrinsic image storage device, the spatial content in the intrinsic image storage device is increased.For example, if in the situation of claim 2, then often can make spatial content in the intrinsic image storage device remain on institute quantitatively more than.Therefore, the intrinsic image storage device of interior dress is maximized, the high intrinsic background images information of necessary degree is appended more semipermanently be stored in the intrinsic image storage device, new service is provided append with information to be stored in this information-storing device semipermanently.
About the judgment means of judging above-mentioned necessary degree following consideration is arranged:
Namely in device as claimed in claim 3, judgment means is not judged the necessary degree of each intrinsic background images information according to having as during the background images use that shows when playing Kara OK songs by the background images display control unit.
In addition, the device shown in claim 4, judgment means is judged the necessary degree of intrinsic background images information one by one according to the frequency of using as the background images that shows when playing Kara OK songs by the background images display control unit.
But, the intrinsic background images information of relevant new storage, because during the thing dealer be set do not judge this necessity degree, being judged as necessary degree, all to hang down this be worthless, and for example the intrinsic background images information of relevant new storage also can begin when this is stored to carrying out this judgement through behind the certain hour.
In addition,, not have for a long time thereafter under the situation about using even use once since consider the necessary degree that provides with information should be provided low, so can take place not for execution information provide serve use during the low more situation of long more, necessary degree.Can also carry out the low more situation of low more, the necessary degree of frequency equally.
Even that does not at first sight use is chronic, but be frequent use In the view of for a long time, its access times are generally also increasing.In addition, in contrast, even access times diminish, but the storage in its intrinsic background images information is under the nearest situation period, because it also is certain that access times tail off, so can not be only according to fix time and do not use or access times are few and merely to be judged as necessary degree low, preferably the time that for example not have to use and frequency of utilization etc. are carried out the necessary degree of judgement after the analysis-by-synthesis.
In addition, in device as claimed in claim 2, though the spatial content in the intrinsic image memory storage become than under the quantitative situation about lacking, be judged as fixed deletion executive condition set up, not only can resemble and judge according to spatial content above-mentioned, also can not have time of using etc. to judge according to for example above-mentioned.Namely under the time that does not have to use becomes quite long situation, even for example spatial content in the situation more than quantitative, also can be judged as fixed deletion executive condition establishment.
In device as claimed in claim 5, also can according to the stores processor time of implementation to intrinsic image memory device, judge one by one the necessary degree of intrinsic background images information.For example, shown in claim 6, the relevant close present intrinsic background images information of fixing a number of stores processor time of implementation to the intrinsic image storage device, it is high to be judged as necessary degree; And the relevant information that stores processor is carried out before it, it is more low to be judged as stores processor time of implementation necessary degree more of a specified duration, accordingly, for example can also equip at least recently 100 intrinsic background images information of storage.Owing to consider that the possibility of new intrinsic background images information use is still quite high, control so had better only keep the nearest part of fixing a number without exception.
The feature of visual Caraok device as claimed in claim 7 is in the Caraok device described in each, comprising in claim 1-6:
By information communication network can with information center's information communication net connecting device that be connected of the above-mentioned intrinsic background images information of storage;

The bent information of playing Karaoka is that bent serial number information and entity information constitute by the identifying information that is used to discern between song and the song.This entity information is made up of playing information and lyrics information as fan's flute (MIDI, MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface)) specification of accompaniment music information.The thousands of first Karaoke song informations of storage in advance in hard disk 33.Image Caraok device 10 is management devices of karaoke terminal setting operation person, whenever broadcast a first new song data, just can receive the supply of song data there the system of present embodiment from the song data operator that provides and delivers, be connected with information communication network 5 by communication control unit 27, from information center 1, receive said new song data, can be stored in the hard disk 33 then.
In addition, so-called intrinsic background images information be for specific song according to its content image of making of mode one to one, the image that for example also can be video style that the singer who sings this former song is released is as intrinsic background images information.So-called shared background images information connects school and classifies under the situation that for example so-called performance usefulness/popular song is used, if belong to the song of this school, then can be the image that the mode used according to not too feeling to lack of proper care is made, by the corresponding a plurality of songs of one of them background images being made be used for the miniaturization that realizes hard disk 33 itself.
Therefore, the Kara OK songs that above-mentioned intrinsic background images information is not corresponding stored whole and existing just exist for the bent number of certain restriction on the contrary.Specifically, in the memory block of the intrinsic background images information of hard disk 33, can only store the intrinsic background images information of the first song part of 10-20, can store the intrinsic background images information of relevant new song in an embodiment.
Intrinsic background images information for relevant new song is when the Kara OK songs information of the relevant new song of accepting to be supplied with by above-mentioned song data dispensing operator, supplies with in the lump resulting.That is to say, be connected with information communication network 5 that receive the intrinsic background images information of relevant new song from information center 1, the institute that is stored in hard disk 33 then decides to distinguish in (intrinsic background images information storage area) by communication control unit 27.
In the present embodiment, can also store the actual use achievement of this intrinsic background information.Fig. 8 has represented the actual use list of results of storage in hard disk 33.For LSN 1-20, there is the table that is received the item designs such as day or last use day access times by song sequence number corresponding to the visual sequence number of each intrinsic background images information.In addition, in the present embodiment, can store at the most 20 information as intrinsic background images information.
Here so-called reception day or last use day refer to once also not have in the situation of use after the intrinsic background images information of reception, receive and day are intactly stored the superincumbent date; And in the corresponding situation bent and that in said Karaoke performance is processed, use of program request, when each uses the chance renewal by it, above the date of using at last is stored in.In addition, so-called access times refer to the number of times of as a setting image use when Karaoke is played.
The song that the user selects plan to sing by operating many purposes enter key 32.In case selected, CCU 31 is just played Karaoka to play according to the Karaoke performance program of determining and is processed.If briefly, corresponding playing information of song and lyrics information that central control unit 31 is read from hard disk 33 and selected, playing information sends sound reproduction circuit 35 to, and lyrics information sends picture display control unit 26 to.In addition,, just read these information,, just read pairing definite common background picture information and send picture display control unit 26 to if do not store intrinsic background images information if the background images information of the song of selecting is stored relatively.
After being converted to simulation and played signal by the playing information of sound reproduction circuit 35 output, give mixer amplifier 38 through electric amplification, the song with the singer who imports by microphone 43 mixes in suitable ratio simultaneously.Mixed voice signal is played voice output to outside by loudspeaker 41 conducts.
In televimonitor 29, show in picture disply control device 26 with behind the background images signal synthetic (stack) with the lyrics information of synchronously output of playing information.Whereby, in televimonitor 29 lyrics self-reflection magic lantern in background images to show under the synthetic state.
The following describes the formation and the function thereof of information center 1.
Information center 1 as shown in Figure 2, comprise the communication control unit 57 that links to each other with visual Caraok device 10 by information communication network 5 and accumulate dispensing that they are by principal computer 51 controls as central control unit to the Kara OK songs information of visual Caraok device 10 and the memory storage 53 of intrinsic background images information.Principal computer 51 links to each other with various devices such as input media 55, printer 59, CRT61.Except storage Karaoke song information and intrinsic background images information, also storage is used for the various control programs of host computer 51 operations in storage device 53.
The information centre 1 that so consists of sends Kara OK songs information by 5 pairs of each visual Caraok devices 10 of information communication network.In order to append new song information, though this transmission can be carried out from information center's 1 one sides by the speed about a few days, but also can by from visual Caraok device 10 sides for example termly (for example once a day) inquire new song, respond this inquiry, if the processing of just can providing and delivering of the new song that should provide and deliver is arranged.In any case, as a result of can clamping OK song information be sent to visual Caraok device 10 from information center 1.The new song information of so-called this transmission refers to Kara OK songs information and the intrinsic background images information corresponding with this Kara OK songs information.
The following describes the operation of the system of present embodiment with above-mentioned formation.The operation of visual Caraok device at first is described according to Fig. 3-Fig. 6.
This master routine will just be begun behind the power connection to carry out.
At first in initial step S1, make all device initialization of resetting of communication control unit 27 etc.Then in S2, specify as the operation of visual Caraok device 10, check that OK a karaoke club 0K plays pattern and whether specifies.If specified Karaoke performance pattern by karaoke terminal setting operation person, then transfer to S3, if do not specify, then transfer to S4.
In S3, call subroutine is played Karaoka to play and is handled.Flowchart text below in conjunction with Fig. 4 should Karaoke be played processing.
Play among the initial step S30 that processes in this Karaoke, wait for the input from many purposes enter key 32, if key input (S30:YES) has been arranged, then in S31, judge whether it is the input of program request sequence number.Under the situation that is the program request input, just transfer to S32, carry out the song of this program request sequence number and play.
It is such as mentioned above that processing is played in this Karaoke, reads the playing information and the lyrics information of the song of corresponding selection from hard disk 33, sends playing information to sound reproduction circuit 35, sends lyrics information to picture display control unit 26.About background images, whether the intrinsic background images information of at first judging the corresponding selection song is just in the intrinsic background images information storage area stored of hard disk 33, if, then just read this intrinsic background images information, if do not store, then just from the shared background images memory block of hard disk 33, read fixed shared background images information and send picture display control unit 26 to.Whether the intrinsic background images information of corresponding selection song stores in the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33, if with reference to the corresponding sequence number of the use real result table of Fig. 8, make and can easily judge.
Be transformed into by the playing information of sound reproduction circuit output and send mixer amplifier 38 to behind the performance signal of simulation and carry out electric amplification, simultaneously by microphone 43 in carrying out mixing with the suitable ratio of user's the song of input, the voice signal after the mixing by loudspeaker 41 as playing voice outputs to the outside.With the lyrics information of synchronously output of playing information in picture disply control device 26, with background images signal synthetic (stack) and demonstration in televimonitor 29.Accordingly, lyrics aphengoscope status indications to synthesize in background images in televimonitor 29.
After the processing of this S32, transfer to S33.
In S31, be judged as in the situation that is not the output of program request sequence number, in S34, just after the processing of carrying out other key input of response, transfer to S33.Judge that in S33 indicating whether that karaoke mode finishes has, do not have if finish indication, then turn back to S30; If it is existing to finish indication, then just finish Ben Kala OK and play processing, transfer to the S4 of the flow chart of Fig. 3.
In S4, specify as the operation of visual Caraok device 10, verify and whether fix time in the institute that is used for new bent inquiry.This is for whether for example 1 time on the 1st inquiry has the data that provide and deliver from information center, so that obtain new song data (Kara OK songs information and intrinsic background images information) as early as possible.Fix time if be used for the institute of new song inquiry, then just after transferring to S5 and carrying out intrinsic background images information deletion processing, transfer to again S6 and carry out new song query processing.In addition, the institute of inquiring if not new song fixes time, and then transfers to S2.
In S5, call subroutine carries out intrinsic background images information deletion to be handled.It is be used to the processing of guaranteeing spatial content that this deletion is processed, namely because just there is accordingly the possibility of the intrinsic background images information that receives new song, spatial content of the memory block of the intrinsic background images information of inspected hard disk 33 before it, if spatial content is inadequate, then should delete the low information of necessary degree in the intrinsic background images information of storing.Handle referring to this intrinsic background images information deletion of flowchart text of Fig. 5 below.
In initial step S70, judge hard disk 33 intrinsic background images information storage area spatial content institute quantitatively whether less than.In S70, be judged as negative, namely the spatial content of the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33 guarantee in the situation more than quantitatively, even can not produce any fault owing under this state, receive the background images information relevant with new song yet, therefore can not carry out the following processing of S71, finish this intrinsic background images information deletion and process, transfer to the S6 in the flow chart of Fig. 3.
On the other hand at the spatial content of the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33 by (S70:YES) under less than quantitative situation, then transfer to S71.
After S71, consult and use reception day or the last application target project of real result table (seeing Fig. 8), even once do not use yet or only use once, and in thereafter long-time never the intrinsic background images information of use be used as the quite low information of necessary degree and eliminate.
In S71, at first, establish n=1 in order just to use real result table (Fig. 8) by the record sequential search, then in S72, read the reception day or last the use day of said record.For example in situation shown in Figure 8, about reception day or the last use day of the visual sequence number " 0001 " of record are to put down on January 7th, 6 at first.
Then in S73, for the state continuance that judges whether once not have to use for a long time, and judge from receiving day or final the use day begins whether pass through α more than day.For example establish α=180, and also can delete 6 days above song and the intrinsic image information thereof that do not have use that continue, for example when putting down into that April 1 was carried out this processing in 7 year, because the reception day of the song of above-mentioned song sequence number " 0001 " or final use day are for putting down on January 7th, 6, so be affirmative determination, then transfer to S75 in S73.
The said intrinsic background images information that deletion is stored in the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33 in S75.In S76, from use the real result table, delete corresponding record, and turn back to 70 then.In case the record of deletion exists, and just can finish record thereafter in proper order.
Like this, for example at first from hard disk 33, delete the Kara OK songs information of song sequence number " 0001 ", the record of deletion correspondence from use real result table (with reference to Fig. 8) again, whether the spatial content of intrinsic image information storage area of judging hard disk 33 in S70 once more is by being decided less than amount.
If the spatial content of the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33 then just repeats the following processing of S71 by being decided less than amount.Specifically, again pass through S71,72 processing, reception day or final the use day of reading initial record, in this case, owing to from state shown in Figure 8, delete the record of visual sequence number " 0001 ", so initial record becomes visual sequence number " 0002 ".The date of reading in S72 is to put down on November 24th, 6.By according to being the judgement of " 1 " in the project of access times, this shows putting down on November 24th, 6 and used once.
At this moment, owing to do not pass through α day above (S73:NO), and forward S74 to.In S74,, n is increased progressively (n ← n+1), turn back to S72 then in order to check next record.Inspection record so in order, if describe by situation shown in Figure 8, because about any one all above through α day and the not deletion among 5 of visual sequence number " 0003 "-" 0007 " since the reception day of next visual sequence number " 0008 " or last use day above and deleted through α day.

In visual Caraok device, judge that according to this answer result new song data has or do not have, if new song data is arranged, then complete bently obtain request to what information center 1 sent new song.The information centre 1 that accepts after this request is that Kara OK songs information and intrinsic background images information send visual Caraok device 10 to relevant new bent data.Visual Caraok device 10 cut-outs that receive this information and preserve are connected with information center 1.
Present embodiment according to above explanation, in the hard disk 33 of visual Caraok device 10, storage to the intrinsic background images information of the intrinsic setting of fixed Kara OK songs (for example new song) and shared and can use the shared background images information of setting by several Kara OK songs.When the Kara OK songs of appointment is played, if intrinsic background images information that should Kara OK songs is stored in the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33, just reads this information and be presented on the video monitor 29 as lyrics aphengoscope background.If not storage, then just read fixed shared background images information show.
Therefore, in the situation of the Karaoke song of having stored intrinsic background images information, can show with its content one to one the image, thereby can make atmosphere more active.Also may make the image of the video style that the singer that for example singing this former song releases as intrinsic background images information.
As long as being used in the capacity of the intrinsic background images information storage area of the so intrinsic background images information of storage becomes enough big, by storing by several Kara OK songs shared background images information that share and that can use setting, owing to damaged the advantage of the miniaturization of hard disk 33 as a whole, and be necessary to allow the only intrinsic background images information of the relevant specific Kara OK songs of storage.
For example relevant new song consider from now on utilize frequency relatively higher, in the high situation of the display requirement of so intrinsic background images information, can consider the intrinsic background images information of the relevant new song of sequential storage.In the situation that adopts the system of at any time appending new song, although store the low intrinsic background images of necessary degree, often can not store the intrinsic background images information of the relatively high new song of relevant necessary degree.Even namely in the new song of this time point, through after the regular period, become gradually relatively old song along with in rapid succession new bent broadcast.Therefore between the institute after broadcast is regular, the intrinsic background images that high-frequency is used begins also often to become the low song of frequency of utilization from certain time point.
Therefore, in the visual Caraok device 10 of present embodiment, before receiving new song, judge the spatial content of the intrinsic background images memory block of hard disk 33, under the insufficient situation of spatial content of the intrinsic background images information that is used to receive new song, judge the necessary degree of the intrinsic image background images information of having stored one by one, delete the low song of necessary degree.In view of the above, the spatial content of the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33 is increased, can't make the hard disk 33 unsuitable degree that maximizes, the intrinsic background images information that receives new song becomes possibility so semipermanently.
In the above-described embodiments, although not using for a long time as main cause to determine the data of deletion, when determining to delete data, also can consider the access times shown in the table of Fig. 8, the number of times of namely being requested a song.That is to say that even at first sight there is not the time of use long, but in situation about seeing for a long time, it often uses, its access times are generally also increasing.Otherwise in addition, even access times tail off, but the reception in its intrinsic background images information is under the nearest situation period, because it also is certain that access times tail off, thereby can not be only according to fix time and do not use or access times are few and merely to be judged as necessary degree low, preferably the time that for example not have to use and frequency of utilization etc. are carried out the necessary degree of judgement after the analysis-by-synthesis.
The present invention is not subjected to any restriction of above embodiment, can implement various forms in the scope of aim of the present invention.
For example in the above-described embodiments, although can carry out judging after the analysis-by-synthesis according to obsolete time and frequency of utilization etc., also can carry out necessary degree according to the stores processor of the hard disk 33 of intrinsic background images information the term of execution and judge.For example the relevant stores processor time of implementation to hard disk 33 is judged as necessary degree height near the intrinsic background images information of present institute fix a number (for example 100); And the relevant information that stores processor is carried out before it, it is more low to be judged as stores processor time of implementation necessary degree more of a specified duration.In view of the above, for example can have 100 intrinsic background images information of sum of storage recently at least.In the situation that the intrinsic background images information of new song is appended in proper order, owing to think relatively higher for the use possibility of the intrinsic background images information of still new song, can also control by the intrinsic background images information of fixing a number that only keeps without exception recently storage.
In the above-described embodiments, owing to consist of as the communication-type karaoke OK system, so in information centre's 1 one sides, also can judge whether and should delete.In this case, information with the spatial content of the intrinsic background images information storage area of relevant hard disk 33 from visual Caraok device 10 sends information center 1 to, in information center 1, also can according to this spatial content information judge fixed deletion executive condition whether set up.And, the relevant intrinsic background images information this point of determining deletion, the storage device 53 of information centre 1 has the table same with use real result shown in Figure 8, also can carry out according to this content.If will use real result to send information center's 1 one sides at any time, then can also store access times and receive day or last the use day etc. from for example visual Caraok device 10.
In addition, according to before from the new song dispensing request of visual Caraok device 10 intrinsic background images information being sent out from information center 1, should judge fixed deletion executive condition whether set up, when condition is set up, also can send the deletion execution command that is judged as the low intrinsic background images information of necessary degree to visual Caraok device 10.In visual Caraok device 10, also can from the intrinsic background images information storage area of hard disk 33, delete the intrinsic background images information of delete instruction object according to this instruction.Can have arbitration functions in information center's side like this.
In addition, in the above-described embodiments, though adopt information communication network 5 to carry out so-called online transmission owing to closely add new song, be not limited to visual Caraok device 10 in the such communication-type karaoke OK system of the foregoing description as visual Caraok device of the present invention.For example be freestanding, for example the server of song dispensing public institution goes a new song is appended storage in hard disk 33 before directly, even in this case, deletion intrinsic background images information not, appending under the situation of new song, can prevent to realize said appending, thereby have and the same effect of above-mentioned online occasion.
