CD (external record medium 417 will be described below) comprises the content identification information of content (music data) and this content of identification in this embodiment.Content identification information is used to discern music title by the code representative that is called ISRC (international standard record code).
The content of hypothetical record on CD do not encrypted.The CD here wherein combines the zone (CD-DA) that is used for CD and the enhancing CD in CD-ROM zone.In addition, Na Li CD-ROM zone can be stored in encrypted rights management information 203 in the predetermined encryption system.
What describe below is numerical data distribution in this copyright protecting system.Suppose that a user A buys by first digital data record and reproducer 1011 and reproduced some numerical datas (typically, music), and he finds oneself to like these data, and plan suggestion user B and buy these data.In this case, user A can be stored in these numerical datas in the medium, and brings the user B with it, or directly these data is sent to user B by the Internet.Because user A needn't worry to describe these numerical datas and resembles what (for example, music title, singer's name), so for two of them, everything goes well with your work carries out for this, and user B has only received the data from user A.Then, user B may also find oneself to like this music, and it is recommended another user C.If based on use the behavior of this wide dispersion numerical data is charged, then the copyright holder can enjoy the interests of bringing thus.Basically, developed this copyright protecting system under the circumstances.
Fig. 4 is the diagrammatic sketch that specifically illustrates the copyright protecting system that is used for above-mentioned this situation.In the figure ear, suppose user A by first digital data record and reproducer 1011 by content server 102 down-load music data (step 1), and to the 103 online payments (step 2) of billed services device.Then, user A sends to music data the user B (step 3) of operation second digital data record and reproducer 1012.User B is that music data is to the 103 online payments of billed services device.After this, user B sends to music data the user C (step 5) of operation the 3rd digital data record and reproducer 1013.User C is that music data is to billed services device 103 online payment (step 6).Here, the user has the right to select for the music data payment music data not to be recommended other people natch.
Equally, this copyright protecting system can be to user's charge in the music data distribution is handled, and this brings wider interests to the copyright holder.In addition, system can leave such as awards such as complimentary tickets and issue music data to encourage the user between them.Detailed content will be described after will staying.
Digital data record and reproducer by user's operation are then described now.Fig. 5 is the block scheme that the structure of first digital data record and reproducer 1011 is shown.Digital data record among Fig. 5 and reproducer comprise that super release data receiving element 401, super release data storage area 402, RMI obtain unit 403, RMI storage area 404, content key extraction unit 405, data sensing element 406.Data compression unit 407, DEU data encryption unit 408, RMI increases unit 409, data access unit 410.Sender ID increases unit 411, buys processing unit 412, content decryption unit 414, playback control unit 415, loudspeaker 416 and user ID storage area 418.
Here notice that loudspeaker 416 can be connected to digital data record and reproducer in the outside.In addition, as below describing, RMI is set obtains unit 403, RMI storage area 404, content key extraction unit 405, data sensing element 406, data compression unit 407, DEU data encryption unit 408 and RMI and increase unit 409, ciphered data etc. is converted to super release data.If do not need this conversion, will omit these elements.Here second with the 3rd digital data record and reproducer 10u and 1013 structures on identical with first digital data record with reproducer 1011, therefore no longer describe.
This digital data record and reproducer are generally realized by PC.Fig. 6 is the diagrammatic sketch that the structure of first digital data record that realized by general computer installation and reproducer 1011 is shown.
Equipment among Fig. 6 comprises the information process unit 2 that can carry out data processing and other parts of control, the program storage unit 3 of the program data that can be stored as the operation information processing unit and need, and the output unit 4 that can show various information and reproduction and outputting music data etc. for the user, can receive user instruction and from the input block 5 of external memory media data, can store general data storage unit 6 such as the data of super release data, can store the data (in the zone that normal operations can't be visited) for user cipher device private data storage unit 7 and can be by the communication unit 8 of the Internet and various server communications.These no parts connect by the synergic system bus.
Input block 5 can for example be made up of CD-ROM reader, DVD reader, keyboard, mouse, and receive user instruction, data, from data such as external record medium such as CD-ROM.Can be for example white display of output unit 4, printer and loudspeaker constitute, and show various information by information process unit 2 generations and playing back music for the user.Information process unit 2 can for example comprise CPU, and carries out various data processing, to control other element, protects the copyright of numerical data simultaneously.To describe these different data processing below in detail.
Here, information process unit 2 is carried out these different pieces of informations processing by program.Program storage in program storage unit 3, and is sent to information process unit 2 as required.Can so dispose program storage unit 3, programme information is stored into such as (comprising hard disk unit or semiconductor memory) recording mediums such as read-only storages or such as CD (being CD, DVD) and semiconductor memory card etc. alternately in the recording medium.
If but the recording medium of using is alternate type, it can with the program exchange of new in addition storage.
General data storage cell 6 is made of and storer that can write readable such as hard disk drive and semiconductor memory etc., and storage does not need the data (such as super release data) to user cipher device.Private data storage unit 7 can be such as storeies such as hard disk or specialized hardwares, or the inner storer that is provided with the storage area of encryption, and will need the data storage of user cipher device in the general operation zone that is beyond one's reach.Communication unit 8 can for example be made of modulator-demodular unit and router, and by the Internet, with content server 102, billed services device 103, or other digital data record is communicated by letter with reproducer.
Here notice that digital data record and reproducer are not limited to PC, can also realize by the so-called STB (top box is set) of recorded announce program.
Describe below as shown in Figure 5 first digital data record and the operation of reproducer 1011.The work difference of this equipment between super release data and clear data.What will describe below is first kind of situation, and promptly user A receives super release data, i.e. first super release data as shown in Figure 2 or the second super release data shown in Figure 3.In Fig. 5, from content server 102, the second or the 3rd digital recording and reproducer 1012 or 1013 (by other user operation), or the first and second super release data are offered super release data receiving element 401 such as external record medium 417 such as CD.Then data storage is arrived super release data storage area 402.The memory location of data is write in the super release data management information that is stored in the secret zone (will be discussed in more detail below).Though can provide the zone of maintaining secrecy separately by other storage area, in this equipment, it is arranged in the super release data storage area 402.
Second kind of situation is described below, and wherein, user A is from receiving the unencrypted music data such as external record medium such as CD 417.This unencrypted music data can be from content server 102 or other device.But, if such situation then almost can't realize the protection to copyright, so do not consider this data here.In addition, do not increase unit 409 and configuration digital data record and reproducer if do not use RMI to obtain unit, RMI storage area 404, content key extraction unit 405, data sensing element 406, data compression unit 407, DEU data encryption unit 408 and RMI, then do not carry out following operation.
In Fig. 5, data sensing element 406 is read the unencryption music data from external record medium 417, and it is corresponding to the content 205 that comprises voice data 204.RMI obtains unit 403 and obtains authorization administration information from content server 102 or external recording medium 417.The authorization administration information that obtains is stored in the RMI storage area 404.
Fig. 7 is a process flow diagram, first digital data record and reproducer 1011 is shown for obtaining the detail operations of authorization administration information.In step S901, RMI obtains unit 403 from obtaining content identification information such as external record medium such as CD 417.Content identification information be for identification content provide such as identification codes such as ISRC or heading messages.
In step 902, RMI obtains unit 403 and determines whether external record medium 417 have the authorization administration information (by the content identification information regulation that obtains) corresponding to content.If have, then program enters step S903, otherwise enters step S904.
In step S903, RMI obtains unit 403 and obtains authorization administration information from external record medium 417.Program enters step S905 then.Notice that the authorization administration information that is recorded on the external record medium 417 is encrypted in predetermined encryption system.Here, authorization administration information can be recorded in such as external record medium such as CD, or block such as SC (secure digital) in the secret zone of the recording medium that waits other type.
In step S904, RMI obtains unit 403 and communicates by letter with content server 102 on (ground of maintaining secrecy), and obtains authorization administration information.Then, program enters step S905.
In step S905, the authorization administration information that obtains is stored in the RMI storage area 404, specifically, store in the predetermined secret zone that is arranged on digital data record and reproducer 1011.Perhaps, in predetermined encryption system, authorization administration information is encrypted, and decryption key only is stored in the secret zone.
In step S906, the relevant information of authorization administration information that RMI acquisition unit 403 will obtain recently is added in the authorization administration information admin table, and this admin table is used for managing the authorization administration information of RMI storage area 404.
Fig. 8 is the diagrammatic sketch that the exemplary mechanism of authorization administration information admin table is shown.The authorization administration information admin table comprises call number 1501, content identification information 1502 among Fig. 8, and authorization administration information stored position information 1503.Call number 1501 is assigned to each authorization administration information in the RMI storage area 401 with ascending sequence.In example shown in Figure 8, RMI storage area 404 has seven different authorization administration informations.
Content identification information 1502 comprises the foregoing identifying information, and it all is unique for each authorization administration information.The position of authorization administration information stored position information 1503 expression authorization administration information storages.In example shown in Figure 8, seven different authorization administration informations are stored in separately in the file of stem catalogue in C one driver.
Compress the content of reading by data compression unit 407 in a predefined manner from data sensing element 406.Though needn't compressed content, for for the Internet transmission/reception, littler data size is preferably.For the area size of storage, also be like this.
By the content-encrypt of 408 pairs of compressions of DEU data encryption unit, the key that is used for encrypted content is to be taken out from the authorization administration information that is stored in RMI storage area 404 by content key extracting unit 405.RMI increases unit 409 authorization administration information is added to by in DEU data encryption unit 408 ciphered data.So that produce the first super release data.The first super release data of this generation is stored in the super release data storage area 402, and its memory location is write the super release data management information that is stored in the secret zone.
Fig. 9 illustrates in the diagrammatic sketch of exemplary mechanisms of super release data management information 1605.Super release data management information 1605 among Fig. 9 comprises: call number 1601, data storage location information 1602, and purchase state 1603.Call number 1601 is assigned to each the super release data that is stored in the super release data storage area 402 with ascending sequence.The position of the super release data storage of data storage location information 1602 expressions.In example shown in Figure 9, super release data is stored in seven different files.Whether the super release data of purchase state 1603 expressions is purchased.
If arrive the super release data of super release data storage area 402 is from one in the super release data receiving element 401, and then the purchase state 1603 corresponding to data is " also not buying ".After having finished the book keeping operation processing that below will describe, purchase state 1603 changes over " purchase ".Here, purchase state 1603 can be by predetermined numeral or mark (corresponding to predetermined bit) expression.
If reach the super release data of super release data storage area 402 and be one by data encryption to reading from external record medium 417 by data sensing element 406, and increase that unit 409 is converted to super release data with these data and the data that obtain by RMI, then the purchase state 1603 corresponding to these data is " purchase ".This is because the user has bought external record medium 417.
To describe digital data record and the operation of reproducer 1011 in Fig. 5 below, this operation is used to reproduce this super release data that is stored in wherein, and these data are issued to other user.
With reference to Fig. 5,, extract command unit (not shown) order data addressed location 410 and read suitable super release data from super release data storage area 402 according to the instruction of user's a certain content of reproduction.Data storage cell 410 is followed this instruction then.
But under the situation of finishing book keeping operation processing or preview, content decryption unit 414 is from being taken out content 205 as shown in Figure 2 by the super release data that data access unit 410 extracted and extracted.The reproduction of content that playback control unit 415 controls are extracted is ordered loudspeaker 416 outputting audio datas then.
Describe the operation of this content decryption unit 414 and playback control unit 415 below in detail with reference to Figure 10.Figure 10 is a process flow diagram, is depicted as to reproduce to be stored in the processing that the super release data in the super release data storage area 402 is carried out.
In step S1301, content decryption unit 414 is taken out the content key 202 this authorization administration information 203 that is included in as shown in Figure 2 and the control information 201 of keeping accounts from the super release data of being extracted by data access unit 410.As has been described, specific software is suitable for the authorization administration information key to this decrypts information.
In step S1303, content decryption unit 414 is consulted super release data management information 1605, and checks whether the purchase state 1603 of the super release data that will reproduce is " buying ".If program jumps to step S1305, otherwise, step S1304 entered.
In step S1304, content decryption unit 414 is consulted the book keeping operation control information 201 that comprises in the authorization administration information 203 of deciphering, but and checks whether preview.If of course, then program enters step S1305, otherwise this is the knot card of this processing, and the content of abandoning deciphering.Preview is fine if having several times, then consults number of times in book keeping operation control information 201.Can preview for number of times, can those number of times of preview whenever listen to and once subtract one.
In step S1305, content decryption unit 414 is suitable for the content key 202 that extracts, with the encrypted content deciphering to comprising in the super release data by data storage cell 410 visits and extraction.In addition, the reproduction of content of playback control unit 415 controls to extracting ordered for example outputting music of loudspeaker then.Here,, increase the number of times of listening in the authorization administration information 203 for the number of times of listening to of recorded content, and then to information encryption, and change back the super release data that stores in the super release data storage area 402.Similarly, when the number that allows preview is set up, the number in authorization administration information 203 is reduced, and then this information is encrypted once more, and rotates back into the super release data that is used to store.In addition, if keep accounts, then the corresponding states of buying 1603 is converted to " also not buying " at once after playing for listening to each time.
The situation of content distribution being given other user is described below.With reference to Fig. 5, issue the order of some super release data corresponding to the user, be similar to the situation of reproduction, extract 410 visits of command unit order data addressed location and extract the super release data that is suitable for.It is specific user ID search subscriber ID storage area 418 that sender ID increases unit 411, so that produce the super release data 505 of work post thus.The second super release data 505 that is produced is sent to second digital data record and reproducer 1012.Here, data can send to other digital data record and reproducer safely, or are recorded in the recording medium (such as SD card etc.) that is easy to carry about with one, and pass in other user's hands.
Below, describe structure and operation that sender ID increases unit 411 in detail.Figure 11 illustrates the block scheme that sender ID increases the detailed structure in unit 411.Sender ID among Figure 11 increases unit 411 and comprises that user ID obtains unit 501, user ID ciphering unit 502, user ID increases unit 503 and management information obtains unit 504.
User ID obtains unit 501 from the zone of maintaining secrecy, and promptly user ID storage area 418 obtains specific user ID.Specific user ID is the identification code that offers each user or digital data record and reproducer uniquely.Here notice that specific user ID can be stored in the user ID storage area 418 in advance, or can provide server or billed services device 103 to provide by ID by preset program.
Management information obtains unit 504 and reads the super release data management information 1605 that is stored in the secret zone by data access unit 410.After this, the purchase state of reading in the super release data management information 1,605 1603 is input to user ID ciphering unit 502.
Then, user ID ciphering unit 502 will be write user ID and obtain the user ID that unit 501 obtains by the purchase state 1603 that management information obtains to import unit 504.Typically, user ID is made of ID and purchase state.After this, user ID ciphering unit 502 is encrypted user ID under predetermined encryption system.
User ID increase unit 503 will by user ID ciphering unit 502 encrypt user ID be added to by 410 visits of data access unit and the super release data extracted, produce the second super release data 505 thus.
Being not to be provided with under the situation of the first super release data of user ID 301 by data access unit 410 visit and the super release data extracted, can only provide the sender ID.On the other hand, the second super release data for being provided with user ID can add sender ID in every way.
For example, can before sender ID adds, remove the user ID that has been provided with, or follow according to the number of times order by sender ID.Under the situation of back, promptly sender ID is a plural number, and its quantity can be restricted to several at last.Here, user ID is assumed to be latter two, specifically, the sender ID back of this equipment is another sender ID, and this sender ID belongs to that equipment of issuing these data.
In this manner, no matter (promptly by 410 visits of data access unit and the super release data of extracting which kind of type, the first and second super release data), user ID increases unit 503 and adds the user ID of encryption in its stem, thus user ID be at the most latter two.Produce the second super release data 505 thus.
The purchase that describes below in digital data record and the reproducer 1011 is handled.As mentioned above, the super release data that is stored in the super release data storage area 402 comprises the also data for buying.Therefore, according to user's purchase instruction, buy command unit (not shown) order purchase processing unit 412 and read super release data storage area 402 for the super release data that is suitable for.Then, buy processing unit 412 and follow order, handle by book keeping operation then.

(the 3rd embodiment)
According to the 3rd embodiment,, the content distribution form of so-called SDAF (secure digital audio format) is described below as specific examples in the super release data described in first to second embodiment.With reference to Figure 18 to 39, the details of relevant SDAF is at first described, describe how to use SDAF with reference to Figure 18 to 39 then.
Content distribution form (SDAF) according to present embodiment is used to describe content of multimedia, comprises audio frequency.Image, video, text and file data.Here being called the SDAF title with the described content of multimedia of SDAF.Here each the expression data that comprises the SDAF title are called content element (below be abbreviated as CEL).Assign a CEL identifier exclusive in the SDAF title (below be abbreviated as CELID) for each CEL.
This SDAF title is issued in the unit that the SDAF title is divided into so-called SDAF bag.Assign a Packet Identifier exclusive in whole publishing system for each SDAF bag.Figure 18 is the figure that an example of SDAF bag is shown.As shown in figure 18,
SDAF title 2000 is made of a plurality of SDAF bags.Each bag 2001 is made of stem 2011, pilot data 2012, a plurality of CEL 2013 and quotation (offer) 2014.
Stem 2011 comprises the information such as position, size and attribute such as each data in the bag.These information define the structure of bag.Pilot data 2012 is the Play Control information of specifying the operation of player when playing the SDAF title.Consult the CEL that is included in the described bag of pilot data or other bag from pilot data 2012.By each the expression data that constitutes the SDAF title are encrypted, specifically,, audio frequency, image, video, text or file data obtain CEL 2013 by being encrypted.The decruption key that is used for CEL 2013 is decrypted and CELID constitute right to being called key.But quotation 2014 comprise a plurality of keys to and the purchase regulation of describing the right purchasing price of each key and life cycle.
Figure 19 a is the figure that three types SDAF bag is shown to 19c.Be similar to Figure 18, the complete packet 2001 shown in Figure 19 c comprises stem 2011, pilot data 2012, a plurality of CEL 2013 and offers 2014.Quotation bag 2002 shown in Figure 19 a comprises stem 2011, pilot data 2012 and offers 2014, but how not comprise CEL 2013.CEL bag 2003 shown in Figure 19 b comprises stem 2011 and a plurality of CEL 2013.Because pilot data 2012 is that broadcast SDAF title is required, thus complete bag 2001 and quotation bag 2002 can only be play, and can not ce play L bag 2003.
The CEL bag is used for cutting apart the SDAF title according to distribution channel.For example, when using the CD-ROM distribution, the SDAF title is recorded among the CD-ROM as a complete bag.On the other hand, when issuing, the SDAF title is divided into a complete bag and a plurality of CEL wraps and issue by the Internet.For example, the SDAF title being divided into a complete bag that comprises audio frequency CEL and a plurality of CEL that comprises video CEL (consulting) from complete bag wraps and issues.
In addition, as shown in figure 20, can be divided into a plurality of SDAF bags to the SDAF title by magnetic track (track).In bag shown in Figure 20 is cut apart, the SDAF title 2020 of the voice data that comprises five magnetic tracks is divided into three bags 2021 to 2023.First to H bag 2021 to 2023 has bag title Slnglel, SlngleZ and album (collection of records) respectively.First and Th bag 2021 and 2022 comprise that all the audio frequency CEL and being used to of a magnetic track controls the pilot data of the broadcast of this CEL.The 3rd bag 2023 comprises one corresponding to the audio frequency CEL of three magnetic tracks and be used for the pilot data that controlling packet is contained in first to three guarantees 2021 to 2023 all audio frequency CEL broadcast.Like this, by the SDAF title being divided into a plurality of SDAF bags, can make the size decreases of each data, and be easy to handle each data.
Below be described according to the order of the stem, quotation, pilot data and the CEL that constitute the SDAF bag.
Stem 2011 is at first described.Here, SDAF bag shown in Figure 21 as an example, the stem 2031 of SDAF bag 2030 is described.In SDAF bag 2030, suppose that here the size of pilot data 2032 and the size of quotation 2034 all are hexadecimal 400H.This bag comprises three CEL 2033, and its type ad initio is audio frequency, image and file.Here the size of supposing these CEL ad initio is hexadecimal 400000H, 18000H and 8000H.
Figure 22 is the figure that the structure of stem 2031 is shown.In stem 2031, store the data of the following stated successively, stem is of a size of hexadecimal BCH.Notice that the C Plus Plus shown in can Figure 23 and 24 is described the structure of stem 2031.Figure 23 and 24 illustrates the continuous source code that is divided into two, before cutting apart, after source code 2062 shown in Figure 24 is connected on source code shown in Figure 23 2061.
At the section start of stem 2031, having stored the indication file is the magic number 2041 (4 bytes) of SDAF form.The value of magic number 2041 is character string " SDAF ".Then, stored the version number 2042 (4 bytes) of SDAF.Then, bag ID 2043 (16 bytes) and bag size 2044 (4 bytes) have been stored.Then, stored the number 2047 of the CEL in pilot data positional information 2045 (SDAFLOCAT10N.NAV among Figure 23), quotation positional information 2046 (SDAFLOCATIONOFFER among Figure 23) and the bag.Then, store the CEL information 2048 (SDAF.LOCAT10N.CE among Figure 24) of each CEL.At last, stored the CEL attribute list 2049 of the attribute of indicating each CEL.
The position and the size of pilot data positional information 2045 indication pilot data 2032.The position and the size of the 2046 indication quotations 2034 of quotation positional information.These two information all are made of side-play amount (offset) (4 bytes) and each size (4 bytes) thereof with SDAF bag section start.
CEL information 2048 is by CELID20S1 (16 bytes), CEL type 2052 (2 bytes).CEL encryption type 2053 (2 bytes), CEL Data Position information 2054 and CEL attribute list positional information 2055 constitute.CLE ID20S1 is a content element identifiers exclusive in the SDAF title.CEL type 2052 is got any value in audio frequency, image, video, text and the file.CEL encryption type 2053 indication is used for algorithm that CEL is encrypted.CEL Data Position information 2054 and CEL attribute list positional information 2055 all are made of side-play amount (4 bytes) and each size (4 bytes) thereof with SDAF bag section start.If side-play amount or be of a size of 0 then means not have data.
CEL attribute list 2049 is to the specified attribute inventory of each CEL type.Audio frequency CEL attribute list (SDAFATTRWUDIO among Figure 24) comprises the CODEq coding decoder at least), measure in the number of number, sample frequency and the voice-grade channel of the position of changing.Image CEL attribute list (SDAFHTTRGRAPHIC among Figure 24) comprises height and the width and the encryption type of image at least.Video CEL attribute list comprises height and the width and the encryption type of video at least.The text attribute table comprises the encryption type of text at least, moves (muSlc shift) JID (Japanese Industrial Standards) such as Unicode (Unified coding standard) or music.File CEL attribute list comprises that at least the MIME multipurpose internet mail extends) type.
CEL attribute list 2049 is not defined as the table of regular length, but defines to the variable length marks structure shown in the 25c with Figure 25 a.If the usage flag structure, then shown in Figure 25 a, storage mark length and Tag ID before data.For example, visual CEL attribute list is made of attribute tags 2063 and encryption type mark 2064.The usage flag structure is come the no element of named list, thereby can be added to a new table element this data layout or can only change data layout by increasing by a mark.Specify the CEL attribute list by using the mark structure that very likely extends.
Then, quotation 2014 is described.As mentioned above, quotation comprises that a plurality of keys are to the purchase rule right with each key.Each key is to being made of the decruption key and the CEL.ID that are used for CEL is decrypted.Figure 26 is the figure that the corresponding relation between key pair and the CEL is shown.As shown in figure 26, key is made of decruption key 2073 and CEL.ID2074 2072, and each key relates to each CEL2071 to 2072.Quotation comprises that not only the key that is included in the CEL in the SDAF bag is right, comprises that also all keys of the CEL in the SDAF bag that is included in same SDAF title are right.In other words, when a SDAF title being divided into a plurality of SDAF bag, an independent SDAF comprises a quotation, and this quotation comprises that all keys that are included in the CEL in this SDAF title are right.
Use is used to describe the language (being called the managing entitlement language) of the right service condition of key and describes the purchase rule.The right service condition of key comprises to be bought date, life cycle and whether has bought specific CEL or SDAF title.Buy rule by using these service conditions to specify, thereby can sell same CEL with different prices according to these conditions.
Then, pilot data 2012 is described.Pilot data is created by creator of content, thereby the user can use CEL most effectively, limits the logical organization of SDAF title
In SDAF, use XML (extensible Markup Language (and SGML " (it is the mark descriptive language of text formatting) describe pilot data.When coming the data of description structure, use the mark structure of text formatting with XML.Therefore, to compare with binary data be redundant to the data of describing with * ML.But adopting XML is because it has splendid expandability.
In order from pilot data, to consult CEL, use the CEL steady arm.The CEL steady arm be adopt '?

Below, with reference to Figure 40 to 45, describe and how to use SDAF.As mentioned above, SDAF is used to describe content of multimedia, and is mainly used in the form of the distribution of music data.SDAF can be applied to various types of recording mediums, be typically hard disk, such as CDs such as DVD-RAM with such as semiconductor memories such as storage cards.
Except the distribution of music data, SDAF can be used in combination with existing music data.For example, will describe below, SDAF can be used with the music data that meets DVD one audio standard.Similarly, SDAF can be applied to other recording medium, such as DVD one video, CD, video one CD and photo CD etc.
The music data that meets DVD one audio standard comprises LPCM (linear impulsive coded modulation) audio content and NPEG-; The two field picture content.The player display menu screen that meets DVD one audio standard is used for user's interactive operation.In DVD one audio standard, this menu screen is by the background image that preferentially is added to of the maximal value with four look video sub-image, is used for showing, and at video a plurality of rectangular areas is set in image and shows.This rectangular area is called button, and each button is assigned as an order.But the quantity of Show Color and the shape of button are limited, and content originator can't freely design menu screen thus.
Can by in advance with the data recording of the menu screen described among the SDAF in traditional DVD one audio disc, and when playing, use these data and the display menu screen.More particularly, DVD one audio disc has write down content of multimedia and the CEL steering gear of describing among the SDAF, is used for consulting original DVD one audio content from SDAF.Below, DVD one audio disc that records this data on it is called DVD one audio disc of extension, and the player that will be used to play DVD one audio disc of extension is called SDAF one and meets DVD one audio player.
Figure 40 is the diagrammatic sketch that illustrates corresponding to the example of the CEL steering gear of single DVD one audio disc.The CEL steering gear of each content that comprises in original DVD one audio disc of each line display.The CEL steering gear comprises CELID 2201, filename 2202, start address 2203 and end address 2204.CEL.ID2201 is a content designator exclusive in the disc.Filename 2202 is the titles that comprise the file of each content.Start and end address 2203 and 2204 is respectively the starting position of each content in the expression file and the offset value of end position.CEL steering gear record is called the DVDA of extension hereof.The MAP steering gear is recorded in the file of DVDA.MAP by name, for example in the SDAF catalogue in the ROM zone of DVD one audio disc that is arranged on expansion.
Can use the 80AF pilot data to describe all various Play Control functions, play and by the menu function of DVD one audio standard definition such as voice playing sequential control, lantern slide display image.For example, the MPEG-I frame background image that can preferentially be added to by the JPEG button image that will have any amount color is used for showing, and makes each button area and an order association realize menu function.
When the Play Control information translation that is comprised in DVD one audio disc is the SDAF pilot data, by using the CEL steering gear, be CEL.ID with the information translation of expression content.Menu screen is converted to the JPEG button image.The image setting that obtains is in position so, thereby by the background image that preferentially is added to.The pilot data and the button image that obtain in the manner described above are stored in the single SDAF bag, and are recorded in the file of SDAF.SDP by name, for example, the SDAF catalogue in the ROM zone of DVD one audio disc that is arranged at extension.The method of extending DVD one audio disc of playing will be described below.
To describe the SDAF player below, be used to play the content of multimedia of describing by SDAF.The SDAF player is play the music data of distribution in the following manner.At first, player searches bag ID and navigation information, collection needs the CEL.ID of the CEL of broadcast.Player uses several groups of bag ID that collect and CEL.ID search purchase database, to determine whether all purchased mistake of each CEL.If the CE that discovery is not also bought, the then quotation of player analysis of encoding, and by the predetermined price of existing electronic distribution system's payment.After the purchase, will be stored in key in the quotation to storing in the purchase database.If determine to find to need the SDAF that plays to wrap in player, player should wrap ID and send to data distribution equipment.Data distribution equipment wraps to SDAF of player distribution by the bag ID that receives.After having bought all CEL that need play, player uses the key that is stored in the purchase database to CE is deciphered so that play.At this moment, player is a Play Control explanation pilot data.
The SDAF title is divided into one or more SDAF bags, and is issued to player.Figure 41 a illustrates the figure that how to issue the SDAF bag to 41c.In the distributing method shown in Figure 41 a, bag 2301 only comprises audio content, only comprises image or video and graphic content and wrap 2302.In addition, consult the audio content that is included in 2301 from wrapping 2302.Thus, only bought wrap 2301 user can only the audio plays content.Except wrap also bought 2301 wrap 2302 user can playing image content and audio content.Equally, can specify the SDAF title on the existing magnetic track by CEL is added to.
In the distributing method shown in Figure 41 b, bag 2303 comprises a plurality of audio contents and picture material.Equally, single bag can comprise that all are included in the CE in the SDAF title.
As Figure 41.In the shown distributing method, single SDAF title is divided into bag 2304,2305 and 2306, is used for distribution.Bag 2305 comprises the content of magnetic track #1 and wraps 2306 contents that comprise magnetic track #2.In this distributing method, can select to wrap a distribution in 2305 and 2306.
In addition, in player, can produce a new SDAF bag, it comprises the content that the user has.Figure 42 a is that the figure that how to produce the SDAF bag is shown to 42c.In 42c, user Bao Shi is wrapped by the SDAF that the user produces at Figure 42 a, and the bag of buying is the SDAF bag of distribution.The content of being surrounded by thick line is owned by the user.Here suppose that the user has the data of being read by DC, that is, and the audio content of reading from CD, and the picture material that itself produces by him.
Shown in Figure 42 a, the user can produce the bag 2401 that comprises by his all audio contents own.In addition, shown in Figure 42 b, the user can produce and comprise by his all audio frequency own and the bag 2402 of picture material.In addition, as Figure 42.Shown in, the user can produce bag 2404, can find audio content the bag 2403 that is included in purchase from this bag.If play bag 2404, then play audio content and all picture materials of user in the bag that is included in purchase.Therefore, the image that is included in the bag of purchase can be changed into by with the image that produces, and maybe can be added in the bag of purchase by the new image that the user produces.
Below, the SDAF one that describes DVD one audio disc be used to play extension is suitable for DVD one audio player.Player replaces original Play Control information (meeting DVD one audio standard), the controls playing operation by obeying the pilot data of being described by SDAF.Player is read pilot data and CE steady arm from DVD one audio disc that extends, and operates by the pilot data that obedience is read.If find original audio content or picture material from pilot data, player is consulted c day steady arm, with the information of acquisition content stores in which position, and plays this content.Player is read background image from DVD one audio region on the disc, and from SDAF data read button image, and engage them with the display menu screen.
Equally, extend DVD one audio disc by using, existing DVD one audio player can carry out traditional broadcast, and SDAF one adaptation DVD one audio player can be by using the pilot data display menu screen of being described by SDAF.
In the foregoing description, SDAF bag and CEL steering gear are stored in the disc.Perhaps, this data can be by network download to player.This method can be applicable to be sold to user's CD and DVD.In addition, by this method, can consult by use U RL can be by the CEL of communication network access.
Data conversion equipment is described below, and this equipment is used for the content of multimedia of SDAF appointment is copied to the external memory media that is used for portable music player.Here, portable music player constitutes as external memory media by using semiconductor memory, it is characterized in that size is little, in light weight and with the ability of write data therein at a high speed.As shown in figure 43, portable music player comprise can videotex LCD 2501, be used for control plane 2502 that control audio plays and the earphone 2503 that is used for audio frequency output.In addition, the storage card 2500 that is used for stores audio data can be releasably attached to portable music player.Portable music player is play the audio content that meets MPEGZ-AAC, and videotex information.But the data record format of storage card is not SDAF, but exclusive form.
Figure 44 is the block scheme that the structure of data conversion equipment is shown, and the content that this equipment is used for being recorded on DVD one audio disc of extension is converted to predetermined form, and the content of conversion is write the storage card that is used for portable music player.Among Figure 44, suppose the picture material of LPCM one format audio content, MPEG-1 frame format, Play Control information and the other text message of being described by SDAF are recorded in the disc 2601.
At data conversion equipment as shown in Figure 44, data sensing element 2602 is read Play Control information from disc 2601, and provides it to Play Control information analysis unit 2603.The Play Control information of reading is analyzed in Play Control information analysis unit 2603, and whether can play with the content of inspection record on disc 2601 maybe needs conversion.
Then, data sensing element 2602 is read the content that can be play by portable music player in succession from disc 2601, and the content of reading is offered Date Conversion Unit 2605.At this moment, do not read the content that portable music player can't be play.The content that Date Conversion Unit 2605 is read according to the type conversion of storage card 2500.For example, can not change by the portable music player text message that connects broadcast that extends such as title etc.On the other hand, the audio content of LPCM one form is converted to the MPEGZ-ACC form, thereby portable music player can play content.
The Play Control information that Play Control information translation unit 2604 is analyzed according to Play Control information analysis unit 2603 produces the Play Control information that is used for portable music player.The Play Control information that data r/w cell 2606 produces Play Control information translation unit 2604, and the content of Date Conversion Unit 2605 conversions writes storage card 2500.

As the 4th embodiment,, the content distribution form of so-called SDAF (secure digital audio format) is described below as the specific examples of the data that copyright is arranged described in first to the 3rd embodiment.According to Figure 18 to 39, at first SDAF is described in detail, then with reference to Figure 40 to 45, describe and how to use SDAF.
Use is described content of multimedia according to the content distribution form (SDAF) of present embodiment, and it comprises audio frequency, image, video, text and file data.Here will be called the SDAF title by the content of multimedia that SDAF describes.Here the expression data that each comprised the SDAF title are called content is not had element (the following CEL that is called simply).Each CEL assigns a CEL identifier, it be exclusive in the SDAF title (below be called CELID).
The SDAF title is divided into the unit that is called SDAF bag and issues.Each SDAF bag is assigned the identifier of a bag, and it is exclusive in the whole publishing system.Figure 18 is the diagrammatic sketch that the example of SDAF bag is shown.As shown in figure 18, a SDAF title 2000 is made of a plurality of SDAF bags.Each bag 2001 is made of stem 2011, pilot data 2012, a plurality of CEL2013 and a quotation 2014.
Stem 2011 comprises the information such as position, size and attribute such as each data in the bag.This information has been determined the structure of bag.Pilot data 2012 is the Play Control information of the operation of player in playing the SDAF title.From pilot data 2012, consult the CEL that is comprised in the described bag of pilot data or other bags.By encrypting the expression data that each comprises the SDAF title, more particularly, obtain CEL2013 by encrypted audio, image, video, text or file data.Reply is used for decryption key to CEL2013 and CEL ID deciphering, and to be called key right.Quotation 2014 comprises that a plurality of keys are right and describes the purchase regulation of purchasing price, but and the right life cycle of each key.
Figure 19 a is the diagrammatic sketch that the type of three kinds of SDAF bags is shown to 19c.Be similar to Figure 18, the complete bag 2001 shown in Figure 19 c comprises stem 2011, pilot data 2012, a plurality of CEL2013 and offers 2014.Quotation bag 2002 shown in Figure 19 a comprises stem 2011, pilot data 2012 and offers 2014, but do not comprise any CEL2013.CEL bag 2003 shown in Figure 19 b comprises stem 2011 and a plurality of CEL2013.Because pilot data 2012 needs to play the SDAF title, can play complete bag 2001 and quotation bag 2002 separately, but the CEL bag is not all right.
According to the distribution channel, cut apart the SDAF title with the CEL bag.For example, when when using the CD-ROM distribution, in CD-ROM, be complete bag with the SDAF header record.On the other hand, when issuing, the SDAF title is divided into a complete bag and a plurality of CEL wraps and issue by the Internet.For example, the SDAF title is divided into a CEL bag that comprises the complete bag of audio frequency CEL and comprise the video CEL that finds from complete bag, is used for distribution.
In addition, as shown in Figure 20, can pass through magnetic track, the SDAF title is divided into a plurality of SDAF bags.In the cutting apart of as shown in figure 20 bag, the SDAF title 2020 that will comprise the voice data of five magnetic tracks is divided into three bags 2021 to 2023.First to three guarantees 2021 to 2023 have respectively bag the name be called Slnglel, SlngID2, and album.First and second bags 2021 and 2022 all comprise the audio frequency CEL of a magnetic track and are used to control the pilot data of the broadcast of CEL.Three guarantees 2023 comprise the audio frequency CEL of three magnetic tracks and control all and are included in first the pilot data of broadcast of audio frequency CE in the three guarantees 2021 to 2023.Equally, by the SDAF title being divided into a plurality of SDAF bags, can make each data size littler, and easily control each data.
Stem, quotation, pilot data and the CEL that constitutes the SDAF bag described below in order.
Stem 2011 is at first described.Here, selecting SDAF shown in Figure 21 is example, describes the stem 2031 of SDAF bag 2030.In SDAF bag 2030, suppose that here the size of pilot data 2032 and the size of quotation 2034 all are 400H (according to 16 system number scales).This bag comprises H CEL2033, and their form is audio frequency, image and file from the outset.Here the size of supposing these CEL is 400000H, 18000H and 8000H (according to 16 system number scales) from the outset.
Figure 22 is the diagrammatic sketch that the structure of stem 2031 is shown.In stem 2031, store the data that describe below successively, and the stem size is BCH according to 16 system number scales.Note, shown in Figure 23 and 24, can C+ ten language description stems 2031.Figure 23 and 24 is figure that continuous source code is shown, and this source code is divided into two, and before being cut apart, source code 2062 is as shown in figure 24 followed source code shown in Figure 23 2061.
In the beginning of stem 2031, the storage representation file is the magic number (magic number) 2041 (4 byte) of SDAF form.The value of magic number 2041 is character string " SDAF ".Then, the version number 2042 (4 byte) of storage SDAF.Then the ID2043 of storage package (1 byte) and the bag size 2044 (4 byte).Then, the quantity of storing pilot data positional information 2045 (the SDAF LOCATION NAV among Figure 23), quotation positional information 2046 (SDAFLOCAT10NOFFER among Figure 23) and wrapping the CEL in 2047.Then, store the CEL information 2048 (SDAFLOCAT10NCEL among Figure 24) of each CEL.At last, the CEL attribute list 2049 of the attribute of each CEL of storage representation.
The position and the size of pilot data positional information 2045 expression pilot data 2032.The position and the size of the 2046 expression quotations 2034 of quotation positional information.These two information all by from the beginning of SDAF bag depart from and the size (4 byte) of each constitutes.
CEL information 2048 is made of CEL.ID205 (16 byte), CEL type 2052 (2 byte), CEL encryption type 2053 (2 byte), CEL Data Position information 2054 and CEL attribute list positional information 2055.CEL.ID20S1 is a content element identifiers, and it is exclusive in the SDAF title.The algorithm that 2053 expressions of CEL encryption type are used to encrypt CEL.CEL Data Position information 2054 and CEL attribute list positional information 2055 all are to be made of side-play amount (4 byte) and each size (4 byte) thereof with the beginning of SDAF bag.If side-play amount or size are 0, mean not have data.
CEL attribute list 2049 is the inventories of specifying the attribute of each CEL type.Audio frequency CEL attribute list (the audio frequency SADFHTTRHUD10 among Figure 24) comprises quantity, sampling frequency and the voice-grade channel quantity of CODEC, quantized position at least.Image C EL attribute list (the SDAF ATTR GRAPHIC among Figure 24) comprises height and the width and the encryption type of image at least.Video CEL attribute list comprises height and the width and the encryption type of video at least.The text attribute table comprises the encryption type of text at least, moves JID (Japanese Industrial Standards) such as solid size or music.File CEL attribute list comprises mime type (extension of multi-usage internet message) at least.
CEL attribute list 2049 is defined as the on-fixed lengths table, but the variable length marks table, as Figure 25 a to shown in the 25c.If use this mark structure, mark lengths and Tag ID are stored in the data front, shown in Figure 25 a.For example, image C EL attribute list is by signature 2063 and 2064 expressions of encryption type mark.By using this mark structure named list element, new table element can be added to form thus, perhaps can only change data layout by adding a mark.The mark structure that has big expansion potential by use is specified the CEL attribute list.
Quotation 2014 is described below.As mentioned above, quotation comprise a plurality of keys to the right purchase of each key regulation.Each key is to being made of the decryption key and the CEL.ID that are used for CEL deciphering, Figure 26 be illustrate this key to the diagrammatic sketch of CEL correlativity.As shown in figure 26, key is to comprising decruption key 2073 and ID2074.Each key is relevant with each CEL2071 to 2072.Quotation comprises that not only the key of the CEL that is comprised in the SDAF bag is right, comprises that also the key of the CEL that comprises in the SDAF bag of identical SDAF title is right.In other words, when SDAF bag being divided into a plurality of SDAF bag, have only a SDAF to comprise quotation, and this quotation comprise that all keys that are included in the CEL in the SDAF title are right.
By using a kind of language description purchase regulation that is used to describe the right service condition of key, be called rights language.The right service condition of key comprises buys date, life cycle, and whether has bought specific CEL or SDAF title.Buy regulation by using these service conditions to specify, thus, can be according to condition, according to the identical CEL of different sell at competitives.
Pilot data 2012 is described below.Produce pilot data by content originator, thereby the user can use CEL the most effectively, has defined the logical organization of SDAF title.
In SDAF, with XML (extensible SGML (eXtenSlble Markup Language)) pilot data is described, this language is the mark descriptive language of text formatting.When with XML data of description structure, use the mark structure of text formatting.Therefore, compare with binary data, the data of describing with * ML are tediously long.But, owing to having fabulous extendability, XML uses it.
For example surmounts CEL from pilot data, use the CEL steady arm.The CEL steady arm is a string bag ID and ID, they adopt "? " as separator.But the CEI for being comprised in the SDAF bag that comprises pilot data omitted bag ID and separator, and CEL.ID is the CEL steady arm.The CEL steady arm can be specified CEL, and is irrelevant with the physical address of CEL.
Figure 28 is by using the CEL steady arm how to consult the diagrammatic sketch of CE from pilot data.In Figure 28, pilot data 2081 and expression data 2082 are shown as an example.Expression data 2082 comprise by the audio frequency CEL2083 that is encoded by MPEGZ-AAC with by JPCG image encoded CEL2084.The bag ID of audio frequency CEL2083 and CEL.ID are 1, and among the image C EL2084 those are respectively 1 and 2.In this case, and the CEL steady arm that comprises in the pilot data 2081 " 1? 1 " represent its bag ID " 1 ", audio frequency C the sixth of the twelve Earthly Branches 2083 of " CEL[D " " 1 ".CEL steady arm " 1 " " represent that it wraps DD " 1 ", the image C EL2084 of CEL[D " 2 ".As from this example, knowing, has only the variation of the structure that produces the SDAF title variation of the bag ID of CEL steady arm afterwards just causing SDAF bag.Therefore, the SDAF title can be constituted single bag, or the SDAF title is divided into a plurality of SDAF bags.

CEL2013 is described below.CEL has five types: audio frequency CEL, image C EL, video CEL.Text CEL and file CEL.Data layout and parameter are assigned to the CEL of each type with SDAF.
Be that the data that comprise are voice datas among the audio frequency CEL, encode to such an extent that meet MPEGZ-AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) (low-complexity file).Notice that MPEGZ-AAC specifies MPEGZ-AAC with ISO/IEC13818-7:
1997 (E) infotech one moves the universal coding part 7 of image and related audio information, Advanced Audio Coding (AAC).Suppose that by M P EGZ-ACC bitstream encoded be ADTS (audio data transport stream) form.In addition, the parameter limit of describing among the ID011EC13818-7 is for as shown in figure 31.In these parameters, sampl ingfrequencyindex and channelconflguratlon are owing to the selection by the LC-file of ID0/IDC13818-7 appointment is restricted.In addition, mean bit rate is 64 or 128kbps.
The data epigraph data that comprised among the image C EL, it encodes to such an extent that meet JPEG, MPEG-1 frame, PNG (portable network figure).Figure 32,33 and 34 illustrates JPEG, the table of the specification of MPEG-I frame and PNG.The specification limits of algorithm that imposes on the encryption of image C EL is as shown in these figures situation.
The data that are included among the video CEL are video datas, encode to such an extent that meet MPEGZ.Figure 35 is the table that the specification of MPEGZ is shown.The specification limits of algorithm of encryption that imposes on video CEL is for as shown in figure 35.
The data that comprise among the text CEL are PLAIN text or XML texts of SDAF.Encryption type is that solid size or music move JID.
As the example of file CEL, description now comprises the time search mapping CEL of time search mapping as data.The mapping of this time search is a table, is made of the address of audio frame.Figure 36 is the figure that the structure of time search mapping is shown.As shown in figure 36, time search mapping 2090 is made of a stem 2091 and a plurality of project 2092.Figure 37,38a and 38b are form and diagrammatic sketch, are shown specifically stem 2091.As Figure 37, shown in 28a and the 38b, stem 2091 comprises the reproduction time between the project of describing with millisecond, and the project sum.Figure 39 is the table that is shown specifically each project.As shown in figure 39, each project comprises that audio frame goes into day the address of point at it.First project is represented the starting position of the audio frame that comprises among the audio frequency 0*L.
Notice that in the present embodiment, use MPEGZ-AAC compressed package is contained in the music data among the audio frequency CEL.Perhaps, can use MP3 (MPEGI audio layer 3), Doby one AC3, or DTS (Digital Theater System).
Describe how to use SDAF below with reference to Figure 40 to 45.As mentioned above, SDAF is the form that is used to describe content of multimedia, and is mainly used in the music data distribution.SDAF can be imposed on various types of recording mediums, typically hard disk, CD (such as DVD-RAM) and semiconductor memory (such as storage card).
Except the distribution of music data, SDAF can be used in existing music data and combines.For example, will describe below, SDAF can be used in combination with the music data that meets DVD one audio standard.Similarly, SDAF can be applied to other recording medium, such as DVD one video, CD, video one CD and CD photo.
The music data that meets DVD one audio standard comprises LPCM (linear impulsive code modulated) audio content and MPEG-1 two field picture content.Meet the interactive operation display menu screen of the player of DVD one audio standard for the user.In DVD one audio standard, by preferential maximized four sub-video images are added to background image with demonstration, and a plurality of rectangular areas are set in video image at these, show this menu screen.These rectangular areas are called button, and each button appointment has an order.But, be that quantity and shape have some restrictions to the Show Color of button, so content originator can't freely design menu screen.
This problem can be by the menu screen data recording that will describe with SDAF in advance in traditional DVD one audio disc, and uses these data presentation menus and solve when playing.More particularly, with the content of multimedia of SDAF description, and the CEL steering gear, be used for consulting original DVD one audio content from SDAF.Below, DVD one audio disc that records this data on it is called DVD one audio disc of extension, and the player that will be used to play DVD one audio disc of extension is called DVD one audio player that meets SDAF.
Figure 40 is an example that illustrates corresponding to the CEL steering gear of single DVD one audio disc.Each line display is included in the CEL steering gear of each content in original DVD one audio disc.The CEL steering gear comprises CEL.ID2201, file name 2202, start address 2203 and end address 2204.This CELID2201 is an energy content designator exclusive in the disc.File name 2202 is the titles that comprise the file of each content.Start and end address 2203 and 2204 is offset values of representing each content in starting position and end position and the file respectively.The CEL steering gear is recorded in the file of DVDA.MAP by name, for example the SDAF catalogue in being arranged on the ROM zone of extending DVD one audio disc.
Can use the SDAF pilot data to describe all various Play Control functions that define by DVD one audio standard, such as voice playing sequential control, the broadcast of slideshow image and menu function etc.For example, can be added to MPEG-I frame background image,, realize menu function to show and each button area is associated with a catalogue by the JPEG button image that preferentially just has any amount CF.
When the Play Control information translation that comprises in DVD one audio disc is the SDAF pilot data, by using the CEL steering gear, be CELID with the information translation of expression content.Menu screen is converted to the JPEG button image.With the image setting that obtains in position so, so that preferentially be added to background image.The pilot data and the button image that obtain in the manner described above are stored in the single SDAF bag, and are recorded in the file of SDAF.SDP by name, for example the SDAF catalogue in the ROM zone of DVD one audio disc that is arranged on extension.The method of extending DVD one audio disc of playing will be described below.
The SDAF player is described below, is used to play the content of multimedia of describing by SDAF.The SDAF player is play the music data of being issued in the following manner.At first, player searches bag ID and navigation information are to collect the CEL.ID that plays required CEL.Player uses several groups of bag ID and CEL.ID search purchase database, determines whether each CEL is purchased.If it is purchased to find to go back neither one CEL, the then quotation of player analysis of encoding, and by the predetermined price of existing electronic distribution system's payment.After the purchase, will be stored in key in the quotation to storing in the purchase database.If determine not find to play required SDAF bag in player, player will wrap ID and be sent to data distribution equipment.This data distribution equipment will send to player with the SDAF bag by the bag ID that receives.Buying after all play needed CEL, player uses the key that is stored in the purchase database to the CEL deciphering, to play.At this moment, the player explanation is used for the pilot data of Play Control.
This SDAF title is divided into one or more SDAF bags, and sends to player.Figure 41 a is the diagrammatic sketch that example how to issue the SDAF bag is shown to 41c.In the distributing method shown in Figure 41 a, bag 2301 comprises only audio content, only comprises an image or video and graphic content and wrap 2302.In addition, consult the audio content that is included in 2301 from wrapping 2302.Therefore, only bought wrap 2301 user only can the audio plays content.Wrap 2302 user and can play graphical content and audio content except wrapping to have bought 2301.Equally, can specify the SDAF title in the existing magnetic track by CEL is added to.
In the distributing method shown in Figure 41 b, bag 2303 comprises a plurality of audio contents and graphical content.Equally, single bag can comprise the CEL that is comprised in all SDAF titles.
As Figure 41.In the shown distributing method, single SDAF title is divided into bag 2304,2305 and 2306, is used for distribution.Bag 2305 comprises the content of magnetic track #1, and bag 2306 comprises the content of magnetic track #2.In this clearance method, one that may select to wrap in 2305 and 2306 is used for distribution.
In addition, in player, can produce new SDAF bag, it comprises the content that the user has.Figure 42 a is the figure that the example that how to produce the SDAF bag is shown to 42c.In 42c, user Bao Shi is wrapped by the SDAF that the user produces at Figure 42 a, and the bag of buying is the SDAF bag of distribution.The content that is centered on by thick line is that the user has.Here hypothesis, the user has the data of reading from CD, i.e. the audio content of reading from CD, and by his 1 graphical content of herself making.
Shown in Figure 42 a, the user can produce a bag 2401, comprises by his 7 audio contents of herself making.In addition, shown in Figure 42 b, the user can produce bag 2402, comprises his 1 audio frequency that herself has and graphical content.Have again, as Figure 42.Shown in, the user can make a bag 2404, can wrap 2404 audio contents of consulting in the bag 2403 that is included in purchase by this.If play bag 2404, then play audio content in the bag that is included in purchase and the graphical content that has by the user.Therefore, the image of image modification for being made by the user that is included in the bag of purchase maybe can be added in the bag of purchase by the new image that the user makes.
Below, DVD one audio player that meets SDAF is described, be used to play DVD one audio disc of extension.Player is by following the pilot data described by SDAF (but not original Play Control information, it meets DVD one audio standard) controls playing operation.Player is read pilot data and CEL steady arm from DVD one audio disc that extends, and by following the pilot data operation of reading.If find original audio content or picture material from pilot data, then player is consulted the CEL steady arm, obtaining information about the memory contents position, and play content.Player is read background image from DVD one audio region on the disc, and from SDAF data read button image, also in conjunction with them with the display menu screen.
Equally, by DVD one audio disc that use to extend, existing DVD audio player can be carried out traditional broadcast, can be by using the pilot data display menu screen of being described by SDAF and meet DVD one audio player that SDAF one adapts to.
In the foregoing description, SDAF bag and CEL steering gear are stored in the disc.Perhaps, this data can be arrived player by network download.This method can be used for giving CD and the DVD that is sold to the user.In addition, in this way, can consult by use URL can be by the CEL of communication network access.
