The users and the central units are linked interactively. It is an archive function provided to keep existing records in Localize memory and timing of selection recorded video and audio programs to capture a to be able to predict the next access option. A Entry and acquisition of additional system data, for example of access frequencies, by means of this Archive function is not described. Likewise, at the known system does not provide extracts from stored Programs while accessing these programs available (see page 7, lines 20 to 22).
- WO 86/01326 is a money-operated information system known the storage units and user stations includes. It is possible with this system, the duration of user access to record and save. Title requirements can also be saved and displayed.
- the invention has for its object a dialog Music machine system to be provided that the acquisition of additional Information about the actual user and Title data also allows for operators and users.
- This task is according to the invention in a music machine solved with the features of claim 1.
- Advantageous further training the music machine according to the invention are the subject of subclaims.
- the music automatons thus display an input unit and at least one speaker.
- the system further comprises a central unit with a Central memory in which playable tracks are stored.
- the central memory e.g. Cover, texts, video clips, etc. saved.
- the central unit is furthermore over long-distance data transmission lines with the entertainment devices connected.
- Access and storage unit for special operator queries and evaluations as well as for user queries.
- the music machines are also with at least headphones.
- an extract of one or more Title from the central store and / or from the additional Access and storage unit can be accessed via the headphones parallel to the current playback mode can be listened to for a title selection.
- the user of the Music machines can do this while running Play mode available from a title depending on the favor find the selection made. For such a choice for example 10 titles can e.g. DM 1, - calculated will. This way, the operator will not miss a thing Business and the user has the feeling of the selection fee of DM 0.10 per title in the event of rejection To have saved 0.90 DM and his money better or more targeted.
- the additional access and storage unit for recording the playing frequency of titles or title collections. So it can play frequencies additionally evaluated according to various criteria will.
- a new aspect of the usability of music machine systems results from the fact that the additional access and memory unit only coded titles in a certain way or title collections.
- This feature can be an instant provide central recording of new titles or CDs, about the usual hit parade creation of music automatons goes out. Broadcasters, music producers, Artists etc. can be relatively inexpensive and nevertheless reliably get a measurable result, as well their titles arrive.
- Records can be saved by the playable Titles or collections of titles are independent. So enables it the system according to the invention, about the offer of To inform the music scene in the regional area, for example Place and time or date of a rock concert, open-air concert, etc., also new records from regionally known artists. These could also be done directly by means of the system according to the invention be ordered.
- system according to the invention could also be used as a medium serve for young artists, for example on points out performances or its services so can be requested.
- a selection device by means of the central memory or the or Music automatons available tracks to access the additional and storage unit are transmitted and to a title collection be put together on the music machine playable or transferable to an external storage medium is.
- individually compiled CDs are provided.
- the user highlighted e.g. the desired tracks, either in the music machine or put together directly in the central unit or whose codes are saved together. Is the game duration reached a CD, so a corresponding title collection be issued. It can be provided, for example be number codes for certain combinations of titles save.
- FIG. 1 schematically illustrated in FIG coin operated music machine is a central unit 2 and a number of music automats 4 are provided.
- the central unit 2 includes a not shown Computer, which is e.g. to be a personal computer can. With the central unit 2 is an input / output unit 14 connected to a variety of remote data transmission lines 16 is connected, where it e.g. are ISDN lines.
- the remote data transmission lines 16 are each via a corresponding input / output unit e.g. with modem 20 or with ISDN interface connected to a computer 21 of a music machine 4.
- the computer 21 is connected to a via a line 22
- Screen unit 24 connected to the display of the music machine represents. Be on the screen unit 24 e.g. the music pieces that can be played using the music automaton is displayed, e.g. the music pieces, artists, hit list and the like can be sorted.
- the Computer 21 via a line 26 with an input keyboard 28 connected.
- the selection commands entered using the keyboard are displayed on the screen unit 24 and make the selected piece of music visible or featured.
- the final keyboard can be used for the final selection include a confirmation button.
- With the calculator is furthermore via a further line 30 a loudspeaker system 32 connected. Otherwise, the input keyboard and screen output also replaced by a touch screen system will.
- the music machine does not need a track storage on site. He can be designed so far that he only the one to choose input / output units required for pieces of music and the necessary playback units such as the speaker system 32 contains.
