- the TV signal receiver in accordance with the invention is characterized in that the TV signal receiver comprises a second input terminal for receiving a second input signal, whereby the storage device is adapted to derive second TV signal blocks from the second input signal and for storing said second TV signal blocks in the memory, and user activatable input means for receiving a first command to be supplied to the control means in order to generate the first control signal.
- the user can determine when a second TV signal block, which is received via a second input terminal and which comprises commercials or other information, will be supplied to the output terminal.
- the TV signal receiver may further be provided with a second memory, writing means for storing the first TV signal in said second memory, and reading means for reading a delayed version of the first TV signal from said second so as to enable a delayed supply of said first TV signal to said signal combination unit.
- the possibility to delay the first TV signal has the advantage for the viewer to view the whole second TV signal block and to resume viewing the program following the replaced interruption in the first TV signal. After supplying the second TV signal block to the output, a delay version of the first TV signal is supplied to the output.
- Figure 3 shows a third embodiment of a system provided with a broadcaster, a service provider and at least one TV signal receiver according to the invention, in which the TV signal receiver comprises a memory for delaying the received first TV signal.
- Fig. 1 shows diagrammatically a system 1 comprising a broadcaster 3 and service provider 4 and a TV signal receiver 5.
- the TV signal receiver 5 has a first input terminal 7, a second input terminal 8 and an output terminal 9.
- the TV signals transmitted by the broadcaster 3 are received at the first input terminal 7 of the TV signal receiver 5. These signals will be further referred to as the first input signal.
- the signals comprising commercials or other information, transmitted by the service provider 4 are received at the second input terminal 7 of the TV signal receiver 5.
- These signals will be further referred to as the second input signal.
- the first input signal relates to the first TV signals, in other words, the main programs. These first TV signals have interruptions.
- the second input signal relates to the second TV signal blocks comprising information such as commercials, stock exchange news, the weather forecast, or commercials on given subjects, etc.
- the content of such information however, often considered being too diverse by the user who wishes to receive, for example only information about given subjects. It is an object of the invention to provide a solution in this respect.
- the first input signal received at the input terminal 7 is applied to a tuner 11, so that a first TV signal is selected from the presented first TV signals.
- the first TV signal is applied to a first input 27 of a signal combination unit 19.
- the second input signal received at the second input terminal 8 is applied to a storage device 17.
- the storage device 17 is adapted to retrieve second TV signal blocks from the second input signal and to store the second TV signal blocks in a memory.
- the TV signal receiver further comprises user activatable input means 23 arranged for receiving a first command to be supplied to a control unit 25.
- the input means can be in the form of buttons on the TV signal receiver or a remote control, but can also be voice controlled input means.
- the control unit 25 is adapted to generate a first control signal in dependence of said first command.
- the storage device 17 is further adapted to read in dependence of the first control signal, at least one second TV signal block from the memory for supplying to a second input 29 of the signal combination unit 19.
- the signal combination unit 19 is adapted to replace a part of the first TV signal by the second TV signal so as to obtain a composite TV signal in response to said first control signal.
- the composite TV signal is applied to an output terminal 9 of the TV signal receiver.
- the first input signal comprises a lot of first TV signals representing TV channels comprising TV programs.
- the tuner 11 selects a desired first TV signal from the first input signal.
- the first TV signal is applied to the output terminal 9 via the signal combination unit 19.
- the first TV signal comprises TV programs such as movies, documentaries, news, weather forecast, introductions to TV programs, commercials etc. If the viewer regards apart of the first TV signal not interesting, he can apply to the user activatable input means 23 a first command.
- the control unit 25 In dependence of the first command the control unit 25 generates the first control signal.
- the storage device reads a second TV signal block. The second TV signal block is applied to the signal combination unit 19.
- the signal combination unit 19 replaces said uninteresting part of the first TV signal by said second TV signal block applied by the storage device 17 to obtain a composite TV signal.
- the composite TV signal is reproduced on a display device coupled to the TV signal receiver.
- the signal combination unit 19 may be adapted to replace the whole images in the first TV signal by the images of the second TV signal block, but could also be adapted to generate a composite signal comprising images, whereby the images of the second TV signal block replace only a part of the images of the first TV signal, for example, as a picture in picture image. By doing so, the user is able to increase the viewing pleasure.
- the TV signal receiver may be provided with user activatable input means 23 for presenting a user profile of themes or subjects about which information is desired.
- the user profile may be used by the storage device to store only those second TV signal blocks in the memory, which correspond to the user profile.
- the user profile acts as a filter for the information to be stored in the memory. This method has the advantage that not all the received second TV signal blocks will be stored in the memory and thus less memory is needed to store the second TV signal blocks.
- the user profile could also be used to select second TV signal blocks stored in the memory to be read.
- the user activatable input means 23 may further be adapted to receive a second command from the user.
- the control unit 25 is adapted to generate a second control signal in dependence of the second command.
- the storage device is adapted in dependence of the second control signal to stop reading a second TV signal block from the memory and to read another second TV signal block from the memory to be supplied to the signal combination unit 19. In this way, the user is able to stop viewing a second TV signal block that is uninteresting for the user and to view another second TV signal block.
- FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of a system provided with a broadcaster, a service provider and at least one TV signal receiver according to the invention, in which second possibility to obtain a profile is illustrated.
- the TV signal receiver comprises a first detector 31.
- the first detector detects characteristics of parts of the first TV signal, such as theme, subject, kind of commercial or product promoted.
- the detected characteristic is applied to a unit 33.
- the first detector may be adapted to detect more then one characteristic of a part of the first TV signal, such as an interruption.
- the unit 33 counts the number of times an interruption with a determined characteristic is detected by the first detector 31. These counting values do give information about the number of times that the user could view an interruption with a specific characteristic.
- the second detector 35 detects a characteristic of the second TV signal blocks read from the memory. Characteristics of a second TV signal block may be the theme, the subject, the kind of commercial or the product promoted. The second detector 35 may be adapted to detect more then one characteristic of a second TV signal block. The detected characteristic is applied to the unit 33. The unit 33 is further adapted to count the number of times a second TV signal block with a determined characteristic is detected by the second detector 35. These counting values do give information about the number of times that the user could view a second TV signal block with a specific characteristic. Further the unit 33 counts the number of times the reading of a second TV signal block with said determined characteristic is stopped by receiving the second command from the user.
- Figure 3 shows a further embodiment of the system in figure 2.
- the TV signal receiver is provided with third detector 39.
- the third detector detects an event whereby the first TV signal is continued after an interruption and applied to the first input 27 of the signal combination unit 19, while also a second TV signal block read from the storage device is applied to the second input 29 of the signal combination unit 19. After detecting said event, the third detector generates an indication signal for supplying to a second output terminal 41 of the TV signal receiver 5.
- the indication signal can be used to signal the user that the program in the first TV signal after the interruption is resumed, as a result of which the user will not be able to view said program when continuing viewing the second TV signal block.
- the indication signal can be an acoustic signal or on the form of a warning message to be displayed on a TV screen.
- the user activatable input means 23 are further adapted to receive a third command. In dependence of the third command the control unit 25 generates a third control signal to order the storage unit 17 to stop reading the second TV signal block from the
- the TV signal receiver in figure 3 further, comprises a writing unit 43 for writing the first TV signal in a second memory 45 and a reading unit 47 for reading the first TV signal from the memory to obtain a delayed version of the first TV signal for supplying to the signal combination unit 19.
- the indication signal generated by the third detector 29 is applied to the reading unit 47.
- the reading unit is adapted to inhibit reading the first TV signal from the second memory 45 in response to said indication signal and to resume reading the first TV signal, when no longer a second TV signal block is read from the first memory, which is indicated by the first and second control signal. In this manner, a second TV signal block read from the memory can always be displayed completely on the TV screen, without missing the beginning part of a TV program received while the second TV signal block was outputted.
- Said event happens when the duration of a second TV signal block is longer than the remaining time of an interruption in the first TV signal.
- the third detector 39 detects the end of an interruption in the signal supplied to the signal combination unit, while a second TV signal block is supplied to the signal combination unit 19, the reading unit 47 inhibits reading the first TV signal from the second memory 45. After detecting that the second TV signal block is completely received at the second input 29 of the signal combination unit 19, the reading unit 47 resumes reading the first TV signal from the second memory and supplies a delayed version of the first TV signal to the signal combination unit 19.
- the second TV signal blocks are automatically and at random read from the memory. There might be a need to select the second TV signal blocks to be read from the memory under direct control of the user. Therefor, the user activatable input means 23 could further be adapted to select a second TV signal block stored in the storage device for being read from the storage device.
- the storage device 17 is adapted to generate a list comprising information about the stored second TV signal blocks. Said list could be arranged according to determined characteristics of second TV signal blocks. An entry in the list may comprise a specific characteristic and references to at least one second TV signal blocks having said specific characteristic. After selection of an entry in the list having a requested characteristic, a second TV signal block referred to, is read from the memory and supplied to the signal combination unit 19.
- TV signal make use of information retrieved from the service provider, such as an electronic program guide to detect a characteristic.
- the invention may also be incorporated in a video recorder.
- the interruptions in the recorded first TV signal can during reproduction be replaced by up to date information.
