  • the present invention relates to possibilities of interactive television and relates to an additional device for connection to a television set having the features of the preamble of claim 1 and to a method for transmitting additional information to the television signal.
  • the transmission of television signals can be radio or cable-based.
  • Television signals are used to transmit previously generated images, programs and image-based information, accompanied by audio signals, to a wide variety of users, the so-called television consumers.
  • the images are produced centrally and transmitted to users in a uniform form and distributed. In this form of signal generation, transmission and use, individual selection from different contents can be made solely by selecting a particular one of a plurality of different programs available.
  • WO 02/087239 A1 describes a possibility of the interactive use of a television signal in which contents from the Internet are displayed on the screen.
  • the device monitors and stores the broadcasts consumed by the user and then calculates the possible further television times and pre-loads the information available for this purpose into its memory beforehand.
  • DE 100 58 347 A1 describes a device set for personal computers for its connection to a television set. With the device, the personal computer can be controlled directly via the TV.
  • US 2005/0125455 A1 describes an interactive television method that allows multiple users to play with each other.
  • the main focus of this method is the provision of games via the television.
  • US 2003/0108022 A1 describes a method in which contents are marked on the television and this marking is sent to a server. At a later time, this information can then be retrieved from any terminal.
  • WO 97/41 690 A1 further describes a method in which objects or image areas on the television are connected to a fixed URL. A semantic search and assignment of links is not possible.
  • WO 01/01686 A1 discloses a method in which fixedly defined templates are available on a set-top box. These templates are used to display Web blocks are displayed. The signals for displaying the templates are transmitted with the television signal to the set-top box.
  • WO 00/16 556 A1 finally describes a connection device for so-called home entertainment devices.
  • the device can control multiple media devices simultaneously.
  • the functions of the devices are summarized in this device.
  • the object of the invention is to develop an accessory for a television that allows the end user to retrieve parallel offers from the Internet and at the same time allows him various further actions.
  • This object of the invention is achieved with the subject matter of the independent claim.
  • the great advantage of the invention is to create a direct linkage of television broadcasts and other media with content that is available on the Internet and appropriate for the television broadcasts and appropriately prepared for the user.
  • the additional device according to the invention which makes this functionality possible, is a so-called set top box with an extended functional scope according to this patent.
  • This set-top box is referred to below as the tvBuddy set-top box or just tvBuddy.

  • the display is usually on a TV.
  • the set-top box can also provide its own option for displaying the medium.
  • the functions and functionalities of the tvBuddy set top box can also be integrated directly into the TV, so that no additional device is necessary. However, the functionalities are identical in this alternative embodiment.
  • tvBuddy can also automatically overlay the current television picture and display information.
  • the tvBuddy collects search data from the following sources:
  • EPG electronic program guide
  • preconfigured data on the tvBuddy client is the linking of the stored time slots (television program channel number) and a corresponding program of the name, as well as further information and tags for this entry; more preconfigured data on the tvBuddy
  • Settop Box can also be regional information or information about the person or persons who use tvBuddy; this listing is not limiting and is for illustration;
  • search data This totality of this collected information, optionally also any combination of these data and / or parts of these data are referred to in the present context as search data.
  • This search data for a currently running program or the current media playback will now be taken over by tvBuddy. This means that the search data will be sent to the tvBuddy server.
  • meta-terms can be defined in tvBuddy. These manually or automatically assigned meta-terms are also included in the search.
  • meta-expressions can have a time limit (from-to), regional assignments and other freely definable parameterizations and are assigned to individual search data, terms or partial terms in search data or even combinations thereof.

  • semantics can be used.
  • the term “James Bond 007” could be assigned the meta-term "BMW ® Z3" from the search data.
  • a travel magazine with articles about Spain can be assigned various travel offers, hotels, flights etc. to Spain, which are offered on the Internet.
  • Search results for Spain such as Spanish news or current Spanish sports scores are hidden because they are of no importance to the user at this point.
  • the user is looking for travel and vacation opportunities in Spain.
  • a Spanish course at the regional community college can round off the offer.
  • the search results take into account the preferences of the user, as well as the preferences of other users with a comparable search profile, in order to significantly improve the result and tailor it to the customer.
  • personalized information about the respective user can also be stored on the tvBuddy server. This personalized information can be incorporated into the metadata.
  • Metadata are generally referred to as metadata in the present context.
  • EPLs Electronic Program Links
  • the server searches in its database or on the Internet for stored information on the previously determined or obtained metadata. This information can be linked either automatically or manually to the metadata. Again methods and methods of semantics can be used for the search.
  • the result is the Electronic Program Links (EPLs).
  • EPLs Electronic Program Links
  • These EPLs are now being processed by the server. The processing can also be carried out in such a way that information from the data to which the link refers is read out directly and prepared as preview information. Subsequently, the processed EPLs will be superior to the client.
  • the client presents the results (processed EPLs) in a form optimized for the terminal. The user can now select individual results from these EPLs and retrieve them.

  • the television can thus continue to be used.
  • the TV offers personalized and personalized services from the Internet.
  • These new home entertainment devices can replace or replace hard disk receivers, DVD burners and hi-fi systems, since they combine all functions or extend these devices with the functions of the tvBuddy.
  • the TV develops from passive medium to the communication center for the whole family.
  • the new device enriches consumed media with interactive functions from the Internet. With normal television, many new functions are accessible, such as the retrieval of background information and other trailers for current programs. This applies in the borrowed dimension for e.g. Watching a DVD or even listening to a piece of music or audio contribution or the like via the tvBuddy set top box.
