Definitions

  • the invention relates to the distribution of multiple audio and / or video streams in the same house, house or apartment.
  • audio and / or video stream or “AV stream”
  • AV stream we mean content that can be audio only (music, radio %), only video (slideshow %) or both audio and video (television , cinema ).
  • the streams can be received live (conventional TV multicast) or can be present as recordings stored on one of the equipment present in the home or remote.
  • the present invention is mainly exposed in the context of an audio stream broadcast, it will be understood that this application is not limiting and that the invention applies equally well to the broadcasting of video or audio and video streams.
  • the selection by a user of the stream that he wishes to receive in the room where he is located requires the application of selection commands of source. These commands can be applied directly to the server, but this requires a movement of the user between the listening location and the server, or indirectly by a remote control, which may be a specific object or a smartphone with a remote control application.
  • the US 2006/0248557 A1 describes a control interface for grouping multiple media devices into separate sets that can be associated with particular playlists .
  • This interface uses conventional means with movement keys, navigation in menus, etc. which in practice prove to be rather inconvenient to use.
  • the EP 1 998 566 A1 describes another technique, adapted to the transmission of multimedia broadcast multicast data by a wireless telecommunications network, where the incorporation of a marker to a packet header makes it possible to restrict the broadcast to a restricted set of selected recipients .
  • the object of the invention is to propose a simplified interface, using neither display nor movement keys to modify the "assignment" parameters of the groups, that is to say the parameters defining the distribution of peripherals between separate groups to reproduce different respective AV streams.
  • the object of the invention is to provide the user with a simplified ergonomic interface, essentially by means of a single key dedicated to the aforementioned function of managing the assignment parameters.
  • the invention will provide a system for tracking the movement and the wishes of the user in different rooms of the house, with a quick reconfiguration of active devices.
  • the invention makes it possible to control these different actions directly from the active device, without complex interface and without the use of any dedicated or programmed remote control in a smartphone.
  • the invention proposes a system of the general type disclosed by the US 2006/0248557 A1 above, that is to say comprising the elements set forth in the preamble of claim 1.
  • the present invention is remarkable in that it comprises, to achieve the purposes indicated above, the elements set forth in the characterizing part of claim 1.
  • the Figure 1 schematically represents the AV flow distribution system according to the invention, installed in the same house (house or apartment) and organized around a centralized equipment 10 forming domestic server.
  • the AV streams are audio streams (music, radio %), but as we explained in the introduction this example is not limiting and the description below can be transposed to the broadcast of stream both audio and video (television, cinema %), or purely video stream (slideshow ).
  • the server equipment 10 is a box-type equipment (box) connected to an Internet access provider by an ADSL wired link or by an FTTH-type fiber optic link.
  • An example of such a box is the equipment distributed by the operator Free, Paris, France under the name Freebox HD or Freebox V6.
  • It is a multifunctional interface box comprising an ADSL / FTTH modem and implementing telephony, IP network (wired Ethernet or Wi-Fi wireless network), television and mobile (for example at the same time). using a femtocell technology).
  • the IP network makes it possible to connect the housing 10 to a plurality of active peripherals here of the "active speaker" type 14 arranged in different rooms of the dwelling, each of these speakers being connected to the box 10 by a link 16 which can be a wired link, via an Ethernet network installed in the home, or a link via CPL boxes (in-line carrier lines) for exchanging digital data via the pre-existing power lines 230 V-50 Hz by passing the information between the server 10 and the active speakers 14 by modulation of one or more carriers (an example of such a CPL box is the combined power supply / module CPL module) called Freeplug manufactured by the Free Internet Service Provider , Paris, France, which is intended to supply the box- type equipment of this access provider).
  • Another possibility of data exchange between the server 10 and the active speakers is a wireless transmission type Wi-Fi, if the house does not have too many obstacles to radio transmission.
  • the active device 14 may be in a form other than an active speaker, for example a box-type equipment, intended to be connected to a TV but knowing as well as restoring only audio and on which would be added the necessary control keys, or equipment equipped with a processor and a "line" audio output but without speaker, intended to be connected to a Hi-Fi system.
  • the server 10 can also be connected to a television 18 via a multimedia box 20, for example the equipment distributed by the operator Free under the name Freebox HD or Freebox Player : such a box integrates video decoder, hard disk, digital video recorder, and software for graphical display on the television and reception and processing of commands sent by the user, in particular for the configuration of the multimedia box 20 and the server 10.
  • a multimedia box 20 for example the equipment distributed by the operator Free under the name Freebox HD or Freebox Player : such a box integrates video decoder, hard disk, digital video recorder, and software for graphical display on the television and reception and processing of commands sent by the user, in particular for the configuration of the multimedia box 20 and the server 10.
  • the Figure 2 illustrates more precisely, in the form of functional blocks, the various elements implemented by the server equipment 10.
  • This may in particular comprise an interface 22 with the remote access provider to which it is connected by the ADSL / FTTH link 12, enabling it in particular to receive audio streams from outside, intended to be broadcast to the various occupants of the dwelling.
  • it may be an interfacing with a server local source of audio stream, for example via a web browser configured appropriately.
  • the generally limited capabilities of the technologies used do not allow a simultaneous broadcast multicast of all audio streams to the different active speakers.
  • the links between the server 10 and the active speakers 14 are in fact point-to-point links, with a single audio stream broadcast to each device at a given time, but functionally each speaker can have access to any of the streams potentially accessible audio, by an appropriate stream selection command addressed to the server.
  • the audio streams collected, downloaded and / or stored in memory are processed by a microcontroller 26 which delivers in parallel a certain number of audio streams 28 simultaneously generated and multiplexed in 30 for broadcasting to the different active speakers on the broadcast links 16 by the via a Wi-Fi 32 or Ethernet 34 interface.
  • the Figure 3 illustrates in the form of a functional block diagram the internal structure of an active loudspeaker 14.
  • This is an "amplified loudspeaker" type apparatus devoid of an own audio source (at least for the implementation of the invention ), which receives the audio streams broadcast by the server 10 via the link 16.
  • the active speaker 14 comprises Wi-Fi reception circuits 36 or Ethernet 38 for collecting the audio streams for application to a microcontroller 40.
  • This microcontroller selects one of the audio streams received from those that are broadcast by the server, and applies this flux to an amplifier 42 for driving a loudspeaker 44.
  • the active speaker is further provided with a control interface comprising, as illustrated in more detail Figure 4 , a set 46 of control keys, in themselves conventional (volume +/-, speaker cut, playback / pause, accelerated forward / backward or previous / next track).
  • each active speaker is further provided with a specific control interface 48 comprising a change of assignment key 52, the role and operation of which will be explained later, in particular with reference to FIGS. Figures 6 and 7 , this key 52 being coupled with a colored indicator 54 may take a plurality of different colors each corresponding to one of the audio stream broadcast by the central server.
  • control interface of the active speaker is in a very simplified form, and thus allows an extremely convenient and intuitive use by any user.
  • This interface is in particular devoid of graphical interface with display, drop-down menu, etc.
  • the Figures 5a to 5d illustrate an example of evolution of the audio streaming patterns over time in a dwelling.
  • the dwelling is an apartment including a living room (SEJ), a kitchen (CUI), a terrace (TER), three bedrooms (CH1, CH2, CH3) and a bathroom (SDB).
  • SEJ living room
  • CLI kitchen
  • TER terrace
  • CH1, CH2, CH3 three bedrooms
  • SDB bathroom
  • each of these rooms is installed an active speaker 14 coupled to a single server equipment disposed at any point of the dwelling and simultaneously broadcasting a plurality of audio streams that can be received by each of the active speakers 14, all the audio streams being from the same equipment, namely the central server, unique for housing.
  • the server was previously set to select the audio streams to be broadcast, by any conventional appropriate means: by the TV remote control 18 via the multimedia box 20, by a computer coupled to the server 10, by a smartphone on which was loaded a remote control application, etc.
  • this broadcast table is to answer the question "Which speakers broadcast which stream?" , knowing that it is possible to define several groups each corresponding to a broadcast of a different audio stream, and that a speaker belongs to at most only one group (a speaker only broadcasts a single stream, or no flow).
  • This broadcasting table is an evolutive table, modifiable over time according to the different selections made by the users at each active speaker.
  • a sound environment can also exist virtually, that is to say be broadcast by the server but not reproduced by any active speaker, as in the case of the Figure 5a where the parental sound is not present on any of the active speakers.
  • Sound environment changes are controlled by the illustrated interface Figure 4 , thanks in particular to the change of assignment key 52 which makes it possible to join an existing group or to create a new one, the colored indicator light 54 providing a return as to the current choice of the group.
  • pressing the "play" button 56 triggers the listening of a new sound environment, which is still not reproduced by any of the active speakers of the house.
  • pressing the key 52 makes it possible to successively explore all the groups present, that is to say those that are broadcast on at least one active speaker of the dwelling (block 60), with control of the indicator colored 54 which has a multicolored LED, each color corresponding to a different group.
  • the Figure 7 illustrates the main steps to determine a group to create or join.
  • the speaker After pressing the key 52 (block 70), it is determined whether the speaker is the only one of the current group (block 72). If this is the case, the group is deleted (block 74), possibly with a delay. In any case, the next group is selected (block 76): if this group has already been presented to the user (block 78) a new group is created (block 80). Then the active speaker joins either this new group created or the current group selected (block 82), and waits for a command from the user (block 84), including a press of the play button 56.
  • persistent groups that is to say groups that will survive the last constituent element and therefore can not be deleted.
  • These groups can, for example, correspond to a favorite radio station, a personal playlist , etc., so that the corresponding sound environment can be reached by pressing the key 52 without any new setting of the server.
  • the formation of persistent groups makes it possible to provide users with a quick way of recovering their favorite sound environment, and a particular color can be assigned to these groups for the colored indicator 54, which will be used systematically to designate them, thus making it possible to do without GUI for current use.
