The mobile phone 2 can access the moving image transmission server 1 via the Internet 3.

  Hereinafter, in the above-described moving image transmission system, a process in which a user accesses the moving image transmission server 1 and transmits a moving image will be described.

  First, as described above, the video transmission system according to the present embodiment is a service for users who have registered in advance, and a user who has not yet registered a membership transmits video using the mobile phone 2. The server 1 is accessed and an operation for membership registration is performed. For example, a user ID and a password are input. The video transmission server 1 that has received the user's operation registers member data including a user ID that can identify the user and a password in the above-described member data table.

  The user who has registered as a member thereafter performs an operation for authentication to confirm whether or not the user has registered as a member when accessing the video transmission server 1 using the mobile phone 2. For example, a user ID and a password are input. The video transmission server 1 that has received the user's operation checks whether or not the member data consisting of the received user ID and password is registered in the member data table. Do not do.

  On the other hand, the video transmission server 1 that has confirmed that the received member data including the user ID and password is registered in the member data table proceeds to the member processing (FIG. 3).

  FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing member processing in the moving picture transmission system.

  The moving image transmission server 1 that has proceeded to the member process performs a my page generation process S101 for generating a my page shown in FIG. My page consists of three options. Transmission range registration, video transmission, and video posting. The generated my page is transmitted to the mobile phone 2, and the mobile phone 2 displays the my page shown in FIG. 4A on the display unit 205.

  The moving image transmission server 1 that has generated the My Page shifts to a standby state in which it waits until the user selects any one of transmission range registration, moving image transmission, and moving image posting (S102, S109, S114).

  When receiving a notification that transmission range registration has been selected by operating the user's decision button 201 in My Page (S102, S109, S114), the video transmission server 1 determines YES in S102 and proceeds to the video identification process S103. To do.

  In the moving image specifying process S103, the moving image transmission server 1 specifies all the moving image data stored in the moving image data table (not shown). Then, a page generation process S104 for generating a registration target selection page including the moving image data (moving image ID and title) is performed.

  On the registration object selection page, as shown in FIG. 4B, all moving image data are displayed in a selectable manner. Note that only one item can be selected.

  The generated registration target selection page is transmitted to the mobile phone 2, and the mobile phone 2 displays the registration target selection page shown in FIG. 4B on the display unit 205.

  The video transmission server 1 that generated the registration target selection page proceeds to the video reception process S105 and waits until the user selects any of the video data.

  When the user's determination button 201 is operated to accept that any of the moving image data is selected, the moving image transmission server 1 performs a moving image transmission process S106 for transmitting the moving image data in response to this selection.

  When the moving image data is selected, the moving image transmission server 1 transmits all of the moving image data in the moving image transmission process S106.

  The moving image transmission server 1 that has transmitted the moving image data proceeds to the transmission range registration acceptance process S107, and shifts to a standby state in which the user's operation is waited for.

  The mobile phone 2 that has received the moving image data displays the moving image page shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4 (c), the video data is displayed on the video page, and as shown in the lower part of FIG. 4 (c), the start point is set by the left button 202, the end point is set by the right button 203, Each end can be input by a decision button 201.

  The user operates the left button 202 (start point), the right button 203 (end point), or the enter button 201 (end) at a desired point in time while actually viewing the moving image data, so that the operation point and target The information that can identify the button and the moving image ID that can identify the moving image data to be operated are transmitted from the mobile phone 2 to the moving image transmission server 1.

  In the transmission range registration acceptance process S107, the video transmission server 1 that has received the operation time point, information that can specify the operation target button, and the video ID that can specify the video data that is the operation target is the operation target Process according to the button.

  First, when the left button 202 (start point) is an operation target button, the operation point is temporarily stored as the start point. When the right button 203 (end point) is a button to be operated, the operation time point is temporarily stored as the end point.

  The operation of these left button 202 (start point) or right button 203 (end point) is accepted as many times as the operation of the enter button 201 (end) is accepted or until the end of the video data is transmitted and the transmission ends. In any case, any number of received time points are temporarily stored as start points and end points.

  In the transmission range registration acceptance process S107, when the operation of the decision button 201 (end) is accepted or the transmission to the end of the moving image data is completed and the transmission ends, the process proceeds to the transmission range identification process S108.

  In the transmission range specification processing S108, the moving image transmission server 1 specifies the transmission range based on the temporarily stored start point and end point, and stores this transmission range in the transmission range data table.

  As the start point and end point indicating the transmission range, in principle, the last received start point among the temporarily stored start points and the last received end point among the temporarily stored end points are specified. When the last received end point indicates a time point before the start point, the end point received last is specified among the end points indicating the time point after the start point.

  Here, the specifying method of the start point and the end point indicating the transmission range in the transmission range specifying process S108 will be described in detail.

  First, when one start point and one end point are received, a transmission range including the received start point and end point is specified as shown in FIG.

  When a plurality of start points and end points are received, a transmission range including the last specified start point and end point is specified as shown in FIG.

  When only the start point is received, a transmission range including the received start point and the end point of the moving image data is specified as shown in FIG. That is, the end point that is the end of the moving image data is specified as the end point.

  When only the end point is received, as shown in FIG. 6D, a transmission range including the start point of the moving image data and the received end point is specified. That is, the start point that is the head of the moving image data is specified as the start point.

  Further, after receiving the end point (for example, “end point 1”), when receiving the start point (for example, “start point 2”) indicating the time point after the end point, as shown in FIG. The “start point 1” and “end point 1” received before the received “start point 2” are specified as the first transmission range, and the “start point 2” and “end point 2” after the received “start point 2” are further specified. "Is specified as the second transmission range.

  Further, in FIG. 6E, after “end point 2” is received, “start point 3” indicating a time point after “end point 2” is received, and after the received “start point 3”. The start point and the end point are specified as the third and subsequent transmission ranges.

  The moving image transmission server 1 that has specified the transmission range and stores it in the transmission range data table (FIG. 2) proceeds to my page generation processing S101, and transmits the my page shown in FIG.

  When the video transmission server 1 accepts that the video transmission is selected by the user's operation of the determination button 201 in the My Page (S102, S109, S114), the video transmission server 1 determines YES in S109 and proceeds to the video specifying process S110. .

  In the moving image specifying process S110, the moving image transmission server 1 specifies all the transmission range data stored in the transmission range data table (FIG. 2) in association with the user ID that can identify the user confirmed by the authentication. . Then, page generation processing S112 for generating a transmission range page for reproduction including the transmission range data and the title of the moving image data included in the transmission range data is performed.

  In the reproduction transmission range page, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), all moving image data registered by the user for transmission range data and all transmissions registered by the user for each moving image data are displayed. The range data is displayed so that each can be selected and the order can be specified. Note that the selectable items are moving image data and transmission range data, and a plurality of items can be selected at the same time, and each can be specified in turn.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), a selection box in which numbers indicating the order (0, 1, 2,...) Can be specified is displayed on the reproduction transmission range page. Thus, the moving image data and the transmission range data can be selected and the order can be specified. When 0 is designated as the number indicating the order, it indicates that the number has not been selected. That is, on the playback transmission range page, it is possible to select and input numbers for moving image data and transmission range data.

  In addition, on the playback transmission range page, as shown in FIG. 4D, a playback button is also displayed at the bottom of the page.

  The generated playback transmission range page is transmitted to the mobile phone 2, and the mobile phone 2 displays the playback transmission range page shown in FIG. 4D on the display unit 205.

  The moving image transmission server 1 that has generated the reproduction transmission range page proceeds to a transmission instruction reception process S112, and the user performs selection input of numbers for the moving image data or transmission range data and operates the reproduction button. stand by.

  When the user inputs a number to the moving image data or the transmission range data and accepts that the play button has been operated, the moving image transmission server 1 transmits the moving image data in response to this selection. S113 is performed.

  When the number selection input is not performed for the moving image data or the transmission range data, the moving image transmission server 1 proceeds to the My Page generation processing S101 without performing any processing in the moving image transmission processing S113, and again in FIG. The my page shown in a) is transmitted to the mobile phone 2.

  In addition, when a number is selected and input for the moving image data or the transmission range data, the moving image transmission server 1 transmits the moving image data specified by the selected moving image data or the transmission range data in the moving image transmission process S113. The range is continuously transmitted to the mobile phone 2 in the designated order. That is, continuous transmission.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), transmission range data for moving image 1 for 10 to 15 seconds (hatched portion in FIG. 5 (a)) is 1, transmission range data for moving image 2 for 2 to 29 seconds (FIG. 5 ( When the playback button is operated with b) the hatched portion being 2, these are continuously transmitted to the mobile phone 2 as shown in FIG.

  At this time, the moving image data shown in FIG. 5C is displayed on the display unit 205 of the mobile phone 2 as shown in FIG.

  In the moving image transmission process S113, the moving image transmission server 1 that has continuously transmitted moving image data newly stores one transmission range data including the transmission ranges of the plurality of transmitted moving image data in the transmission range data table.

  For example, when continuous transmission is performed based on the operation shown in FIG. 4D, specifically, as shown in FIG. 5D, as transmission range data whose transmission range ID is “000000001”. As shown, after 10 to 25 seconds of moving image data with a moving image ID “0001.avi”, 2 to 29 seconds of moving image data with a moving image ID “0002.avi” are continuously transmitted. The transmission range is stored in the transmission range data table (FIG. 2).

  The moving image transmission server 1 that has transmitted the moving image data proceeds to my page generation processing S101, and transmits the my page shown in FIG.

  Thereafter, when it is accepted that the moving image transmission is selected by the user's operation of the determination button 201, the moving image transmission server 1 determines YES in S109 and proceeds to the moving image specifying process S110.

  In the moving image specifying process S110, the moving image transmission server 1 specifies all the transmission range data stored in the transmission range data table (FIG. 2) in association with the user ID that can identify the user confirmed by the authentication. . At this time, as described above, the transmission range corresponding to the continuously transmitted moving image is additionally stored in the transmission range data table (FIG. 2). Therefore, as illustrated in FIG. “Continuous transmission 1” (name can be determined in any way) is displayed as selectable transmission range.

  Thereby, it becomes easy for the user to continuously transmit the moving image once transmitted to the moving image transmission server 1 again.

  When accepting that the moving image posting has been selected by operating the user's decision button 201 in My Page (S102, S109, S114), the moving image transmission server 1 determines YES in S114 and proceeds to page generation processing S115. .

  In the page generation process S115, the moving image transmission server 1 generates a posting acceptance page for receiving moving image data by mail transmission.

  As shown in FIG. 4G, information for starting the mail program of the mobile phone 2 is displayed on the posting acceptance page so as to be selectable. The information for starting includes an e-mail address for receiving e-mail attached with moving image data in the moving image transmission server 1.

  The generated posting acceptance page is transmitted to the mobile phone 2, and the mobile phone 2 displays the posting acceptance page shown in FIG.

  The video transmission server 1 that generated the posting acceptance page proceeds to the video posting acceptance processing S116 and waits until the user transmits the video data by e-mail.

  Here, a method for posting moving image data by e-mail will be described.

  In the first embodiment, the mobile phone 2 includes a camera 204, and the user can create moving image data by shooting with the camera 204 of the mobile phone 2. Further, the mobile phone 2 has a function of sending an e-mail attached with moving image data, and the user can send the created moving image data attached to the e-mail.

  On the other hand, the moving image transmission server 1 is provided with an e-mail address for receiving e-mail with moving image data attached.

  In this situation, the user posts the moving image data by attaching the moving image data to the e-mail address of the moving image transmission server 1 and sending an e-mail including a user ID that can identify the user. It can be done.

  When the posting acceptance page shown in FIG. 4G is displayed on the display unit 205 of the mobile phone 2, information for the user to start the mail program of the mobile phone 2 by operating the determination button 201 is displayed. When selected, the mail program of the mobile phone 2 is activated.
