Hereinafter, a method of attaching the mobile terminal device K1 and the commander 2 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram showing a method of attaching the mobile terminal device K1 and the commander 2 according to the present embodiment. In the example illustrated in FIG. 2, the center server 3 stores the commander ID of the commander 2 and the remote control ID of the remote control 1 attached to the commander 2 in association with each other. Thereby, the center server 3 can recognize that the remote controller to which the commander 2 is attached is the remote controller 1.

  First, the remote controller 1 executes a login process (FIG. 2: (1)). In the process of FIG. 2 (1), the user Y 1 of the remote controller 1 inputs user identification information using the remote controller 1. As a result of the input, the remote controller 1 executes a login process. Then, the remote controller 1 transmits the user identification information input during the login process and the remote controller ID of the remote controller 1 that transmitted the user identification information to the center server 3 (FIG. 2: (2)).

  When the center server 3 receives the user identification information from the remote controller 1, the center server 3 determines the commander 2 connected to the remote controller 1 that has transmitted the user identification information. Specifically, the commander 2 that can communicate with the remote controller 1 that has transmitted the user identification information is determined. In the present embodiment, the center server 3 stores the remote controller ID of the remote controller 1 used in the karaoke system and the commander ID of the commander 2 that can communicate with the remote controller 1 in association with each other. For this reason, the commander ID associated with the remote control ID of the remote control 1 that has transmitted the user identification information is determined. Then, the center server 3 stores the received user identification information in association with the commander ID ((3) in FIG. 2).

  Next, the user Y1 inputs user identification information using the mobile terminal device K1 in order to transmit a command to the commander 2 using the mobile terminal device K1. Then, the input user identification information is transmitted from the portable terminal device K1 to the center server 3 (FIG. 2: (4)). And the center server 3 will determine commander ID matched with the received user identification information, if user identification information is received from the portable terminal device K1. The commander 2 indicated by the commander ID determined in this way is determined as a commander that can communicate with the mobile terminal device K1. When the center server 3 receives, for example, song identification information for reserving a song as a command from the mobile terminal device K1 to the commander 2, the command is sent to the commander 2 having the commander ID determined in this way. Transfer the received music identification information. Therefore, various commands typified by music reservation can be transmitted to the commander 2 by the mobile terminal device K1. As a result, the mobile terminal device K1 can execute the same processing as the remote controller 1 for the commander 2.

[3. Hidden reservation setting]

The example in FIG. 3B is an example in which the hidden reservation setting is enabled (ON in FIG. 3B). When the hidden reservation setting is enabled (ON in FIG. 3B), the reserved music is hidden and displayed. Then, after the hidden reservation setting is set, the music reservation process is executed as shown in FIG. The music reservation process is a process in which reservation contents set by the remote controller 1 are transmitted to the commander 2 to reserve a song singing. In FIG. 3B, when the hidden reservation setting is enabled, information indicating that the hidden reservation setting is enabled is notified from the remote controller 1 to the commander 2. When the music reservation process is completed, a message indicating that the reservation process shown in FIG. 3C is completed is displayed on the display 14 of the remote controller 1.

  Next, a reservation list display method when a hidden reservation is set will be described with reference to FIGS. When the commander 2 accepts the reservation of the music executed by the remote controller 1, it manages the reservation status as a reservation list. FIG. 4A is an explanatory diagram illustrating a display mode in which a reservation list is displayed on a display externally connected to the commander 2 in the present embodiment. FIG. 4B is an explanatory diagram showing a display mode in which a reservation list is displayed on the display provided in the commander 2 in the present embodiment.

  As shown in FIG. 4A, when the reservation list is displayed on the display externally connected to the commander 2, the reserved music name and the user image are displayed in association with each other. In the example of FIG. 4A, as the reservation for the first song, the user image A4 and the song name “Chirinuru” are displayed in association with each other. In addition, as a reservation for the second song, an image “guest” indicating a guest user who has not logged in to the remote controller 1 and a song name “Irohanihoheto” are displayed in association with each other. As the reservation for the third song, the user image A1 and “□□□□□” are displayed in association with each other. “□□□□□” indicates that the reserved music name is displayed as “□□□□□” on the display. In this way, the music title may be hidden using characters, figures, or images different from the music title. In addition, if it is information which cannot identify a music name, it will not specifically limit. The music title may be masked and displayed on the display. Further, the music title may not be displayed on the display, and only the user image A1 may be displayed on the display. Moreover, you may set so that a part of music name may be hidden. Moreover, the display of the music name set as non-display may be displayed on the display using a color that is less visible to the user than the normal display where the hidden reservation is not set. For example, by adjusting at least one of brightness, saturation, or hue of the display, the display may be displayed using a color that is difficult for the user to see. Thus, since the music title is not displayed on the display, the next reservation is not known among the users singing using the commander 2, and karaoke can be enjoyed with amusement. Similarly in FIG. 4B, the same display information shown in FIG. 4A is displayed on the display provided in the commander 2.

  FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram showing a state in which a reservation list is displayed on the display 14 of the remote controller 1 of the present embodiment. FIG. 5A is an explanatory diagram showing a display mode in which a reservation list is displayed on the remote controller 1 when the user of the user image A4 is an active user. FIG. 5B is an explanatory diagram showing a display mode in which a reservation list is displayed on the remote controller 1 when the user of the user image A1 is an active user.

  As shown in FIG. 4, when the reservation for the third song is set to be effective and the active user is a user of the user image A4, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 5A, the third song is displayed as “□□□□□” as a hidden reservation. On the other hand, in FIG.5 (b), an active user is a user of user image A1. For this reason, the user who has set the hidden reservation of the third song to be valid and requested the reservation process matches the active user of the remote controller 1. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5B, the third music piece is not hidden such as “□□□□□”, but the actual song name “Aiueo” is displayed. As described above, for the reserved music in which the active user and the user for whom the hidden reservation is set to be valid, the remote controller 1 uses the song name of the matching reserved music even when the hidden reservation is set to be effective. Is displayed. Therefore, even when the hidden reservation is set to be valid when the music is reserved, it is possible to cancel the non-display of the music only to the user who can browse the information on the display screen of the remote controller 1 at present. As a result, it is possible to prevent the reserved song from being known to other users and to confirm the contents of the hidden reservation.
