In this example, three users (Mr. A, Mr. B, and Mr. C) are logged in and singing, and each user's table (a table that integrates my song table and history table) is displayed. It is flagged as sung or unsung. A recommendation list is formed by integrating unsung songs in the table of these three users and sorting them in descending order of scoring information. The recommendation list is given the recommended order in descending order of scoring information. Further, in the recommendation list of the present embodiment, a user column indicating a user is provided so that it is possible to distinguish which user's music is.

FIG. 9 is a flow chart showing a recommendation process (“recommended process” in the present invention) of the present embodiment. The recommendation process is a process executed by the karaoke device 2 or the remote controller 1, and is a process executed after the recommendation list is formed in the recommended music extraction process described with reference to FIG. 7. First, the formed recommendation list is acquired (S211), and the music having the highest recommended order in the recommendation list is extracted as a recommended music (“recommended music” in the present invention) (S212). Then, the music playback time of the extracted recommended music (which can be obtained from the meta information of the music information) is compared with the time until the time leaves, and it is determined whether or not the song can be sung by the time leaving (S213). If the song cannot be sung by the exit time (S213: No), the songs in the following recommended order are extracted again as recommended songs (S219), and the recommendation screen is displayed (S214). On the other hand, if it is determined that the song can be sung by the exit time, a recommendation screen including a message regarding the recommended song is displayed (S214). The display target of the recommendation screen may be the monitor 41, the touch panel monitor 33, the touch panel monitor 11, etc. in the karaoke system, but in the present embodiment, the touch panel monitor 11 of the remote controller 1 is the display target.

FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a state of display of the recommendation screen 107 in the present embodiment. On the recommendation screen 107, the time left until the exit time (10 minutes in this example), the song name of the song recommended as the last song to be sung before leaving, and the song were registered in the My Song table or history table. The user name (Mr. A in this example) is displayed. In addition, a button 108a for selecting this song and a button 108b for changing the currently displayed recommended song and displaying the next recommended song are also displayed.

When the button 108a is operated on the recommendation screen 107 and the currently displayed recommended song is selected (S215: Yes), the user displays a song confirmation screen (similar to FIG. 5) for the recommended song. Is urged to make a reservation (S218). When the reservation button is operated on the music confirmation screen of the recommended music, the reservation information including the music identification information of the recommended music is transmitted to the karaoke device 2 as in the normal reservation. The karaoke device 2 that has received the reservation information registers the received reservation information in the reservation table in a different manner from the normal reservation information.

FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a reservation table when the recommended music is selected and after the selection. In the reservation table, songs that have already been played and songs that will be played are registered with the time axis from top to bottom. Normally, when the karaoke device 2 receives the reservation information, the reservation information is added to the end of the reservation table. With the usual registration method on the reservation table, the recommended song cannot be the last song to be sung before the exit time has arrived. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in the normal registration method in the reservation table, if the recommended song cannot be played at the end before the exit time arrives, the recommended song is in time for the exit time and becomes the last song before the exit time. As you can see, the recommended music is interrupted in the reservation table.

FIG. 11A shows a state when the recommended song is selected, and the recommended song is the last song in consideration of the song playback time of the song already registered in the reservation table. Have the reservation information interrupted. In this example, the music is interrupted between the music E and the music F. FIG. 11B shows a state of the reservation table after the recommended music is selected, in which the recommended music is interrupted between the music E and the music F. In the karaoke system, after the recommended music is played, the exit time may be notified, or the exit time may be notified. Further, when the songs F and G are played back, the exit time will be exceeded, so the reservations for the songs F and G may be canceled. In this way, by appropriately registering the selected recommended music in the reservation list, it is possible to make the recommended music the last song to be sung before the exit time.

On the other hand, when the button 108b is operated on the recommendation screen 107 and the display of the next recommended music is instructed (S215: No), the presence or absence of the next candidate recommended music in the recommendation list is determined (S216). If there is no next candidate recommended song in the recommendation list (S216: No), a message is displayed on the touch panel monitor 11 to confirm that the song has not been forgotten. At that time, the exit time may be notified, or the exit time may be notified at the same time. When there is a recommended song that is the next candidate in the recommendation list (S216: Yes), the recommended song in the next recommended order is extracted (S219), and the recommended song can be sung by the exit market price (S213: Yes). The recommendation screen is displayed in (S214).

As described above, in the karaoke system of the present embodiment, among the songs registered in advance by the user, the songs that have not been sung since the visit to the store can be recommended (recommended) to the user in the order of scoring information. By singing the recommended song that the user is good at at the end, it is possible for the user to leave comfortably.

In addition to the above-described embodiment, various modifications can be adopted. In the above-described embodiment, the recommendation list formed in FIG. 8 is used, and the recommended music is notified to the user in order with the order of the scoring information as the recommended order. However, the scoring information is not in such a form. Higher songs may be recommended by changing the user. For example, in the recommendation list of FIG. 8, user A's "music a2" is recommended first, and then user A's "music a3" is recommended, and the same user's music is continuously recommended. .. Depending on the user, there may be situations where you do not want to sing at the end or want to give it to another user. Therefore, the user who did not select the recommended song in the recommendation list may exclude it from the recommendation of the next recommended song.

For example, in the recommendation list of FIG. 8, when the recommended song "music a2" of the user A having the first recommended order is recommended and the recommended song is not selected, the "song a3" of the user A having the second recommended order is recommended. , Skip and different user B's "music b3" is recommended. Then, when the recommended music is not selected, the "music b4" of the user B who is in the fourth recommended order is skipped, and the "music c2" of a different user C is recommended. In this way, by excluding the users who did not select the recommended music, it is possible to improve the efficiency of selecting the recommended music.

Further, in the recommendation screen described with reference to FIG. 10, the recommended song having the highest recommended order is recommended, but a plurality of recommended songs may be recommended and one recommended song may be selected from the recommended songs. .. At that time, the recommendation screen may be displayed not on the touch panel monitor 11 but on a display unit such as the monitor 41 that can be visually recognized by a plurality of users at the same time. Further, in FIG. 10, a recommendation screen for recommending Mr. A's favorite music is displayed on Mr. B's top screen, but it is displayed when switching to Mr. A's top screen, or at the same time as the recommendation screen is displayed. It may be controlled so as to automatically switch to the top screen of Mr. A. This makes it possible to clearly distinguish the users who recommend.

Further, it is possible to allow a mobile terminal such as a smartphone owned by the user to participate in the network of the karaoke system and use the mobile terminal as a remote controller of the karaoke device 2. In this case, the user starts the program installed on his / her mobile terminal, logs in and uses it. In a system in which such a mobile terminal can be used, the recommendation screen may be displayed only on the mobile terminal of the user who is the target of the recommendation of the recommended music. By checking and selecting the recommended song on the recommendation screen, the user can select the song to be sung last without being known by other users, and can surprise other users when singing.

In addition, the recommendation music extraction process was executed 10 minutes before the exit time, and then the recommendation process was executed. However, the recommendation list may be displayed according to the judgment as to whether or not the unsung song of the logged-in user can be sung by the exit time, not 10 minutes before the exit time. Specifically, in the recommendation music extraction process, after the exit time setting (S201) is executed, the processes S203 to S207 are executed regardless of whether or not the exit time is 10 minutes before, and the recommendation list is formed. That is, S202 is not executed. Then, every time the music designation process is executed, the music information stored in the reservation list is excluded from the recommendation list, and the recommendation list is updated.

A plurality of examples are given below for determining whether or not to display the recommendation list after it has been updated. In the first example, when the recommendation list is updated, the recommended music having the highest recommended order is extracted from the recommendation list (S212). It is judged that the song ranked first in the recommended order on the recommendation list can be sung by the exit time (S213: YES), and the remaining time until the exit time is the song playback time + predetermined time of the song ranked first in the recommended order (S213: YES). For example, when it becomes less than the standard 1 music playback time), the recommendation screen is displayed (S214). As a result, the song ranked first in the recommended order of the recommendation list can be reliably recommended as the song to be sung at the end of the exit time.

In the second example, when the recommendation list is updated, it is determined whether or not all the songs included in the recommendation list can be sung by the exit time. All recommended songs can be sung by the exit time, and the remaining time until the exit time is less than or equal to the song playback time of all the recommended songs + the specified time (for example, standard 1 song playback time). If so, the recommendation list is displayed in a list. As a result, it becomes possible to sing as many recommended songs as possible at the end, which the user is good at, and it is possible for the user to leave comfortably.

In the third example, when the recommendation list is updated, one song that is good for each logged-in user is extracted from the songs included in the recommendation list. When it is determined that all the extracted plurality of songs can be sung by the exit time and the songs other than the extracted songs cannot be sung, the recommendation screen is displayed (S214). The display form of the recommendation screen may be one song for each user or a list of extracted songs. In the third example, the registration in the reservation table is reserved so that the music having the highest recommended ranking in the recommendation list comes last, for example, the music having high scoring information is played later. In the example of FIG. 8, the music c2 of the user C, the music b3 of the user B, and the music a2 of the user A are reserved in this order. As a result, everyone can sing their favorite song at the end. In addition, the last song can end the karaoke with the singing with the highest scoring information, and you can leave comfortably.

In addition, although the recommendation list has extracted the songs that each user is good at, it is also possible to recommend songs that are duplicated among a plurality of users. Specifically, in the recommendation list shown in FIG. 8, the music a3 that the user A who is in the second recommended order is good at and the music b4 that the user B who is the fourth in the recommended order is good at are duplicated. In the case of a musical piece, it may be displayed as a recommended musical piece by moving the recommended order forward from the musical piece a2 whose recommended order is the first. In this case, not only one person sings the last song and only one user leaves comfortably, but by singing the song that multiple people are good at at the end, more people can leave comfortably. Will be possible.
