Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is applied to a request type image providing system such as an image karaoke system or a public street terminal system which is used by a user at any time.
The present invention relates to an advertisement video reproduction device that reproduces a predetermined advertisement video while the main video is not displayed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is known a system for providing a video corresponding to a request from a user, such as a video karaoke system or a public street terminal system. Since these systems are intended to respond to the user's request, if the requests are continuous, the video corresponding to the request (hereinafter referred to as the main video) is displayed continuously, but the request must be made. For example, the main video is not displayed.

Therefore, in a video karaoke system, for example, the main video (background video corresponding to the requested song)
In the period when is not displayed, there is a method in which a video for connection is displayed and the main video is immediately switched to when there is a request. This connecting image is displayed only to prevent a blue back screen from being displayed if nothing is displayed.

[0004]

It is conceivable to display an advertisement video of a predetermined length by utilizing the period in which the main video is not displayed. For example, it is an advertisement image having a length of about 15 seconds or 30 seconds, similar to a television advertisement.

However, this advertisement image is displayed only during the period when the main image is not displayed,
If there is a request for the main video (when a song is requested in the karaoke system), it is necessary to immediately switch to that video playback, so the playback of the advertising video will be interrupted even during the process. Will have to.

[0006] The above-mentioned "connecting" video has no special relationship with the requested song, so there is no problem where it is interrupted, but in the case of advertising video, it is a series of story videos. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a sufficient advertising effect as an advertisement only by displaying the content to the end and showing it to the viewer (karaoke user, etc.).
Therefore, interruption in the middle reduces the meaning as an advertisement. For example, in the case of a story development in which an advertising provider or an object to be advertised (for example, a product name) is displayed at the end, if the advertising provider or the object is interrupted before being displayed , Advertising value is almost gone.

[0007] However, even so, the time for reproducing the image is not secured in advance as in a normal television advertisement, and such an advertisement image uses a period during which the main image is not displayed. Therefore, prioritizing the display of the advertisement video from the beginning is a nuisance. In other words, taking the case of a karaoke system as an example, a request was made, but since the playback of the advertisement video has started, the original purpose of playing the karaoke song / playing the background video will continue until the playback of the advertisement video ends. Not being done is not desirable.

The present invention has been made in order to solve such a problem, and when an advertisement image is displayed while the main image is not displayed, the interrupted advertisement image is It is an object of the present invention to provide an advertisement video reproducing device which is capable of continuously displaying from the beginning to the end at the time of reproduction from the next time onward so that the advertising effect as an advertisement can be sufficiently exerted.

[0009]

In order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 is a means for displaying a predetermined main image in response to a request, as illustrated in the basic configuration diagram of FIG. In the request-type video providing system for displaying in the above, an advertisement video reproduction device for reproducing a predetermined advertisement video and displaying it on the display means while the main video corresponding to the request is not displayed, and having a predetermined length. An advertisement image storage means for storing a plurality of advertisement images, and a reproduction instruction for outputting an advertisement image reproduction command when the main image is not scheduled to be displayed and an advertisement image stop command when a request is input. When the stop instruction means and the advertisement image reproduction instruction are input by the reproduction / stop instruction means, the advertisement images stored in the advertisement image storage means are sequentially reproduced in a predetermined order. On the other hand, when the advertisement video stop command is input, the video reproduction means for immediately stopping the reproduction of the advertisement video at that time, and the reproduction by the video stop processing of the video reproduction means based on the advertisement video stop command. When there is an interrupted advertisement video, an interruption advertisement storage means for temporarily storing the attribute information thereof and an attribute information of the advertisement video whose reproduction is interrupted are stored in the interruption advertisement storage means. And an image reproduction control unit for restarting the reproduction of the interrupted advertisement image from the beginning when the next advertisement image is reproduced by the image reproduction unit.

On the other hand, in the invention according to claim 2, the request type image providing system is configured as a background image reproducing system for karaoke which displays a predetermined background image corresponding to the requested karaoke piece on the display means. The advertisement video reproducing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein a predetermined advertisement video is reproduced and displayed on the display means while the background video corresponding to the requested song is not displayed. Is configured to output an advertisement video reproduction command when there is no request song reservation and output an advertisement video stop command when a song request is input. Is.

Further, in the invention described in claim 3, the video reproduction control means, when there is the same advertisement video which is continuously reproduced a predetermined number of times without being reproduced to the end, the video reproduction means. 2. The advertisement video reproducing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein, when the next advertisement video is reproduced, only the interrupted advertisement video has priority over the main video and is reproduced from the beginning to the end. is there.

[0012]

According to the advertising image reproducing apparatus of the first aspect of the present invention, which is configured as described above, a predetermined main image in response to a request is displayed on the display means. And the advertisement image storage means stores a plurality of advertisement images of a predetermined length,
The reproduction / stop command means outputs an advertisement video reproduction command when the main video is not scheduled to be displayed, and outputs an advertisement video stop command when a request is input. When the advertisement video reproduction command is input, the video reproduction means sequentially reproduces the advertisement video stored in the advertisement video storage means in a predetermined order, while when the advertisement video stop command is input. , At that point, the playback of the advertisement video is immediately stopped.
Therefore, a predetermined advertisement image can be reproduced and displayed on the display means while the main image is not displayed.

Here, if there is an advertisement image whose reproduction is interrupted by the image stopping process of the image reproducing means based on the advertisement image stop command, the interrupted advertisement storage means temporarily stores the attribute information. When the attribute information of the advertisement image whose reproduction is interrupted is stored in the video reproduction control means interruption advertisement storage means, when the next advertisement video is reproduced by the video reproduction means, the interruption advertisement video is reproduced from the beginning again. To start.

As described above, the advertisement image is displayed while the main image is being displayed. However, when the request for the main image is input, the reproduction of the advertisement image is immediately stopped. Will not interfere with the provision of. Then, when the request is input, the reproduction is immediately stopped, and thus the reproduction of the advertisement image may be stopped halfway. For the advertisement video that is interrupted in this way, when the next advertisement video is played back, the playback is restarted from the beginning of the interrupted advertisement video, so the advertisement video is continuously displayed from the beginning to the end. Therefore, it is possible to obtain a sufficient advertising effect as an advertisement.

That is, when the reproduction of the advertisement image is interrupted, the advertisement effect as an advertisement becomes weak even if the reproduction is resumed from the interruption point at the time of the next reproduction. Therefore, from the beginning to the end. Need to play. Further, it is also possible to ignore the interrupted advertisement video when reproducing a plurality of advertisement videos in order, and to reproduce from the next advertisement video after the interruption at the next reproduction. However, it is necessary to wait for one cycle to be completed before the interrupted advertisement image is reproduced again, and depending on the timing, the advertisement image may be interrupted at the next reproduction.

Therefore, as in the present invention, when the next advertisement image is reproduced, the interrupted advertisement image is prioritized to start the reproduction from the beginning, so that it is most likely that the reproduction is continuously performed from the beginning to the end. It will be higher. The request-type video providing system may be configured as a karaoke background video reproducing system for displaying a predetermined background video corresponding to the requested karaoke piece on the display means, for example. In this case, the predetermined advertisement image is reproduced and displayed on the display means while the background image corresponding to the requested music piece is not displayed, and the reproduction / stop instruction means does not reserve the requested music piece. In this case, the advertisement video reproduction command is output, and when the song request is input, the advertisement video stop command is output.

In the case of a karaoke system capable of reserving a request for a plurality of songs, in consideration of a practical use situation, a request reservation for a plurality of songs may be made at one time, or conversely there may be a state where no request is made for a while. . When there is a reservation, the background image for the karaoke song is continuously reproduced, so the advertisement image is not reproduced. Then, when the request is exhausted, the reproduction of the advertisement video is started. Of course, if there is a request in the middle of this reproduction, the background video is preferentially reproduced by interrupting immediately.

As described above, the advertisement video uses the period during which the main video is not displayed, and it is basically preferable that the main video has priority. However,
In some cases, the same advertisement image may be interrupted many times in a row. For example, in the case of the above-mentioned karaoke system, when the request is repeated at an interval shorter than the length of one advertisement video, only the first part of the advertisement video is reproduced many times and not even the end. The situation will continue. In that case, the reproduction time is spent only on the same advertisement image many times, and other advertisement images are not reproduced at all.

It is the third aspect of the invention to consider such inconvenience. In this case, if there is the same advertisement video that is continuously played a predetermined number of times without being played back to the end, the video playback control means, when the video playback means plays the next advertisement video, interrupts the advertisement. As for the video, the playback is finished from the beginning to the end with priority over the main video. For example, if you interrupt two times in a row,
At the third time, the reproduction is finished from the beginning to the end.

For example, when the length of one advertisement video is 15 seconds and the request is repeated at intervals of, for example, 10 seconds shorter than that length, the first 1 of the advertisement video is used.
Only 0 seconds will be played many times and will not move to the next advertisement image.
In this case, even if there is a request for the third time, the main video is played back after all 15 seconds have been played back. Basically, it is preferable to give priority to the main video, but in this example, the main video is kept waiting for about 5 seconds, which is once every three times, so it is considered to be practically acceptable. To give an extreme example, even if the request was repeated 30 times at an interval of 10 seconds, only the first 10 seconds of the same advertisement video was played, but as described above, the entire advertisement is played for the third time. In this case, 10 advertisement videos will be reproduced by 30 requests. As described above, basically, the priority is given to the main video, and the advertisement video is exceptionally prioritized appropriately in consideration of the balance, thereby improving the effectiveness as the advertisement video reproducing device in the request-type video providing system. be able to.

0, S250, and S330 in FIG. 4 correspond to the processing as the video reproduction control means.

As described above, the advertisement image is displayed while the background image of the karaoke piece which is the main image is displayed. However, when the request for the karaoke piece is input, the advertisement image is reproduced. Is stopped immediately, so that the background image for karaoke is not interrupted.

When the reproduction of the advertisement video ends midway, the reproduction of the advertisement video is started again from the beginning when the next advertisement video is reproduced. The possibility of continuous display from the beginning to the end increases, and a sufficient advertising effect can be obtained as an advertisement.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiments as described above, and can be carried out in various modes without departing from the scope of the present invention. For example, an example in which an advertisement video is exceptionally reproduced in preference to the background video for karaoke will be described. As described above, the advertisement video uses the period in which the background video for karaoke, which is the main video, is not displayed, and it is basically preferable that the background video be prioritized. However, in some cases, the same advertisement image may be interrupted many times in succession. For example, if a request is repeated at an interval shorter than the length of one advertisement video, only the first part of the same advertisement video is played many times, and the state where it is not played to the end is continued. become. In that case, the reproduction time is spent only on the same advertisement image many times, and other advertisement images are not reproduced at all.

In consideration of such an inconvenience, when there is the same advertisement video which is continuously interrupted a predetermined number of times without being reproduced to the end, only the interrupted advertisement video is reproduced when the next advertisement video is reproduced. Even if there is a request to play karaoke,
Playback is completed from the beginning to the end with priority over the background image. For example, when the same advertisement image is interrupted twice in succession, the reproduction is completed from the beginning to the end in the third time. As described above, basically, the priority is given to the karaoke background image, but the priority is given to the advertisement image as appropriate in consideration of the balance, so that the advertisement image reproducing device in the karaoke system as the request type image providing system The effectiveness can be improved.
