The present invention relates to a content providing method and a system thereof, and more particularly, in a VoD or the like, even if a subscriber watches a content and logs out, the content can be continuously viewed from the next part of the content that was being watched upon reconnection. View service providing method and system thereof.

Recently, thanks to the development of the Internet, streaming-type content providing services such as Video on Demand (VoD) and Audio on Demand (AoD) are provided to enable users to watch contents such as movies and music in real time regardless of time and place. Be in the spotlight.

The system for a content providing service as described above includes a terminal equipped with a media player on the user side, and a streaming server for transmitting video data in a streaming method and a VoD web server for providing a web page and authenticating a subscriber on the content provider side. Is provided. Hereinafter, a description will be given taking an example of a "VoD service" that provides a movie as its content, and "user" and "subscriber" will be described in the same meaning in parallel.

In general, in order to receive VoD service, the user accesses the web page provided by the VoD web server through a computer and registers (for example, receives an ID / password), and then authenticates the subscriber through a login procedure. You will select the movie you want to watch on the web page.

Accordingly, the VoD web server passes a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) pointing to the movie to the user's computer, preferably a web browser, and the web browser of the user's computer calls the media player to pass the URL.

Then, the media player of the user's computer accesses the corresponding URL, preferably a specific URL of the streaming server, and requests the media player to transmit a movie corresponding to the URL. Accordingly, the streaming server streams the video data corresponding to the URL. To the user's computer. Thus, the user will watch from the beginning of the movie through the media player running on the computer.

In the VoD service described above, a subscriber may log out while watching a movie, for example, automatic logout due to power off of the computer, automatic logout due to the termination of the media player, or logout by the user on a web page. Occurs frequently. This is due to various situations such as the situation where the subscriber must go out before watching the movie to the end, the situation where the user must stop watching the movie due to other business, or the company wants to watch the movie at home after work.

By the way, in the prior art as described above, in the case of login and movie selection through a web page in order to view a movie previously watched by the subscriber, the subscriber can immediately provide it from the beginning of the movie selected by the subscriber. I can't offer that part of the movie I watched.

For example, in the prior art as described above, the subscriber has to reselect a movie previously watched on the movie list while viewing the menu after logging in and logging in to the webpage. There is a problem that must be seen again from the beginning of the previously watched movie.

Also, in line with the recent era of portable Internet, subscribers are increasingly demanding that they watch movies that have been watched through computers such as homes and companies on their portable terminals while on the go.

Therefore, subscribers can conveniently designate the movie resumption without having to surf, search, or work on a difficult web page to continue the movie. Subsequently, there is an urgent need for a technology that enables viewing.

The present invention has been proposed to solve the above problems and to meet the above demands, and even if the subscriber logs out after viewing the contents in VoD, the user can continue to watch the next part of the contents which he was watching at the time of reconnection. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and system for providing a content retrieval service.

The method of the present invention for achieving the above object, in the content providing method, while receiving the content resume request signal from the terminal in the middle of transmitting the content to the terminal in accordance with the content request from the terminal, A content retrieval receiving step of registering a subscriber ID, a content code, and a content playing time corresponding to the viewing request signal; A content retrieval application inspection step of checking whether there is a content retrieval request from the subscriber while performing subscriber authentication while receiving a login through a specific terminal from the subscriber in the state of registering the content retrieval application; A content information identifying step of identifying a content code and a content playing time previously registered in correspondence with the subscriber if there is a request for resuming content from the subscriber as a result of the content retrieval request inspection; And a content transmission step of transmitting from the corresponding portion of the content corresponding to the identified content code and the content playing time to the terminal in which the login is made, wherein the terminal is interlocked with a sensing means for detecting departure of the subscriber, The content resume request signal is generated through the means.

In addition, the method of the present invention, after receiving the content resume preview signal from the terminal after the step of accepting the content resume, the step of deleting the content re-view subscription request registered in advance corresponding to the subscriber of the terminal; It includes more.

In addition, the method of the present invention, in the state of releasing the content resume application details, if the subscriber receives the login through the specific terminal recognizes that there is no content resume request from the subscriber while performing subscriber authentication The solution further includes providing an initial web page to the specific terminal.

On the other hand, the system of the present invention, the content retrieval service providing system, Web server for providing a login web page to the subscriber; A subscriber DB for storing subscriber information; A streaming server for transmitting the corresponding content to the terminal through interworking with the web server; And a content DB for storing various contents, wherein the web server registers a subscriber ID, a content code, and a content playing time in the subscriber DB in response to a content resume request signal received from the terminal. In the case of receiving the (re) login through a specific terminal from the subscriber, the subscriber checks whether the subscriber has applied for content resumption based on the subscriber DB and starts the login from the content portion corresponding to the corresponding content code and content playback time. The streaming server is instructed to transmit to the terminal, and the terminal is interlocked with a sensing means for detecting departure of the subscriber, and the content resume request signal is generated through the sensing means.

The foregoing and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of the present invention when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which: There will be. In the following description, well-known functions or constructions are not described in detail since they would obscure the invention in unnecessary detail. Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a configuration diagram of an embodiment of a VoD system to which the present invention is applied.

As shown in FIG. 1, the VoD system to which the present invention is applied includes the terminal 10 on the subscriber side, the VoD web server 21, the subscriber DB 22, the streaming server 31, and the content provider side. DB 32 is included.

The subscriber terminal 10 is equipped with a web browser, a media player, etc. The VoD web server 21 of the content provider side is provided with a web page providing function and a subscriber authentication function. ) Stores information on the VoD service subscriber (eg, ID / password, billing information, etc.), the streaming server 31 is provided with a streaming video transmission function, and the content DB 32 includes various movie files. Etc. are stored.

According to the present invention, even if the subscriber logs out while watching a movie provided by the streaming server 31 through the terminal 10, for example, automatic logout due to computer power off, automatic logout due to the termination of the media player execution, and on a web page. Even if the subscriber logs out or the like, reconnects, for example, to the VoD web server 21 through the terminal 10 previously used, or to the VoD web server 21 through any terminal other than the terminal 10. If you log in after reconnecting, you can watch from the next part of the movie you were watching. Hereinafter, this service proposed in the present invention will be referred to as "content retrieval service".

In the content retrieval service as described above, the subscriber turns off the computer, terminates the execution of the media player, or displays the web page screen before watching the movie through a media player mounted on the terminal 10, for example, before logging out. Before closing or logging out directly on a web page, the terminal 10 only needs to express its intention to continue from the portion of the movie currently being watched.

To this end, the media player mounted on the terminal 10 is equipped with an interface that allows the subscriber to display the contents. In other words, the subscriber may input the command to resume content on the web page, but considering that the current subscriber is watching a movie through the media player, the user may immediately order the content resume command through the interface provided in the media player. It is desirable to be able to.

2 is a diagram illustrating an embodiment of a media player to which the present invention is applied.

As mentioned above, the media player of the subscriber terminal 10 is equipped with a "Resume Contents button", and the subscriber presses the Resume Contents button before logging out while watching a movie, and then presses the next of the movie. From the part, the intention to continue is made.

In consideration of the fact that the media player does not have the function of the content resume command as described above, when a subscriber subscribes to the content resume service [preferably, a separate supplementary service form when joining a VoD service]. The media player can be upgraded by distributing the content resume command function upgrade file to the terminal 10 of the subscriber.

On the other hand, the subscriber terminal 10 plays the video data provided from the streaming server 31 linked with the VoD web server 21 due to the characteristics of the VoD service, and the terminal 10 is entirely a VoD web server 21 and It is constrained by the streaming server 31. Considering this point, the content resume command issued by the terminal 10 is transmitted to the VoD web server 21, and it is preferable that the VoD web server 21 handle the content resume request of the subscriber. Hereinafter, this service processing flow will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 3.

3 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a method for providing a content retrieving service according to the present invention.

Before describing this service processing flow, the DB configuration used for this service will be described first.

The content provider coded the codes for each movie to be provided to the subscriber by category (eg, domestic movie, foreign movie, horror movie, etc.) and stores the content code in a DB. It is noted that this content code can be used not only for the present service but also for the existing VoD service.

The content code is preferably stored corresponding to each content in the content DB 32 in which the actual content file is stored. In addition, the content code information may be loaded into the VoD web server 21 in the service preprocessing process [pre] through interworking between the VoD web server 21 and the streaming server 31 in order to prevent the service processing delay. .

[Table 1] below shows a part of the content code DB. For example, a movie called "the dock" has a content code "21".

Content code (movie code) Domestic Movies (1) Foreign Movies (2) Horror Movies (3) Movie Name code Movie Name code Movie Name code Beautiful youth One The Dog One cello One Detective 2 Blue angel 2 Georgia 2 Strong 3 Class 3 Bookkeeper 3 Red Eye 3

On the other hand, in consideration of the fact that the service is made at the time of the subscriber's VoD web server (re) connection, it is preferable to check whether the subscriber has applied for content retrieval in the process of performing authentication upon login of the subscriber.

To this end, a content retrieval field is added to a subscriber information table provided in the subscriber DB 22, for example, a subscriber information table consisting of a subscriber ID field and a subscriber password field, and stored in a DB.

In other words, when a content resubmission request is received from a subscriber who has been watching a movie through the terminal 10, the VoD web server 21 recognizes the content resubmission request of the subscriber and enters "1" in the content retrieval field of the subscriber. Make a note of it.

Subsequently, when the subscriber logs in while re-connecting to the VoD web server 21 after logging out, the VoD web server 21 performs subscriber authentication through a subscriber information table. This subscriber will be checked to see if they have previously applied for content resume.

In the subscriber information table, whether or not to apply for content resumption as described above can provide the service to the subscriber immediately while minimizing the existing authentication function by determining whether to process the service while performing the subscriber authentication. This is to save the hassle of applying for service by selecting menu while moving web page to use service. In other words, the subscriber has previously applied for the service only by clicking on the content resume button loaded on the media player, and afterwards, the user simply logs in by accessing a web page provided by the VoD web server 21 and logging in. You will be provided immediately.

[Table 2] below shows a subscriber information table to which a content replay field is added.

Subscriber ID Subscriber password Resume content (0: no, 1: yes) won213 xxxxxxxx 0 ych xxxxxxxx One jsoonch xxxxxxxx One

On the other hand, when receiving a content request from the subscriber who was watching a movie through the terminal 10, the VoD web server 21 should be able to determine which part of the movie the subscriber was watching.

To this end, the subscriber DB 22 is provided with a separate table (hereinafter referred to as "subscriber viewing content table") that can store information about the movie that the subscriber was watching, the VoD web server 21 in the terminal ( 10) When receiving the content request from the subscriber through the subscriber ID and the movie information that the subscriber was watching, such as the content code and the content playing time (or content frame) is recorded in the subscriber viewing content table.

Table 3 below shows a subscriber viewing content table. Using the first row of this table as an example, a subscriber named "ych" had watched the content code "21" [movie: The Dog] for 21 minutes and 32 seconds. This section shows the subscriber's request to continue watching. In addition, considering that video data such as a movie is generally made up of a combination of frames, a content frame may be recorded instead of the content playback time in the subscriber viewing content table.

Subscriber ID Content code Content duration (or content frame) ych 21 21 minute, 32 seconds jsoonch 13 58 minute, 25 seconds

Hereinafter, this service flow will be described in detail with reference to a DB used for the service described above through Tables 1 to 3. In the following, the subscriber accesses a web page provided by the VoD web server 21 through the terminal 10, logs in, selects a specific movie, and the streaming server 31 transmits video data to the subscriber terminal 10. The process of doing so will be omitted.

First, the subscriber (eg, the ID "ych") is watching a movie through a media player mounted on the terminal 10, and then the contents mounted on this media player to request to watch from the next part of the movie currently being watched. Click the continue button (301).

Accordingly, the content code (eg "21") of the movie currently being played by the terminal 10 (preferably a media player) and the content playing time (eg "21 minutes 32 seconds") of the movie are recorded on the VoD Web. The server 21 transmits to the server 21 (302). At this time, considering the point [subscriber login completed] previously connected between the terminal 10 and the VoD web server 21 (or the streaming server 31), the subscriber ID (eg, from the terminal 10 to the VoD web server 21). It is not necessary to transmit "ych" separately, but uniformly transmits the subscriber ID, content code, and content playing time from the terminal 10 to the VoD web server 21 to facilitate the processing of a large number of subscriber service request transactions. It may be.

As another example, the terminal 10 does not transmit additional content information, for example, a subscriber ID, a content code, and a content playing time, to the VoD web server 21, but only a content retrieval request signal is used for the VoD web server 21. Can also be sent. In this example, since the streaming server 31 recognizes the content information transmitted from the terminal 10, the terminal 10 does not need to transmit additional content information. Instead, the VoD web server 21 streams the content information. Recognize information (including subscriber ID, content code, and content playing time) provided for the movie provided to the terminal 10 at the time of receiving the content resume request signal from the terminal 10 through interworking with the server 31. Just do it. Hereinafter, an example of transmitting a subscriber ID, a content code, and a content playing time from the terminal 10 to the VoD web server 21 will be described.

Then, the VoD web server 21 recognizes the content retrieval request from the subscriber, records [1] in the content retrieval field of the subscriber information table as shown in [Table 2], and also [Table 3]. Subscriber ID ("ych"), content code ("21") and content playback time ("21 minutes 32 seconds") are recorded [registered] with one row added to the subscriber viewing content table such as 303).

On the other hand, after the content subscription request is subscribed to the subscriber (304).

Thereafter, the subscriber (re) connects to the web page provided by the VoD web server 21 via the terminal 10 and logs in to continue from the portion of the previously watched movie (305).

Then, the VoD web server 21 checks the content retrieval field of the subscriber information table as shown in [Table 2] while performing subscriber authentication and checks whether there has been a previous content retrieval request from this subscriber (306). .

As a result of the check 306, if there has not been a request for resuming content from the subscriber before (for example, the content resumption field "0"), the VoD web server 21 is configured to perform a webpage after performing subscriber authentication (e.g. An initial web page for selection may be provided to the terminal 10 (307). In this case, the subscriber selects a movie he / she wants to watch in the same manner as before, and it can be seen that the subscriber did not click the content resume button before.

If the inspection result 306 has previously requested content resumption from the subscriber (e.g., content replay field "1"), the VoD web server 21 performs the subscriber authentication as shown in [Table 3]. The content code ("21") and the content reproduction time ("21 minutes 32 seconds") corresponding to this subscriber (ID "ych") recorded in the viewing content table are identified (308). Here, the VoD web server 21 may display a phrase indicating that the content resumption is being performed on the webpage while the content resumption service is being processed, so that the subscriber may wait.

Then, the VoD web server 21 identifies the content information previously viewed by the subscriber so that the content can be provided to the subscriber terminal 10 so that the content code (" 21 ") and the content playing time can be provided. Instructing the streaming server 31 to transmit the moving picture data corresponding to "21 minutes 32 seconds" to the terminal 10 corresponding to the subscriber "ych" (309).

In response to the connection between the streaming server 31 and the terminal 10, the streaming server 31 corresponds to the content playing time " 21 minutes 32 seconds " of the movie " the Dock " corresponding to the content code " 21 " In operation 310, video data is transmitted to the terminal 10.

Here, the video data transmission and reception process between the streaming server 31 and the terminal 10 may be implemented in various ways.

For example, the streaming server 31, which has been instructed to transmit a portion of a certain movie from the VoD web server 21 to the terminal 10, calls the media player to the terminal 10 and waits for itself. It may be instructed to play the video data received from the [streaming server], and then the streaming server 31 may transmit a specific portion of the video data to the terminal 10.

As another example, the VoD web server 21 streams to the terminal 10 while the VoD web server 21 commands the streaming server 31 to transmit a part of a certain movie to the terminal 10. Points to the corresponding content access URL of the server 31 and instructs the user to access the URL. When the streaming server 31 receives a connection from the terminal 10, a specific portion of the video data is transmitted to the terminal 10 at that time. You can also send. In addition, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the video data transmission and reception process between the streaming server 31 and the terminal 10 may be implemented in various ways.

Meanwhile, the present invention also considers a case in which a subscriber wants to view another content from the beginning after applying for the content resume. To this end, it is preferable to further include an interface for generating a content resume view signal to the subscriber terminal.

For example, when the VoD web server receives a content resume release signal from a subscriber terminal, the content resubmission request item [the content resubmission request registered in the subscriber information table and the subscriber ID registered in the subscriber viewing content table] are registered. , Content code, and content play time] are deleted.

As described above, the VoD web server recognizes that there is no request for resuming content from the subscriber while performing a subscriber authentication when the VoD web server receives a login through a specific terminal from the subscriber. Provide the initial web page to the subscriber in such a manner. Accordingly, the subscriber selects the content to watch through the movie list displayed on the initial web page.

4 is a diagram illustrating an embodiment of a content playback screen before and after the present invention is applied.

The left side of FIG. 4 shows a content playback screen when the subscriber clicks on the content resume button loaded in the media player, and the right side of FIG. 4 shows that the subscriber has logged in while reconnecting to a web page provided by the VoD web server. It shows the content playback screen of the viewpoint, and the subscriber can continue to watch the portion of the movie that was previously watched anytime, anywhere.

5 is a configuration diagram of an embodiment of a U-healthcare system to which the present invention is applicable.

Figure 5 is a simplified illustration of the current U-health care system that is in the spotlight, the user in the U-health care system to exercise through the treadmill, the radio frequency identification (RFID) tag and possessed by the user Through the RFID reader attached to the treadmill, the user's exercise information is provided to the remote exercise manager.

In the U-healthcare system as described above, the user is exercising through a treadmill while watching a VoD service, such as a movie, displayed on a large monitor, and often leaves the place for a while while watching a movie.

In view of the above, in consideration of the fact that the user cannot properly click the media player's resume button during the exercise, the RFID reader is interoperated with the terminal equipped with the media player, the terminal connected to the VoD system and the RFID reader. In this case, the RFID reader cannot recognize the RFID tag as the user exit, and the terminal receiving the user departure reported from the RFID reader automatically requests the content resumption to the VoD system.

As mentioned above, this service is provided through the interface with the input / output interface that is adopted in other technical fields such as the U-healthcare system as well as the keyboard and mouse installed in the terminal. May be provided.

As another example, the present service may be provided through interworking with the above-described RFID reader and RFID tag and the terminal, or the present service may be provided not only through the computer keyboard but also through the terminal control through the remote controller, which is the most common method in the house. .

For example, in IPTVs, DVD players, DMB devices, and the like, a remote controller is provided for a terminal that plays a video (preferably video on demand from a content provider). In view of this point, the content retrieving service process may be performed when the content retrieving button is mounted on the remote control in a hotkey manner or when a preset button or the like is pressed on the remote control without a separate button.

As another example, a terminal equipped with a media player, substantially a terminal connected to a VoD system, and an RFID reader are interlocked, and the subscriber selects the use of the service through a remote control and selects a content resume button from among the remote control buttons. You can apply to continue the content during the exercise. Of course, as mentioned above, the subscriber may release the content re-view items already requested by pressing the content re-release button. Here, in consideration of the fact that the remote control cannot be equipped with a plurality of specific buttons for the service, when a specific hotkey button is initially selected or shortly pressed, a content resume request signal is generated, and the specific hotkey button is again displayed. In the case of being selected or pressed for a long time, a content resume signal may be generated.

In particular, in the above-described example, in consideration of the fact that the subscriber's input means uses a remote controller instead of a separate keyboard, it is necessary to facilitate the use of the subscriber to (re) log in to subsequently view the contents.

To this end, in the above-described example, the RFID reader and the RFID tag described above perform the subscriber authentication function and transmit the result to the VoD web server through the terminal, so that the subscriber omits a procedure such as inputting a separate ID / password. Do it.

The method of the present invention as described above may be embodied as a program and stored in a computer-readable recording medium (such as a CD-ROM, a RAM, a ROM, a floppy disk, a hard disk, or a magneto-optical disk). Since this process can be easily implemented by those skilled in the art will not be described in more detail.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. The present invention is not limited to the drawings.

As described above, the present invention has the effect of allowing the subscriber to watch the contents from the next part of the contents which were being watched at the time of reconnection even after logging out.

In addition, the present invention has the effect that it is possible to simply use the service without the hassle caused by the web page movement, menu selection, content designation, etc., since the subscriber can continue to watch from the previously viewed content portion even if the (re) login only. .

In addition, by performing the present service together with the subscriber authentication process, the present invention has the effect of saving the system resources required for the present additional service in VoD and providing the present service to the user immediately.

In addition, the present invention has the effect that the user can easily enjoy the desired content anytime, anywhere through any terminal, such as a computer, laptop, portable device.
