Abstract
A multi-device-based multi-service providing method, system, and apparatus are provided. A system for providing multi-service based multi-services includes a control server for searching for additional information related to the content when a request to reproduce the content is received from the set-top box, a user who prefers the retrieved additional information among the users of the set- And a supplementary information providing server for providing the retrieved supplementary information to the auxiliary terminal based on the supplementary terminal information and the user information server for providing the supplementary terminal information of the extracted user, And synchronizes the output time of the content and the additional information.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method, an apparatus and a system for providing a multi-service, and more particularly, a method, an apparatus and a system for providing a multi-service based multi-service.
Recently, the number of IPTV service users is increasing rapidly. The IPTV service provides a variety of contents in addition to the unique functions of watching TV through interworking with various devices around the TV (set-top box) in the home.
For example, a service that exchanges opinions about watching contents with other people while watching TV.
However, in providing such a service, various problems are displayed by displaying the video contents and the additional information together on the TV screen.
One of the biggest problems is that users have a strong sense of rejection of being disturbed by watching TV.
I hate the fact that I am watching the content I want to watch, suddenly I hate the information that hides part of the screen or catches my eyes, and when many people watch together, I do not have exposure to personal information such as tweeting, It has a feeling of refusal to be disturbed by the information.
In addition, there are also limitations in providing various additional services during broadcasting. In order to connect information such as a product or a background area in the screen to actual purchase or reservation, it is inevitable that additional information overwrites the screen currently being watched, which makes viewing difficult.
Also, it is difficult to produce contents. The exposure range and position of the additional information must be determined in consideration of the relationship with the main content. The two pieces of information are tightly coupled, making it difficult to add or change additional information in the VOD content such as a broadcast view.
Therefore, in Korean Patent Publication No. 2010-69380 (a remote controller equipped with a content display device and an IPTV settop terminal associated therewith), an additional content separated from the broadcast content while viewing the broadcast content is viewed on a monitor screen attached to the remote controller And the like.
However, this is because the additional content separated from the broadcast content is simply transmitted to the remote controller so that the additional content does not interfere with the viewing, the additional information that is personalized for each user using the set-top box is provided, or the privacy can not be protected there was.
In order to solve the problems of the related art described above, the present invention manages association information between a content and related information, and synchronizes the reproduction time of the content with the exposure time of the additional information when the content and the additional information are simultaneously output.
In addition, the present invention provides various supplementary information related to contents outputted on a TV screen to an auxiliary terminal set for each user of the set-top box.
The objects of the present invention are not limited to the above-mentioned objects, and other objects not mentioned can be clearly understood from the following description.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a system for providing a multi-service based multi-service according to an aspect of the present invention includes: a control server for receiving, when a playback request for content is received from a set- The method includes extracting a user who prefers the retrieved supplementary information among the users of the set-top box, providing the retrieved supplementary information to the auxiliary terminal based on the user information server providing the extracted auxiliary terminal information of the user, And the control server synchronizes the output time of the content and the additional information.
In order to achieve the above object, an apparatus for providing multi-service based multi-service according to an aspect of the present invention searches for supplementary information corresponding to the reproduction point of time, A synchronization controller for controlling the output of the searched additional information by extracting an output time and an ending time of the searched additional information, an ID of the searched additional information and an ID of the settop box to the user information providing means, An auxiliary terminal information requesting unit for receiving auxiliary terminal information of a user who prefer the searched auxiliary information among the users of the settop box from the information providing means and an auxiliary terminal information requesting unit for inputting an ID of the searched auxiliary information and auxiliary Terminal information to the additional service providing means And an additional information output request unit for transmitting the additional information.
According to one aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for providing a multi-service based multi-service, the method comprising the steps of: (a) receiving a content playback request from a set- The method of claim 1, further comprising: providing an ID of the set-top box and an ID of the searched additional information; (b) providing a user who prefers the searched additional information among the users of the set-top box based on the ID of the set- (C) extracting the output time and end time of the searched additional information, and outputting the searched additional information based on the extracted output time and end time (D) controlling, based on the output control of the additional information and the auxiliary terminal information, The colored side information comprises the step of providing to said auxiliary device.
