To provide an interactive compact disc that can be updated.

In order to achieve the object of the present invention, an interactive compact disc is provided for browsing audio / video data that can be played in a CD / VCD player, an Internet automatic access program, and a web server on the Internet that serves specific contents that can be played / used on a computer. And providing an user interface according to the contents of the web-browsed Internet service, and storing an active browser which receives and updates necessary programs and data according to the characteristics and contents of the contents in connection with the web server serving the specific contents. It features.

Accordingly, the interactive compact disc of the present invention is capable of reproducing / utilizing audio / video data, a program that can be reproduced / used in a computer, and related data.

12: third track

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to FIG. 1, the first track 10 of an interactive compact disc according to the present invention stores audio / video data playable in a CD / VCD player.

In the second track 11, an Internet automatic access program is stored.

In the third track 12, a web server on the Internet serving a specific content that can be played / used on a computer is browsed, a user interface is provided according to the contents of the web browsing Internet service, and a web server serving the specific content is provided. The active browser is stored to update and receive necessary programs and data according to the characteristics and contents of the contents.

The active browser stored in the third track 12 is connected to an Internet Explorer engine module for browsing a web server on the Internet and an active browser program module for receiving and updating necessary programs and data according to the characteristics and contents of the content. It consists of.

By such a configuration, the interactive compact disc according to the present invention operates as shown in FIG.

First, when an interactive compact disc (hereinafter referred to as an interactive CD) according to the present invention is played in an existing CD / VCD player (S10), audio / stored in the first track 10 of the interactive CD Video data is played back (S11).

Next, when the interactive CD is played / used on the computer (S10), the computer executes an auto run program (S12) and determines whether to install the installed program on the interactive CD (S13).

If the interactive CD is played / used on the computer for the first time, the installation program of the computer is executed (S14). However, if the interactive CD has already been played / used on the computer, the computer executes an active browser stored in the third track 12 of the interactive CD (S15).

When the active browser is executed, first, the computer inquires of the user whether to execute the Internet automatic access program stored in the second track 11 of the interactive CD (S16).

At this time, if the user does not execute the Internet automatic access program, the computer executes the CD / VCD player program separately (S17) and accordingly audio / stored in the first track 10 of the interactive CD. Video data is played back on the computer (S18).

On the other hand, when the user executes the Internet automatic access program, the computer checks and configures a modem, a dial-up adapter, and TCP / IP, which is an Internet communication protocol, and then automatically connects to a specific Internet service provider.

When the computer is connected to the Internet service provider by executing the Internet autonomous program stored in the second track 11 of the interactive CD as described above, the computer continues to the third track 12 of the interactive CD. The web browser on the Internet is browsed by running the Internet Explorer engine module among the stored active browsers (S19).

In this case, in order to provide convenience to the user, the computer may be operated by an active browser program module among the active browsers stored on the third track 12 of the interactive CD, and according to the contents of the Internet service, which is browsed through the web. Provide an interface.

In addition, the computer drives an active browser program module among active browsers stored in the third track 12 of the interactive CD, and interoperates with a web server that serves a specific content selected by a user, thereby reproducing the characteristics and contents of the content. Therefore, it receives the necessary programs and data to update the computer (S20).

The interactive CD operating as described above can be applied to love records, computer games supporting online games, educational software, medical software, online magazines, other CD media, and home-grown materials that require customer care.

For example, if a user purchases an interactive CD of "singer Yoo Seung-jun" from a famous domestic lover and plays it on an existing CD / VCD player, the audio / video stored in the first track 10 of the interactive CD The data is played back.

On the other hand, when the user plays / uses the interactive CD on the computer, the computer does not execute the Internet autonomous program stored in the second track 11 of the interactive CD, and the computer does not execute the CD / VCD player program. To play the music and video video data of "Singer Yoo Seung-jun" stored in the first track 10 of the interactive CD.

In addition, when a user plays / uses the interactive CD on a computer, if the user executes the automatic internet access program, the computer is automatically connected to a specific Internet service provider and then connected to the third track 12 of the interactive CD. Among the active browsers stored, the Internet Explorer engine module is run to browse a web server on the Internet, and the home page of "Singer Yoo Seung Jun" is searched.

At this time, the computer drives the active browser program module among the active browsers stored in the third track 12 of the interactive CD to provide the user with an optimal user interface, and the user selects the "Singer Yoo Seung Jun" home page. In connection with the service web server, the computer receives data needed by the user (eg, "Singer Yoo Seung-jun", new concert schedule, and newly changed fan club information).

As described above, the interactive compact disc according to the present invention stores audio / video data that can be played in a CD / VCD player, and can access and update programs and data that can be played / used in a computer by accessing the Internet. Therefore, not only can a CD play / use audio / video data and a program and related data that can be played / used on a computer, but also information can be shared between a user and an Internet service provider through a conversation on the Internet.

What has been described above is only one embodiment for implementing the interactive compact disc according to the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and the gist of the present invention as claimed in the following claims. Various changes can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention.
