Description

Method for providing reconstructed content and apparatus for providing IP service for performing the same {Method and IPTV system for providing reorganized content}

The present invention relates to a reconstructed content providing method and an IPTV service providing apparatus for performing the same. More particularly, the present invention provides a reconstructed content providing method for providing customized broadcast content for each user according to a user's request and performing the same. It relates to an IPTV service providing apparatus.

Recently, as the demand for IPTV increases, many new services based on the technical characteristics of IPTV, which are completely different from the conventional TV systems, have appeared. This is because IPTV transmits broadcast data through an IP network rather than a conventional wired / wireless TV network, and thus has completely different characteristics from those of a conventional TV.

The most important difference is that interactive communication is possible between the TV system and the user terminal. With conventional TV systems the user could only choose to watch it or not. However, in the case of IPTV, since the broadcasting data is received and displayed through the IP network, the information or message that the user wants to deliver to the IPTV service provider can be delivered to the IPTV provider in real time using only the IP access device, not a separate transmission device.

By using this, the user can watch a desired broadcast at a desired time. For example, a TV operator may request that a user selects and transmits a desired broadcast personally, rather than all users watching the same broadcast.

Since the broadcast is transmitted to the user terminal through the IP network, different data packets may be transmitted individually, and when the broadcast content is secured, the user terminals may theoretically watch different broadcasts.

However, when looking at the contents transmitted through the broadcast data, there are contents that are consistently progressed with one theme, and contents produced with several sub-themes are becoming more common. For example, an hour's worth of broadcast content often contains independent videos for each playback section with multiple themes. In the case of educational broadcast contents, even a one-hour lecture includes various subjects or lecture topics.

However, despite being an IPTV system capable of two-way communication and a Video on Demand (VOD) service, only broadcast contents can be selected and viewed, and various topics included in broadcast contents cannot be selected and viewed. Recently, due to the rapid spread of the Internet, the video viewing trend of users should be able to select the dishes to choose what they want at any time, which is not reflected in the current IPTV. That is, the conventional IPTV system does not provide completely customized content.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems of the prior art, and transmits section identification information that can be divided into sections for content to the user terminal and receives selection information for a desired section from the user and reconstructed accordingly. The purpose is to provide reconstructed content.

Other objects of the present invention will become more apparent through the preferred embodiments described below.

1 is a diagram illustrating a network including an apparatus for providing an IPTV service according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 may include programs, data, and contents necessary for providing IPTV services from a PP (Program Provider, 110), a DP (Data Provider, 120), and a CP (Content Provider, 130), respectively. Can be provided through a communication network. The IPTV service providing apparatus 100 may be connected to the PP 110, the DP 120, and the CP 130 through an IP network, or may be connected through a separate dedicated network. Separately, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 according to another embodiment of the present invention may have its own content DB (not shown).

The IPTV service providing apparatus 100 may include a broadcast content management device 102, an IP MUX 104, a selection information management device 106, and a selection information receiving device 108. However, this is only an example for explaining the broadcast data providing method of the present invention, the subscriber authentication device (not shown), the charging device (not shown), the audio / video encoding device (not shown) inside the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 Of course, it may be included more).

The broadcast content management device 102 collects and manages broadcast content to be transmitted to the user terminal 150. The broadcast content management apparatus 102 transmits to the IPMUX 104 according to a preset schedule so that data to be transmitted to the user can be combined and transmitted to the user. IPMUX 104 corresponds to a content transmission unit.

However, in the conventional IPTV service providing apparatus 100, the broadcast content management apparatus 102 merely transmits the broadcast content table or the broadcast content selected by the user to the IPMUX 104 in order to organize and transmit the content in units of content. Even though the program is divided into content units even though reflecting the user's demand, the user cannot select and view the content by tax theme or theme within the content.

However, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 of the present invention may separate the content transmitted to the user terminal for each detailed theme, and select and transmit one or several separated theme-specific contents to the user.

To this end, the broadcast content management device 102 provides a user interface (UI) to the user terminal 150 to select content by section. The UI may be transmitted to the user terminal 150 through the IPMUX 104 via the IP network 140, or may be transmitted to the user through a separate UI provider (not shown). However, for convenience of description, the following description will focus on the case in which the broadcast content management apparatus 102 and the IPMUX 104 are transmitted to the user terminal 150.

For example, the UI may include a selection window that allows the user to select an hour and a half of video content divided into sections by detailed theme, and a preview (thumbnail image, etc.) may be attached to each section. The description and playback time can be displayed. An embodiment of the UI will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 3.

Therefore, the user terminal 150 can receive the UI and display it on the screen. The user terminals 150, 160, 170, and 180 may be included in the case of a digital device capable of receiving and displaying broadcast content transmitted from the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 such as a digital TV, a computer, a PDA, and the like.

The user terminal 150 first displays a UI received from the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 so that the user can search for desired content. In other words, such as a video search service provided in a general search portal site, a user can enter or select a keyword key word (for example, "reading"). The input keyword main word is transmitted to the selection information receiver 108 of the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 through the IP network 140 by the user selecting a soft button such as "OK".

The selection information receiving device 108 transmits the keyword main word received from the IP network 140 to the selection information managing device 106, and the selection information managing device 106 transmits the broadcast content according to the keyword main word to the PP 110, Request to DP 120 or CP 130.

Accordingly, the PP 110, the DP 120, or the CP 130 search each database (not shown) to search for contents related to keyword keywords. Since each database stores broadcast content by time and details of broadcast content, the PP 110, DP 120, or CP 130 searches for the corresponding content and provides it to the IPTV service providing apparatus 100.

However, this is only one embodiment of the present invention, and in another embodiment, when the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 has a separate database storing broadcast content, the corresponding database is queried and associated with the keyword keyword. You can also search for broadcast content.

Content collected as a result of the above-described search is divided in detail for each theme, and a thumbnail image which is a preview image for each theme may be generated in JPEG format. That is, metadata is generated so that the user terminal can distinguish each sub content from the original content. To explain this in more detail, one-and-a-half-minute entertainment content includes a 30-minute section related to "health" (also called a corner in broadcast content), a 30-minute section related to "reading", and "economic" Generates metadata to distinguish each one-hour interval associated with. The metadata may be the above-mentioned thumbnail image, or may be text information indicating a title and a quantity of a corresponding section.

In addition, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 may temporarily store the content divided into detailed sections for each separate theme in a separate storage device or database.

The generated metadata is transmitted from the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 to the user terminal 150, 160, 170, or 180 and displayed on the user terminal 150, 160, 170, or 180. Therefore, the user can see a UI that can identify and identify the contents related to the keyword main word transmitted by each section.

Therefore, the user may select each section or corner included in detail among one broadcast content through the UI. The user may select only a desired section on the UI among a plurality of broadcast contents displayed through the UI.

When the user selects and transmits a menu such as "selection" on the UI, selection information indicating which section of which content is selected is transmitted to the selection information receiver 108 of the IPTV service providing apparatus 100. The selection information management device 106 receives the selection information from the selection information receiving device 108 and sends the selection information to the broadcast data management device.

The broadcast content management device 102 categorizes only a section selected by the user according to the selection information and transmits the selected section to the user terminal 150 which transmits the selection information through the IPMUX 104. In this case, when the information on the playback order for the divided sections selected by the selection information is included, the content is reconfigured to transmit the order of delivery of the selected sections in the order included in the selection information.

Therefore, the user terminal 150 is composed of only the corner selected by the user to completely reproduce the customized content.

Although the UE1 150 is assumed and described above as the user terminal, this is merely an example, and the plurality of user terminals 150, 160, 170, and 180 may be provided with the broadcast data service of the present invention. In this case, the selection information management device 106 of the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 may calculate statistical data about a broadcast content and a section preferred by the user, which may be attached when the above-described UI is provided. This allows the user to select the corresponding corner by referring to the section that other users prefer for the subject. That is, by selecting a section that is not useful to the user, there is an effect that the user can prevent unnecessary billing.

2 is a flowchart for sequentially explaining a process of performing a broadcast data service providing method of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, first, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 transmits segment identification information to the user terminal 150 (S200). This is performed in a state in which the user terminal 150 transmits a desired keyword keyword to the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 and collects broadcast content including a section of the subject requested by the user from the IPTV service providing apparatus 100. Can be.

 In the user terminal 150, segment identification information transmitted to the user terminal is displayed in step S200 (S210), which may be displayed on a UI that is already displayed on the user terminal 150. It may be displayed on the user terminal 150 while being switched.

After that, the user first selects the desired broadcast content by using an input unit (key pad, etc.) included in the user terminal 150 or by using a separate remote controller, a mouse, an optical pointer, and secondly, Select an interval. For each section, a text or a preview image displaying the content of the section and the playing time may be displayed.

The user may transmit selection information for identifying the section selected through manipulation of the UI from the user terminal 150 to the IPTV service providing apparatus 100.

The IPTV service providing apparatus 100 reconstructs broadcast data to be transmitted to the user terminal 150 based on the received selection information. For example, it may be assumed that a user selects 10 sections from five broadcast contents to transmit selection information. In this case, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 separates five original contents for each section, collects only the sections selected by the user, and reconstructs them in the selected order.

The IPTV service providing apparatus 100 transmits the reconstructed content to the user terminal 150.

The reconstructed broadcast data is displayed on the user terminal 150, so that the user can watch the reconstructed content collected only for the sections configured for each theme that he / she wants to watch, and there is no need to watch all the contents.

In the IPTV service providing apparatus 100, the user terminal 150 calculates reconstruction statistical information about a content and a section selected for the keyword key word. The reconstruction statistical information may calculate statistical information such as a selection frequency for the content selected by the user and a selection frequency for the corresponding section.

The calculated reconstruction statistical information may be transmitted to a plurality of user terminals or posted on a web page through a separate web server (not shown) that interworks with the IPTV service providing apparatus 100. In addition, the reconstruction statistical information may be transmitted to the PP (110), DP (120) or CP (130) may be used as a reference for producing a program, data or content, and the data necessary to implement a different charging policy for the corresponding section. It may also be used as.

3 is a diagram illustrating a UI displayed on a user terminal in order to perform the broadcast data providing method of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, a UI provided by the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 is posted on a display unit of the user terminal 150. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the UI may not be provided by the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 but may be a web page provided by a separate web server (not shown) interoperating with the IPTV service providing apparatus 100. Self-explanatory

The search box is located at the bottom left of the UI. When a user inputs a desired keyword subject in the search box and starts searching, the keyword subject is transmitted to the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 through the IP network 140.

As described above with reference to FIG. 2, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 collects broadcast content including a section associated with a keyword main word, generates metadata for classifying the corresponding content according to detailed topics, and provides the metadata to the user terminal 150. To send).

As meta data transmitted by the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 is transmitted to the user terminal 150, the number of contents (1, 2, 3) is displayed at the center of the UI, and the preview image for each content is divided. To distinguish between them.

For example, the first content 310 is composed of four sections, the first of which is a video for "reading", and the playing time is 5 minutes and 20 seconds. In addition, the second content 320 is also composed of four sections, the third corner is the video for the "read", the playback time is 15 minutes. The third content 330 also includes a 30 minute play time for " reading ".

Accordingly, the user may select desired sections of the contents 310, 320, and 330 by using an input device such as a mouse. At the bottom of the selected corners 311, 321, and 331, an indication indicating that the selection is selected is displayed. Although not shown in FIG. 3, 50 minutes and 20 seconds (= 5 minutes 20 seconds + 15 minutes + 30 minutes), which is a total playing time of the selected section, may be displayed.

Then, when the user presses the "Request" button on the upper right side using an input device such as a mouse, selection information indicating which corner the user has selected in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd contents is displayed in the IPTV service providing apparatus ( 100).

Therefore, as described with reference to FIG. 2, the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 transmits the respective sections separated from contents 1, 2, and 3 in order (311, 321, and 331) in order, so that the user terminal 150 has a 1st time. The corners 311, 321, and 331 that are matched to the user's topic of interest, instead of the entire contents of the second and third contents, are reproduced in order. However, according to the user's selection, the information (order information) on the reproduction order may be included in the selection information and transmitted together. In this case, each corner separated according to the order information transmitted by the user is transmitted and reproduced.

4 is a view for explaining a process of reconfiguring broadcast content for broadcast content transmission of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, first, after the keyword content is collected from the user terminal 150, the broadcast content is collected. When the IPTV service providing apparatus 100 receives selection information from the user, the broadcast content is reconfigured based on the selection information. The process is shown.

The broadcast data DB 400, the broadcast content management device 410, and the selection information management device 420 may be components included in the IPTV service providing device 100 described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, and an IPTV service providing device. It may be a separate device that is connected and interlocked through a communication network to exchange data with the 100. However, hereinafter, the broadcast content management device 410 and the selection information management device 420 are included in the IPTV service providing device 100, and the broadcast data DB 400 includes the PP 110, the DP 120, or the CP ( Suppose that it is held at 130).

The broadcast content management device 410 queries the broadcast data DB 400 for broadcast content related to " read " according to the user's selection information, and responds to content 1, 2, 3 and 4 in response. Collect.

In this case, when each broadcast content stored in the broadcast data DB 400 is separated in advance for each section and identified using the identification information included in a separate header part and the header part, it may be used as it is. That is, when the preview image (for example, JPEG image) for each section is inserted at the start point of each section (header of each corner), the sections can be distinguished through the section, so that the user terminal 150 of It may be transmitted to the user terminal 150 to be output to the UI.

However, if the broadcast content is not divided by section, the broadcast content management device 410 separates each corner. As a method of separating broadcast contents, each broadcast content may be separated by sections using a method of searching for an image file or a text file inserted at the beginning of each section.

The broadcast content management device 410 may classify content 1, content 2, content 3 and content 4 into sections (A, B, C, D, E, F, G, ..., P). By transmitting the meta data to the user terminal 150, a screen for selecting each content and a corner is displayed on the UI of the user terminal 150. This is the same as described with reference to FIG. 3, so a detailed description thereof is omitted.

Thereafter, when the user terminal 150 receives selection information for selecting a section divided into B, K, M, and P, the broadcast content management apparatus 410 receives the section B of the content 1 and the content 3 of the section 3. The K section 321, the M section 351 and the P section 354 of the fourth content are combined to reconstruct the content to be transmitted to the user terminal.

Thereafter, the broadcast data reconstruction device 100 transmits the reconstructed content to the user terminal 150 so that the user terminal 150 can watch the customized content consisting of only a section selected by the user. However, when transmitted in a streaming method, the corners classified into B, K, M, and P may be sequentially transmitted to the user terminal 150 so that the user may sequentially view the corners selected by the user.

The selection information management device 420 receives the selection information used by the broadcast content management device 410 to reconstruct the content, determines which subject the user intends to reconstruct the content, and calculates the ranking.

For example, in the case that a trend for a recent reading is included in each broadcast content, if a user collects and views only the corners for reading, the reconstruction ratio of the section for reading will be high. Thus, in this way, the rankings of themes such as "first reading", "second cooking", and "third entertainment" can be calculated.

In addition, the ranking of the section selected by the user for recombination in each subject may be calculated. For example, in the case of selecting the corners for "reading", when the "B" section is selected the most, the "B" section may be calculated as first.

The reconstruction statistics as described above may be transmitted to the user terminal 150 and may be provided as a material for the user to refer to when viewing the personalized content by the broadcast data providing method of the present invention.

In addition, the reconstruction statistics may be transmitted to the PP 110, the DP 120, and the CP 130, and may be used as a viewer's favorite corner and theme, viewership statistics, and the like. Furthermore, the reconstruction statistics may be used as a reference for implementing a differential charging policy for frequently used contents or for determining broadcast contents that an advertising sponsor wants to sponsor.

The method of the present invention as described above may be implemented in a program and stored in a computer-readable recording medium (CD-ROM, RAM, ROM, floppy disk, hard disk, magneto-optical disk, etc.).

Although the above has been described with reference to the embodiments of the present invention, those skilled in the art may variously modify and modify the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as set forth in the claims below. It will be appreciated that it can be changed.
