DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments of an apparatus and method for continuously controlling a series of contents in a video-on-demand service according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a configuration environment diagram of a device for continuously controlling a series of video in a video-on-demand service according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the video-on- demand video (VOD) And a plurality of set-top boxes 100 connected to the providing system 10 through a network. At this time, it may be constituted by another terminal that provides a video-on-demand service through bidirectional communication with the video-on-demand system in place of the set-top box.

The order-based video providing system 10 may include a head end server 11, a content server 12, and the like. The set-top box 100 may store video contents according to video on demand and related information related to the video contents .

For example, the head end server 11 of the video-on-demand system 10 may authenticate the user of the set-top box 100 and the content server 12 via bidirectional communication with the set- Top box 100, receives a download address of image content corresponding to input information corresponding to the user input from the set-top box 100, 100).

The set-top box 100 may access the content server 12 of the video-on-demand system 10 through the download address to download image content corresponding to the input information.

At this time, the image contents stored in the content server 12 of the video-on-demand system 10 may include a plurality of image contents grouped into a series of series. In this case, the term 'series' generally refers to a series of video contents grouped by continuity of contents included in the video contents such as a series of dramas and documentaries. However, the 'series' A group of image contents that need to be reproduced while maintaining a sequence of orders by the selection of the image content provider or the viewer (for example, a specific image A series of reproduction of contents and advertisement contents, bundling of image contents having a specific theme for convenience, etc.).

In this case, when providing a list of a plurality of video contents composed of the series, the head end server 11 transmits a plurality of video contents included in the series as one group information to the set- (100).

At this time, in order to sequentially view a plurality of image contents composed of the series through the set-top box 100, the user must select image contents to be downloaded for each of the plurality of image contents.

In order to solve this problem, the set-top box 100 identifies the video content of the series through the related information provided from the video-on-demand system 10, and automatically arranges a plurality of video contents grouped into a series And can be configured to continuously play back.

In order to support this, the head end server 11 provides meta data as the related information for continuous playback of a plurality of image contents grouped into the series, and determines whether the downloaded image contents is a series And may provide identification information including information on whether the image content is a series or not, and may provide the identification information as related information. Accordingly, the set-top box 100 determines whether the set-top box 100 is a series through the received metadata or the identification information of the image content in association with the selected image content according to the user input, One or more image contents corresponding to the one or more image contents can be sequentially downloaded and continuously played back.

However, in the case of continuous reproduction of such a plurality of image contents, the adolescents or children with weak self-control may view images for a long period of time and have an adverse effect due to excessive viewing. It is necessary to provide a support structure for inducing the child to find a consensus on the degree of viewing of parents and children, and an internal device of the set-top box for limiting the number of continuously reproduced image contents according to the degree of viewing.

FIG. 2 is a detailed block diagram of an apparatus for continuously controlling a series of contents in a video-on-demand service applied to the set-top box 100 of FIG. 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in the figure, in the video-on-demand service, the series continuous playback controller includes a communication unit 110, a user interface unit 120, a restoration algorithm storage unit 130, an output unit 140, a decoder unit 150, A content storage unit 160, a setting unit 170, and a control unit 180. [0034]

The control unit 180 may download and store a restoration algorithm module in the restoration algorithm storage unit 130 based on the user authentication through the video-on-demand system 10 and the communication unit 110, Related list such as an EPG provided from the video providing system 10 can be received through the communication unit 110 and output through the output unit 140 to the user.

Thereafter, the controller 180 receives the input information for the desired image content through the user interface unit 120, transmits the input information through the communication unit 110, 10 to the image content and related information corresponding to the input information.

Accordingly, the control unit 180 downloads the received image content, decodes the image content according to a restoration algorithm stored in the restoration algorithm storage unit 130, and outputs the decoded image content to the decoder unit 150 And output to the display unit of the television interlocked with the set-top box 100 to provide the image contents.

At this time, the controller 180 can identify whether the downloaded image content corresponds to the input information through the related information downloaded together with the image content, according to the input information, or the image content corresponding to the series. For example, the control unit 180 may identify whether the image content received through the image content, the metadata received separately, or the identification information provided to the image content is image content corresponding to the series.

Accordingly, when the image content corresponding to the series is downloaded, the controller 180 downloads the image content corresponding to the next sequence of the image content to the order-based video providing system 10 A request can be transmitted to download at least a part of the image content and related information corresponding to the next sequence.

At this time, the controller 180 may store the downloaded image content in the content storage unit 160, decodes the plurality of image content stored in the content storage unit 160 through the restoration algorithm sequentially, Decoded by the decoder unit 150, and then output through the output unit 140 to be continuously reproduced.

In addition, when there are a plurality of different image contents grouped in the same series as the downloaded image contents corresponding to the input information, the controller 180 can sequentially download the other image contents and continuously play the same.

In addition, the control unit 180 may receive setting information on whether or not to perform the continuous playback according to a user input through the user interface unit 120, store the setting information in the setting unit 170, It is also possible to perform the continuous reproduction as described above when the continuous reproduction is selected in accordance with the setting information of the display unit 170. [

Meanwhile, when continuous reproduction is selected in the above-mentioned procedure, when continuous reproduction is performed for the adolescents and children with low self-control as described above, excessive viewing is feared. To prevent this, the control unit sets the setting for limiting the continuous reproduction And may further receive the setting information through the user interface unit 120.

That is, the present invention provides a configuration for supporting the parent to limit the viewing time or the number of viewing times by allowing the child to directly input the setting information through agreement between the parent and the child.

3, the controller 180 controls the number of continuously-reproducible video content (continuous) to limit continuous playback, as shown in FIG. 3, through the user interface unit 120 The number of reproducible times) or the continuous reproduction time can be input as the setting information, and the setting information can be stored in the setting unit 170. At this time, the setting unit 170 may be included in the controller 180.

Accordingly, the control unit 180 may limit the number of image contents to be continuously reproduced in the continuous reproduction through the setting information of the setting unit 170, or may limit the number of image contents to be continuously reproduced within a limited time according to the continuous reproduction time The number can be limited.

Hereinafter, the configuration for restricting the continuous playback according to the setting information input for limiting the continuous playback will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 4 based on the above-described configuration.

The control unit 180 downloads image content and related information according to the input information from the video-on-demand system 10 through the communication unit 110, and determines whether the downloaded image content corresponds to the input information, Or the like can be judged through the related information as described above.

4 (a), the related information includes metadata received separately from the image content, or identification information assigned to the image content. Referring to FIG. 4, As shown in (a), the metadata may basically include a unique number of video content for the downloaded video content corresponding to the input information, and ID information for the series corresponding to the video content, And may further include additional information such as time information of the image content, title, and playback time in the water.

Accordingly, the control unit 180 can determine whether the downloaded image content corresponds to the input information through the ID information of the series included in the metadata and whether the downloaded image content is a series or a series. When the downloaded image content is a series corresponding to the input information, a number (a number of times) of the downloaded image content corresponding to the input information among the plurality of image contents included in the series based on the unique number of the image content .

In addition, the identification information given to the image content may be a file name of the image content including the unique number of the image content and the ID information of the series corresponding to the image content, The user can identify whether the downloaded image content is a series and the series corresponding to the image content in correspondence with the input information in the same manner as the metadata through the file name of the image content, It is possible to determine the number of contents.

If the downloaded image content is a series corresponding to the input information, the controller 180 can automatically download one or more image contents corresponding to the next order without receiving additional input information, The content can be continuously played back successively.

At this time, in order to prevent a long-time viewing of a juvenile or a child with weak self-control, the controller 180 transmits setting information for limiting the number of continuously reproduced image contents to the user interface unit 120 .

For example, the control unit 180 may receive the setting information before the download of the image contents belonging to the series through the user interface unit 120, store the setting information in the setting unit 170, If the series is determined according to whether or not a series of image contents is determined, the environment setting interface is automatically loaded through the user interface unit 120, and the setting unit 170 receives the setting information according to user input on the environment setting interface ). ≪ / RTI >

Accordingly, the controller 180 may limit the number of image contents that can be continuously played back based on the setting information stored in the setting unit 170 when the downloaded image content is a series corresponding to the input information.

For example, as shown in FIG. 4 (b), when the number of continuously reproducible image contents (the number of continuously reproducible images) set by the setting information is set to 2, The controller 180 downloads only up to two times from the video-on-demand providing system 10 as shown in the figure according to the number of continuously reproducible video contents set in the setting information, The image content of the next round may not be downloaded. In addition, if the downloaded image contents are two times according to the input information, only the download of up to three times may be performed, and the subsequent images may not be downloaded. At this time, the input information includes input of selection information for the desired image content, as well as input of log information stored in accordance with the continuous playback.

Accordingly, the control unit 180 continuously reproduces only up to two video content, and when the reproduction of the video content corresponding to the second playback is terminated, the entire playback is terminated, thereby preventing long-time viewing.

On the other hand, even when a plurality of video contents grouped into a series is downloaded up to three or more times, the controller 180 can reproduce only up to two video contents according to the number of continuously reproducible video contents set in the setting information, It may be terminated.

As another example, as shown in FIG. 4 (c), the continuous reproduction time can be set by the setting information.

At this time, the controller 180 can identify the total reproduction time of each image content based on the additional information included in the meta data or the header information of the image content, It is possible to sequentially sum up the total reproduction time of the contents according to the reproduction order and continuously reproduce only up to the image contents corresponding to the previous reproduction time of the image contents corresponding to the time point exceeding the continuous reproduction time set in the setting information, have.

In other words, if the continuous playback time is set to 2 hours as shown in the figure, the controller 180 sums up the total playback time of each image content downloaded sequentially with the series to 130 minutes It is possible to continuously reproduce only up to two consecutive video contents corresponding to the previous three times of video contents and end the reproduction. Also, the control unit 180 may not download the image contents after the third round.

At this time, the controller 180 determines whether the sum of the total reproduction time of each video content grouped in series and sequentially summed in accordance with the reproduction order exceeds the continuous reproduction time, And when the difference between the time according to the continuous playback time and the continuous playback time is equal to or less than a preset value, the video content corresponding to the exceeding time point may be included in the continuous playback. In other words, even if the time obtained by adding the total playback time of each video content up to the third time exceeds the continuous playback time, if the difference between the sum of the total playback time and the continuous playback time is small, .

Accordingly, the controller 180 may limit the number of image contents that are continuously reproduced for a plurality of image contents grouped into the same series within a range that does not exceed the continuously reproducible time set in the setting information.

In addition, even if the continuous playback time is set by the setting information, the controller 180 does not terminate the playback during the playback of the video content, so that the adolescents or children with weak self- It is possible to solve the problem of accumulation and to prevent viewing for a long time.

According to the above-described configuration, it is possible to store the setting information in the setting information by agreeing with the parents about the degree of viewing with the preset information and the adolescents or children with weak self-control when continuously playing back a plurality of image contents included in the series, By limiting this, it is possible to effectively induce the adolescent or child to observe the promised degree of viewing.
