Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of multimedia applications used in an audiovisual context, and more particularly the methods of searching for audiovisual programs and content in a broadcast stream, by means of electronic program guides for example. It also relates to the search for multimedia data on dedicated Internet type servers, also called program databases and the combination of these two types of search.
- the prior art does not allow a sufficiently selective sorting when the program offer is varied and large.
- the themes are fixed, which allows only a small personalization of the search.
- An object of the present invention is the implementation of a method making it possible to:
- Another object of the present invention is the implementation of a method allowing the selection of audiovisual content meeting precise criteria with the following functionalities:
- Level 2 ee abstracts, reviews, records, or trailers accessible by connected link or broadcast.
- EIT Event Information Table
- a criterion program search consisting of a combination of all or part of the search arguments such as keywords, research topics, television channel, day, time slot.
- these EITs may be disseminated by the Information Service
- the keyword search mode is coupled with a multi-criteria search by theme, channel, day, and time slot.
- the method, object of the present invention is remarkable in that it consists in combining a search by keyword in the various fields of the event tables broadcast in the flow of audiovisual program with a search by criteria of program guides of the Theme, Channel, Day, Time slot type, the values of which are defined in the said event tables, to access textual contents of a database accessible via a interactive link.
- the invention is applied to the search for programs or audiovisual content associated with these programs, in a database formed locally from signaling information of the broadcast stream and allowing access to additional multimedia content.
- the invention is integrated in particular into a program guide type service and makes it possible to enrich it with additional multimedia content.
- the method which is the subject of the invention is also remarkable in that, since complementary data is associated with the events contained in the event table, it consists in extending the search field of the search argument by keywords to the complementary data to each event.
- the method which is the subject of the present invention is also remarkable in that for a database comprising multimedia content, the multimedia content associated with an event is linked to the selected event by a link of the URL type stored in an event table. , which allows direct access to associated multimedia content via the event tables.
- the invention will be better understood from reading the detailed description of a nonlimiting example relating to the search for audiovisual content (broadcast programs and additional data, ie audiovisual content previously stored), and from the observation of the drawings.
- FIG. 1 shows a network architecture illustrating the context of implementation of the method of searching for programs or audiovisual content on an audiovisual stream comprising event tables distributed by a database, in accordance with the object of the present invention

- FIG. 5 shows, by way of illustration, a program search screen page based on a search criterion consisting of a research theme argument such as thematic subject;
- FIG. 6 shows, by way of illustration, a program search screen page based on a search criterion consisting of a selected day argument
- FIG. 7 represents, by way of illustration, a screen page for searching for a program on the basis of a search criterion consisting of a selected hour argument;
- FIG. 8 represents, by way of illustration, a screen page for the presentation and display of images relating to at least one program selected and obtained from the process which is the subject of the present invention, this display being preferably carried out not restrictive in the form of a drop-down banner for the user.
- a program database 2 is constituted on a server 1.
- the server can be local or remote.
- the database 2 is constituted on a server 1.
- the server can be local or remote.
- Information Table of the Information System (SI) present in the broadcast stream 4 DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting), is created and stored in terminal 3 (cache mode), in order to be able to access information more quickly.
- the EIT tables are broadcast cyclically in the broadcast stream signal 4 as represented by a step 6 with reference to FIG. 2.
- a step 7 acquires the EIT tables of the information system SI.
- a sorting by event name is carried out in different fields of the EIT tables acquired in step 7. This makes it possible, in a step 9, to store a table indexed by name of services. Step 9 is completed in step 6 so as to regularly repeat steps 7 to 9 to keep the content of the table up to date according to (distribution in step 6.
- a set of requests is sent to the program database 2 accessible by the server 3, in order to determine, for each event, the possible existence of additional data of type: - an image,
- a step 10 requests are sent to the server 3 for determining the multimedia content referenced by the program names corresponding to the service names of the table stored in step 9.
- links are then made, in the form of URLs for Universal Resource Locator, between the table of events stored and the address of this additional data in the server.
- step 11 addresses of the contents associated with the program names are returned in the form of URLs.
- step 12 the table is updated by associating the event names, the URLs and the corresponding content type.
- a step 13 the table is stored in the terminal 3.
- a device 14 for transmitting an audiovisual stream on a broadcast channel and a device 15 for exchanging data on an interactive channel.
- a multiplexer 16 receives as input several audiovisual streams coming from broadcast applications and television programs.
- a QPSK modulator 17 receives as input a DVB broadcast stream, possibly MPEG2, generated at the output of the multiplexer 16.
- An SI manager 18 accesses the multiplexer 16 by means of an ethernet link.
- the modulator 17 is provided for broadcasting a BIS signal so as to carry out step 6.
- the equipment 15 includes the server 1 and the database and the database 2.
- a file depositing device 20 makes it possible to introduce additional content into the database 2.
- the terminal 3 includes a WEB browser 21, a DVB / MHP receiver 22 and a TCP / IP interface 23.
- the browser 21 accesses the receiver 22 and the interface 23 bidirectionally.
- the interface 23 makes it possible to carry out Internet type connections with the server 1 on an interactive link, so as to carry out steps 10 to 13.
- a screen proposes the entry of the following criteria:
- Each of the criteria is optional.
- One or more choices can be selected for each criterion (eg several days in the week).
- Entering one or more keywords is offered using an infrared keyboard, with or without entering the other criteria.
- the first focus is on the keyword entry area.
- the concept of focus covers any specific display variant of an active or activated selection area of the screen page.
- the validation of one of the criteria triggers the updating of the list of possible values for this criterion. Navigation in this list is done by the up and down arrows.
- the corresponding screen page is represented in FIG. 4.
- the set of channels received by the user's terminal is presented. Several channels can be selected. A focus is placed on each chosen channel name:
- the choices offered are: daily (7 days), today, tomorrow and Monday to Sunday.
- a focus is positioned on each chosen day: jOKj on remote control to remove the focus, again (OKj to reposition it.
- time slots can be selected. A focus is placed on each time slot chosen:
- the research can be launched at any stage of defining the criteria; the criteria taken into account will be those chosen by the user or the default values for the criteria not entered.
- the terminal 3 analyzes all the textual data stored in the table obtained in step 12, with the associated URLs. The terminal 3 then displays an event corresponding to an event whose presence is verified by the analysis that the terminal 3 performs. Result of the research
- the search result is presented in the form of a list of thumbnails (first level textual information on programs and thumbnails).
- the list of thumbnails can be displayed in the form of a scrolling banner.
- This non-limiting preferential display mode allows the user to perform a priori control and a selection of the search results by scrolling command of the images or thumbnails, on the initiative of this user.
- French patent application FR0011407 filed on September 7, 2000 The presentation on the screen indicates the program or programs selected.
- a client system provides access to additional information relating to the selected program. By action on the remote control you can view:
- the corresponding request to the server uses the URL stored with the selected event.
- the method according to the invention and the system which implements it, provides rapid access to additional information such as images, trailer, film reviews or the like, including the access URL in the database 2 , is known to terminal 3 thanks to the memorized table which associates this URL with an event of an audiovisual program specified by the user.
- the invention therefore offers a richer television alternative than a traditional paper TV guide and more efficient than a conventional electronic guide.
- the EIT tables provide the list of events (broadcasts) relating to each service of the current multiplex (EIT Actual transport stream) or of the other multiplexes (EIT Other transport stream), and the characteristics of each of these events (start and duration of the broadcast , list of descriptors associated with the event). Events are identified by the Original_Network_id / Transport_StreamJd / ServiceJd / EventJd quadruplet of identifiers. EITs are of two types: - present / following EITs provide information on the current event and the next event, - EIT schedules are used to describe the future events of a service in a range of up to 64 days. The presence of EIT present / following Actual transport stream is mandatory in each multiplex.
