Description

METHOD OF DELIVERING MEDIA CONTENT TO A USER DEVICE
Field of the Invention
The invention relates to a method of delivering media content to a user device, and to a networked system configured to do the same. The invention has particular applicability with smartphones.
Background to the Invention
With the proliferation of content distribution methods in the context of telecommunication networks, various technologies have emerged and developed allowing relatively efficient means of delivering content to user devices. In particular, with rapid increases in mobile device processing power and data connectivity rates, audio and video content can now be relatively easily streamed or downloaded onto user devices, especially mobile devices such as smartphones.
In this context, a push notification consists of a protocol generally designed to 'push' a limited number of characters - text data - from a server to any registered user device. The text is displayed in a device notification centre where users must then initiate an interaction with the device in order to read or otherwise access the contents of the message. Push notification technologies have seen various improvements over recent years. One such development is the pushing of new types of content. For example, the function of the push notification on the Android platform has been markedly improved such that a smartphone device, on which an appropriate application is installed, can receive a pushed message comprising a picture or other image file.
Nonetheless, there remains a need in the art for improvements to ways in which push technology can be used, in order to deliver new and better user experiences in the field of media content delivery.
Summary of the Invention
In general terms, the invention relates to an improved method and system arranged to deliver media content from a remote server to a user device. A push notification is used to trigger an application on the user device, the application then arranging for the delivery of a media content item (or items) from the server to the device. Once delivered, the media content item is automatically played on the user device, without the need for user interaction.
In certain embodiments, the invention relates to a method in the field of mobile services and smart phone applications. It allows a user of a mobile device to receive audio and/or video content (such as voice notes or voice notifications) which are automatically played on the mobile device without requiring intervention from the user. The user may control or customise the type of media content that they desire to receive on their mobile device. For example, when subscribing to the service implementing the method described herein, the user may request to receive media content relating to or comprising updates on current affairs, the arts, horoscopes, sports, the entertainment industry, etc.
An application configured to run steps of the inventive method on the user device may operate in the 'background' whilst the user carries out other functions on their device. Thus, the user is not required to intervene in the process at any point, aside from the initial steps relating to registration or subscription to the service. Once the application is installed on the user device, the user is provided with the unprecedented possibility of automatically delivering media content from a remote server to their device, and having the media content automatically played on their device. The invention therefore provides for a new user experience in the way in which media content is delivered and consumed on user devices, especially smartphones.
In a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a method of delivering media content to a user device. The method comprises receiving at the user device a push notification. In response to receiving the push notification, an application on the user device is initiated. Using the initiated application, a media content item is delivered from a remote server to the user device. The media content item is then automatically played on the user device.
The media content item, or simply media item, may be any item of audio and/or video content suitably packaged for being delivered and consumed on a user device. For example, the media content item may comprise breaking news items, horoscopes, sports updates, music, sound effects, speeches, etc. In one particular embodiment, the media content comprises audio and/or video of contemporaneous events that may be delivered 'live' to subscribing mobile devices and automatically played on the user device without the need for user intervention. In general, the media content item may be contained in a single file, or may be contained in several files which are consecutively delivered to the mobile device using the method described herein.
The push notification, push message, or simply notification or alert, is preferably received via a wireless network (such as WiFi or 3G/4G mobile Internet), though in other embodiments the notification may be received through wired means.
A service-specific application is generally pre-stored and installed on the user device. Upon receiving the push notification, the notification may trigger or initiate the application, bringing it out of a dormant or idle state or mode. Thus, the application is generally running in the background so as to consume as few system resources as possible, and is 'awakened' upon receipt of the push notification.
Delivery of the media content item to the user device may comprise active streaming or fetching of the media content item from its remote storage. In addition, delivery of the media content item may comprise the user device requesting the media content item from the remote server. The initiated application may cause the user device to automatically (and without user interaction) request the media content item from the remote server. The notification may comprise data identifying the media content and any other details required for the application to successfully deliver the media content item to the user device. For example, the media content item may comprise meta data such as Media ID, Media Text Data, Media Date, Media Category & Type, Media Link & Format, or any other data pertaining to the specific media content item in question.
Automatically playing the media content on the user device preferably does not involve any user interaction. The media content may either be played, or otherwise consumed, on an appropriate media player stored on the user device, or else may be played without the intermediary of a media player (as in the case of the iOS platform described below in more detail). The media content item may be immediately or at least substantially immediately played following delivery of the media content item to the user device. If desired, the user may cause the automatic playing of the media content item to be stopped, for example by pressing a user input key of the device or shaking the device.
The inventive method allows for a user to subscribe to a media content delivery service, the service then providing means to deliver specific items of media content to the user's device and subsequently cause the delivered media content item(s) to be automatically played on the user device. Advantageously, no user intervention of any kind is required from receipt of the push notification to playing of the delivered media content item. Prior art push notification services generally require a minimum of interaction from the user in order to ascertain the contents of the delivered media content. For example, a pushed text message must be actively opened by the user in order for the user to read the contents, and similarly a pushed image file must also be opened to either download it or, if already downloaded onto the device, to be viewed by the user.
Delivering the media content item may comprise streaming the media content from the remote server. In this implementation, the application on the user device is configured, using data from the received pushed notification, to request the media content item available on the remote server. The user device may make the request via another server or network component, which in turn is responsible for fetching or otherwise obtaining the media content item from the remote server for streaming on the user device. Alternatively, the media content item may be streamed directly from the remote server to the user device, without having to exchange data via the intermediary of other servers or network components.
Advantageously, the media content item does not need to be sent together with the push notification as with some prior art methods. Therefore, the storage capacity of the user device is not adversely affected as the media content item can be delivered directly from the media server without having to store the media content item on the user device.
Delivering the media content item may comprise downloading the media content item from the remote server onto the user device. In this particular embodiment, instead of streaming the media content item, the media content item may instead be downloaded onto the user device. The push notification may contain information identifying the specific media content item to be downloaded, and the application may request from the remote server the specific media content item for download, using the data contained in the push notification. This implementation of the delivery of the media content item has particular use in the case where the user device is configured to operate an iOS platform. Completion of the download of the media content item may be detected by the application, which may then cause the downloaded media content item to be played automatically on the user device. The method may further comprise detecting a further push notification at the user device once the media content item is downloaded onto the user device. The further push notification may be received at the user device, for example from the remote server. The further push notification may be requested from the remote server by the mobile device, once the media content item is downloaded onto the user device. Alternatively, the further push notification may be generated at the user device. For example, the further push notification may be a Local Push Notification as known in the art, generated by the application. The further push notification may be generated in parallel to the automatic playing of the downloaded media content.
The Local Push Notification may comprise text data obtained from the downloaded media content item. For example, in addition to audio and/or video content, the downloaded media content item may comprise text data which may be displayed on the user device via the Local Push Notification. Thus, the application may obtain or fetch the text data from the downloaded media content item and cause it to be displayed as text in a Local Push Notification generated at the user device. This may be useful if the user has muted their user device, in which case without the Local Push Notification the user would not be made aware of the automatic playing of the media content item.
In addition, the user device may be configured to automatically play audio upon detection of a push notification, and the method may further comprise reconfiguring the user device such that the downloaded media content item is automatically played upon detection of a push notification (and in particular the further push notification mentioned above). The further push notification may be a push notification that is received at the user device (for example from the remote server) or else a push notification that is generated at the user device.
Apple's operating system, iOS, can cause problems when attempting to configure the application stored on the user device to automatically play delivered media content. In order to circumvent this problem, once the first push notification is received at the user device, an application may be initiated/triggered (as described above) and used to request the download of the media content item from the remote server. Details of the specific media item or content to be downloaded may be contained in the first push notification. Audio notifications are often played to a user on their device to alert them to the arrival of a new notification. Thus, once the media content item is downloaded onto the user device, the push notification settings may be automatically reconfigured such that the downloaded media content item is played upon receipt of a push notification.
Subsequent to the download and the reconfiguration of the push notification settings, the application may trigger or initiate the sending of a further push notification to the user device (e.g. from the remote server). Upon receipt of this further push notification at the user device, the downloaded media content item is played as per the reconfigured settings. This workaround allows the downloaded media content item (and in particular audio content or files) to automatically be played following their downloading onto the user device.
Alternatively, instead of reconfiguring the push notification settings, the application may instead detect completion of the download of the media content item. The application may then trigger a local notification to be generated at the user device. The generation of the local notification may be detected by the application which may then automatically play the downloaded media content on the user device.
Thus, even with an iOS platform running for example on an Apple iPhone, the invention allows media content to automatically be played or run in response to a push notification received at the user device.
The user device may be configured to operate an Android platform. Advantageously, software development kits developed by Google generally do not pose any impediment to the automatic playing on a user device of delivered media content, in response to receipt of a push notification. Therefore, the above workaround is generally not required.
The method may further comprise receiving an event notification at a content management server. The method may further comprise sending the push notification from the content management server to the user device in response to receiving the event notification at the content management server. In one embodiment, media content providers may alert or notify a content management system when new media content is ready for distribution (for example when a new item or new items of media content are ready for distribution). For example, a media content provider such as a news station may send an event notification to the content management system or server. A customer service agent operating at the content management system may then prepare a suitable notification or message which is then pushed to all relevant subscribers. The relevant subscribers in this case would be those users that have registered their interest in receiving news- related items.
In a second aspect of the invention, there is provided a system for delivering media content to a user device. The system comprises a user device having an application stored thereon. The system further comprises a content management server configured to send one or more push notifications to the user device. The system further comprises a media content server comprising one or more media content items stored thereon. The user device is configured, in response to receiving a push notification from the content management server, to initiate and use the application to deliver at least one of the media content items from the media content server to the user device. The user device is further configured to automatically run the delivered at least one media content item on the user device. The networked system is therefore configured to implement the various steps of the above-described methods.
in addition, the various methods described above may be implemented by a computer program. The computer program may include computer code arranged to instruct a computer to perform the functions of one or more of the various methods described above. The computer program and/or the code for performing such methods may be provided to an apparatus, such as a computer, on a computer- readable medium or computer program product. The computer readable may be a transitory or a non-transitory computer readable medium. For example, the computer readable medium could be an electronic, magnetic, optical, electromagnetic, infrared, or semiconductor system, or a propagation medium for data transmission, for example for downloading the code over the Internet. Alternatively, the computer-readable medium could take the form of a physical computer-readable medium such as semiconductor or solid state memory, magnetic tape, a removable computer diskette, a random access memory (RAM), a read-only memory (ROM), a rigid magnetic disc, and an optical disk, such as a CD-ROM, CD- R W or DVD.
An apparatus such as a computer may be configured in accordance with such code to perform one or more processes in accordance with the various methods discussed herein. Such an apparatus may take the form of a data processing system. Such a data processing system may be a distributed system. For example, this data processing system may be distributed across a network.

Detailed Description of a Specific Embodiment
The present invention seeks to provide an improved method of delivering media content to a user device. Whilst various embodiments of the invention are described below, the invention is not limited to these embodiments, and variations of these embodiments may well fall within the scope of the invention which is to be limited only by the appended claims.
In accordance with a particular embodiment of the invention, Figure 1 shows a networked system 100 configured to implement the media content delivery method described herein. System 100 comprises mobile device 150, push notification server 140, content management server 130 and media content server 60. As illustrated by the clouds, these system components are arranged to communicate with one another using wireless means as known in the art. For example, the components may communicate over the Internet / internal connections via HTTP/HTTPS protocols.
Content management server 130 is configured to prepare and send notifications to mobile device 150 via push notification server 140. A notification is sent from content management server 130 to push notification server 140 via network 135. Once received at push notification server 140, push notification server 140 packages the notification as a push notification and sends the push notification to mobile device 150 via Google / Apple push platform network 145. Content management server 130 may be accessed via a web user interface allowing an agent / customer care team to compose and send the messages/notifications along with the required content.
Media content server 160 may communicate with mobile device 150 via network 155. Mobile device 150 may request the downloading of media content items from media content server 160, or alternatively may request the streaming of media content items from media content server 160.
Also shown in Figure 1 is a group of mobile devices 110 arranged to communicate with so-called application stores 120 and 125. In the present embodiment application store 120 is the App Store controlled and managed by Apple Inc. and application store 125 is Google Play controlled and managed by Google Inc. Depending on the operating system they are configured with, mobile devices 110 may access and download various applications from either of applications stores 20 and 125 via network 115 (for example the Internet).
Now turning to Figure 2, there is shown a sequence of steps taken by the components of networked system 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. It should be noted that Figure 2 shows an example method, and the order of the steps may be changed without departing from the scope of the invention. The method may also comprise a fewer or greater number of steps.
At step 200, a user of a mobile device 110 installs an application from application store 120 or 125. As described above, if mobile device 110 is operating an iOS platform then the application is downloaded from application store 120, whilst if mobile device 110 is operating an Android platform then the application is downloaded from application store 125. Of course, in other embodiments the application may be downloaded from other application stores. In some embodiments the application may be pre-stored on the user device, and for example may have been transferred to the user device via a mass storage device. Once the application is downloaded onto mobile device 110, the application is installed as known in the art.
At step 205, the user accesses the installed application and registers with the media delivery service by communicating with content management server 130, and by providing their mobile number and entering a personal identification number (PIN). Other personal details of the user may be requested of the user in order to complete the registration process. In addition, in order to benefit from the service the user may be required to pay a subscription fee (step 210), in which case the user may be prompted to enter payment details in order to effect payment. In some embodiments the service may be provided free-of-charge for a limited trial period, in which case the user would not have to provide payment until expiry of the trial period.
Also at step 210, the user may communicate with content management server 130 and provide details of the type of media content the user would prefer to receive at their mobile device. For example, the user may sign up to sports and film content, in which case media content items pertaining to sports and films will be delivered to the user's mobile device, as will be described in more detail below. More generally the user is provided with the ability to personalise and customise the type and/or number of media content items they wish to receive at their device. The user may also be provided with other customisable options, such as the maximum frequency at which media content items are delivered to their device, the maximum size of media content items delivered to their device, the language of any news items to be received at their device, etc.
The steps taken in the delivery of media content to user device 150 will now be described. At step 215, content management server 130 receives an event notification advising that a new media content item is available from media content server 160. The event notification may be sent from media content server 160 to content management server 130, or else may be received at content management server 130 via other means or from another source.
Once the event notification is received at content management server 130, content management server 130 determines the eligibility of users subscribed to the service (step 220). This may be done by determining the type of media the media content item belongs to, and identifying subscribers that have indicated their interest (at step 210) in such types of media content items. Subscribers that are deemed ineligible are filtered out. If a subscriber is deemed eligible, then at step 225 a notification is sent to mobile device 150. The notification comprises data identifying the media content item that is ready for delivery.
At step 225, the notification is sent from content management server 130 to push server 140. Content management server 130 is configured to manage which push server 140 the notification is to be sent to, based on the registration details provided by the user to content management server 130 when registering with the service. Push server 140 is configured to send the notification separately to Apple/Google registered users via the relevant push server platform managed by Apple/Google. Push server 140 then sends the notification as a push notification to mobile device 150.
Upon receipt of the push notification at mobile device 50, at step 230 the installed application is initiated. The application does not need to be actively running on mobile device 150 but instead may be dormant such that it is consuming as few system resources as possible, whilst still able to detect receipt of the push notification at mobile device 150.
If mobile device 150 is operating an Android platform, then at step 235 the application causes mobile device 150 to request the media content item from media content server 160 for streaming. The application uses data contained in the push notification to identify the media content item that is to be streamed so that the appropriate request can be sent from mobile device 150 to media content server 160 so as to retrieve the correct media content item for streaming. Once media content receives the request and identifies the requested media content item, the requested media content item is streamed on user device 150 from media content server 160.
At step 240, the streaming media content item is automatically run or executed on a media player of mobile device 150. For example, if the media content item is video then the media content item is played back on a video player of mobile device 150, whilst if the media content item is audio then the media content item is played back on an audio player of mobile device 150. The video and audio players may form part of the same player.
Returning to step 230, let us consider the case where mobile device 150 is operating an iOS platform. SDKs developed by Apple generally do not allow a push notification to cause an application to initiate streaming of the media content item, upon receipt of a push notification at the mobile device. Thus, following initiation of the application at step 230, at step 250 the application causes mobile device 150 to request downloading of the media content item from media content server 160. The particular media content item to be downloaded is identified in data in the push notification, and the application uses this data in the request to enable media content server 160 to locate the relevant media content item. The media content item is then downloaded from media content server 160 into a non-volatile memory of mobile device 150. Traditional Apple push notification settings can be configured to allow a particular audio file to be played upon receipt of a push notification. Such audio warnings alert the user to the arrival of a push notification. In the present embodiment, the push notification settings of mobile device 150 are preferably configured such that no sound is played upon receipt of push notifications at mobile device 150. At step 255, the application detects completion of the download and causes the push notification settings of mobile device 150 to be reconfigured such that the downloaded media content item (and in particular the audio associated with the downloaded media content item) is to be played upon receipt of push notifications. Mobile device 150 then requests from content management server 130 a further notification to be sent to mobile device 150. The further notification is sent from content management server 130 to mobile device 150. As before, the notification is routed through push server 140 where it is then pushed to mobile device 150 as a push notification. At step 260 the push notification is detected by mobile device 150. The process returns to step 240 where the audio from the downloaded media content item is automatically played due to the reconfigured push notification settings.
Alternatively, if the iOS platform is programmed so as not to allow the reconfiguration of the push notification settings, then following completion of the download of the media content item (step 250) the process may move to step 265 where the application causes a Local Push Notification to be generated at mobile device 50. Returning to step 260, the Local Push Notification is detected at mobile device 150 by the application. The application then causes the downloaded media item to be played on mobile device 150.
In order to conserve memory on mobile device 150, downloaded media content files may be automatically deleted after a predetermined amount of time. In addition, after the receipt of each further push notification, the push notification settings may be reset such that no audio is played upon receipt of a push notification.
No user interaction is required from step 215 onwards. In particular, the generation and sending of a push notification to mobile device 150 through to the automatic playback of the delivered media content item is carried out automatically such that the user is not aware of the process until playback of the media content item. Whilst the invention has been described in connection with specific embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to these embodiments, and that alterations, modifications, and variations of these embodiments may be carried out by the skilled person without departing from the scope of the invention.
