Abstract
Description
技术领域
本发明涉及点播媒体传递系统，具体涉及这样的点播媒体传递系统，该点播媒体传递系统有提供系统增强的用户有关存储器。
背景技术
在一些已知的点播电视系统中，可以利用机顶盒从电缆系统头端接收点播电视。这种机顶盒可以传送或传递电视和/或其他功能到电视机，VCR，或其他的本地装置。这些系统在允许用户再定位他们的点播电视服务到不同位置方面有缺陷。这些系统在提供合适的再定位技术方面也有缺陷，在允许用户上载和接入他们的个人视像，图形，图像，或照片方面也有缺陷，以及在允许用户分享媒体方面也有缺陷。
人们已开发了利用硬盘技术或其他记录技术用于本地存储电视节目的系统。在Hassell等人于1998年9月17日申请的美国专利申请No.09/157,256中描述硬盘系统的例子，全文合并在此供参考。TiVo，Inc.of Sunnyvale，California，和Replay Networks，Inc.ofMountainview，California也开发了硬盘基产品。这些系统在满足用户需求方面有缺陷。例如，这些系统不允许用户利用连续接入的记录材料再定位到其他的家庭。
人们还开发了包括从用户的机顶盒到电缆系统头端的返回通路的电视平台。例如，人们开发了客户机-服务器基节目制导，其中机顶盒是具有电缆系统头端的客户机-服务器装置。这些装置允许电缆系统头端与机顶盒之间的双向通信。响应于从机顶盒产生的请求，这些服务器通常给机顶盒提供节目清单信息(例如，节目标题和广播时间)。人们还开发了客户机-服务器电视节目制导，其中节目和设定可以记录到远程服务器上。这些已知的系统有各种缺陷。例如，这些系统中的服务器(电缆系统头端处的服务器)在提供充分移动性特征方面一直存在缺陷。
发明内容
按照本发明的原理，提供点播媒体传递的系统和方法，用于远程存储用户的个人媒体，分享存储的媒体，和再定位点播媒体服务的特征。基于在点播媒体传递服务器上存储用户有关的信息，可以提供这种特征和功能。提供这种特征与与系统交互作用的设备类型(例如，机顶盒，个人计算机，等等)无关。
该系统可以有再定位特征，可以允许用户在一个用户设备上冻结点播媒体的传递，而从另一个用户设备上恢复传递和观看(例如，在家庭的用户设备上，该家庭不同于用户冻结传递之前该用户观看点播媒体传递内容的家庭)。当用户选取冻结媒体内容的传递时，实况展示的点播媒体内容可以为用户进行远程记录。

图7A表示再定位特征确认显示屏700实例。当选取图3中远程控制装置300的命令或当选取点播媒体显示屏上合适选项以指出用户希望冻结节目时，可以显示显示屏700。若用户希望确认冻结请求，则可以选取选项710。若用户不希望确认冻结请求，则可以选取选项720。如果需要，用户可以冻结VOD节目，只要从远程控制装置或从以前屏幕菜单上选取再定位特征。若用户以前没有注册或没有被识别，则在作出冻结请求时，可能要求用户注册或提供标识信息。
图7B表示再定位显示屏730实例，当选取图3中远程控制装置300的命令或当选取点播媒体显示屏上的合适选项以恢复用户以前冻结的点播媒体时，可以显示再定位显示屏730。若用户希望在不同于冻结媒体的用户设备上(例如，不同的家庭，不同的用户现场，不同的房间，不同的设备平台，等等)观看从冻结点开始的媒体，则可以选取选项740。
当用户选取continue选项740时，可以在当前的用户设备上从冻结点开始展示点播媒体。如果需要，当以前选取冻结(或再定位)选项的用户注册系统时，点播媒体可以排队到给用户展示的冻结点。此外，如果需要，在用户请求之后(例如，用户选取从冻结点恢复的选项)，可以有选择地排队点播媒体。若用户以前没有注册或没有被识别，则在作出恢复请求时，要求用户进行注册或提供识别信息。系统还允许用户从多个节目中进行选取，这些节目以前被该用户冻结过。
当用户首先选取再定位特征时，图1的远程服务器网络110可以暂停该用户正在观看的点播媒体内容，并存储内容位置基准到正确的用户专用帐户。在用户交换到不同的位置并请求正确传递暂停的内容之后，远程服务器网络110可以检索正确的内容位置基准并从用户暂停内容的点开始继续传递媒体内容。在可以传递媒体内容之前，远程服务器网络可以要求识别该用户，因此，可以定位和接入正确的用户专用数据和/或用户专用帐户信息。
用户专用数据或帐户信息可以存储在该用户专用的远程服务器网络110(图1)的部分。远程服务器网络110(图1)可以是配置成存储这种信息和数据的VOD服务器。还可以利用远程服务器网络110(图1)上的帐户存储该用户的个人图像或视像。远程服务器网络110(图1)可以允许用户从他们自己的家或从其他位置处的用户设备接入他们的个人图像或视像。
图7C是再定位过程760的流程图实例，过程760表示在选取再定位特征时如何存储和接入数据。再定位过程760是从启动步骤761开始，它可以几乎包括任何与媒体传递系统的交互作用，导致给用户展示再定位特征。例如，启动步骤761可以是启动图7A中再定位显示屏700的用户交互作用。在步骤762，可以给用户提供选取或确认再定位特征的机会。
如果需要，步骤762可以包括用于识别当前用户的步骤771(例如，识别第一个用户设备上的当前用户)。用户识别步骤771可以给用户提供注册点播媒体系统的能力，它可以包括提示用户给出标识符和/或口令。例如，响应于用户选取再定位特征，可以完成步骤771。
如果需要，步骤771可以是启动步骤761中的一部分，允许系统在用户选取再定位特征之前识别当前用户。
当用户选取再定位特征时，点播媒体系统可以保存用户的当前位置(步骤763)。保存当前位置可以涉及，例如，保存识别媒体内容在何处被再定位特征‘冻结’或暂停的指针。若用户在步骤771被识别，则过程760可以在与用户相关的存储空间存储任何与再定位特征操作有关的数据。如果需要，保存当前位置可以涉及从选取再定位特征的点开始记录媒体内容。在步骤764，过程760可以在用户选取恢复接收之前输入空闲模式。步骤764可以包括识别当前用户(在第二个用户设备上识别当前用户)的步骤772。当用户利用再定位特征选取恢复媒体时，可以完成步骤772。在步骤772，系统可以给当前用户提供注册点播媒体系统的能力，它可以包括提示用户给出标识符和/或口令。如果需要，在当前用户利用再定位特征恢复媒体时，可以完成步骤772。
在步骤765，可以检索最初选取再定位特征时观看的媒体内容位置。若用户在步骤772被识别，则从与当前用户相关的存储空间可以检索与再定位特征操作有关的数据。
若指针被存储，则系统可以利用指针找到点播媒体传递系统中内容的正确位置，并继续播放从该点开始的媒体(步骤765)。如果需要，可以从选取再定位特征的点开始远程记录媒体。在这种实施例中，系统只要从记录内容的点开始播放该内容。在成功地检索和恢复内容之后，可以产生结束步骤766，步骤766标志过程760的终止。
图8表示再定位过程880的实例，过程880类似于过程760，但包括观察实况内容时再定位的可能性。步骤881，882，891，886，892，和888分别与图7C中的步骤761，762，771，764，772，和776基本相同。在实况播送检查步骤883，系统可以确定当前媒体是否为实况播送。若媒体不是实况播送，则进行到步骤885，它涉及存储媒体的当前位置。若媒体是实况播送，则在步骤884可以远程记录媒体。在发生步骤884之后，在步骤885可以存储媒体的位置。如果需要，可以利用指针的形式存储媒体的位置。在步骤886进行中，系统可以处在空闲状态，等待用户指出该用户已再定位到新的用户设备。如果需要，过程880可以包括过程880所示特定点处的步骤891和892，和/或以上结合图7C中步骤771和772所讨论的，用于识别第一个用户设备处的当前用户和用户再定位到第二个用户设备时第二个用户设备处的当前用户。在用户再定位之后，在步骤887，系统可以确定存储的媒体位置，检索存储的媒体位置，然后，从存储的媒体位置开始继续播放媒体。一旦播放开始，到达结束步骤888，用户被成功地再定位。
远程点播媒体服务器可以配置成存储和传递用户专用媒体(例如，图片，摄像机记录，等等)，或用户上载的数据或媒体。利用各种方法可以对接入这种数据或媒体进行控制。
图9表示远程服务器的数据和媒体接入过程900的实例。在步骤901，可以接收来自点播媒体系统的静态请求或与用户设备相关用户的人工请求。这种请求可以与媒体内容或用户专用数据的检索相联系。
为了检索媒体内容，可以接入图1中的服务器180。在步骤902，响应于用户专用数据的请求，可以检查图1的网络拓扑100中的合适装置，用于确定是否需要任何类型的授权以接入被请求的数据。在步骤903，响应于媒体内容的请求，系统可以检查图1的网络拓扑100中的合适装置，用于确定是否需要任何类型的授权以接入被请求的媒体内容。
若接入数据或媒体不需要任何类型的授权，则可以检索该数据或媒体，并在步骤907和908可以给用户提供接入数据或媒体的机会。不要求接入特权的数据或媒体可以包括：例如，用户确定为公用的数据或媒体。
若需要授权，则在步骤904或步骤905，可以发送请求以确定用户是否有接入所需数据或媒体的许可。步骤904和步骤905可以包括：询问用户的帐户标识和/或口令。在步骤906，当用户没有接入所需数据或媒体的接入权利时，可以拒绝用户接入。若用户有接入所需数据或媒体的许可，则在步骤907，可以允许用户接入数据，或在步骤908，可以允许用户接入媒体。
如果需要，步骤902和903可以组合。如果需要，步骤904和905可以组合。如果需要，步骤907和908也可以组合。
如上所述，在利用远程存储和远程接入的能力方面，点播媒体系统实现许多唯一特征。结合远程存储的用户概况或远程存储的用户帐户，可以实现这种唯一特征中的一些特征。
点播媒体传递系统可以有一个用户的帐户或一组用户(例如，家庭)的帐户，该帐户可用于存储与帐户相关用户的用户概况。用户概况可以起控制数据结构的作用，通过数据结构可以接入，存储，和检索用户专用数据和点播媒体内容和数据。
图1中的远程服务器网络110可以进行划分和格式化，以便包括任何用户或用户组的用户帐户，其中可以存储，操作，和接入帐户专用数据和点播媒体内容。
图10表示概况显示屏1000的实例，显示屏1000可以包括用户识别信息1005，指出何人正在被系统识别。若新用户希望注册，则可以选取新注册选项1031，并可以启动诸如图6B中显示屏650的注册显示屏。若用户需要的选项没有出现在显示屏1010上，则可以选取更多的选项按钮1032。
区域1010包含若干个不同的用户可选择选项，例如，图示的优先选项。当用户注册到系统之后，这些选项可以允许用户接入或利用本地存储或远程存储的数据或媒体。
图11表示帐户管理显示屏1150的实例，在选取图10的帐户管理选项1034时，可以显示帐户管理显示屏1150。帐户信息1151可以显示在显示屏1150上，指出哪个用户正在被识别和识别该用户的管理位置。管理位置窗口1160可以位于显示屏1150上，并可以包含被识别用户帐户之下的用户或用户组清单。被识别用户可以通过管理控制1170改变窗口1160中用户或用户组的性质。首先，从窗口1160中选取用户或用户组(例如，当高亮窗口位于用户或用户组之上时，按下数据输入键)，其次，使光标或高亮窗口放置在管理控制1170中一个选项上面以便采取所需的动作，用户就可以改变用户或用户组的性质。可以包括在管理控制1170中的控制例子包括：例如，添加新用户组，添加新用户，约束用户组，约束用户，限制用户组，限制用户，删除用户组，删除用户，建立用户的新帐户，建立用户组的新帐户。
在诸如VOD服务器的远程服务器中，存储诸如用户的优先项(例如，总体优先，点播媒体优先，等等)的用户专用数据，就可以允许个人自动配置特征，听从用户从设备到设备的移动。在用户被系统识别(例如，被远程服务器网络识别)之后，这种特征可以使优先项被用户设备检索和执行。在自动配置特征中可以使用的一些优先项和用户专用信息类别可以包括：例如，音量设定，喜爱频道，备忘录，用户记录的点播媒体内容信息，用户的最近活动，自动记录次数，以及任何其他的优先或活动。例如，在用户被远程服务器网络识别之后，用户设备可以有选择地或自动地配置成配合或使用一些或全部用户远程存储的优先项。
图12表示自动配置显示屏1200的实例，在用户经注册显示屏(例如，图6B中显示屏650)注册之后，可以启动自动配置显示屏1200。显示屏1200可以允许用户选取用户设备为自动配置。用户设备可以是该用户正在使用的用户设备。通过下载用户有关数据和信息并处理用户设备上的数据和信息以适合当前用户，就可以自动配置用户设备。
信息区1210可以出现在显示屏1200上，并可以包含用户概况的数据或与用户注册有关的数据。配置选项1220可以包括在显示屏1200上。在选取一个选项1220时，可以接入用户概况中存储的信息以完成若干项活动。配置选项1220中显示的选项可以随信息类型而变化，这些信息类型存储在特定用户的概况中。配置选项1220的例子可以包括：例如，自动配置选项，最近活动选项，喜爱演出选项，最近演出选项，和喜爱活动选项。
每当用户注册到系统时，用户可以选取总是自动配置选项1211，利用用户的个人信息自动地配置用户设备。当用户以前没有选取总是自动配置选项1211时，可以显示自动配置选项1212。可以选取自动配置选项1212，以便自动配置正在使用的用户设备。在用户注销并不再被用户设备识别之后的用户设备设定，可以删除或复位用户设备设定。
图13表示自动配置用户设备中可能涉及的过程1350的实例。过程1350可以在启动步骤1351开始，例如，在激活点播媒体传递系统时开始。在步骤1352，可以允许用户注册到系统。在步骤1353，可以验证用户的注册信息。在步骤1354，若输入的注册信息无效，则系统可以检查注册用户的帐户，是否指出选取总是自动配置特征。若该帐户指出选取总是自动配置特征，则在步骤1358，注册到系统的用户设备可以自动配置成具有该用户的优先信息。
在步骤1358，可以检索自动配置优先项和信息，并下载到正在使用的用户设备，用户设备可以基于优先项和信息进行配置。
若没有选取总是自动配置选项，则在步骤1355的当前注册时，可以给用户提供一个使正在使用的用户设备为自动配置的机会。在当前注册期间，当用户选取自动配置选项时，可以完成步骤1358。在结束步骤1359，可以允许用户恢复其他的活动。在这个方法中，一些或全部的用户概况或优先项可以存储在远程服务器。
点播媒体传递系统还可以包含上载特征。图14A表示上载文件显示屏1400的实例，为了上载文件可以启动上载文件显示屏1400。如果需要，上载特征可以包括用于上载装置的自动扫描用户设备的过程。在有不同文件源的情况下，上载装置按钮1420可以显示在显示屏1400上。例如，显示屏1400可以包括：VCR上载按钮1411，计算机上载按钮1412，和DVD播放机上载按钮1413。可以允许用户从按钮1420中选取一个按钮，用于从与该按钮相关的装置上载数据。
上载特征还可以包括：互联网地址输入框1410。用户可以在输入框1410中键入或选取文件地址。基于文件地址，点播媒体系统可以搜索文件的互联网并可以上载该文件。当找到文件时，用户可以实际选取任何上载的文件，并使该文件存储到点播媒体系统的远程服务器。
上载到远程服务器(例如，VOD服务器)的文件还可以下载到用户设备以便给用户展示。文件可以从一个用户设备通过点播媒体远程服务器转移到不同的用户设备系统。文件可以包括几乎任何类型的数据，节目，或内容。可以上载的文件例子包括：例如，图片，电影，歌曲，电视游戏，文档，电子邮件，和互联网Web页。诸如图片，电影，歌曲，电视游戏，或其他视听材料的文件可能有特别的兴趣，因为点播媒体服务器特别适合于给用户传递和展示视听材料。
图14B中描述的过程1450表示典型的步骤，这些步骤可以涉及到上载文件到诸如VOD服务器的装置。在步骤1452，可以给用户提供选取上载特征的机会。在步骤1454，点播媒体系统可以检查用户是否正在注册系统。若用户目前没有注册，则可以在步骤1455要求用户进行注册。在步骤1456，系统可以检查注册是否有效。在当前用户注册到系统的情况下，上载过程可以在步骤1457开始。
在步骤1457，系统确定用户是否给出文件位置信息。如果需要，系统可以搜索文件源装置的用户设备。若找到文件源装置，则在步骤1459可以展示合适的上载选项。这些上载选项可以用图14A中装置按钮1410的形式展示给用户。若在步骤1458没有找到装置，则可以在步骤1459给用户展示缺省选项。缺省选项可以包括：例如，互联网上载框或用户设备可以包含的存储装置清单。在步骤1461，利用展示的选项可以给用户提供选取文件位置用于上载的机会。在步骤1462，可以上载选取的文件。如果需要，在步骤1472，系统可以对上载文件的文件格式进行转换(例如，把JPG文件转换成MPEG文件)和/或把模拟信号转换成数字文件格式。
在步骤1462上载文件之后，用户可能需要给那个文件指定接入权利。用户可能还需要把文件下载到点播媒体系统中的不同装置。图15A是显示屏1500的实例，显示屏500可以允许用户下载最近上载的文件或对该文件指定接入权利。
若用户希望指定上载的文件为公用文件，则可以选取公用按钮1531。若用户希望指定上载的文件为专用文件，则可以选取专用按钮1532。下载按钮1520可以包括在显示屏1500中。如果需要，系统可以把下载文件的文件格式进行转换(例如，把JPG文件转换成MPEG文件)和/或可以提供数模格式转换。这些按钮的例子可以包括：例如，下载到VCR按钮1511，下载到计算机按钮1512，和下载到DVD播放机按钮1513。然而，如果需要，可以给用户展示这样一个选项，给用户显示或播放可能是视听文件的文件。例如，系统可以给用户展示“view on your TV”按钮1533，按钮1533可以允许用户在用户的电视机上观看文件。
指定为专用的文件可以是与特定用户或特定用户组相关的文件，这些用户或用户组有其他用户不能接入的接入权利。接入操作可以限于某些活动，这些活动包括：例如，下载文件，观看文件，删除文件，写入文件，和操作文件。
图15B表示显示屏1550的实例，其中用户可以授权或约束接入到点播媒体系统中特定用户或用户组。显示屏1550可以包括：标识清单1580，它包含点播媒体系统中的用户和用户组清单。在从标识清单1580中选取用户和用户组之后(例如，在清单上导向并按下select键)，用户可以利用grant键1562授权接入到选取的用户或用户组。用户可以选取restrict键1563，用于约束接入到选取的用户或用户组。若用户决定使该文件为公用文件，则用户可以选取public按钮1564。
点播媒体系统可以包括用于帮助用户查找文件的文件搜索特征。图16A表示显示屏1600的实例，用户可以从显示屏1600搜索点播媒体系统上的文件。显示屏1600可以包括：搜索型清单1611。清单1611可以包括这样一些选项，允许用户指定哪些类型文件是在搜索中需要查找的文件。清单1611中的文件类型例子可以包括：用户有接入权利的文件，与当前用户相关的文件，展示视听材料的文件，例如，图片，游戏，或电视，或任何其他类型数据的文件。
搜索清单1612可以包括在显示屏1600中，给用户提供缩小搜索范围的能力。用户可以利用清单1612输入与文件标题或描述相关的可搜索文本。标识搜索清单框1613也可以包括在显示屏1600中，用于进一步缩小搜索范围。清单框1613给用户提供搜索与特定标识相关文件的能力。在点播媒体系统找到一个或多个文件之后，用户可以下载该文件到远程服务器或下载到用户设备系统中的装置。
图16B是显示屏1650的实例，显示屏1650允许用户下载文件搜索中查找的文件。显示屏1650可以包含找到文件清单框1680，其中可以列出找到的文件。清单框1680可以按照任何方式列出找到的文件，例如，按照字母顺序，如果需要，清单框1680可以包括数据或所有权的层次结构，它说明文件是在系统中何处找到的。通过选取下载按钮，例如，download按钮1662，清单框1680中的文件可以下载到远程服务器。例如，用户可以选取清单框1680中的文件，然后，移动光标到按钮1662以选取该按钮。基于什么装置包括在当前使用的用户设备内，device download按钮1670也可以包括在显示屏1650中。下载按钮1670可以包括：例如，下载到VCR按钮1671，下载到计算机按钮1672，下载到DVD播放机按钮1673，或下载文件到本地装置的任何其他合适按钮。如果需要，系统可以把下载文件的文件格式进行转换(例如，把JPG文件转换成MPEG文件)和/或可以提供数模格式的转换。此外，可以给用户展示view file选项1661，选项1661可以允许用户在用户设备上观看文件搜索中查找的文件。请参阅图15A中的“view on your TV”选项1533，该选项提供基本相同的功能。
为了简单明了，此处描述的特征和系统主要是在点播电视服务的语境下讨论的。利用其他类型的点播媒体服务也可以实现这些特征。点播媒体服务可用于给用户大量分配电影，节目，音乐作品集，等等。用户设备和远程网络服务器可以配置成在远程服务器上为用户存储诸个人媒体，例如，照片，家庭电视，老记录，或其他的媒体，允许用户在以后的时间作点播接入。上述的用户可以把所需的接入权利与用户在远程服务器上存储的媒体相联系。
实施此处描述的一些或全部特征可以作为部分的交互式电视节目制导，作为部分的点播媒体应用，作为这些特征的部分专门应用；或利用这些应用的组合加以实施。
如果需要，与再定位特征相联系，当用户注销系统时，系统可以提示用户选择是否冻结用户的点播媒体。此外，如果需要，与再定位特征相联系，系统可以允许用户从不同于点播媒体冻结的点开始恢复点播媒体的展示。例如，当用户再定位和实施再定位特征时，系统可以给用户提供从媒体的开始恢复点播媒体展示的选项。系统还允许用户倒带媒体，跳过媒体的冻结点。
以上的描述仅仅说明本发明的原理，在不偏离本发明范围和精神的条件下，本领域专业人员可以作出各种改动。
