Abstract
Description
In zunehmendem Maße verbinden sich Fernseh- und Computertechnik zu Multimedia- Systemen. Die Betriebssysteme in derartigen Geräten sind statisch programmiert.TV and computer technology are increasingly being combined into multimedia Systems. The operating systems in such devices are statically programmed.
Neuerungen und Weiterentwicklungen können daher nicht berücksichtigt werden.Innovations and further developments can therefore not be considered.
Angesichts der kurzen Innovations-Zyklen steht ein Anwender schon bald von der Alternative, sein Gerät mit veralteter Betriebssystem-Software weiterzubetreiben oder sich ein neues Gerät anzuschaffen.In view of the short innovation cycles, a user will soon be away from the Alternative to continue operating your device with outdated operating system software or to buy a new device.
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein technisches System mit Dienstcharakter der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 näher bezeichneten Lösung, indem updates der Betriebssoftware von Fernseh-, Video- oder multimediafähigen Geräten fernprogram miert werden.The invention relates to a technical system with a service character in Preamble of claim 1 specified solution by updates of Operating software for television, video or multimedia-enabled devices be lubricated.
Dabei werden von der Dienstleistungszentrale über ein Verteilmedium - hier vorzugs weise die vertikale Austastlücke - Geräte mit entsprechendem Empfangs- und Decoder-Modul selektiv angesprochen. Jedes einzelne Empfangs- und Decoder-Modul ist adressierbar. Es können auf diese Weise gezielt einzelne Geräte, Gruppen von Geräten oder auch alle Geräte fernadressiert werden.The service center uses a distribution medium - preferred here as the vertical blanking gap - devices with appropriate reception and Decoder module addressed selectively. Every single receive and decoder module is addressable. In this way, individual devices, groups of Devices or all devices can be remotely addressed.
Ist ein Gerät erreicht, kann ihm ein Update der vorhandenen oder eine vollständig neue
Betriebssystem-Software fernprogrammiert werden. Auf diese Weise können vor
handene Geräte über einen wesentlich längeren Zeitraum hinweg auf dem aktuellen
Stand der Technik gehalten werden.If a device is reached, it can update the existing or a completely new one
Operating system software can be programmed remotely. In this way, existing devices can be kept up to date with the current state of the art over a considerably longer period of time.
Es ist kein System gemäß Hauptanspruch bekannt.No system according to the main claim is known.
Es sind Erfindungen bekannt, um Werbung in Fernsehprogrammen zu unterdrücken.Inventions are known to suppress advertising in television programs.
Im VPS (Video Programm System) sind Datenwörter zur Kennzeichnung der Programmarten vorgesehen. Diese werden jedoch für die Kennzeichnung von Werbung nur von den öffentlich-rechtlichen Sendern ARD und ZDF genutzt.In VPS (Video Program System) data words are used to identify the Program types provided. However, these are used for labeling advertising only used by the public broadcasters ARD and ZDF.
Die Erfindung DE 43 03 942 A1 beschreibt ein Zusatzgerät zur Unterdrückung von Werbespots bei Fernseh- und Videoaufzeichnungen. Nachteilig bei dieser Erfindung ist, daß die Geräte über eine externe Infrarot-Fernbedienung erfolgt. Die vorliegende Anmeldung geht von fest in den Geräten integrierten Empfängern und Decodern aus. Nachteilig bei der Erfindung ist ferner die Nutzung der Kurzwelle als Verteilmedium für das Signal, da hier mit Fehlauslösungen durch Schwund (Fading) und atmosphärische Störungen zu rechnen ist. Dieser Nachteil wird erfindungsmäßig durch die Übertragung des Signals in der vertikalen Austastlücke eines Fernsehkanals behoben. Als Nachteil der DE 43 03 942 A1 ist schließlich anzusehen, daß weder für die Struktur des Signals (analog/digital?) noch des Datentelegramms erfindungsmäßig eine Lösung aufgezeigt wird.The invention DE 43 03 942 A1 describes an additional device for suppressing Commercials for television and video recordings. The disadvantage of this invention is that the devices are carried out via an external infrared remote control. The present Registration is based on receivers and decoders permanently integrated in the devices. Another disadvantage of the invention is the use of shortwave as a distribution medium for the signal, since here with false tripping due to fading and atmospheric Faults can be expected. This disadvantage is inventively due to the transfer fixed the signal in the vertical blanking interval of a TV channel. As a disadvantage DE 43 03 942 A1 can finally be seen that neither for the structure of the signal (analog / digital?) of the data telegram according to the invention a solution becomes.
In der Patentschrift DE 41 06 246 C1 wird eine Elektronik zur Ausblendung von Werbung beschrieben. Die Erfindung ermöglicht das Abspeichern von Vor- und Nachspännen der Sender, welche, Beginn und Ende von Werbung charakterisieren. Durch den laufenden Vergleich des Fernsehprogramms mit den gespeicherten Bildmustern ist es möglich. Werbeblöcke zu identifizieren und dann zu unterdrücken. Nachteilig bei dieser Lösung ist den hohe Aufwand an Hard- und Software bei den Endgeräten (TV-Geräte, Videorecorder), der eine wirtschaftliche Nutzung erschwert. In the patent DE 41 06 246 C1, electronics for masking out Advertising described. The invention enables the storage of pre and Retensioning of the channels, which characterize the beginning and end of advertising. By continuously comparing the television program with the saved ones Image patterns are possible. Identify advertising blocks and then suppress them. The disadvantage of this solution is the high expenditure of hardware and software for the End devices (TV sets, video recorders) that make economic use more difficult.
Nachteilig ist weiterhin, daß jede Änderung der Werbe-Vor- und Nachspänne durch die Sender (was relativ häufig vorkommt) dazu führt, daß die Erkennung nicht mehr funktioniert bzw. daß die neuen Bildmuster vom System erst "gelernt" werden müssen. Der Vorteil der Erfindung gemäß Anspruch 4 liegt darin, daß die Kennsignale für Werbung nicht durch eine komplexe Elektronik sondern durch Menschen mit ihrem nahezu unbegrenzten Assoziationsvermögen erzeugt werden. Vorteilhaft für die wirtschaftliche Verwertbarkeit ist ferner, daß es die Philosophie des technischen Systems mit Dienstcharakter ist, den Aufwand an der Quelle bei der Signalerzeugung eher groß, dafür den Aufwand in der Senke bei den Endgeräten sehr klein zu halten. Empfänger-/Decoder-Module lassen sich nach heutigem Stand der Technik in einem einzigen Chip integrieren, dessen Stückpreis bei Massenfertigung entsprechend niedrig ausfällt.Another disadvantage is that any change in the advertising credits and credits by Transmitter (which happens relatively often) means that the detection no longer works or that the new image patterns must first be "learned" by the system. The advantage of the invention according to claim 4 is that the identification signals for Advertising not through complex electronics but through people with theirs almost unlimited associations are generated. Beneficial for the Economic usability is also that it is the philosophy of technical System with service character is the effort at the source in the signal generation rather large, but to keep the sink effort for the end devices very small. According to the current state of the art, receiver / decoder modules can be combined in one Integrate single chip, the unit price for mass production correspondingly low fails.
Ein System zur Fernadressierung von Videogeräten für RDS bzw. VPS ist aus der DE- OS 42 03 021 A1 bekannt. In dieser ist eine Einrichtung beschrieben, mittels RDS- oder VPS-Signalen Gruppen von Aufzeichnungsgeräten fernzusteuern. Die Schrift bezieht sich jedoch auf einen Dienst für autorisierte Abonnenten im Rahmen einer geschlossenen Benutzergruppe. Nachteilig bei der beschriebenen Lösung ist, daß sie nur einem beschränkten Teilnehmerkreis zur Verfügung steht und nicht von allen Fernsehteilnehmern nutzbar ist.A system for remote addressing of video devices for RDS or VPS is from DE- OS 42 03 021 A1 known. In this a device is described, using RDS or VPS signals to control groups of recorders remotely.
