Definitions
- the invention relates generally to a system and method for recording digital media content. More specifically, the invention provides a method and system for automatically recording digital media content of a main service when a sub-service is accessed.
- PVRs Personal video recorders
- DVRs digital video recorders
- a user can record a television program that has been broadcast and then perform various functions. For example, under a conventional PVR 3 a user can watch a live sporting event and press a pause button during the event to answer a phone or the door, get a drink, or even leave for an errand. Upon return, the user can then start the event from the time it was paused. The user can even rewind the event or fast forward up to the current live point. Therefore, a user has control to watch an instant reply on a sporting event, hear a favorite song again during a concert event, or listen to a phrase again during a live debate or speech.
- a user can schedule a certain television program to be recorded. For example, a user can record a soccer game being broadcast on a certain station. A tuner connected to the DVR receives the broadcast soccer game and the DVR records the soccer game. A user can watch the soccer game at any time during or after recording. As the user is watching the game, she can rewind to instantly replay a certain moment in the game. Alternatively, if the user misses the first half of the game, the user can start watching the game from the beginning while the DVR continues to record the live/current broadcast. The user can fast forward to skip commercials or halftime and/or start watching from the live/current broadcast.
- conventional systems do not allow a user to access a sub-service while the main service is being broadcast and recorded.
- the main service is digital media content, such as a television being broadcast, a user can not switch to access a sub-service and have the system continue to record the main service.
- a method for automatically recording digital media content comprises steps of receiving digital media content of a main service, receiving a sub-service signal indicating a request to access a sub-service, accessing the sub-service, initiating automatic recording of the digital media content of the main service, receiving a main service signal indicating a request to return to the main service, and accessing the main service in response to the request to return.
- the main service may be a television program service and the sub-service may be an Internet browser application.
- aspects of the system may be included within or include a set-top terminal or a mobile electronic device.

- GPRS General Packet Radio Service
- a buffer system 110 is shown to include a number of buffers 111-1 - 111 -n.
- a switch between receiver 101 and the buffer system 110 allows for data received from the receiver 101 to be stored in various buffers 111-1 - 111-n.
- the output of the buffers 111-1 - 111-n and transceiver 103 are shown connected to a display (rendering) control 121 through a rendering selection switch. Data is then sent to the rendering means, e.g., the display 131.
- a user may select the service, e.g., television program, which she wants to view.
- the received bursts of data are loaded into a buffer system 110 before rendering the service, e.g. on a display 131.
- System 100 is shown to include a plurality of buffers 111-1 - 111 -n, which are used for buffering data from different received services.
- the size of one buffer 111-1 is such that data from a number of services may be buffered in that buffer.
- the user may select which of the services is rendered, e.g., displayed. During the rendering, e.g., display of one service, the data from other selected services may be buffered.
- the user may select which service or which of the available services are stored in said one 111-1 or more buffers.
- the buffering, i. e., storing, of data is done automatically.
- the main service such as a television program, which the user was viewing is automatically recorded when the user changes to a sub-service, such as browsing the Internet.
- IPDC IP datacasting
- IPDC IP datacasting
- IP-based broadcasting network Through such an IP-based broadcasting network, one or more service providers can supply different types of IP services including on-line newspapers, radio, and television. These IP services are organized into one or more media streams in the form of audio, video and/or other types of data.
- IPDC network using timeslicing the different services may be transmitted as data bursts at the same frequency. Each of the services is identifiable and each has a transmitting schedule, wherein the time for the next data burst for the service is announced with a parameter delta-t.
- FIG. 2 is an illustrative time graph showing recordation and consumption of services in accordance with at least one aspect of the present invention.
- a user is consuming, e.g., watching digital media content in the form of a television program, service 1, a main service.
- service 1 a main service.
- the user decides to access service 2, a sub-service.
- the main service, service 1 continues to be rendered, e.g., displayed.
- the user may return to the sub-service, service 2, at a later point in time, where the data relating to the sub-service is buffered, shown in Figure 2 by a dotted line.
- the user also may terminate the sub-service, wherein Buffer 2 may be emptied, e.g., by deleting the contents of the buffer. In such a case, Buffer 2 may be overwritten with other data from another service.
- the user begins consuming other service(s), and the buffer unloading of the content of data burst Bl stops.
- the buffer is loaded with the contents of data bursts B2 and B3.
- the buffer contains data from data bursts Bl, B2, and B3. All the data from the most recent bursts B3 and B2 are stored in the buffer. In addition, data from data burst Bl which has not yet been shown/rendered from when the user switched to the sub-service also is stored in the buffer. If an overflow of the buffer occurs, there are configurable options as to which data is discarded. For example, in one option, the oldest data may be discarded. For another example, user preferences may be employed to determine the data to be discarded, such as to discard news type data, but maintain sports type data. The data can be coded and/or tagged in some manner to distinguish by type, thereby allowing a user to categorize her preference by the type.
- Figure 4 is another illustrative time graph showing buffer content over time when recording a service in accordance with at least one aspect of the present invention.
- the user may keep the data from the recorded data bursts in the buffer if the capacity of the buffer allows it or she may delete or discard some parts of the recorded data.
