Abstract

Es wird ein Verfahren zur Darstellung multimedialer Nachrichten auf einem TV-Bildschirm vorgeschlagen, bei dem der Bildschirm in vier Quadranten unterteilt ist, die verschiedenen Elementen der Nachrichtung und des eigentlichen TV-Inhaltes zugeordnet sind und sich einheitlich mit einer herkömmlichen Fernbedienung bedienen lassen.A method for displaying multimedia messages on a TV screen is proposed, in which the screen is divided into four quadrants, which are associated with different elements of the news and the actual TV content and can be operated uniformly with a conventional remote control.

Description

Die Erfindung beschreibt ein Verfahren zur Darstellung multimedialer Nachrichten und ein Konzept zur Navigation auf einem TV-Bildschirm.The The invention describes a method for displaying multimedia News and a concept for navigation on a TV screen.

Der Abruf und die Darstellung multimedialer Nachrichten auf einem TV-Bildschirm erfordert neue Konzepte zur Navigation mittels einer einfachen Fernbedienung. Maßgeblich einschränkende Faktoren sind

  • • Konsumenten sind an eine Navigation über eine einfache Fernbedienung gewöhnt, deren besonderen Merkmale das Fehlen eines frei bewegbaren Pointer (Mausprinzip) sowie einer alphanumerischen Eingabe ist.
  • • Konsumenten erwarten gerade am TV-Bildschirm einfachste Bedienung, d.h. komplexe Aktionen und Abläufe müssen durch Drücken einer einzigen Taste auslösbar sein.
  • • Applikationen sollen simultan laufen können, d.h. deren Ausgaben müssen sich die Bildschirmfläche und die Bedienung teilen können. Dies erscheint gerade für Kommunikationsanwendungen auf einem TV-Bildschirm wichtig, um während eines Films, und ohne Szenen zu verpassen, Nachrichten empfangen und darstellen zu können.
The retrieval and presentation of multimedia messages on a TV screen requires new concepts for navigation via a simple remote control. Significantly limiting factors are
  • • Consumers are used to navigating through a simple remote control whose special features are the lack of a freely movable pointer (mouse principle) and alphanumeric input.
  • • Consumers just expect the simplest operation on the TV screen, ie complex actions and processes must be triggered by pressing a single button.
  • • Applications should be able to run simultaneously, ie their outputs must be able to share the screen area and the operation. This is especially important for communication applications on a TV screen to be able to receive and display messages during a movie, and without scenes.

Die Erfindung beinhaltet ein Verfahren, das die Bildschirmfläche des TV-Apparates in vier Quadranten unterteilt, wobei die funktionale Anordnung innerhalb der Quadranten frei gestaltbar ist. Eine bevorzugte Ausführung ist:

  • • Quadrant 1 enthält das skalierte aktuelle Videobild.
  • • Quadrant 2 enthält eine navigierbare Visualisierung des aktuellen Nachrichtenarchivs (Inbox).
  • • Quadrant 3 enthält den Textteil der Nachricht, die mit Links auf die ergänzenden Medienkomponenten hinterlegt ist.
  • • Quadrant 4 zeigt das ausgewählte Medienelement.
  • • Es ist eine Statuszeile vorhanden, die die Funktion der vier farbcodierten und als Softkeys funktionierenden Tasten darstellt.
The invention includes a method that divides the screen of the television set into four quadrants, wherein the functional arrangement within the quadrant is freely designable. A preferred embodiment is:
  • • Quadrant 1 contains the scaled current video image.
  • • Quadrant 2 contains a navigable visualization of the current message archive (inbox).
  • • Quadrant 3 contains the body of the message that has links to the supplemental media components.
  • • Quadrant 4 shows the selected media item.
  • • There is a status line that represents the function of the four color-coded softkeys.

Die Navigation zwischen den Elementen ist derart gelöst, dass die vertikalen Cursortasten innerhalb eines Fensters sukzessive die in der Seite enthaltenen Links selektieren und die horizontalen Cursortasten sukzessive die Fenster selektieren. Auslösen der OK-Taste entspricht einem „Enter" und aktiviert den gerade selektierten Link.The Navigation between the elements is solved in such a way that the vertical cursor keys within a window successively contained in the page Select links and the horizontal cursor keys successively Select window. Trigger the OK key corresponds to an "Enter" and activates the just selected link.

Über die frei definierbaren und je nach Status unterschiedlich belegten farbcodierten Tasten ist ein Springen in andere Applikationen oder Funktionen realisiert:

  • • Full Screen Darstellung der Nachricht oder des Bildes oder des Videos.
  • • Nachrichteneditor öffnen.
  • • Optionen zur Verwaltung des Nachrichtenarchivs. – Aktuelle Nachricht löschen. – Alle Nachrichten löschen. – Alle Nachrichten, die älter als die aktuelle Nachricht sind, löschen. – Notifikationsmodus ändern.
  • • Screenshot.
About the freely definable and depending on the status differently assigned color-coded keys jumping into other applications or functions is realized:
  • • Full screen presentation of the message or picture or video.
  • • Open the message editor.
  • • Options for managing the message archive. - Delete current message. - Delete all messages. - Delete all messages that are older than the current message. - Change the notification mode.
  • • Screenshot.

Welches technische Problem liegt der Erfindung zugrunde:
Die Präsentation multimedialer Nachrichten auf einem TV-Bildschirm erfordert ein Bedienkonzept, das sich intuitiv und ausschließlich mit der herkömmlichen Fernbedienung bedienen lässt. Neben der Navigation in der Nachricht und dem Archiv müssen Zusatzfunktionen, wie zurück zum TV-Bildschirm, Signalisierungsmode, Optionen, ... realisiert und bedient werden können.Which technical problem is the basis of the invention:
The presentation of multimedia messages on a TV screen requires a control concept that can be operated intuitively and only with the conventional remote control. In addition to the navigation in the message and the archive additional functions, such as back to the TV screen, signaling mode, options, ... must be realized and operated.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Merkmale zur Lösung des Problems:
Kernpunkt der Erfindung ist es, den TV-Bildschirm in vier Quadranten einzuteilen, so dass das aktuelle TV-Bild skaliert in einem Quadranten weiter betrachtet werden kann. Ein weiterer Quadrant enthält das Nachrichtenarchiv, während die übrigen zwei Quadranten zur Darstellung der multimedialen Nachricht verwendet werden. Die Navigation in einem Quadranten erfolgt über die vertikalen Cursortasten in Kombination mit der OK-Taste zum Aktivieren eines Links, wohingegen die horizontalen Cursortasten zwischen den Quadranten wechseln. Die farbcodierten Tasten fungieren als Softkeys, deren aktuelle Belegung in einer Statuszeile angezeigt wird. Darüber können Zusatzfunktionen mit einem Tastendruck ausgelöst werden.The features according to the invention for solving the problem:
The essence of the invention is to divide the TV screen into four quadrants, so that the current TV picture can be scaled down in a quadrant. Another quadrant contains the news archive, while the remaining two quadrants are used to represent the multimedia message. Navigation in a quadrant is done using the vertical cursor keys in combination with the OK key to activate a link, whereas the horizontal cursor keys alternate between the quadrants. The color-coded keys function as softkeys whose current assignment is displayed in a status line. In addition, additional functions can be triggered with a keystroke.

Welche Vorteile haben die erfindungsgemäßen Merkmale:
Teilnehmer erhalten ein intuitiv mit einer herkömmlichen Fernbedienung navigierbares UI (User Interface) zur Präsentation multimedialer Nachrichten (ausdrücklich eingeschlossen sind auch SMS, EMAil, IM, FAX, voice mail) auf einem TV-Bildschirm.What are the advantages of the features according to the invention?
Participants receive an intuitive UI (User Interface) that can be navigated intuitively using a conventional remote control to present multimedia messages (including SMS, EMAil, IM, FAX, voice mail) on a TV screen.
