It consists in transmitting to a server equipped for this purpose, commands in the form of "SMS" denoted according to a code determined, as well as an identifier consisting of the unique number of the receiving module present in the receiver's digital decoder, the server being adapted to format and broadcast digital messages to the reception systems of digital television channels and the decoders being arranged to interpret and execute the received recording commands. It is intended to allow the control of the decoder recording functions using, without being restrictive, the Internet network or a mobile phone.

Description

La présente invention a pour objet un système de commande 5The present invention relates to a control system 5

d'enregistrement à distance d'un décodeur numérique de télévision à disque dur.  remote recording of a hard disk television digital decoder.

Il est destiné à permettre le contrôle des fonctions d'enregistrement du décodeur en utilisant, sans que cela soit restrictif, le réseau Internet (l'utilisateur va sur un site spécifique), ou un téléphone portable.  It is intended to allow the control of the decoder's recording functions by using, without being restrictive, the Internet network (the user goes to a specific site), or a mobile phone.

H existe à ce jour des nouveaux décodeurs à disque dur. Ces appareils, qui permettent de recevoir les chaînes de télévision numérique, sont réalisés en versions satellite, terrestre, câble ou adsl.  To date, there are new hard disc decoders. These devices, which make it possible to receive the digital television channels, are made in satellite, terrestrial, cable or adsl versions.

Ces décodeurs permettent entre autre de nouvelles fonctions telles que: Visualisation retardée d'un programme ou "time shifting" commande qui entraîne l'enregistrement du programme dans une mémoire tampon et permet de le regarder avec un certain décalage dans le temps,.  These decoders allow, among other things, new functions such as: Delayed display of a program or "time shifting" command which causes the program to be saved in a buffer memory and allows it to be viewed with a certain lag in time.

- Enregistrement d'un programme: l'utilisateur choisit le programme à enregistrer, le jour, l'heure et la durée.  - Recording of a program: the user chooses the program to record, the day, the hour and the duration.

Actuellement, ces fonctions ne peuvent être utilisées que localement, en agissant directement sur les commandes du boîtier du décodeur, ou 25 à l'aide d'une télécommande.  Currently, these functions can only be used locally, by acting directly on the decoder box controls, or using a remote control.

Le système selon la présente invention a pour objectif de remédier à cet état de choses. II permet en effet de piloter à distance, au moyen d'un téléphone portable de type "GSM" ou d'un ordinateur, via le réseau Internet, l'enregistrement d'un programme audiovisuel sur le disque dur du décodeur numérique, ou le report à plus tard de sa visualisation.  The system according to the present invention aims to remedy this state of affairs. It makes it possible to control remotely, by means of a mobile phone type "GSM" or a computer, via the Internet, the recording of an audiovisual program on the hard disk of the digital decoder, or the postponement of its visualization.

Le procédé consiste à transmettre à un serveur équipé à cet effet, des ordres sous forme de "SMS" (Short Message Service), libellés suivant un code déterminé, ainsi qu'un identifiant constitué du numéro unique du module de réception présent dans le décodeur numérique du destinataire, le serveur étant adapté pour mettre en forme et diffuser des messages numériques vers les systèmes de réception de chaînes de télévision numériques et les décodeurs étant agencés pour interpréter et exécuter les commandes d'enregistrement reçues.  The method consists in transmitting to a server equipped for this purpose, orders in the form of "SMS" (Short Message Service), denominated according to a determined code, as well as an identifier consisting of the unique number of the reception module present in the decoder digital receiver, the server being adapted to format and broadcast digital messages to reception systems of digital TV channels and decoders being arranged to interpret and execute the recording commands received.

La description ci-après se rapporte à un exemple non limitatif d'une des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention.  The following description relates to a non-limiting example of one of the embodiments of the subject of the invention.

Le système est basé sur l'utilisation d'au moins un serveur apte à mettre en forme et transmettre les commandes d'enregistrement par réseau câblé ou hertzien de type terrestre ou satellite, et de décodeurs numériques aptes à interpréter et exécuter lesdites commandes.  The system is based on the use of at least one server capable of formatting and transmitting terrestrial or satellite cable or terrestrial type cable and digital set-top box commands capable of interpreting and executing said commands.

Le principe fonctionne à partir du moment où chaque décodeur a un identifiant formé d'un numéro unique, par exemple "1234".  The principle works from the moment when each decoder has an identifier formed of a unique number, for example "1234".

A partir d'un téléphone portable de type "GSM", l'utilisateur envoie, 20 par exemple, les commandes suivantes: - "1234, TF1, 250405, 2000, 60, R" : enregistrement sur le décodeur 1234 de la chaîne TF1 le 25 avril 2005 à 20 heures 00 heures, durant 60 minutes. (cas, par exemple d'une personne en vacances ou en déplacement professionnel.) - "1234, TF1, 250405, 2000, T" : enregistrement sur le décodeur 1234 de la chaîne TF1 le 25 avril 2005 à 20 heures 00, en mode "time shifting". (cas, par exemple d'une personne bloquée dans un embouteillage.) Le contenu de ce message SMS est acheminé sur le décodeur portant l'identifiant "1234" en utilisant, par exemple, le service de messagerie "Infocast mail - SMS".  From a "GSM" type mobile phone, the user sends, for example, the following commands: "1234, TF1, 250405, 2000, 60, R": recording on the decoder 1234 of the TF1 channel on April 25, 2005 at 8:00 pm, for 60 minutes. (case, for example of a person on vacation or business trip.) - "1234, TF1, 250405, 2000, T": recording on the decoder 1234 of the TF1 channel on April 25, 2005 at 8:00 pm, in "time shifting". (For example, a person stuck in a traffic jam.) The content of this SMS message is routed to the decoder with the identifier "1234" using, for example, the "Infocast mail - SMS" messaging service.

Le décodeur interprète alors le message et lance l'exécution conformément à la dernande de l'utilisateur.  The decoder then interprets the message and starts the execution according to the request of the user.

Le positionnement des divers éléments constitutifs donne à l'objet 5 de l'invention un maximum d'effets utiles qui n'avaient pas été, à ce jour, obtenus par des systèmes similaires.  The positioning of the various constituent elements gives the object of the invention a maximum of useful effects which had not been obtained so far by similar systems.
