In one implementation, a subscriber is provided an alternative service upon attempting to access an unauthorized service, thereby providing a framework for efficient control of conditional access and enhanced services. In addition, in one implementation, user device limitations or variations are handled conveniently through the same multi-purpose system for providing alternative services.
In implementing enhanced programming, the home communication terminal (��HCT��), otherwise known as the settop box, has become an important computing device for accessing video services and navigating a subscriber through a maze of services available. In addition to supporting traditional analog broadcast video functionality, digital HCTs (or ��DHCTs��) now also support an increasing number of services which are not analog, but rather digital; are not basic broadcast, but rather two-way communication such as video-on-demand; and are not basic video, such as e-mail or web browsers. These are all in addition to the host of other television services which are increasingly being demanded by consumers, examples of which include audio and audio/visual programming, advanced navigation controls, impulse pay-per-view technology, and on-line commerce. In addition to the interactive services, the increased bandwidth available through a digital television system has made it possible for a subscriber to have access to hundreds, or even thousands, of channels and/or services. Thus, in order to provide these more powerful and complex features, the simple conventional channel abstractions need to be extended beyond those which have traditionally been provided.
The BFS 41, 55 is implemented to appear to applications as a standard hierarchical file system that is common in computer operating systems. The underlying mechanism for transporting files from a headend server 111 to a DHCT 16 relies on a broadcast data carousel mechanism (not shown) that in a preferred embodiment is compliant with the carousel channel specification of the ISO MPEG-2 (Motion Picture Experts Group-Second Standard) entitled Digital Storage Media-Command and Control (DSM-CC). Uniform resource locators (URL) specify ��bfs:�� as the protocol identity files on the carousel.
Watch TV 42 and Pay-Per-View (PPV) 44 are resident applications in flash memory 31. Watch TV 42 enables a user to simply ��watch television�� while PPV 44 enables viewing of premium television services. These applications, because they are in flash memory 31, are always available to the subscriber and do not need to be downloaded each time the DHCT 16 initializes.
Various application clients can be downloaded into DRAM 32 via the BFS or other means, such as TCP/IP, at the request of the SAM 37. An application client is the portion of an application that executes on the DHCT 16 and provides the application's services to the subscriber typically through a graphical user interface. The applications that are stored in the DRAM 32 may be applications that are loaded when the DHCT 16 initializes or are applications that are downloaded to the DHCT 16 upon a subscriber-initiated command using an input device such as the remote 27. In this non-limiting example, as shown in FIG. 2, DRAM 32 contains the following application clients (hereinafter referred to as ��application(s)��): a video-on-demand application (VOD) 43, and an e-mail application 45. It should be obvious to one with ordinary skill in the art that these applications are not limiting and merely serve as examples for this present embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 3 is a diagram of the cable television system of FIG. 1 including selected components located in the headend of the cable television system and a layered view of selected elements in the DHCT. In the implementation shown, the headend 11, includes multiple application servers 51, 51��, 51″ that are responsible for provisioning the services provided by the application and for providing the content or data needed by the DHCT 16, which is discussed in more detail below. A series of application servers 51 are connected to a digital network control system 53 via an Ethernet connection 52 such as a 10BaseT or a 100BaseT. An application server manager (not shown) may be included to serve as a registry for all application servers 51 residing on the system headend 11. Through the application server manager graphical user interface (GUI), the GUI for all application servers 51 can be accessed.
Authorization information can be specified using the SAM server 56 for each service in the service table. This information can include a conditional access ��key�� specific to the system that can be delivered to specific DHCTs 16 in a secure manner and processed by a security processor (not shown) and/or conditional access components (not shown) housed in DHCT 16. It also can include an alternate service to use if the given service is not authorized. As an example, the service table 62 contains pointers 64, 65, 66 routing a service to a different service other than the first service so that the second or subsequent service is an alternative to the first service which may be prohibited to an individual subscriber.
With additional reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, the SAM 37 and the navigator 35, in this non-limiting example, implement the service activation using an alternative service scheme 80 in the following manner. If a subscriber attempts to tune the DHCT 16 to channel 9, as in step 82, the subscriber inputs that command to the DHCT 16 via the remote 27. The navigator 35 will eventually receive the input command from the remote and query the SAM 37 to learn what service is linked to channel 9 as requested by the subscriber, as in step 84. The SAM 37 accesses the SAM database 40 to read the channel table 61 to determine which service is referenced to channel 9 in channel table 61, as in step 86. In this example, the SAM 37 reports to the navigator 35, as depicted in step 88, that the service Watch TV+HBO is mapped through pointer 63 a to channel 9 in the channel table 61. The navigator 35 next requests of SAM 37, as in step 90, whether the Watch TV+HBO service is authorized to the individual subscriber making the request. The SAM 37, in step 92, accesses the service table 62 to determine, in step 94, if a conditional access or authorization ��key�� is defined for HBO. If no key is defined for HBO, SAM 37 activates the service, as in step 96. If an authorization key is defined for HBO, SAM 37 uses that ��key,�� as in step 98, to ask the operating system 33 to check the authorization database 47 to determine whether the Watch TV+HBO service is authorized to the subscriber, as depicted in step 100. If, in this non-limiting example, the subscriber is authorized to view Watch TV+HBO, SAM 37 reports this fact to the navigator 35 and the service is activated, as shown in step 102. However, if the subscriber is not authorized for the service (Watch TV+HBO), SAM 37 reports this facts to the navigator as well, as in step 104.
The navigator 35 may then present the subscriber with several options that range from either a denial of service, an opportunity to purchase the service, or a routing to an alternative service (which may include a service offering purchase of the first service). Traditionally, the simplest solution is to merely present an unauthorized message screen to the user on channel 9 denoting that the subscriber has not paid or purchased that particular service. The navigator 35 may also be configured to present the subscriber an opportunity to purchase the prohibited service, in this case, HBO, either as a subscription or a one-time fee similar to pay per view by inputting commands through the remote 27 to acknowledge the purchase of the HBO service. Such an opportunity may be provided through a ��purchase HBO�� service available as an alternative service, as discussed below. In providing the subscriber the opportunity to purchase the prohibited service, the navigator 35 may present descriptive information about the individual service features and functions as a marketing attempt to entice the subscriber to purchase the prohibited service.
In an alternative embodiment, the DHCT 16 may be programmed or configured to properly present data to a display 21 configured for high definition television (��HDTV��). A problem with channel mapping arises with the advent of HDTV for subscribers who may or may not have HDTV viewing capabilities. FIG. 7 is a diagram of alternative services where the alternative services are different viewing formats rather than different services altogether as discussed above.
A subscriber identifies with the navigator 35, using an interactive settings GUI, such as a configuration setting, the type of television set display 21 that is connected to the DHCT 16, such as an HDTV or a standard television (��STV��). In normal operation, SAM 37 is informed of dual or multiple carried services or programs through the service information 61, 62 that identifies the services. Multiple SAM 37 services for the different programming configurations (such as for HDTV and STV) are defined and transmitted throughout the network 20.
In an alternative embodiment, the navigator 35 allows a subscriber to request display of any channel and the alternate service authorization mechanism described previously is used to activate the service that provides the appropriate format. A conditional access ��key�� is defined for the HDTV format, and embedded in the service definition for HDTV services. Those services are mapped to the channels. The alternate service for each of the HDTV services is the standard format service. Thus, if a subscriber has an STV display 21 but attempts to tune to an HDTV service, the navigator 35 and SAM 37 use the alternate service mechanism described earlier to ultimately activate the standard service.
FIG. 7 is a diagram of an example of channel mapping scheme stored in memory of the DHCT 16 shown in FIG. 2 which depicts routing between HDTV and STV formats. The system operator at the headend 11 may map channels 63 between the channel table 61 and the service table 62 such that some of the services 62 are programmed for HDTV and others are not. The SAM 37 includes a ��multiple-feed attribute�� bitmap where a ��one�� value in the bit corresponding to a service indicates a multiple-carried service. A list of pointers 63, organized in sequential order, contain pointers to a service table 62 corresponding to the channels in the channel table 61. The service table 62 may contain information pertaining to the number of feeds, respective source IDs, and respective picture format. As a result, the mapping 63 to the channel table 61 may be such that, in normal operation, the subscriber is otherwise presented viewing of channels that are programmed in HDTV format even though the subscriber's television is not capable of viewing that type of service, which could result in system failure or improper operation. However, if the subscriber configures the DHCT 16 for the type of television set 21 that is connected to the DHCT 16, navigator 35 and SAM 37 will transparently tune to the services of the appropriate format. As a result, each time the subscriber attempts to tune a channel in the channel table 61 that is mapped 63 to a service in the service table 62 which is programmed in HDTV format, the alternative service mapping may automatically route the service from the HDTV format to STV format which the subscriber's display 21 may be able to show.
Some channel attributes are shared for the different formats of a particular service. Thus, service table 62 may include multiple services with the same broadcast logo or same channel station call letters if the services are offered in multiple feeds. Alternatively, different versions of the attributes may be used to indicate different levels of service. Thus, the basic ��NBC�� call letters may be implemented for the NBC service in STV format while ��NBC-HD�� may be used to signify the NBC feed in HDTV format.
The alternative service program, which comprises an ordered listing of executable instructions for implementing logical functions, can be embodied in any computer-readable medium for use by or in connection with an instruction execution system, apparatus, or device, such as a computer-based system, processor-containing system, or other system that can fetch the instructions from the instruction execution system, apparatus, or device and execute the instructions. In the context of this document, a ��computer-readable medium�� can be any means that can contain, store, communicate, propagate, or transport the program for use by or in connection with the instruction execution system, apparatus, or device. The computer readable medium can be, for example but not limited to, an electronic, magnetic, optical, electromagnetic, infrared, or semiconductor system, apparatus, device, or propagation medium. More specific examples (a nonexhaustive list) of the computer-readable medium would include the following: an electrical connection (electronic) having one or more wires, a portable computer diskette (magnetic), a random access memory (RAM) (magnetic), a read-only memory (ROM) (magnetic), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM or Flash memory) (magnetic), an optical fiber (optical), and a portable compact disc read-only memory (CDROM) (optical). Note that the computer-readable medium could even be paper or another suitable medium upon which the program is printed, as the program can be electronically captured, via for instance optical scanning of the paper or other medium, then compiled, interpreted or otherwise processed in a suitable manner if necessary, and then stored in a computer memory. Furthermore, any process descriptions or blocks in flow charts should be understood as representing modules, segments, or portions of code which include one or more executable instructions for implementing specific logical functions or steps in the process, and alternate implementations are included within the scope of the preferred embodiment of the present invention in which functions may be executed out of order from that shown or discussed, including substantially concurrently or in reverse order, depending on the functionality involved, as would be understood by those reasonably skilled in the art of the present invention.
