Method of transmitting audiovisual streams ahead of the user commands, and receiver and transmitter for implementing the method

a technology of audiovisual streams and user commands, applied in data switching networks, selective content distribution, two-way working systems, etc., can solve the problems of large number of channels available, inability to permanently transit, and inability to decode resources on the receiving device normally allow for decoding operations, so as to reduce bandwidth and reduce the perception of the transition

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention improves how users interact on TVs through displaying animated videos that mimic high definition content without adding any extra detail or details about what they are watching. This makes it easier for them to see things like characters moving around within their viewing area when scrolling downwardly along different directions.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patented technology relates to improving the efficiency of switching signals during zapping sessions where different sources may require varying delays due to changes in reception settings such as interference caused by factors like wires connecting devices. Current solutions have limitations in terms of minimized signaling delay and optimized band width usage.

Embodiment Construction

[0028]The operation of an audiovisual receiver 1 connected to a display device 2 will be described first using FIG. 1. The receiver comprises a central processing unit 3 linked to a program memory (ROM) and working memory (RAM) 4, and an interface 5 for a bidirectional communication with a network 6. According to a particular embodiment, the device is a computer provided with a graphic screen. The network is typically the Internet but the present invention relates to any network enabling audiovisual streams to be received, the bit rate must be sufficient but relatively limited for the possibility of transmitting all the streams in full-definition mode not to be possible. According to a preferred exemplary embodiment, the network uses ADSL technology. The receiver further comprises a receiver of infrared signals 7 to receive the signals from a remote control 8 and an audio / video decoding logic 10 for generating the audiovisual signals sent to the television screen 2. The remote contro

Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of transmitting audiovisual streams between at least one device controlled by a user and a server. The audiovisual streams specified by the requests from the user are displayed on the device. The user enters a first command to change stream to the server in order to set up a communication for the transmission of the determined stream. The server then creates the determined stream and at least one second stream with a reduced bandwidth. This second stream corresponds to a stream that is immediately accessible by a second command from the user.
The invention also relates to a receiver and a transmitter for implementing the method.
