摘要:
A method for monitoring the viewing of video content transmitted via a first wireless link (70) to a mobile terminal (200), in particular to a mobile telecommunication device, comprises the steps of: within the mobile terminal (200) automatically gathering information relating to the viewing of the video content; forwarding the gathered information to an interface (210) of the mobile terminal (200), the interface (210) allowing for sending data via a second wireless link (50); and transmitting the information to a data collection center (60) via the second wireless link (50). Therefore, the information is directly gathered within the mobile terminal (200), i. e. the integrity of the gathered data is not affected by the video display and audio playback means used. The transmission of the gathered information by means of a wireless link (50) allows for an instant (or short-term) analysis of the data at the data collection center. The monitored user (and therefore its viewing habits) are completely unaffected by the inventive monitoring method.

A receiving apparatus provided with an analyzer adapted to analyze a reception signal, a memory adapted to store therein information on plural broadcasting systems, a judgement unit adapted to judge a signal broadcasting system on the basis of the results of an analysis made by the analyzer and the information on the broadcasting systems stored in the memory, and a reception processor adapted to receive and process a signal on the basis of the results of a judgement outputted from the judgment unit. This enables a receiving apparatus capable of judging and receiving broadcasts of plural broadcasting systems automatically with a high accuracy to be obtained.

A coupon management system transmits or broadcasts a coupon information from a broadcasting/ transmitting system (20) to a receiving system (30) together with a program or commercial message. The receiving system generates a coupon issuance request on the basis of the coupon information, and attaches to the request an identifier of the program or commercial message with which the coupon information is provided. The coupon issuance request attached with the identifier is transmitted from the receiving system to a service center (60). The service center issues a coupon on the basis of the coupon issuance request and calculates a number of issued coupons for each program or commercial message.

The invention relates to a method for controlling an audience measurement relating to broadcast data. According to the invention, the method comprises the following steps: an information sending step in which a server (12) sends (22) to at least one device (14 or 16) at least one piece of information for disallowing an execution of an audience measurement relating to at least one piece of identified content data that is broadcast or to be broadcast; and an audience measurement stopping step in which the device stops (210) an audience measurement relating to the identified broadcast content data. The invention also relates to corresponding server, device and system for controlling an audience measurement relating to broadcast data.

A transcoder is adapted to perform transcoding of metadata to enable sharing and consumption of media content at dissimilar devices that are coupled to a home network. The transcoder, which is also coupled to the home network, is adapted to receive media content and metadata from a first media consumption device, to transcode the media content and metadata from a first format to second format, and to supply the transcoded media content and metadata to the second media consumption device in the second format. In one embodiment, the transcoder executes a method by which the transcoder obtains information about the sensing capabilities of a meter adapted to measure media at a media consumption device and subsequently uses that information to transcode the metadata into a format suitable for sensing by the meter.

The invention relates to a method for controlling an audience measurement relating to broadcast data. The broadcast data is to be received by at least one terminal. According to the invention, the method comprises the following steps: a controller sends 22 to at least one terminal at least one piece of information for forbidding or authorizing to send an audience measure relating to at least one piece of identified content data that is broadcast or to be broadcast; at least one terminal receives 24 the at least one piece of information for forbidding or authorizing to send an audience measure relating to at least one piece of identified content data that is broadcast or to be broadcast, and the terminal respectively inhibits 210 or authorizes 214 to send an audience measure relating to the identified broadcast content data.. The invention also relates to corresponding controller, device for controlling audience measurement relating to broadcast data and system.

A method for receiving information includes the steps of providing a search criteria, monitoring two or more digital radio signals for the search criteria, and performing an action in response to a found search criteria. The search criteria may be a transmission such as a song title, an artist's name, a product, a program, and combinations thereof.
