Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a service providing method and system that combines the playback of music content and voice chat. Specifically, the music content and voice chat are transmitted or received through separate channels and shared with participants, and the modification of the playback list of the music content is reflected to the participants in real time. The present disclosure relates to a service providing method and system that combines the playback of music content and voice chat.

Background Art

[0002] Recently, due to the development of IT technology and the spread of viral diseases, social distancing, telecommuting, etc. have become common, and various services or contents are provided in a non-contact manner. For example, various cultural contents such as sports, movies, and music performances that users used to enjoy by directly visiting, and various gatherings that users used to hold face-to-face are provided in a non-face-to-face manner through an online service platform based on the Internet.

[0003] In particular, in order to conduct online communication between acquaintances such as friends or family, voice chat applications have been used, and recently the user base has been further expanding. Although using a voice chat application has the advantage of being able to have a conversation without having a face-to-face gathering, there are many restrictions for participants to share various contents such as music together.

[0004] On the one hand, various service platforms for sharing music content among multiple users have recently emerged. Participants in such service platforms may desire to chat or share opinions while enjoying the shared music content. For example, a voice chat can be executed during the playback of music content shared among multiple users. However, in this case, the sound quality may deteriorate due to the mixing of the music content being played and the voice conversation, making it difficult to appreciate high-quality music content. Also, in existing music content sharing services, since the sound source list set by the host is played and other participants passively listen to the music being played, smooth content sharing and communication among participants may be difficult.

[0035] FIG. 1 is a drawing showing an example in which a service combining music content playback and voice chat according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is provided. FIG. 1 illustrates an example in which user 110 receives a service combining music content playback and voice chat through user terminal 120. In one embodiment, a music content sharing room list 130 may be provided through user terminal 120 associated with user 110. The music content sharing room list 130 may include at least one of the title, theme, opener or host, tag information, participant information, or current music content information of the music content sharing rooms included in the list.

[0036] According to one embodiment, user 110 can enter the corresponding music content sharing room 140 by selecting one of the music content sharing rooms in list 130. For example, as shown in the illustration, the uppermost sharing room 140 among the plurality of sharing rooms included in the music content sharing room list 130 can be selected to enter the corresponding sharing room. In this case, user 110 can become a participant in the entered music content sharing room 140. Alternatively, user 110 can open a new music content sharing room and become the host of the opened music content sharing room.

[0037] When user 110 enters music content sharing room 140, user terminal 120 or the processor can receive music content data related to the corresponding music content sharing room 140. The music content data can include some or all of the data related to the music content shared in the music content sharing room. The music content data can include, but is not limited to, current music content, playback information, music content lists, etc. The current music content included in the music content data can include the music content that is currently being played or is currently waiting to be played in the music content sharing room. The playback information can include information related to the playback of the current music content. For example, it can include information on whether the current music content is currently being played, information on the part of the current music content that is currently being played, etc. The music content list can include a list of one or more music contents, order information, user information who added or recommended the corresponding music content to the list, shuffle playback information, repeat playback information, etc.

[0038] In one embodiment, the processor can output the received music content data. For example, the current music content can be played according to the playback information, and the music content list 170 can be output on the display. In one embodiment, user 110 can save at least one of the music contents included in music content list 170 in the memory of user terminal 120 or the user account, or add it to the personal playlist.

[0039] Additionally, a player user interface 150 including information on current music content may be displayed on the display of the user terminal 120. For example, as shown in the figure, the title, singer, album cover, and the part currently being played of the current music content may be displayed on the display of the user terminal 120. The information on the current music content may be included in the received music content data. Additionally or alternatively, when the user 110 is granted playback control authority by the host, a user interface capable of controlling the player may be displayed on the display of the user terminal 120.

[0040] In one embodiment, the player control group may include at least one of the host or a user granted playback control authority by the host. A user belonging to the player control group can control the playback of the music content in the music content sharing room, or generate, change, or delete a music content list. For example, a user belonging to the player control group can control the playback of the music content by pausing the playback of the current music content, playing the current part and other parts, or playing other music content included in the music content list.

[0041] Due to a music content playback control request or a music content list change request of a user belonging to the player control group, one or more user terminals or processors associated with one or more participants belonging to the music content sharing room can receive the changed music content data in real time. Accordingly, the changed music content data can be output through the user terminals associated with each participant. For example, the processor can play other parts of the current music content based on the changed music content data, and additionally, can display the part currently being played on the display. As another example, the processor can play new music content based on the changed music content data, and additionally, can output a player user interface including information on the new music content.

[0042] In one embodiment, when user 110 belongs to the player control group, in response to a request for playback control of music content or a request for changing the music content list through the operation of player user interface 150 of user 110, the processor can transmit the changed music content data to the information processing system in real time, and the processors of the user terminals related to the participants in the music content sharing room can receive and output the changed music content data in a manner similar to the above-described process.

[0043] The above-described process of transmitting, receiving, and outputting the changed music content data can be performed in real time whenever there is a request from a user belonging to the player control group. With such a configuration, different from the conventional one-way sharing of music content by a radio broadcast host, the player control of at least some of the participants is reflected in real time to all the participants, and music content can be shared bidirectionally among the participants.

[0044] Additionally, in response to the entry of user 110 into music content sharing room 140, the processor can receive the participant list of the corresponding music content sharing room 140. The participant list can include some or all of the data related to one or more participants who are participating in the music content sharing room. The participant list can include a list of one or more participants, the nickname of each participant, a profile photo, voice chat permissions, and the like. In one embodiment, the processor can output the received participant list 160. For example, as shown in the figure, the processor can output the nickname of the participant, the profile photo, voice chat permissions, etc. on the display.

[0045] According to an embodiment, when there is a voice chat of a participant who is participating in the same music content sharing room as the user 110, the processor can receive the voice chat data. The voice chat data can include part or all of the data related to the voice chat of the music content sharing room participants. In addition to the voice data, the voice chat data can additionally include participant information related to the user terminal that sent the corresponding voice chat. The music content data can be transmitted or received through a communication channel set between the user terminal and the information processing system. Also, the voice chat data can be transmitted or received through a communication channel separate from the music content data. Here, the communication channel can be a physical communication channel or a logical communication channel set between the user terminal and the information processing system. For example, the music content data and the voice chat data can be transmitted or received through a communication channel (e.g., a streaming channel by RTSP (real-time streaming protocol), a VoIP channel by RTP (real-time transport protocol), etc.) based on the data transmission and control protocol of the Internet infrastructure set between the user terminal and the information processing system. As an alternative, the communication channel may refer to a data field included in a data packet set for transmitting and receiving the music content data and / or the voice chat data. By transmitting and receiving the music content data and the voice chat data between the user terminal and the information processing system through such a separated communication channel, high-quality music content data and voice chat data can be shared among multiple participants.

[0046] According to one embodiment, the processor can play at least a part of the voice chat data received through one communication channel simultaneously with at least a part of the music content data received through another communication channel. For example, the processor can play the voice data included in the received voice chat data simultaneously with the music content data currently being played. Additionally or alternatively, the processor can mix and play at least a part of the voice chat data received through one communication channel with at least a part of the music content data received through another communication channel. In the present disclosure, "mixing" can mean synthesizing one or more sound source sources into one sound source source or relatively adjusting the volume of one or more sound source sources for playing them simultaneously, such as voice chat data, music content data, etc. In some embodiments, the processor can reduce the playback volume of at least a part of the music content data while playing at least a part of the voice chat data. For example, the processor can play the voice data included in the voice chat data such that the playback volume of the currently playing music content becomes 50% of the current volume. By reducing the playback volume of the music content data during the playback of the voice chat data in this way, the voice chat among the participants can proceed smoothly.

[0047] In one embodiment, when there is a voice chat of user 110, the processor can send the voice chat data to the information processing system, and the processors of the user terminals related to other participants in the music content sharing room can receive and play the voice chat data in a manner similar to the process described above. Also, the above-described processes of sending, receiving, and playing the voice chat data can be performed in real time each time there is a voice chat of the participants in the music content sharing room. In this way, by the processor receiving the music content and the voice chat through separate channels and playing them simultaneously, the participants in the music content sharing room can enjoy high-quality music content together while having a voice chat at the same time.

The information and / or data processed by the processor 334 can be provided to the user terminal 210 through the communication module 336 and the network 220. In one embodiment, the processor 334 of the information processing system 230 can add or delete participant information including the user's nickname and profile photo to / from the participant list of the music content sharing room in response to a user's request to enter or exit the music content sharing room. Additionally, the processor 334 can transmit the changed participant list to the user terminals of the participants in the music content sharing room in response to a change in the participant list.

[0064] FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing a method 400 for providing a service that combines the playback of music content and a voice chat according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method 400 can be started when the processor receives music content data of the music content sharing room through a first channel (S410). In one embodiment, the first channel can be a physical or logical communication channel set between the user terminal and the information processing system. In other embodiments, the first channel may be one field of a data packet transmitted through a communication channel set between the user terminal and the information processing system.

[0065] In one embodiment, the music content data can include a music content list, current music content, playback information, etc. Additionally, the processor can receive a participant list including the nickname, profile photo, voice chat permission, etc. of each participant in the music content sharing room.

[0066] The processor can output the received music content data (S420). For example, the current music content can be played according to the playback information, and the music content list can be displayed on the display. Additionally, the processor can output the received participant list. For example, the nickname, profile photo, voice chat permission, etc. of each participant included in the participant list can be displayed on the display of the user terminal.

[0067] In one embodiment, due to the playback control request of the music content or the music content list change request of the user belonging to the player control group, the processor can receive the changed music content data in real time. Accordingly, the changed music content data can be output. For example, due to the request of the host to add new music content to the music content list, the processor can receive the added music content, order information, etc. Also, the processor can display the added music content in the music content list according to the order information.

[0068] The processor can receive voice chat data through the second channel (S430). In one embodiment, the second channel can be a physical or logical communication channel set separately from the first channel. In other embodiments, the first channel and the second channel may be separate fields of data packets transmitted on the communication channel.

[0069] In one embodiment, the voice chat data can include voice data and information about participants related to the user terminal that sent the voice chat. The processor can play at least a part of the received voice chat data simultaneously with at least a part of the music content data (S440). For example, the voice data included in the voice chat data can be played simultaneously with the music content data currently being played. Additionally or alternatively, the processor can mix and play at least a part of the received voice chat data with at least a part of the music content data. By transmitting or receiving the music content data and the voice chat data through separate channels and playing each data simultaneously (or by mixing), a decrease in the sound quality of the music content can be prevented. One or more of the above-described steps (S410, S420, S430, S440) can be repeatedly performed, and method 400 can end when the user leaves the music content sharing room.

[0070] The flowchart illustrated in FIG. 4 and the foregoing description are merely examples, and in some embodiments, one or more steps may be performed overlappingly, one or more steps may be repeatedly performed many times, or the order of each step may change. For example, if a music content list is generated while only a voice chat is being made in a music content sharing room, after the receiving step and the output step of the voice chat data are performed one or more times, the receiving step and the output step of the music content data may be performed.

[0071] FIG. 5 is a drawing showing an example of a method for opening a music content sharing room according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. According to one embodiment, a music content sharing room list 510 can be provided through a user terminal related to the user. The user can enter one of the music content sharing rooms in the list 510 and become a participant in the corresponding music content sharing room. Alternatively, the user can open a new music content sharing room and become the host of the opened music content sharing room.

[0072] According to another embodiment, the user can request a music content sharing room list related to a music content list including one or more target music contents 520, and the processor can output the requested music content sharing room list in response thereto. For example, as shown in the figure, the user can request a sharing room list including a song that is currently being played or is waiting to be played on the player of the user terminal in the music content list, and the processor can output the requested sharing room list. According to one embodiment, the user can enter one of the output lists into a music content sharing room and become a participant in the corresponding music content sharing room. Alternatively, the user can open a new music content sharing room including one or more target music contents 520 in the music content list and become the host of the opened music content sharing room.

[0073] In one embodiment, the user can determine the type of the corresponding sharing room at the stage of opening the music content sharing room. For example, as shown in the figure, the user can determine the availability of public disclosure (530) of the corresponding sharing room. When the host sets the music content sharing room to "public", the corresponding sharing room can be exposed in the music content sharing room list, and all users can enter the corresponding music content sharing room. When the host sets the corresponding sharing room to "private", entry into the corresponding sharing room is only possible through an invitation from the host or at least some of the participants. As another example, the user can select the presence or absence (540) of player control sharing in the sharing room. Player control can include playback control of music content or generation and modification of a music content list. When the host selects the "music playback mode", only the host and the participants granted control authority by the host can control the player. When the host selects the "player sharing mode", all participants in the corresponding sharing room can have player control authority. Additionally or alternatively, the type of the corresponding sharing room can be determined or changed after the corresponding sharing room is opened, not at the opening stage.

[0074] According to one embodiment, the host can generate or modify the music content list of the music content sharing room. For example, the host can search for music content and add it to the music content list, or add the playlist saved in the user account related to the host to the music content list. Additionally or alternatively, one or more music contents can be added to the music content list by accepting the playback requests of the participants for one or more music contents.

[0075] According to one embodiment, the music content list can be automatically generated by an artificial intelligence-based music selection model (e.g., a machine learning model) learned based on the user's music content-related information. For example, the music selection model can analyze and learn the user's music content preference information, playback or purchase records of music content, and generate a music content list including music content highly relevant to a specific user or a specific music content sharing room. Additionally or alternatively, a music content sharing room can be automatically generated based on the music content list generated by the music selection model.

[0076] FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing a method in which music content data is transmitted, received, and played back among a plurality of user terminals 610, 630 and an information processing system 620 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The first user terminal 610 can be a user terminal related to a first user newly entering a music content sharing room. The second user terminal 630 can be a user terminal related to a second user who is an existing participant in the corresponding sharing room and is included in a player control group. According to one embodiment, the first user terminal 610 can enter the music content sharing room in response to an entry request of the first user for the music content sharing room (612). Additionally, the first user terminal 610 can transmit the account information of the first user related to the first user to the information processing system 620.

[0077] In one embodiment, the information processing system 620 can respond to an entry request from a first user and add first user information including the first user's nickname and profile photo to the participant list of the music content sharing room. Further, in response to such a change in the participant list, the information processing system can transmit the changed participant list to user terminals (e.g., the first user terminal 610, the second user terminal 630) associated with the participants in the music content sharing room.

[0078] The first user terminal 610 can receive music content data 622 of the music content sharing room from the information processing system 620. In one embodiment, the music content data can include a music content list, current music content, playback information, and the like. The first user terminal 610 can output the received music content data (614). For example, the first user terminal 610 can play the current music content according to the playback information and can display the music content list on a display. Additionally, the first user terminal 610 can output the received participant list. For example, the first user terminal 610 can display on the display the nickname, profile photo, voice chat permission, etc. of each participant included in the participant list.

[0079] In one embodiment, the information processing system 620 can receive a music content data change request (632) from the second user terminal 630. Further, in response to receiving the change request (632), the information processing system 620 can transmit the changed music content data 624 to at least a part (e.g., the first user terminal 610) of the user terminals associated with the participants in the music content sharing room. For example, in response to a request from the second user to add new music content to the music content list, the information processing system 620 can transmit the added music content, order information, etc. to the first user terminal 610.

[0080] According to one embodiment, the first user terminal 610 and the second user terminal 630 can output modified music content data (616, 634). For example, the first user terminal 610 and the second user terminal 630 can display the added music content in a music content list according to order information. The flowchart illustrated in FIG. 6 and the foregoing description are merely examples, and in some embodiments, one or more steps may be repeatedly performed several times, or the order of each step may be changed. For example, the processes of transmitting and receiving a music content data change request (632), transmitting and receiving the modified music content data 624, and outputting the modified music content data (616, 634) may be repeatedly performed several times.

[0081] FIG. 7 is a drawing showing an example in which players are synchronized among a plurality of user terminals 710, 720, and 730 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The first user terminal 710 is a user terminal of a first user who is a host, the second user terminal 720 can represent a user terminal of a second user who is a participant with playback control authority, and the third user terminal 730 can represent a user terminal of a third user who is a participant without playback control authority. In one embodiment, the playback control authority can include at least one of the authority to control the playback of music content or the authority to generate and modify a music content list.

[0082] According to one embodiment, the first user can control the playback of music content by operating a part of the player or the controller 712 displayed on the display of the first user terminal 710. For example, the first user can pause the playback of the current music content by clicking or touching the pause icon, and can adjust the portion where the current music content is played by dragging the horizontal bar portion of the controller. Such playback control by the first user can be reflected in real time on the second user terminal 720 and the third user terminal 730. The second user with playback control authority can also control the content playback in the music content sharing room in a similar manner.

[0083] According to one embodiment, the playback control of the third user may not be reflected in all the participant user terminals 710, 720, 730 including the third user terminal 730. For example, even if the third user touches or clicks the pause icon displayed on the third user terminal, the user terminals of all the participants in the music content sharing room can continue to play the currently playing music content without change. Additionally or alternatively, the third user terminal 730 may not output at least a part of the controller 712 on the display of the third user terminal. For example, the third user terminal 730 may not display the pause icon that can control the playback of music content among the controllers 712 on the display.

[0084] FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a method in which voice chat data is transmitted, received, and played back among a plurality of user terminals 810, 830 and an information processing system 820 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. According to one embodiment, the first user terminal 810 can transmit first voice chat data 814 to the information processing system 820 in response to a voice input of a first user associated with the first user terminal. The first voice chat data 814 can include information about the first user in addition to the voice data of the first user. The voice chat data can be transmitted through a channel set between the first user terminal 810 and the information processing system 820, and this channel can be a channel separate from the channel through which music content data described later is transmitted.

[0085] The information processing system 820 can transmit the first voice chat data 822 to the user terminals of the participants excluding the first user (for example, the second user terminal). The first voice chat data 822 transmitted to the second user terminal 830 by the information processing system 820 may be the first voice chat data 814 from the first user terminal with additional data processing performed. For example, the first voice chat data 822 transmitted to the second user terminal 830 may be the first voice chat data 814 from the first user terminal with voice data from other user terminals mixed in. As an alternative, the first voice chat data 814, 822 may be directly transmitted to the user terminals of the participants without passing through the information processing system 820.

[0086] According to one embodiment, the second user terminal 830 can reproduce (832) at least a part of the received first voice chat data 822 simultaneously with (or by mixing with) at least a part of the music content data. In one embodiment, while the second user terminal 830 reproduces at least a part of the first voice chat data 822, it can reduce the reproduction volume of at least a part of the music content data.

[0087] In one embodiment, when there is a voice input (834) from the second user, the second user terminal 830 can transmit the second voice chat data 836 to the information processing system 820, and the information processing system 820 can transmit the second voice chat data 824 to the user terminals of the participants excluding the second user (for example, the first user terminal). The first user terminal 810 can reproduce (816) at least a part of the second voice chat data 824 simultaneously with (or by mixing with) the music content data in a manner similar to the process described above.

[0088] The above-described processes of transmitting, receiving, and playing voice chat data can be performed in real time whenever there is a voice chat among the participants in the music content sharing room. By transmitting and receiving music content and voice chat through separate channels and having the user terminal play them simultaneously (or mix them), the participants in the music content sharing room can enjoy high-quality music content together while having a voice chat at the same time.

[0089] FIG. 9 is a drawing showing an example in which a service combining the playback of music content and a voice chat according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is provided. According to one embodiment, the user terminal can display a player user interface 910 and a participant list interface 920 on the display. The player user interface 910 can include current music content, playback information, etc., and the participant list interface 920 can include a participant list, a profile photo 922 of each participant, a nickname 924, voice chat permissions 926, etc.

[0090] In one embodiment, the user can select the presence or absence of microphone activation (930) to determine whether to transmit voice chat data corresponding to the user's voice input. For example, when the user deactivates the microphone, the user terminal can deactivate the user's voice input or not transmit voice chat data even if voice input is detected. Additionally or alternatively, the host of the music content sharing room can determine or change the presence or absence of the user's microphone activation.

[0091] According to one embodiment, the user can operate the emoji control 940 to input or select an emoji. The user terminal can transmit emoji data corresponding to the user's emoji input or selection. Accordingly, the user terminals of all participants in the music content sharing room can output the emoji data and the corresponding emoji on the display in association with the user's profile photo or nickname. For example, in response to the first user clicking on an emoji with a 100-point pattern, the first user terminal associated with the first user can transmit the emoji data to the information processing system. The information processing system can transmit the emoji data to the user terminals (e.g., the second user terminal) of all participants in the music content sharing room. Here, the emoji data can additionally include user information (e.g., the first user information) of the user who transmitted the emoji data in addition to the information about the emoji. The second user terminal can display the emoji 928 with a 100-point pattern on a part of the profile photo of the first user based on the received emoji data.

[0092] According to one embodiment, the user can operate the invitation control (950) to invite other users to the currently participating music content sharing room. For example, the user terminal can send an invitation to participate or the like to other users who have joined the service according to the user's request. As another example, the user can transmit the URL address of the music content sharing room to other users who have not joined the service through an SNS application or the like.

[0093] In one embodiment, the user terminal can highlight the edge of the profile photo 922 of the target participant while the voice chat of the target participant is being played. For example, the first user terminal can display the edge of the second user's profile photo thickly or in a specific hue while the second user's voice chat is being played.

[0094] According to one embodiment, the user can block the voice chat of the target participant. For example, in response to the user selecting the target participant from the participant list, the user terminal may not receive the voice chat data of the target participant among the voice chat data, or play it excluding the voice chat data of the target participant.

[0095] FIG. 10 is a drawing showing an example of a method for requesting the playback of one or more music contents 1030 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In one embodiment, a participant in a music content sharing room can request the host to play one or more music contents 1030. The first user terminal associated with the participant can transmit one or more music contents 1030 for which playback has been requested to the information processing system in response to the request for playback of one or more music contents by the participant. Additionally, the first user terminal can transmit the participant information for which playback has been requested together. For example, the participant can click or touch the song selection recommendation icon in the participant list interface 1010 to view the list 1020 of playlists stored in the participant account. The participant can select a playlist for which playback is to be requested from among these, and the first user terminal can transmit the selected playlist to the information processing system in response.

[0096] According to one embodiment, the second user terminal associated with the host can receive one or more music contents 1030 for which playback has been requested, and the host can view this. The host can accept or reject the playback request of the participant. The second user terminal can add one or more music contents 1030 to the music content list in response to the input of the host accepting the playback request of the participant. Such a change to the music content list can be transmitted to the information processing system, and the information processing system can transmit the changed music content list data to the user terminals of all the participants in the music content sharing room. Accordingly, the change to the music content list can be reflected in the user terminals of all the participants.

[0097] FIG. 11 is a drawing showing an example of a method of participating in a music content sharing room related to target music content 1110 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In one embodiment, a user can request a music content sharing room list in which one or more pieces of target music content 1110 are included in a music content list. In response thereto, the user terminal can output a list 1120 of music content sharing rooms in which the target music content 1110 is included in the music content list. For example, as shown in the figure, the user can request a sharing room list that includes in the music content list a song that is currently being played or is on standby for playback on the player of the user terminal, and the user terminal can output the requested sharing room list. The list 1120 of music content sharing rooms in which the target music content 1110 is included in the music content list can be determined by a processor of the user terminal or a processor of an information processing system.

[0098] According to one embodiment, the user can select one of the output lists of music content sharing rooms and enter the corresponding room. Alternatively, the user can create a new music content sharing room that includes one or more pieces of target music content 1110 in the music content list and become the host of the created music content sharing room.
