Multimedia Ring Back Tone Personalization via Dynamic Text Overlay
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current multimedia ring back tone services lack flexibility and personalization, as users cannot dynamically modify the text or media content, limiting their ability to customize the experience according to their preferences or changing requirements.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that allows users to customize second media content based on first media content, enabling synthesis and playback of streaming media that incorporates user-input or user-configured text, audio, or video elements, tailored to specific callers or time periods, enhancing personalization and interactivity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If text descriptions are added to video files at one time during preparation, then the video ring back tone service can be delivered, but the text in the video files becomes static and cannot be modified dynamically by users
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the ring back tone service into separate video content and text description components. The video file and text description are stored as independent entities in the database, allowing users to modify text descriptions without replacing the entire video file. This segmentation enables dynamic modification while maintaining service functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements dynamic modification capability by allowing users to change text descriptions at any time after service subscription. The system retrieves updated text descriptions from the database during service delivery, enabling the text content to be dynamically modified without affecting the video file structure or requiring service re-subscription.
2Adaptability or versatility
If users can customize media content dynamically, then personalization requirements are met, but the system complexity increases due to additional customization logic and storage requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal customization framework where users can select from multiple media types (video, audio, text) and customize various parameters (content, duration, timing). The same database structure and retrieval logic handle different media types and customization options, reducing overall system complexity through multi-functionality.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent uses template-based customization where pre-defined media templates and text description templates are stored in the database. Users customize by selecting and modifying parameters of existing templates rather than creating content from scratch, reducing system complexity while enabling extensive personalization options.

AI summary
Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method and system for implementing a multimedia ring back tone service. The method comprises: establishing a connection to a multimedia ring back tone platform when it is determined that either the calling party or the called party of a call is a user to the multimedia ring back tone service during call connection, and completing a media capability negotiation between a calling terminal and the multimedia ring back tone platform; acquiring a first media content and a second media content according to a multimedia ring back tone information of the user, and generating a streaming media from the first media content and the second media content; and playing the streaming media to the calling party. The present invention is capable of further improving existing multimedia ring back tone techniques to better meet the communication users' requirement for personalization.
