SERVER, SYSTEM AND METHOD THAT PROVIDING ADDITIONAL CONTENTS
First Claim
1. A content providing system for providing an additional content, the content providing system comprising:
- a server for multiplexing a second content with a first content which is streaming-transmitted, and streaming-transmitting, to a terminal, a mixed content produced by multiplexing the second content with the first content; and
the terminal for receiving the mixed content, demultiplexing the mixed content to separate the second content from the first content, streaming-reproducing the first content, and storing the separated second content therein.

Abstract
Disclosed is a server, a system, and a method for providing additional content simultaneously with main content. The system includes: a server for multiplexing a second content with a first content which is streaming-transmitted, and streaming-transmitting, to a terminal, a mixed content produced by multiplexing the second content with the first content; and the terminal for receiving the mixed content, demultiplexing the mixed content to separate the second content from the first content, streaming-reproducing the first content, and storing the separated second content therein. Accordingly, the system does not need a configuration of another system for providing additional content, which presents separate conditions for providing the additional content and determines if the separate conditions are satisfied. Namely, if a condition for receiving only a particular period of the particular content is satisfied, a user of the terminal can receive and use the additional content along with the particular content.

17. A content providing method for providing an additional content which transmits both a first content transmitted in a data stream and a second content corresponding to the additional content from a server to a terminal, the content providing method comprising the steps of:
-
1) inquiring and checking if the first content and the second content are stored in the terminal by the server; 2) transmitting, to the terminal, a part of the second content corresponding to a stored part of the first content when the part of the first content is stored in the terminal but the second content is not stored therein; 3) multiplexing a remaining part of the second content corresponding to a remaining part of the first content with the remaining part of the first content not stored in the terminal, and producing a mixed content, when a part of the first content and the second content corresponding to the part of the first content are stored in the terminal; 4) transmitting the mixed content to the terminal; and 5) receiving the mixed content, demultiplexing the mixed content to separate the remaining part of the second content from the remaining part of the first content, combining the part of the first content with the remaining part of the first content, combining the part of the second content with the remaining part of the second content, and storing therein the first content and the second content, by the terminal. - View Dependent Claims (19)

18. A content providing method for providing an additional content which transmits both a first content transmitted in a data stream and a second content corresponding to the additional content from a server to a terminal, the content providing method comprising the steps of:
-
1) inquiring and checking if the first content and the second content are stored in the terminal by the server; 2) multiplexing the entire second content with a remaining part of the first content not stored in the terminal, and producing a mixed content, when the part of the first content is stored in the terminal but the second content is not stored therein; 3) transmitting the mixed content to the terminal; and 4) receiving the mixed content, demultiplexing the mixed content to separate the second content from the remaining part of the first content, and storing therein both the first content produced by combining the part of the first content with the remaining part of the first content and the second content, by the terminal. - View Dependent Claims (20)
