Abstract

Cette invention concerne un système de télévision privé et un procédé permettant la mise en place d'un tel système sur Internet. Le système de télévision privée comprend un TSS-PC, un serveur de gestion et un PC à distance. Le TSS-PC comprend une carte de réception TV et une carte de réseau local pour recevoir un signal TV, le TSS-PC est équipé d'un logiciel de compression/transmission pour transformer les diffusions télévisuelles en fichiers d'images animées puis pour compresser et transmettre ces fichiers d'images animées. Le serveur gestionnaire est connecté au TSS-PC par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau, il reçoit les informations de réseau du TSS-PC parmi lesquelles l'adresse MAC et l'adresse IP puis il stocke les informations de réseau reçues avec les informations personnelles. Le PC à distance est connecté à un réseau afin de recevoir les informations de réseau parmi lesquelles l'adresse MAC et l'adresse IP transmises par le serveur de gestion (20). Le PC à distance comprend un logiciel de réception/reproduction pour permettre à un utilisateur de regarder une diffusion télévisuelle par commande du logiciel de compression/transmission.
