FIG. 1 is a flow chart of the present invention.
Detailed Description
The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings so that those skilled in the art can implement the invention by referring to the description text.
It will be understood that terms such as "having," "including," and "comprising," as used herein, do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other elements or groups thereof.
In a technical solution, as shown in fig. 1, a method for saving upstream bandwidth traffic of a streaming media server includes:
receiving a channel watching request of a client, determining corresponding camera equipment according to the channel watching request, judging whether the camera equipment is online or not, if so, enabling a streaming media server to transmit streaming media data to the client, and if not, sending a stream pushing starting instruction to the camera equipment;
and acquiring the number of watching people of the channel on the streaming media server, and if the number of watching people is less than a preset value, stopping the stream pushing of the camera equipment corresponding to the channel to the streaming media server.
In the above technical solution, the camera device pushes a stream to the streaming media server, the streaming media server sends streaming media data to the client, and the user watches a video using the client. The streaming media server comprises a plurality of channels, and each channel corresponds to one camera device. The method comprises the steps that a user sends a watching request for a certain channel on a client, at the moment, whether a camera device corresponding to the channel is on line or not is judged, and if the camera device corresponding to the channel is on line, the streaming media server is directly enabled to send streaming media data to the client for the user to watch the channel. If the channel is not on line, a stream pushing starting instruction is sent to the camera equipment corresponding to the channel, so that the camera equipment starts stream pushing, and further the stream media server transmits stream media data to the client, so that the user watches the channel. The number of watching people of each channel on the streaming media server is obtained in real time, when the number of watching people is small, namely less than a preset value, the image pickup device stops pushing the stream to the streaming media server, the preset value is preferably 1, and the preset value can be determined according to actual conditions. Therefore, the technical scheme can avoid the flow generation under the condition that no user or few users watch videos, and reduce the flow cost.
In another technical solution, the method for saving upstream bandwidth traffic of a streaming media server further includes:
establishing an intermediate table, and adding camera equipment information capable of stopping plug flow in the intermediate table;
and reading the intermediate table at intervals of set time periods, and determining the camera equipment for stopping pushing the stream to the streaming media server according to the number of watching people of the channel on the streaming media server.
Among the above-mentioned technical scheme, camera equipment has the difference in the aspect of live priority, and some camera equipment need push stream in real time, and convenience of customers watches in real time, and some then do not need. And adding the camera equipment information which does not need real-time stream pushing in the intermediate table, so that the camera equipment stream pushing on the intermediate table can be stopped according to the number of the watching persons. The intermediate table is read at intervals of set time periods, and the camera equipment capable of stopping plug flow is conveniently obtained in real time.
In another technical solution, the method for saving upstream bandwidth traffic of a streaming media server further includes:
and if the information of a certain channel on the streaming media server cannot be acquired, stopping the stream pushing of the camera equipment corresponding to the channel to the streaming media server. And when the channel information on the streaming media server cannot be acquired, if the number of the watching persons indicates that the camera equipment is probably not on line, stopping the stream pushing operation of the camera equipment.
In another technical solution, the method for saving upstream bandwidth traffic of a streaming media server further includes:
and when the flow contained in the flow package of the camera equipment is not less than the preset flow threshold value, the camera equipment is not added into the intermediate table. Here, when the image pickup apparatus purchases the traffic and satisfies the plug flow requirement, the image pickup apparatus is not added to the intermediate table, and no instruction to stop the plug flow is made to the image pickup apparatus.
In another technical solution, the method for saving upstream bandwidth traffic of a streaming media server further includes:
and when the flow contained in the flow package of the camera equipment in the middle table is not less than the preset flow threshold value, moving the camera equipment out of the middle table. Here, when the image pickup apparatus in the intermediate table purchases the traffic and satisfies the plug flow requirement, the image pickup apparatus is moved out of the intermediate table so that the image pickup apparatus is no longer stopped from being pushed. .
In another technical solution, the method for saving upstream bandwidth traffic of a streaming media server further includes:
recording channel watching requests corresponding to all the camera devices within set historical time, counting time distribution of the channel watching requests every day, and determining a first time period, a second time period and a third time period;
intermittently stopping the plug flow of the image pickup apparatus at a first frequency for a first period of time, intermittently stopping the plug flow of the image pickup apparatus at a second frequency for a second period of time, and intermittently stopping the plug flow of the image pickup apparatus at a third frequency for a third period of time;
the first time period, the second time period and the third time period are updated once a day;
the first time period is a time period in which the average request frequency in the set historical time accounts for 80% of the average total request frequency per day, the second time period is a time period in which the average request frequency in the set historical time accounts for 60-80% of the average total request frequency per day, the third time period is the rest time period, the first frequency is smaller than the second frequency, and the second frequency is smaller than the third frequency.
The technical scheme provides a further preferable scheme for limiting the plug flow of the camera equipment, and preferably aims at sunshine catering, the watching demands of the user on each camera of the restaurant are different, and the watching time of the user on each camera of the restaurant is different. And counting channel watching requests within the set historical time, and determining a first time period, a second time period and a third time period according to the distribution of the requests. And stopping the plug flow intermittently in the first time period, the second time period and the third time period, wherein the time for stopping the plug flow every time is the same, and the stop frequency is different, and the stop frequency refers to the number of times of stopping in one hour. The first time period and the second time period are respectively the time of 80% of the request demand and the time period of 60-80%, the third time period is the rest time period, and the first time period, the second time period and the third time period all take 60 minutes, 30 minutes and the like as the minimum segments. The technical scheme can push the flow according to the actual needs of the user, further reduces unnecessary push flow and reduces flow waste.
The invention also provides a device for saving the upstream bandwidth flow of the streaming media server based on the same inventive concept as the method for saving the upstream bandwidth flow of the streaming media server, which comprises the following steps: a processor; a memory storing executable instructions; wherein the processor is configured to execute the executable instructions to perform the method for saving upstream bandwidth traffic of the streaming media server.
