In addition, most foreign TV festivals, digital TV operators and Internet service providers are also unable to provide a second foreign language in their mother tongue. For example, in the case of Asian Americans, it is difficult to collect TV programs in Asia. (clientwer ^ τΐ;;ι:; :r download the complete video file. 〃 a & user will be able to take the TV from the word ί=2^:= 统ιρ赖之晴TV money. This traditional 1p network ===?:_户. However, if the user of the Internet TV system 13 is located at the user side of the Korean manufacturer 14 and the user user I5 located at the end of the user 200913563, they also want to watch through the TV program center n respectively. The TV program of its native language 'but the sequel to the Internet TV Wei 1G New Zealand is based on different language __ the different language programs of the system, so it can not meet the needs of users. In the prior art, US Patent No. 5,027,400 An image-passing/two-way broadcasting system is proposed (an _ge communication fine recti〇nalization (10), a multi-frequency digital network (10)N), a cable operator, or even an advertising, commercial two-way broadcasting system. In order to meet the different needs of users for TV programs, this invention still cannot provide anytime, anywhere services, such as providing relevant TV programs when users go abroad. The first patent of the US patent, the irony number, was published. (Secret (4), 疋 - Broadcast (Unicast) TV program content, in which each - multiple broadcast or single broadcast will be transmitted in multiple pass or single-broadcast mode + data packets (dataPackets), the wrong way to deliver to The user, although this is the time when the side of the terminal is special, the special function of the coffee is ^me-shlftlng feature), „ M 9 ^ is in the beauty of the cutting technique _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ^^(^ti-channe»# . t<f ( telecommunication)^# - «To meet the needs of the phone, the phone.' However, the purpose of this invention is only to provide the remote screen to local TV programs. When people subscribe to TV programs, they usually want to watch the program. 'But local TV program providers can't satisfy this kind of system. It's really for users. The TV program transmission system that can be watched by the Internet can be used in the industry. The problem that is urgently needed to be solved. t·1-于, [Summary of the Invention] In order to solve the lack of the prior art, the present system uses an IP network cable, and the video transmission system using the p network is realized. , including at least one TV program provider, 20 0913563 A TV program for a plurality of channels, and at least one agent at the ship terminal, responsible for converting electricity and programs into complex video and audio content, characterized in that the above-mentioned agent miscellaneous--a broadcast network ί, digit (4) Neigu to the authorized end of the Xianhu, the authorized user in the good end is the subscriber of the TV program provider, has the right to watch these TV programs. According to the above IP network technology TV program transmission The system can be a ρ2ρ network that contains at least one well-known servo H ( vide. Head-end server ), at least one transporting ship (5) ay said e small at least one seed host (seedhost), a plurality of user hosts (peei_^. you), at least one network management server (netW〇rkmanagement bribe er) and At least one system manages the feeding device (the claws ^amgemem server). The head-end feeding device is configured to receive a plurality of digits converted from a television program, such as a valley and a head ir, and the feeding device includes a film splitter for cutting each digital video into a plurality of The image storage 'enzyme-audio sound is composed of a plurality of picture groups (transfer #P coffee res, GOPs), and the head end server further includes at least one program β storage device (two shouting ntrepository) Store a video slot that corresponds to a digital audio and video content. Among them, the AV building that receives the above-mentioned head-end feeding device is transported, and the video building is broadcasted from the transmission server. Among them, the seed host, _ receives the video files from the transmitting ship, and broadcasts these video slots from the seed domain. The user host enables the authorized user to receive the video files transmitted from the seed host or other user hosts in the vicinity, and broadcast the video files. The network management of the towel network (10) manages the transmission of data and signals between the seed host and the user host (dataandsignaleGm job (4) coffee), and the network management server includes at least one tracker, according to the authorized user Requests for use of the AV building to generate a - seed/user list. The system management vehicle can verify the authentication and authorization of each authorized user when receiving the access request from the authorized user. It causes each client to include a player for playing the video files. According to the television program transmission system architecture of the above IP network technology, a broadcast network is provided, which includes a broadcasting apparatus for storing and broadcasting the digital audio and video content, and a plurality of players 'via audio and video The way of streaming (vide〇streaming) allows an authorized user of the client to receive digital audio and video content from the broadcast device via the player. The broadcaster package 200913563 includes a time zone shifling means, a time zone non-adjuster (n〇n-shmingmeans), a language selector (aianguageselectingmeans), and a user setter (amerprofllemeans). The time zone adjuster can adjust the TV program to be broadcasted in the original overseas broadcast. The place where the user and the user listen to the place are located, and the digital audio and video content is transmitted to the player according to the viewing time of each authorized user. The time zone non-adjuster is configured to transmit the corresponding audio and video content to the player in an almost instantaneous manner (q-), and the digital audio and video content transmitted by the broadcast device to the player is controlled to be tolerable time delay. Within the scope. Among them, the language selection benefits can be provided by the digital language produced by the language in accordance with the language surface of the user on the touch device. The towel setter can be used to collect and analyze the data of the 11th in the event of each leak, and the user profile is given. The main object of the present invention is to provide a television program delivery system that includes a network program to include an agent to a plurality of television programs of a television program provider === Jing (10), and _ For the negotiator, use the == target provider's contact and _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ ... on the server side) is to provide a kind of TV program that enables the mp network to realize the system, in which several digital imaging agents convert Γ曰*, 'Provide these digital audio and video content to the authorized use of the agent====Subscribe the content of the above TV program to the TV program provider to solve the problem that the user cannot watch the local program abroad. [Embodiment] The present invention provides a method for converting digital video and television programs into digital audio and video content, and the video transmission system is played by the network by C_UnieatiGn), which has been the side technology leader. , no longer a complete description.
