Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments, the IPTV STB/unicast seamless handover method based on Real-time Transport Protocol of the present invention is described further.
Before the IPTV STB/unicast seamless handover method based on Real-time Transport Protocol of the present invention is described, at first application scenarios of the present invention is described.
As shown in Figure 1, the equipment that relates in the IPTV system of of the present invention group/clean culture seamless handover method comprises terminal equipment 1, business router 2, Control Server 3 and media server 4.
Wherein, terminal equipment 1 is used for receiving multimedia data and decoding and displaying, supports the audio/video decoding of multiple form, as display device, as user input device, can realize man-machine interaction with remote controller with TV.
Business router 2 can be realized the control to multicast packet, has the data forwarding function.
Control Server 3 is used for carrying out Signalling exchange with terminal equipment 1, and url of the IP address in multicast packet source and port, unicast data etc. is provided.
Media server 4 is multi-medium data sources, is used to realize the transmission of multicast and unicast data.
The user adopts the multicast push technology when watching the real-time television program, can guarantee making full use of of bandwidth, and when the user need watch, the multicast address that only needs to add certain program correspondence got final product.In the process of televiewing, if when the user needs interactive operation such as time-out, redirect or rewind down, need withdraw from multicast, realize user's demand by unicast technique.In the clean culture process; the user can operate (being F.F., rewind down, time-out or redirect) arbitrary program of watching the former time point that is recorded in server end by VCR; if during user's F.F.; time point catch up with the current real time programme time; when perhaps the user need continue to watch real time programme; will withdraw from clean culture, add the multicast address of current channel correspondence.Between the conversion of multicast and clean culture, should guarantee the seamless switching of multicast and clean culture.Described seamless switching comprises and takes over seamlessly and switch fast.Taking over seamlessly is exactly will be in handoff procedure, and the continuity of picture before and after guaranteeing to switch will guarantee that promptly this two-way of multicast and clean culture flows the integrality of program stream data in handoff procedure.The integrality of program stream data is embodied in two aspects: the one, and the integrality of the content of each frame, the 2nd, in handoff procedure, do not lack frame.In order to guarantee to take over seamlessly, the present invention comes synchronous two-way stream by the timestamp that compares in multicast data flow and the unicast stream.Because the data volume of frame of video is bigger, in transmission course, divide a plurality of packets to do transmission possibly, if in the handoff procedure of multicast data flow and unicast stream, when receiving the order that stops to receive, terminal equipment stops receiving stream-oriented data immediately, then cause the imperfect of last Frame of receiving possibly, therefore must guarantee that in the end frame data stop receiving stream-oriented data after complete again, have so just guaranteed the integrality of the content of each frame.Do in the process of switching in multicast data flow and unicast stream, if be less than time of the last frame of receiving in the multicast procedures to the zero-time of server request slip multicast data, when receiving unicast data, judge the timestamp of the data that receive then, if timestamp more than or equal to the last frame of receiving in the multicast procedures, then these data are abandoned, show otherwise send into decoder decode, so just guaranteed not lacking of Frame.
IPTV STB/unicast seamless handover method of the present invention is based on Real-time Transport Protocol, and the packet header of RTP packet is made up of 16 bytes, mainly comprises fields such as data type PT, time stamp T imeStamp, sequence number SeqNumber.For the uniqueness of identification data frame, among the present invention the stamp of 32 bit times in the RTP data packet head is extended for 64, its data packet format is as shown in Figure 2.
IPTV STB/unicast seamless handover method based on Real-time Transport Protocol of the present invention comprises that multicast changes clean culture and two aspects of multicast are changeed in clean culture, and wherein, the seamless handover method that multicast changes clean culture specifically may further comprise the steps:
Step 10, terminal equipment 1 are accepted multicast packet from media server 4, decoded data in the decoder in terminal equipment 1, and play;
Step 11, terminal equipment 1 receive the multicast that the user sends and change the clean culture order in playing process, suspend the decoding of decoder;
Step 12, judge whether last frame that terminal equipment 1 receives from media server 4 is complete, if complete, execution in step 14, otherwise, execution in step 13;
Step 13, last frame of receiving are imperfect, continue to receive multicast packet, re-execute step 12 then;
Step 14, last frame of receiving are complete, send to media server 4 and withdraw from multicast request, and media server 4 stops to send multicast data flow, withdraws from multicast;
Step 15, to the uniform resource locator (url) of Control Server 3 request clean cultures;
If the order that step 16, monitoring users send after listening to play command, recovers decoder;
Step 17, to media server 4 request unicast datas, the zero-time of unicast data is less than the time of the last frame of receiving in the multicast procedures;
When step 18, reception unicast data, judge the timestamp of the data that receive, the timestamp as if more than or equal to the last frame of receiving in the multicast procedures then abandons this unicast data, shows otherwise unicast data is sent into decoder decode.
Multicast changes clean culture multiple possible situation, and Fig. 3 has described the processing to suspending in multicast procedures, is that example is briefly set forth the process that multicast changes clean culture with it, and concrete steps are as follows:
Step 300:, add the multicast group of current channel correspondence when the user watches real-time television.
Step 301: receiving multicast data, send into decoder decode, and play.
Step 302: the key assignments of in playing process, monitoring remote controller.
Step 303: judge that the key assignments of receiving is to be our required key assignments to be processed
Step 304: judge whether its key assignments is Pause key, is then to enter the time-out handling process, otherwise enter other event handling flow processs.
Step 305: suspend decoder decode.
Step 306: because frame of video is bigger, divide a plurality of packets to pass to terminal, need therefore to judge whether last frame of receiving is complete, to guarantee not lacking of data.
Step 307:, continue to receive multicast packet if last frame of receiving is imperfect.
Step 308: if last Frame of receiving is complete, then sends and withdraw from multicast request, withdraw from multicast
Step 309: to the clean culture url of this channel correspondence of server requests.
Step 310: the key assignments that continues to monitor remote controller.
Step 311: judge whether the key assignments of receiving is broadcast.
Step 312: if the key assignments of receiving then recovers decoder for playing.
Step 313: suspend the back unicast data according to the last frame data time request of receiving.For data are kept continuously, we when the server request for data, make before suspending multicast packet and suspend back some repetition of multicast packet, guarantee that data do not have to lose.
Step 314: the timestamp deletion multicast according to the Frame of receiving changes repeating data frame in the clean culture process.
Step 315: receive unicast data, and send into the decoder decode demonstration.
In the process of from suspending to recovering, playing, do not abandon the received audio, video data of multicast procedures, but make full use of prior data, Yi Bian receive new data then in terminal buffers, data in buffer is delivered to decoder decode on one side and show, to reach a kind of effect of quick switching.
Change clean culture with multicast and compare, lower in the process of clean culture commentaries on classics multicast to the requirement of seamless switching, do not need to guarantee the integrality of data frame content and the integrality of Frame.The method that multicast is changeed in clean culture may further comprise the steps:
Terminal equipment 1 in step 20, the IPTV system is accepted unicast data from media server 4, decoded data and broadcast in the decoder in terminal equipment 1;
The order that step 21, terminal equipment 1 monitoring users send receives that clean culture is changeed to send after the order of multicast to withdraw from unitcast request;
Step 22, terminal equipment 1 receive the multicast address of current channel correspondence from Control Server 3;
Step 23, decoder enter the normal play state;
Step 24, terminal equipment 1 receiving multicast data, and decoding and displaying.
In actual applications, it is less that multicast changes the applicable cases of clean culture, the process that Fig. 4 changes multicast when catching up with real time programme when having described in clean culture process F.F., and concrete steps are as follows:
Step 400: send unitcast request, the request unicast data.
Step 401: receive unicast data, send into decoder decode and show.
Step 402: the key assignments of in playing process, monitoring remote controller.
Step 403: judge whether the key assignments of receiving is required special keys to be processed.
Step 404: judge whether key assignments is fast forward button,, otherwise enter other special keys handling processes if fast forward button then enters the F.F. handling process.
Step 405: if fast forward button then is made as decoder the pattern of only broadcasting key frame (I frame).
Step 406: needed data in server end request F.F. process.
Step 407: play thread and wait for, when F.F. caught up with real time programme, server notification added the message of multicast.
Step 408: receive the data in the F.F. process, and send into the decoder decode demonstration.
Step 409: judge whether to receive that server notification adds the message of multicast, then carry out next step, otherwise continue to receive unicast data as if receiving.
Step 410: after terminal equipment 1 is received and added multicast message, send and withdraw from unitcast request.
Step 411: terminal equipment 1 receives the multicast address of current channel correspondence from Control Server 3.
Step 412: decoder is reverted to the normal play state.
Step 413: terminal equipment 1 receiving multicast data, and decoding and displaying.
