Wherein, described minimum system initialization step is finished the initialization of register to main control module inside version, IO interface, outer wall memory, for the operation of system program provides most basic platform.Described selection user login step enters custom system for the operator according to user name and entry password.Initialization selected user application function correlation module is used to load the function of this user to usefulness.
Existing relatively set-top-box system, the present invention has following advantage:
1. realized multi-user operation.And the user of different rights can be set as required, and highest weight limits the use of the family can control system all functions and service, and each user can apply for certain authority to the keeper according to the hobby of oneself.This has a great deal of practical meanings in Modern Family, and for example the head of a family can limit child's TV reception, and it is its power of watching of opening some specific program that child can require the head of a family.2. guaranteed the fail safe of system.Along with the development of Digital Television, the integrated function of set-top box also gets more and more, and corresponding operation is also more complicated, and for the ordinary family user, once Cuo Wu operation may cause set-top box normally to use.The present invention gives the user who is familiar with the manipulator top box with the highest weight limit, can guarantee that this system can not influence normal use because of misoperation.
3. reduce the available machine time of set-top box.Traditional start process is once to load all function services, therefore can expend a large amount of time, because the application's designed system only starts the function service of authority that the specific user has in start process, so the concrete available machine time will reduce, the concrete time will decide on the service that the user has an authority, but maximum duration also can not surpass starting up's time of keeper, the i.e. available machine time of existing system.
Description of drawings
Accompanying drawing 1 starts flow chart for existing set-top-box system;
Accompanying drawing 2 starts flow chart for set-top-box system of the present invention.
Embodiment
For the ease of those skilled in the art's understanding, structural principle of the present invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with specific embodiment and accompanying drawing:
As shown in Figure 2, the multi-user set-top box system that this programme discloses comprises main control module, register and be connected in external memory storage on the main control module, the IO interface, demodulator, decoder module, the CA card, in the set-top-box system main control module, be provided with user's logging program module, in user's logging program module, be provided with a plurality of custom systems, in this system, the user of different rights can be set as required, give the highest weight limit as set top box operations being familiar with the kinsfolk, be the administrator, the administrator has all functions that this set-top box can provide, and can create domestic consumer and distribute its rights of using; And for domestic consumer, the function and the service of can only use and management person giving when this domestic consumer has other demands to require to increase its available functions, can be applied for to the keeper, and the keeper gets final product for its increase respective application.
During startup, in order to improve toggle speed, this set-top-box system setting up procedure is followed successively by: beginning, minimum system initialization, selection user login, initialization selected user application function correlation module, startup are finished, and details are as follows:
