Embodiment
Below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in the embodiment of the invention, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the invention is clearly and completely described, obviously, described embodiment only is the present invention's part embodiment, rather than whole embodiment.Based on the embodiment among the present invention, those of ordinary skills belong to the scope of protection of the invention not making all other embodiment that obtained under the creative work prerequisite.
For the advantage that makes technical solution of the present invention is clearer, the present invention is elaborated below in conjunction with drawings and Examples.
Embodiment one
Present embodiment provides a kind of EPG acquisition methods, and as shown in Figure 1, described method comprises:
101, judge whether EPG has renewal, as if EPG renewal is arranged, then execution in step 102-103; If EPG does not upgrade, then execution in step 104.
102, carrying out EPG when system standby downloads.
103, the EPG information write-in memory that download is obtained.
Wherein, described EPG information specifically can comprise the information of each TV programme, for example: information such as program broadcasting time, programm name, programme content brief introduction.Described memory can be the Flash memory, but is not limited only to this.
104, do not carry out the download of EPG.
Embodiment of the invention EPG acquisition methods judges at first whether EPG has renewal, when EPG has renewal, when system standby, carries out EPG and downloads, and the EPG information write-in memory that download is obtained.Compared with prior art, system can finish the download of EPG automatically when standby, owing to do not take user's viewing time, thus can facilitate for the user watches TV programme; When the user need check EPG, system can directly show by calling EPG information in the memory, thereby can shorten opening the time of EPG.
Embodiment two
As shown in Figure 2, described EPG acquisition methods comprises:
201, set in advance the time point that carries out the EPG download.
Optionally, can set in advance and carry out at least two time points that EPG downloads, set time point is generally the user and is not watching TV Festival object time.In the present embodiment, set in advance three time points: morning a bit, two o'clock in the morning, mornings three point.
