Description

A kind of digital television interaction application program navigation system
Technical field
The present invention relates to digital TV field, be specifically related to a kind of digital television interaction application program navigation system.
Background technology
TV program guide is a basic function of interactive TV, is interactive television system provides main service interface from all kinds of business to the user.Along with the increase of all kinds of value-added services of interactive TV, and the user is to the raising of service request, and interactive TV service provider must use by development interface program navigating friendly more, that function is more powerful.Therefore, need to build supporting front end TV programme application service system, be used for the required various information of broadcast items navigation application.This category information comprises look ﹠ feel form, professional column definition, channel configuration information or the like.
The system and method for program navigating has experienced constantly brings forth new ideas and develops, and TV program guide grows a lot, and can use by the program navigating that network upgrade interface information, makes more horn of plenty of function, and essential element has:
Homepage has the video of many pictures to be selected, and can check corresponding video program information;
Electronic program guide (EPG) information is divided into Digital Television and 2 parts of digital music, and can sub-categoryly show;
Have program reminding function is set;
Inlet with interactive application;
Has interactive TV service provider release of service;
But releasing advertisements;
Most elements can be upgraded by network in the interface, and the programme information in the interface reads from standard SI information, upgrades at any time; Release of service and advertisement can be passed through more new configuration file of network; The content of many picture videos can be selected to change by revising video channel; The classification of electronic program guide (EPG) information can show that the channel that channel classification title and classification comprise can upgrade by network according to channel classification.
Because above each dvielement can be configured by broadcasting end, configuration information issues by network in the object carousel mode, and each set-top-box opening is network resource search again all, and each element promptly may be updated as what be new.
But the program navigating that this set-top box application mode realizes still has a lot of restrictions.Such as the content that can only change picture, can not change the size and the position of picture, can not change the logical relation of application.
Summary of the invention
Digital television interaction application program navigation system in the embodiment of the invention is based on mark-up language technique, gives operator's operation interface more flexibly.
In order to realize goal of the invention, the embodiment of the invention discloses a kind of digital television interaction application program navigation system, comprising:
Configuration module is used for relevant configuration information is output into making language document, TXT file and gif file;
Editor module is used to provide with a visual editor;
Auditing module is used to allow set-top box visit audit catalogue, obtains to use all required parameters, and be presented on the terminal interface, make the auditor can detect actual interfacial effect, the data after confirming through the auditor just can be published to broadcast in the module and broadcast;
Release module is used for supporting timing issue and manual issue dual mode, and the data of issue will notify the broadcast module to obtain transaction file;
Broadcast module, be used for the data of determining broadcast are carried out the object carousel encapsulation, and on broadcast channel, play.
Described configuration module provides the configuration of advertisement picture; The editor of horse race lamp content is provided; The configuration of weather forecast information is provided; The configuration of channel station symbol is provided; The configuration of nine picture bit streams is provided.
The present invention has the following advantages: digital television interaction application program navigation system is based on mark-up language technique, gives operator's operation interface more flexibly.Need not to carry out the software upgrading of set-top box, just can will use required various information to program navigating and be configured by network update mark language configuration file.Terminal set top box realizes that by reading the configuration file in the network look ﹠ feel shows flexibly.The auditor can check the change of the look ﹠ feel and the configuration information of program navigating in advance by set-top box.Can support the demonstration one by one of many picture videos, and carry out convergent-divergent by a certain percentage, and be equipped with corresponding program recommendation information.Can support digital video programs to comprise seven days electronics programme informations of today today backward.In seven days electronic program guides, the setting that can remind and pre-record program.When program is provided with prompting, clash, will eject and remind the conflict prompting frame to supply user's selection if establish the prompting program with oneself.When setting is pre-recorded to program, clash, ejection is pre-recorded the conflict prompting frame for user's selection if establish the program of pre-recording with oneself.When pre-recording, can support the classification of pre-recording, will pre-record program storage in suitable classification.Can support horse race lamp formula scrolling information bar, the issue important announcement.The user selects to want recorded program by checking program navigating information, is set to pre-recording; The user is not provided with pre-recording, when seeing highlight, and can be by the function of real-time recording, program recording immediately.
