Embodiment
See also shown in Figure 1ly, the network television system 100 of preferred embodiments of the present invention comprises server 10 and playback terminal 20.Server 10 is used for to playback terminal program being provided; Playback terminal 20 comprises receiving system 21; Playing device 23 is set up virtual playlist in order to each program according to the program source; And the program of the separate sources in this virtual playlist interlinked according to theme so that playback terminal 20 can be according to the program fast selecting program of originating, and link that can be through the same subject program fast in selected theme select programs play.
Server 10 comprises memory 11 and database 13.Said memory 11 reaches the link of setting up according to program subject matter in order to the virtual playlist that storage receiving system 21 generates.Database 13 provides the program resource to playback terminal 20 in order to storage, like existing network TV resources such as YouTube, PPS, QQLive and DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting, DVB) etc.
Playback terminal 20 comprises receiving system 21, playing device 23 and control module 25; Said receiving system 21 generates virtual playlist and each program is set up link according to theme in order to obtain program and the corresponding program that obtains from server 10; Control module 25 is in order to virtual playlist of operating said generation and the link of setting up according to theme, the program that playing device 23 is chosen in order to broadcast.
Receiving system 21 is a STB in embodiment of the present invention, comprises source tabulation generation module 211, descriptor tabulation generation module 212, playlist generation module 213 and sending module 214.
Said source tabulation generation module 211 is originated in order to obtain different programs, and sets up the source tabulation according to the program source, is resent to playlist generation module 213.This source tabulation generation module 211 is also set one " my favorite (Favorite) " source, in order to set the program that surpasses certain rating duration.In addition, the user also can set putting in order that each is originated in the tabulation of said source through control module 25.
Existing network TV program source generally includes: YouTube, PPS, QQLive (YouTube, PPS and QQLive are the Web TV platform) and DVB-S (Digital Video Broadcasting-Satellite, digital satellite broadcasting) etc.After source tabulation generation module 211 obtains above-mentioned separate sources, set up one and comprise that above-mentioned source reaches the source tabulation in " Favorite " source, each source put in order during the user can tabulate according to the source that individual use habit adjustment generates.As: if the user uses Favorite the most frequent usually; Be PPS, YouTube, DVB-S and QQLive etc. then successively; The user can set putting in order of said each source through operation playback terminal 20, and Favorite is listed in first, PPS, YouTube, DVB-S and QQLive etc. be arranged in order in after; So that when the user chooses separate sources, can choose program source commonly used as soon as possible.
The programme information that said descriptor tabulation generation module 212 is used for providing according to server 10 extracts descriptor; Perhaps directly obtain the descriptor in the program that server 10 provides; And with the descriptor generation descriptor tabulation of obtaining; Be sent to playlist generation module 213 then; Program will have the separate sources of same subject through playlist generation module 213 interlinks, and in other programs of the theme of the program of being watched, chooses favorite program so that the user can be easily and fast.
Playlist generation module 213 is set up virtual playlist according to the source tabulation that receives, and links in the virtual broadcast message class table according to the source with each program that server 10 is provided.This playlist generation module 213 also interlinks the program in the virtual playlist according to theme, so that the program that has same subject in the virtual playlist is set up link.
After said playlist generation module 213 receives the source tabulation; The source tabulation that correspondence receives generates a virtual playlist: the program in Youtube source all is positioned under the subdirectory in this source of Youtube; The program in PPS source all is positioned under the subdirectory in this source of PPS; The program in QQLive source all is positioned under the subdirectory of QQLive ... thus the different programs in same source are summarized under the same subdirectory; And can the program under the same subdirectory be set up selectable link each other so that the user can be in this virtual playlist select programs under same source easily.
After said playlist generation module 213 received the descriptor tabulation, the different programs that the corresponding descriptor tabulation that receives will have same subject were linked.As: will all link to together from the I sports program of YouTube, the sports channel of DVB-S etc.; The movie program of PPS, the movie channel of DVB-S, the movie program of QQLive are all linked to together ... so; When the user watches a certain program, can be through link select programs from other programs identical fast with this program subject matter.
In addition; The also preset rating duration of this playlist generation module 213; When detecting playback terminal 20 and watch that continuously the duration of a certain program surpasses above-mentioned preset rating duration; This playlist generation module 213 automatically links to this program under the Favorite source subdirectory of source in the programme, likes the program watched so that the user can choose down from the Favorite source faster.
Sending module 214 is in order to virtual playlist to the playing device 23 with generation, and to show through playing device 23, the user can pass through the virtual playlist select programs that control module 25 shows on playing device 23.
Playing device 23 is an existing Web TV, in order to playing the resource that receives from receiving system 21, and the program chosen of transmit control module 25.
Please consult Fig. 2 in the lump, control module 25 is used to operate virtual playlist and fast link to the program with same subject, with program of choosing broadcast etc.Concrete, this control module 25 can be receiving system 21 incidental external remote controllers, also can be the control button on the receiving system 21, can also be that receiving system 21 itself exists the perhaps touch control module of external connection.In embodiment of the present invention, this control module 25 is one to be independent of receiving system 21 remote controller is set, and numeric keypad 251, induction zone 253, source switch key 255, theme associated key 257 and channel increasing-and-decreasing key 259 are set on it.Said numeric keypad 251 is in order to keying in numeral, with input television channel to be play or authentication information of personal account etc.Induction zone 253 can be discerned the iris of fingerprint or human eye etc., in order to input personal account authentication information.When source switch key 255 is used to program and chooses, can between different source programs, switch, with the program of in virtual playlist, confirming fast to choose.Theme associated key 257 links to other program current playing program, that have same subject in order to access.Channel increasing-and-decreasing key 259 is used to switch on the basis of current selected channel a last channel or next channel, the perhaps select programs in the program that is linked that theme associated key 257 accesses in the virtual playlist.
In embodiment of the present invention, but said control module 25 and receiving system 21 both the both be built in the playing device 23, can be independent of playing device 23 setting again respectively.
