Description

Adopt the IPTV system of the related EPG of UI system
Technical field
The present invention relates to the Web TV field, be specifically related to a kind of IPTV system.
Background technology
Interactive television (IPTV) is an infrastructure of utilizing broadband cabled TV, as main terminal appliance, the multiple digital media service that comprises TV programme is provided through the Internet agreement with domestic television set.User side IPTV generally includes two kinds of clients: a kind of is the computer with IPTV function, and another kind is STB and TV.
EPG is the important component part in the IPTV system.EPG provides the human-computer interaction interface of being made up of literal, figure, figure through video screen to the user, is responsible for the navigation of TV programme and miscellaneous service; The user can understand the relevant information (comprising Pgmtime, reproduction time, content outline etc.) of program through electric program menu, and realizes quick retrieval and visit to program, carries out operations such as channel selection or video request program.The formation of existing EPG mainly relies on existing TV operator, the EPG content before the screening of receiving terminal STB is presented in user plane is arranged, the interactivity of limited subscriber and the selection that freely customizes; And because the EPG content that provides only is confined to the content of existing TV network, do not support communication or Internet service, thereby limitation EPG content can not have in the Internet or the popularity of communication service content, and lack to the experience of multimedia communication service.
Summary of the invention
The object of the present invention is to provide the IPTV system of the related EPG of a kind of UI of employing system, to solve the problems of the technologies described above.
The technical problem that the present invention solved can adopt following technical scheme to realize:
Adopt the IPTV system of the related EPG of UI system; Comprise an IPTV (IPTV) client, IPTV (IPTV) server that is connected with said internet protocol television client, said IPTV server is equipped with the EPG system; It is characterized in that; Also comprise at least one Internet Server, said Internet Server comprises the UI interface information, and at least one said Internet Server connects said IPTV server respectively;
Said IPTV server access Internet Server the UI interface information in the Internet Server, is associated with in the said EPG system, generates the EPG user interface information;
Said IPTV server is under the request of internet protocol television client; EPG user interface information in the EPG system that will be related with the UI interface information sends to internet protocol television client, realizes the Internet service of IPTV.
Through technique scheme, the client of IPTV is as long as select the required function menu through the UI user interface, just can realize and being connected of Internet Server, and then be implemented in the Internet service on the IPTV.
Behind EPG user interface information selection function menu; Said internet protocol television client sends services request to the IPTV server; After said IPTV server is received said services request, judge whether the EPG user interface information relevant with said services request is stored in the EPG system;
If store in the EPG system, EPG user interface information that then will be relevant with said services request sends to internet protocol television client;
If not storage in the EPG system; Then said IPTV server is visited the UI interface information relevant with services request in good time from Internet Server; And be associated with in the said EPG system; Generate the EPG user interface information, said EPG user interface information is sent to internet protocol television client.Technique scheme adopts in real time the mode of related EPG system from the Internet to carry out Internet service.This mode can generate the EPG user interface information in real time, and is low to the request memory of IPTV server.
Said IPTV server upgrades the EPG system at a setting-up time; Said IPTV server access Internet Server; Read the UI interface information in the Internet Server, the UI interface information is generated new EPG user interface information, and the EPG user interface information in new EPG user interface information and the self EMS memory is compared; As identical, then do not upgrade; Like difference, then, form the EPG user interface information after upgrading the EPG user interface information in the new EPG user interface information replacement self EMS memory.UI in the Internet Server according to demand in real-time upgrading; By the way; The EPG system of IPTV server is upgraded with Internet Server; For internet protocol television client presents real-time, quick, up-to-date information, realize more perfect Internet service.
Said IPTV server access Internet Server; Download to the UI interface information that exists in the Internet Server hard disk in the internal memory of said IPTV server; And the UI interface information is associated with in the EPG system, generate the EPG user interface information.
Behind EPG user interface information selection function menu; Said internet protocol television client sends services request to the IPTV server; After said IPTV server was received said server requests, EPG user interface information that will be relevant with said services request sent to said internet protocol television client.Technique scheme then is all to download to all the UI interface informations in the Internet Server in the IPTV server memory, generates the EPG user interface information, supplies the internet protocol television client visit.This mode is higher to the request memory of IPTV server.But the response to internet protocol television client is very fast.
Said IPTV server upgrades the EPG system at a setting-up time; Said IPTV server access Internet Server; Read the UI interface information in the Internet Server; Compare with the UI interface information in the IPTV server memory,, then do not upgrade as identical; Like difference, then upgrade the UI interface information do not exist together, and the UI interface information after will upgrading and EPG system carry out related, generation EPG user interface information.The mode that adopts the UI interface information to download is upgraded simple and convenient.
Said setting-up time can be a certain moment of every day or a certain moment of specifying some day, also can be the setting-up time that internet protocol television client is set.Can also be that internet protocol television client triggers the setting-up time of formation.
Beneficial effect: owing to adopt technique scheme, the present invention provides real-time, convenient, up-to-date the Internet information for internet protocol television client, realizes IPTV realization Internet service.
