Description

A kind of service packs upgrade method based on set-top box software and system
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of method for upgrading software, particularly relate to a kind of service packs upgrade method based on set-top box software and system.
Background technology
Along with the Digital Television industry development of globalization, digital TV set-top box has spread to each family, becomes household requisites.Along with the increase of use amount, the performance requirement of people to Set Top Box is more and more higher.Therefore the configuration of Set Top Box is also more and more higher, and memory capacity, the memory size of Set Top Box are also increasing, and what the Set Top Box that USB interface, network interface, HDMI (HDMI) etc. configure at height was applied is more and more.But Set Top Box is the same with computer, its software neither be unalterable, and along with the development of set-top box technique, the renewal of its software is also more and more frequent.
The maximum upgrade method of current use has that OTA (OverTheAir) upgrades, web download upgrading, USB upgrading, serial ports upgrading.OTA upgrading uses maximum upgrading modes at present, needs digital-TV operator to broadcast upgrading stream in front end.When upgrading stream is not broadcast in front end, Set Top Box cannot be upgraded.For the place that amendment is fewer, generally subregion is all taked to upgrade, but sometimes change a pictures in prior art, revise some words, all need to upgrade to whole subregion, cause AKU larger, update time is long, occur that the probability of upgrade problem is large, the serious software that causes cannot use.As:
On Dec 31st, 2014, the application number of application was the Chinese invention of 201410853788.0, and disclose a kind of set-top box software customization upgrade method, it comprises: S1: Set Top Box and upgrade server are set up network and be connected; S2: send software upgrading request to upgrade server; S3: upgrade server resolves software upgrading request, obtains the software version information of Set Top Box; S4: the software version information of Set Top Box and the version information of recent software are compared, if meet the demands, then performs S5; Otherwise perform S10; S5: upgrade server generates available software information; S6: set-top box parses also shows available software information, selects the software that will comprise in software upgrade package; S7: Set Top Box generates upgrading configuration, and sends to upgrade server; S8: upgrade server generates software upgrade package according to upgrading configuration; S9: Set Top Box receives software upgrade package and upgrades; S10: Set Top Box is not upgraded.This invention due to AKU larger, update time is of a specified duration.
On August 19th, 2011, the application number of application was the Chinese invention of 201110239952.5, disclosed a kind of method for updating set-top box software, comprised step: the latest version information obtaining set-top box software; The described latest version information obtained and current use version information are compared; If described current use version is lower than described latest edition, then use software upgrading menu, forward end sends software upgrading request and Set Top Box information; Obtain the updating set-top box software mode that described front end calculates according to the configuration of Set Top Box, downloaded the set-top box software of latest edition by described software upgrading mode, wherein, described software upgrading mode is network upgrade mode or online upgrading mode; Judge whether the set-top box software of described latest edition is downloaded successfully; If so, the set-top box software of described latest edition is then installed, completes the software upgrading of Set Top Box.
