Meanwhile, in the description of the present invention, the terms "first", "second", and the like are used only for distinguishing the description, and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a block diagram of a director control system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the director control system 100 includes a central control device 110, a video matrix selecting and switching device 120, and a splicing and fusion processing device 130, where the central control device 110 is connected to the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 and the splicing and fusion processing device 130, respectively, and the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 is connected to the splicing and fusion processing device 130.
Central control device 110 is the core of the overall director control system 100 and is used to manage and control the other devices in the director control system 100.
The video matrix selecting and switching device 120 is an electronic device that can output m channels of video signals to n channels of monitoring devices by an array switching method, that is, switches a video image from any input channel to any output channel, that is, is used for selecting and switching the video signals.
The stitching fusion processing device 130 is configured to divide a complete image signal into N blocks and then distribute the N blocks to N video display units (e.g., rear projection units), so as to complete a super-large screen dynamic image display screen formed by a plurality of common video units.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the splicing fusion processing device 130 has a built-in frame synchronization processing function and a signal conversion function, and controls an output window thereof to switch any input channel signal, so that distortion-free smooth transition can be achieved, and the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 has a large-order signal receiving and processing capability. Therefore, the advantages of the splicing fusion processing device 130 and the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120 can be combined, and the process of signal switching distortion phenomenon of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120 can be covered and shielded by using the smooth effect of signal switching of the splicing fusion processing device 130.
The central control device 110 is configured to obtain a broadcast instruction, where the broadcast instruction is used to instruct the central control device 110 to switch an output signal to a target video signal.
If the director operates the central control device 110, the output signal of the target needs to be switched to a target video signal, for example, the current output signal is a signal output by a field camera in a field of a football game, and the target video signal is a signal output by a goal camera, and if the switching is required, the director can directly operate on the central control device 110, for example, a director command is input, which indicates that the current output signal needs to be switched to the target video signal, or the director can also send the director command to the central control device 110 through a terminal device.
The central control device 110 is further configured to send a first instruction to the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 according to the director instruction, that is, after the central control device 110 obtains the director instruction, the first instruction is sent to the video matrix selecting and switching device 120, and the first instruction is used to instruct the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 to transmit the target video signal to the splicing and fusion processing device 130.
The video matrix selecting and switching device 120 is configured to receive the first instruction, and transmit the target video signal to the splicing and fusion processing device 130 according to the first instruction, that is, after receiving the first instruction, the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 selects and switches an output signal into the target video signal and outputs the target video signal to the splicing and fusion processing device 130.
The central control device 110 is further configured to send a second instruction to the splicing and fusion processing device 130 after sending the first instruction for a preset time according to the director instruction, where the second instruction is used to instruct the splicing and fusion processing device 130 to output the target video signal. That is to say, after the central control device 110 sends the first instruction to the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120, the second instruction is sent to the splicing and fusion processing device 130 at an interval of a preset time length, so that the splicing and fusion processing device 130 receives the second instruction and outputs the target video signal according to the second instruction, wherein the preset time length can be preset according to experience and multiple tests of a director, the time of the preset time length can be time of distortion, jitter and black screen caused by the selection and cutting of the video signal, so that the target video signal can be output after waiting for the preset time length, that is, the phenomena of image black screen, jitter and the like generated when the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120 selects and cuts two paths of video signals with unsynchronized frames disappear, and the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is controlled to output the target video signal, so that the image black screen, the jitter and the like generated when the video signals with unsynchronized frames are selected and cut are hidden, Jitter and the like, so that the switching process of the signals received and seen by the audience is distortion-free, smooth and excessive.
In addition, in the practical application process, since some of the director control systems 100 are live broadcast with multiplexed output signals simultaneously, in order to avoid that the central control device 110 receives multiple director instructions simultaneously, and the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 selects and switches the same output channel, standby channels need to be set on the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 and the splicing and merging processing device 130. The output signal is transmitted from the first target channel of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120 to the splicing and fusion processing device 130, and is output from the second target channel of the splicing and fusion processing device 130.
Specifically, the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 is specifically configured to switch the target video signal from the first target channel to a first standby channel according to the first instruction and transmit the switched target video signal to the splicing and fusion processing device 130, where the first standby channel is a standby channel of the first target channel; the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is specifically configured to, after receiving the target video signal input by the video matrix selecting and switching device 120, switch the target video signal from the second target channel to a second standby channel according to the second instruction, and output the second standby channel, where the second standby channel is a standby channel of the second target channel.
Referring to fig. 2 and fig. 3, it is assumed that the number of output windows of the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is a positive integer x, the input channels 1 to x of the splicing and fusion processing device 130 receive the video signals output by the video matrix selecting and switching device 120, and the input channels x +1 to x 2 are backup channels (the number of input channels of the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is generally more than 2 times that of the output windows and is expandable, and the situation that the number of input channels is < x 2 does not occur), and receive the video signals output by the video matrix selecting and switching device 120, (when the number of input video matrix output signals is 2 times that of output windows of the splicing and fusion processing device 130, the problem of insufficient number of backup alternate input channels when multiple output windows switch information at the same time can be avoided, and when the central control device 110 is programmed by software, the control logic relationship is simple and clear, for example, the backup alternate channel of the input channel 1 of the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is the input channel x +1, alternate channel alternate to input channel 2 is input channel x +2, and so on). In fig. 2, n is a positive integer and represents the maximum number of input channels of the matrix.
Referring to fig. 4, after receiving the director instruction, the central control device 110 analyzes the director instruction, accesses the input channel a of the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 after the target video signal is transmitted and processed, and assumes that the input channel a is an input channel a (where a is a positive integer and 0< a < n), obtains the output window a of the splicing and fusing device 130 as the broadcast target, assumes that the output window D is an output window D (where D is a positive integer and 0< D < x), controls the human-computer interaction interface of the central control software, and sequentially selects output D and input a.
Then, the number of input channels displayed by the output window D of the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is obtained, and if the input channel B is assumed to be an input channel B (B is a positive integer, 0< B < x), the standby alternate input channel is an input channel B + x, the information of the input channel B of the splicing and fusion processing device 130 comes from the output C of the video matrix (C is a positive integer, 0< C < maximum output number-x of the video matrix), and the information of the input channel B + x of the splicing and fusion processing device 130 comes from the output C + x of the video matrix.
The input channel a-output channel C of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120 may be defined as a first target channel of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120, the input channel Y (which may be the input channel a or other input channels except the input channel a) -output channel C + X of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120 may be defined as a first spare channel of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120, the input channel B-output window D of the stitching and fusing device 130 may be defined as a second target channel of the stitching and fusing device 130, and the input channel B + X-output window D of the stitching and fusing device 130 may be defined as a second spare channel which may be defined as a stitching and fusing channel.
Therefore, the central control device 110 sends the first instruction to the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 after obtaining the director instruction, so that the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 switches the output channel C to the output channel C + X according to the first instruction, and outputs the target video signal from the output channel C + X, after the interval preset time length, the central control device 110 sends the second instruction to the splicing and fusion processing device 130, so that the splicing and fusion processing device 130 switches the input channel B to B + X, and the target video signal is input from the input channel B + X, output from the output window D to the splicing and fusion large screen, and switching of the video signal is completed.
Wherein, for the setting of the standby channel, the setting can be carried out by the following steps:
(1) firstly, a signal transmission link of the broadcast directing control system 100 needs to be modified, a standby input channel is added to the input end of the splicing and fusion processing equipment 130, and the number of signals sent to the splicing and fusion processing equipment 130 by the video matrix selecting and cutting equipment 120 is more than or equal to the number of broadcasting windows of the splicing and fusion processing equipment 130 by 2;
(2) defining a 1-to-1 corresponding relation between an output window and an input channel of the splicing fusion processing device 130 in a normal mode;
(3) defining a 1-to-1 corresponding relation between an output window and an input channel of the splicing fusion processing equipment 130 in a standby shielding mode;
(4) acquiring a 1-to-1 corresponding relation between an output channel of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120 and an input channel of the splicing fusion processing device 130 according to the device connection line;
(5) recording the time required by the video matrix selecting and cutting equipment 120 from the selecting and cutting instruction to the stability of the selecting and cutting image, wherein the time is accurate to millisecond level, namely the preset time length;
(6) and viewing the device specification, and acquiring the control protocol and the instruction of the splicing fusion processing device 130 and the video matrix selecting and switching device 120.
(7) The software man-machine interaction interface of the central control device 110 is designed to be divided into an output control group and an input control group, the output control group buttons sequentially correspond to the output windows of the splicing fusion processing device 130, and the input control group sequentially corresponds to the input channels of the video matrix selecting and switching device 120.
(8) The control logic relation of the central control device 110 is designed, the operator controls the human-computer interaction interface, firstly selects any output button to obtain the corresponding output window value of the splicing fusion processing device 130, and then selects an input button to obtain the corresponding input channel value of the video matrix selecting and cutting device 120.
(9) And (3) writing a signal selection and cutting method of the software of the central control equipment 110, circularly and alternately outputting the steps and writing the signal selection and cutting method by taking the output and input numerical values obtained in the step (8) as variables and taking the information obtained in the steps (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) as conditions.
(10) And (3) checking the actual signal broadcasting effect of the program director control system 100 by using a software testing process, modifying the delay time obtained in the step (4), compressing the delay time as much as possible on the premise of ensuring the smooth selection and switching effect, and increasing the execution speed of the method.
In addition, in order to maintain a good control logic relationship of the director control system 100, considering the problem of instruction conflict between multi-user distributed control of the director control system 100 and simultaneous switching of multiple output windows, the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 and the splicing fusion processing device 130 need to be controlled to restore to the previous state, the video matrix selecting and switching device is controlled to switch a broadcast signal to the splicing fusion processing device 130 to broadcast an original display channel of a window, and the original display channel is switched to the broadcast window of the splicing fusion processing device 130 after the phenomena of image black screen, jitter and the like generated when the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 selects and switches two paths of video signals with unsynchronized frames disappear.
And finally, programming and modifying the central control system software, and compiling the signal switching mode into a signal selection and switching method of the central control system software, so that the operation steps can be greatly reduced, the reaction speed can be improved, and the execution time of each instruction can be controlled, so that the method has feasibility of practical application.
That is, the central control device 110 is further configured to obtain a restoration instruction, and send a third instruction to the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 according to the restoration instruction, where the third instruction is used to instruct the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 to switch the first standby channel to the first target channel, that is, the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 switches the transmission path of the video signal from the first standby channel to the first target channel according to the third instruction after obtaining the third instruction.
The central control device 110 is further configured to send a fourth instruction to the splicing and fusion processing device 130 according to the recovery instruction after sending the third instruction for a preset time, where the fourth instruction is used to instruct the splicing and fusion processing device 130 to switch the second standby channel to the second target channel, that is, after receiving the fourth instruction, the splicing and fusion processing device 130 switches the transmission path of the video signal from the second standby channel to the second target channel, so that the transmission path of the video signal can be recovered.
Because a part of the central control system adopts a distributed design and adopts a mode of adding a server and a plurality of terminals to meet the requirement of multi-user parallel operation in the director control system 100, in order to ensure that the problem of instruction conflict does not exist during parallel operation, the transmission path needs to be restored in the embodiment. If not, after the first instruction or the second instruction is completed, the original display channel and the standby channel are exchanged, a variable record is needed to be set to record the change, the change is used for acquiring the numerical values of the current display channel and the standby channel when the first instruction and the second instruction are executed again next time, the variable needs to be stored in the server because the variable is shared by adopting multi-terminal operation, each terminal needs to acquire the numerical value of the variable from the server when selection switching is carried out, and if the numerical value of the variable needs to be uploaded to the server after being changed, due to the existence of delay time in the process, a delay waiting process can be carried out when the terminal just acquires the numerical value of the variable, the variable is modified by another terminal, signal selection and switching errors can be caused, if the transmission path is recovered, the display channel numerical value is obtained by analyzing and broadcasting instructions of the terminal, and the standby channel numerical value is the numerical value + X of the variable, the logical relationship does not change, whereby the above-mentioned problems can be avoided.
In addition, since the splicing fusion processing device 130 further has a frame synchronization function, in order to reduce the distortion time generated when two paths of frame asynchronous signals are selected and switched, the splicing fusion processing device 130 is further configured to perform frame synchronization processing on the target video signal before the second instruction has been received after the target video signal is received from the video matrix selection and switching device 120, so that a target video signal frame-synchronized with the current output signal can be output.
Certainly, in order to save cost, if some splicing fusion processing devices 130 do not have a frame synchronization processing function, the director control system 100 further includes a frame synchronization processing device connected to the output channel of the video matrix selecting and switching device 120, where the frame synchronization processing device is configured to perform frame synchronization processing on the target video signal and output the target video signal to the splicing fusion processing device 130, so that the delay time of instruction delay processing can be reduced, that is, the set time of preset duration is reduced, the instruction execution speed can be increased, and the information selecting and switching display effect is optimized.
In addition, if there is enough time to prepare before the director task starts, the central control device 110 does not adopt a distributed design, and only one manipulator operates the central control system at the same time. The method can be adopted, namely, the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is controlled to select and switch the standby input channel from the output window, the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 is controlled to select and switch the image to the original input channel of the output window of the splicing and fusion processing device 130, the phenomena of image black screen, shaking and the like generated when the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 selects and switches two paths of video signals with unsynchronized frames disappear, and then the splicing and fusion processing device 130 is controlled to select and switch the output window to the original input channel. And meanwhile, the video matrix is controlled to select and cut the image to the standby input channel of the output window of the splicing and fusion processing device 130. The method is that the execution of the current selection-cut instruction needs to be based on the correct execution of the previous selection-cut instruction, so that before the director task starts, a certain preparation time needs to be reserved for the operation and management personnel to switch the display content of the output window of each splicing fusion processing device 130 more than once, so that 1-step instruction delay processing is simplified, and the instruction execution speed can be increased.
Therefore, the embodiment of the present invention combines the advantages of the splicing fusion processing device 130 and the video matrix selecting and switching device 120, and blocks the distortion phenomenon of signal switching of the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 by using the smooth signal switching effect of the splicing fusion processing device 130, thereby solving the problem of fewer input and output channels of the splicing fusion processing device 130, and solving the problems of image black screen, image jitter and the like when the video matrix selecting and switching device 120 selects and switches two channels of video signals with unsynchronized frames. Under the condition of not adopting frame synchronization processing, the frame synchronization processing effect on signals with large magnitude order is realized, a large amount of funds are saved, and the requirement of the live broadcast task of the director control system 100 is met.
Meanwhile, the selection and switching processing link of the video matrix selection and switching equipment 120 not only represents a single video matrix selection and switching equipment 120, but also can realize the distortion-free stable transition effect of the selection and switching of signals of various video display formats by serially connecting a plurality of video matrix selection and switching equipment 120 supporting different video display formats through signal conversion equipment. The frame synchronizer is not available in the past, and because the indexes of resolution, refresh rate and the like of signals in different video display formats are different, even if the frame synchronization processing is carried out, the video display formats are not changed, the indexes of resolution, refresh rate and the like are still different, and the problems of color distortion, various image loss, distortion, jitter and the like still occur when two paths of different signals are switched. The embodiment of the invention effectively solves the problem of undistorted smooth selection and cutting of signals with various video display formats by hiding the signal selection and cutting distortion process, and greatly improves the signal compatibility of the director control system 100.
