It is humorous；Memory 104, for storing include in the digital broadcast signal or analog broadcast signal that are received from tuner 101 attached
Add the EPG information extracted in information；EPG generators 105, it may include OSD maker, for according to storing in memory 104
EPG information generates EPG；Display screen 107, for showing through treated the EPG of Video Controller 106.
Specifically, during display TV broadcast program on the display screen 107 of smart television, user is connect by user
Mouth 102（Remote controler）The EPG of transmission shows that request signal is input to system processor 103, that is, sent out in response to user
EPG display requests, system processor 103 extract EPG information from the broadcast singal that tuner 101 receives so that EPG is generated
Device 105 can use image based on the EPG information and OSD maker extracted（OSD）The EPG images that data generate are built
EPG, and then include on display screen 107 by EPG user interfaces by Video Controller 106.
Wherein, the EPG information of said extracted is used to indicate the reproduction time table of multiple broadcast programs, it may include broadcast program
Title, type, starting playing time and terminate playing time etc..
Fig. 2A is a kind of schematic diagram of EPG user interfaces.As shown in Figure 2 A, vertical direction is channel axis direction, with multirow
Form shows different channel；Horizontal direction is time-axis direction, and often each broadcast program is ranked sequentially with reproduction time in row, and
The size of the display area of each broadcast program indicates its reproduction time length.Five are shown in Fig. 2A in EPG user interfaces
Channel（DC a-DC e）, the broadcast program of each channel is ranked sequentially according to program play times is shown as a line.Such as：Figure
2A shows 3:00PM to 5:Broadcast program menu between 00PM, broadcast program a0-a3, DC the b channels of DC a channels it is wide
Broadcast the broadcast section of broadcast program d0-d8, DC the e channels of broadcast program c0-c6, DC the d channels of program b0-b5, DC c channels
Mesh e0-e7.
When control focus falls into the broadcast program of a certain position, the broadcast program is shown simultaneously in EPG user interfaces
Guide（Guide）, which may include channel identication, reproduction time and brief introduction of the broadcast program etc..Such as Fig. 2A institutes
Show, when control focus is fallen in broadcast program a2, broadcast program a2 is shown in the guide region on the upside of EPG user interfaces
The reproduction time 2,9/3 4 of the channel identication DCa of subordinate channel, broadcast program a2:19PM-29/35:19PM and broadcast program
The brief introduction of a2.
Wherein, since the starting playing time that broadcast program plays on each channel is different with playing time is terminated, cause
For indicate the broadcast program play times section in the EPG on each channel display area it is of different sizes namely above-mentioned each aobvious
Show the initial position in region（Corresponding starting playing time）And end position（It is corresponding to terminate playing time）With randomness；Into
And make the broadcast program display area dislocation display for occurring in multirow up and down in the EPG.Such as：A0, b0, c0 are indicated in Fig. 2A
The end position of the display area of broadcast program play times is misaligned, and then indicates a1, b1, c1 broadcast program play times
The initial position of display area is also misaligned.Thus, during control focus moves up and down in the EPG, due to not going together
Between the dislocation display of each broadcast program the problem of, after mobile every time, all there may be the offsets on a left and right directions, repeatedly deviate
Afterwards, will be far from the focal position of most initial, focus finally can all be moved to page boundary under extreme case.
By taking Fig. 2A as an example, initial focus is fallen on broadcast program a3.It is pressed on a remote controler downwards when receiving user
When the instruction of directionkeys, the starting playing time being typically subject on the left of broadcast program a3, control focus is moved to broadcast section
Include the starting playing time of broadcast program a3 within the starting playing time and termination playing time of mesh b3, broadcast program b3,
As shown in Figure 2 B；When receiving the instruction of downward-direction key on user's remote controler of pressing, on the left of broadcast program b3
It originates subject to playing time, control focus is moved to broadcast program c3, and the starting playing time of broadcast program c3 and termination play
Include the starting playing time of broadcast program b3 within moment, as shown in Figure 2 C；It is pressed on a remote controler when receiving user
When the instruction of downward-direction key, the starting playing time being subject on the left of broadcast program c3, control focus is moved to broadcast program
Include the starting playing time of broadcast program c3 within the starting playing time and termination playing time of d3, broadcast program d3, such as
Shown in Fig. 2 D；When receiving the instruction of downward-direction key on user's remote controler of pressing, with rising on the left of broadcast program d3
Subject to beginning playing time, control focus is moved to broadcast program e3, when the starting playing time of broadcast program e3 and termination play
Include the starting playing time of broadcast program d3 within quarter, as shown in Figure 2 E.Focus is moved down from broadcast program a3 in this way
Path is a3-b3-c3-d3-e3, as shown in fig. 2j so that the broadcast program e3 that final focus is fallen into was fallen into initial focus
The offset of broadcast program a3 is larger.
At this point, in the case where focus falls into broadcast program a3, pressed on a remote controler upward if receiving user
To key instruction when, the starting playing time being subject on the left of broadcast program e3, control focus is moved to broadcast program d1, broadcasts
The starting playing time for including broadcast program e3 within the starting playing time and termination playing time of program d1, such as Fig. 2 F institutes
Show；Similarly control focus is moved upward to broadcast program c1 again（As shown in Figure 2 G）,b0（As illustrated in figure 2h）,a0（Such as Fig. 2 I
It is shown）.In this way focus from the path that broadcast program e3 is moved up be e3-d1-c1-b0-a0, as shown in fig. 2j so that final
The offset of the broadcast program a0 that focus is fallen into and the broadcast program e3 that initial focus is fallen into are larger.
Further, can be obtained from the path that above-mentioned focus moves up and down, the broadcast program a0 that final focus is fallen into most
The broadcast program a3 that initial focus is fallen into deposits larger offset in the lateral direction so that the position of final focus can not fall back to
a3.It can be seen that when carrying out contrary operation, it just will appear the phenomenon that focus can not be recalled, influence user experience.
In other words, when broadcast program of the control focus between different channel moves up and down, due to different channel
Between the dislocation display of each broadcast program, and, need to fall into before being moved according to focus the location of broadcast program of a upper channel come
The new position for calculating focus movement in real time, is moved on the broadcast program that new position is shown with controlling focus, may be led in this way
Cause to deposit between the broadcast program that the focus broadcast program eventually fallen into and most initial focus fall into the lateral direction it is larger partially
It moves, puzzlement is brought for user.
To solve the above problems, inventor proposes：In broadcast program of the control focus between different channel move down
When dynamic, according to selected the location of reference broadcast program, to calculate the new position of focus movement, and then focus movement is controlled
On the broadcast program shown to new position.In this way broadcast program of the control focus between different channel moved up or under move past
Cheng Zhong, with reference to the same reference broadcast program, the broadcast program that selection can be moved to avoid focus generates in the lateral direction
Larger offset, can solve the problems, such as in EPG user interfaces that focus moves up and down can not recall, and improve user experience.
As shown in figure 4, embodiments herein provides a kind of control method of the movement of the focus in EPG user interfaces, packet
Include following steps：
101, display TV broadcast program on display screen.
102, it receives and shows that the instruction of EPG user interfaces is shown in response to the instruction on television program picture
EPG user interfaces.
103, reference broadcast program is judged whether.
104, if it is not, after the broadcast program where current focus is then determined as reference broadcast program, what determination received
The instruction of direction movement is used to indicate the direction of focus movement.
105, if so, directly determining that the instruction of the direction received movement is used to indicate the direction of focus movement.
106, it is used to indicate what focus broadcast program play times orientation along EPG user interfaces was moved when receiving
When instruction, in response to the instruction, control focus is fallen into current television channel in current broadcasting program, and by the current broadcast section
Mesh is updated to reference broadcast program.
107, when receive be used to indicate instruction that focus is moved along EPG user interface mid band orientations when, response
The new position that focus moves in destination television channel is determined according to the reference broadcast section destination locations, in the instruction with control
Focus is moved to the corresponding target broadcast programs in new position.
In an embodiment of the present invention, channel identication and section residing for broadcast program where focal position can use focus
Target is known to indicate.For example, global variable channel Index（Channel identication）, saved for preserving broadcast where current focus
Channel number belonging to mesh；Global variable program Index（Program identification）, for preserving current focus place broadcast program
Index value；Global variable lastFocusProgram, for preserving reference broadcast section destination locations, which may include benchmark
Channel number belonging to broadcast program and index value.
It should be noted that in EPG user interfaces, the broadcast program where focus highlights, and such as indicates broadcast section
Purpose display area is amplified in the original location, and/or the overstriking of display area edge, and/or display area formation shade pattern etc., with
It is different from other broadcast programs.
Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 A, in the EPG user interfaces shown on a display screen, coke is used to indicate if received
The instruction moved along same a line left and right directions of point then determines target broadcast programs that focus is moved to according to target index value, with
And new focal position is set according to the position of target broadcast programs, with the rope when line number is constant, by changing broadcast program
Draw the position that value positioning focus is moved to target broadcast programs；And the position of broadcast program where focus after movement is preserved, as
Reference broadcast section destination locations.
It is used to indicate the instruction that focus is moved along upper and lower directions of not going together if received, traverses institute in up/down a line
There is broadcast program, and according to reference broadcast section destination locations, determines the target broadcast programs that focus is moved in the up/down a line
Line number and index value, to which new focal position be arranged.
Wherein, above-mentioned line number channel Index can be up according to focus moving direction（Upwards）Or down（To
Under）Automatically -1 or+1, index value program Index can be left according to focus moving direction（To the left）Or right
（To the right）Automatically -1 or+1, and then new focal position can be set according to the line number of broadcast program and index value.
Optionally, according to the reference broadcast section destination locations in step 107, determine that focus moves in destination television channel
New position, be moved to the corresponding target broadcast programs in new position to control focus, be specifically as follows：
Each broadcast program in destination television channel is traversed, judges the starting playing time of the reference broadcast program and terminate to play
Moment（Namely program play times）Within whether include particular moment of a certain broadcast program in destination television channel；In other words
Say, judge a certain broadcast program in destination television channel particular moment whether the reference broadcast program starting playing time
With termination playing time（Namely program play times）Within；
If the reproduction time of the reference broadcast program includes the particular moment of target broadcast programs, the new position of focus movement is calculated
It sets, and controls focus and be moved to the corresponding target broadcast programs in new position.
Here, the particular moment of broadcast program can be preferably the starting playing time of program according to presetting rule, terminate and broadcast
Any of corresponding playing time at the half of moment or program play times is put, the reference of the presetting rule is
It is moved to ensure focal position meeting in convergence range expected from user, avoids focus movement from causing larger offset, improve
User experience.
Specifically, for example being shown shown in Fig. 3 A in the EPG user interfaces of screen display, remote controler is pressed receiving user
Before directionkeys instruction, it is first determined whether there are reference broadcast programs.
If not finding out reference broadcast section destination locations from global variable lastFocusProgram, it is determined that be not present
Reference broadcast program, then the initial broadcast program where current focus is determined as reference broadcast program.Such as in Fig. 3 A when
Front focus station location marker is that line number channel Index are that Dc a, index value a1 namely focus are located at broadcast program a1, then
Line number residing for broadcast program where preserving current focus in global variable channel Index is Dc a, global variable
The index value of broadcast program where the current focus preserved in program Index is a1.Broadcast program a1 is determined as simultaneously
Reference broadcast program, by belonging to reference broadcast program a1 line number Dc a and index value a1 be stored in global variable
In lastFocusProgram, as reference broadcast section destination locations.
If finding out the base for preserving line number Dc a and index value a1 in it from global variable lastFocusProgram
The position of quasi- broadcast program a1, it is determined that there are reference broadcast program a1.Then start to receive the remote controler direction that user sends
Key instructs, to make a response.
In some instances, in the case where focus is fallen on broadcast program a1, when user press a remote controler on to
When lower directionkeys, the broadcast program b0-b5 in line number Dc b channels is traversed according to chronological order, according to global variable
The line number Dc a and index value a1 residing for reference broadcast program preserved in lastFocusProgram, judges reference broadcast section
The program play times of mesh a1 include the particular moment of broadcast program b1（Termination playing time will be such as chosen to be particular moment）, then
Return to the index value b1 of broadcast program b1.As shown in Figure 3B, then the new station location marker of focus movement changes for line number automatic+1
Become Dc b, index value b1, and then controls focus and be moved on the corresponding broadcast program b1 in new position.Meanwhile it updating global
Line number residing for broadcast program where preserving current focus in variable channel Index is Dc b, global variable program
The index value of broadcast program where the current focus preserved in Index is b1.
In some embodiments, in the case where focus is fallen on broadcast program b1, when user continues to press primary remote control
On device when downward-direction key, the broadcast program c0-c6 in line number Dc c channels is traversed according to chronological order, is become according to the overall situation
The line number Dc a and index value a1 residing for reference broadcast program preserved in amount lastFocusProgram, judges reference broadcast
The program play times of program a1 include the termination playing time of broadcast program c1, then return to the index value c1 of broadcast program c1.
As shown in Figure 3 C, it then the new station location marker of focus movement changes into Dc c, index value c1 for line number automatic+1, and then controls
Focus processed is moved on the corresponding broadcast program c1 in new position.Meanwhile it updating in global variable channel Index and preserving currently
Line number residing for broadcast program where focus is wide for the current focus place preserved in Dc c, global variable program Index
The index value for broadcasting program is c1.
In the case where focus is fallen on broadcast program c1, when user continues to press downward-direction key on remote controler, press
The broadcast program d0-d8 in line number Dc d channels is traversed according to chronological order, according to global variable lastFocusProgram
Line number Dc a residing for the reference broadcast program of middle preservation and index value a1, when judging that the program of reference broadcast program a1 plays
Between include the termination playing time of broadcast program d1 and d2, at this time due to first traversing broadcast program d1, so returning to broadcast section
The index value d1 of mesh d1.As shown in Figure 3D, then the new station location marker of focus movement changes into Dc d, rope for line number automatic+1
It is d1 to draw value, and then controls focus and be moved on the corresponding broadcast program d1 in new position.
Then, in the case where focus is fallen on broadcast program d1, when user continues to press downward-direction key on remote controler
When, the broadcast program e0-e7 in line number Dc e channels is traversed according to chronological order, according to global variable
The line number Dc a and index value a1 residing for reference broadcast program preserved in lastFocusProgram, judges reference broadcast section
The program play times of mesh a1 include the termination playing time of broadcast program e3, then return to the index value e3 of broadcast program e3.Such as
Shown in Fig. 3 E, then the new station location marker of focus movement changes into Dc e, index value e3 for line number automatic+1, and then control
Focus is moved on the corresponding broadcast program e3 in new position.
At this point, in the case where focus is fallen on broadcast program e3, when user presses the directionkeys on s on remote controler,
The broadcast program d0-d8 in line number Dc d channels is traversed according to chronological order, according to global variable
The line number Dc a and index value a1 residing for reference broadcast program preserved in lastFocusProgram, judges reference broadcast section
The program play times of mesh a1 include the termination playing time of broadcast program d1 and d2, at this time due to first traversing broadcast program
D1, so returning to the index value d1 of broadcast program d1.As shown in Figure 3D, then focus movement new station location marker be line number from
It moves -1 and Dc d, index value d1 is changed by Dc e, and then control focus and be moved on the corresponding broadcast program d1 in new position.
Similarly, when user presses upward direction key on remote controler successively, control focus is moved to broadcast program c1 successively
