b. the set-top box middleware layer receives the network state change signal and forwards the network state change signal to the set-top box application layer;
c. the set-top box application layer is provided with an on-demand portal interface and a live broadcast portal interface, receives a state change signal sent by the middleware layer, and jumps to the live broadcast portal interface when the current broadcast state is on-demand; and when the current playing state is live broadcasting and jumping does not occur before, jumping is not performed, otherwise, jumping to the on-demand portal interface.
The method for realizing the single-direction and two-direction automatic skip mechanism of the digital television portal interface comprises the following steps that a set top box hardware bottom layer monitors a network port connection state, when the network port connection state changes, a network state change signal is sent to a set top box middleware layer, the set top box middleware layer receives the network state change signal and forwards the network state change signal to a set top box application layer, the set top box application layer is provided with an on-demand portal interface and a live broadcast portal interface, the on-demand portal interface and the live broadcast portal interface receive the state change signal sent by the middleware layer, and when the current play state is on-demand, the set top box hardware bottom layer; and when the current playing state is live broadcasting and jumping does not occur before, jumping is not performed, otherwise, jumping to the on-demand portal interface.
When the network fault disconnection occurs in the on-demand state, the system can automatically jump to the live broadcast state; when the on-demand state is recovered, the network can automatically jump back to the on-demand state, and the use experience of the user is further improved.

Detailed Description
As shown in fig. 1, the method for implementing a single-directional and two-directional automatic skip mechanism of a digital tv portal interface according to the present invention includes the following steps: the hardware bottom layer of the set-top box monitors the connection state of the network port and sends a network state change signal to the middleware layer of the set-top box when the connection state of the network port changes; the set-top box middleware layer receives the network state change signal and forwards the network state change signal to the set-top box application layer; the set-top box application layer is provided with an on-demand portal interface and a live broadcast portal interface, receives a state change signal sent by the middleware layer, and jumps to the live broadcast portal interface when the current broadcast state is on-demand; and when the current playing state is live broadcasting and jumping does not occur before, jumping is not performed, otherwise, jumping to the on-demand portal interface.
The set-top box hardware bottom layer monitors the network port connection state, sends a network state change signal to the set-top box middleware layer when the network port connection state changes, the set-top box middleware layer receives the network state change signal and forwards the network state change signal to the set-top box application layer, the set-top box application layer is provided with a video-on-demand portal interface and a live broadcast portal interface, receives the state change signal sent by the middleware layer, and jumps to the live broadcast portal interface when the current play state is video-on-demand; and when the current playing state is live broadcasting and jumping does not occur before, jumping is not performed, otherwise, jumping to the on-demand portal interface. When the network fault disconnection occurs in the on-demand state, the system can automatically jump to the live broadcast state; when the on-demand state is recovered, the network can automatically jump back to the on-demand state, and the use experience of the user is further improved.
The set-top box application layer is provided with an on-demand portal interface and a live broadcast portal interface, receives a state change signal sent by the middleware layer, and jumps to the live broadcast portal interface when the current broadcast state is on-demand; and when the current playing state is live broadcasting and jumping does not occur before, jumping is not performed, otherwise, jumping to the on-demand portal interface. The set-top box application layer sends prompt confirmation information to the live content page before jumping from the live state to the on-demand portal interface, and jumps back to the on-demand portal interface after receiving the confirmation information given by the user. The user can effectively improve the experience effect of the user according to the prompt confirmation information, and skip switching can be performed according to the currently prompted confirmation information.
The set-top box application layer is provided with an on-demand portal interface and a live broadcast portal interface, receives a state change signal sent by the middleware layer, and jumps to the live broadcast portal interface when the current broadcast state is on-demand; and when the current playing state is live broadcasting and jumping does not occur before, jumping is not performed, otherwise, jumping to the on-demand portal interface. The set-top box application layer stores the currently requested program information before jumping to the live broadcasting portal interface from the requesting state, and directly reads the stored program information and continues playing when jumping back to the requesting portal interface next time. The method and the device can provide better playing service for users, and users can call the stored program information to record, continue playing and playback after the state change signal is recovered, so that the experience effect of the users is improved.
The set-top box application layer is provided with a storage unit for temporarily recording the jump times, and when the set-top box application layer receives the state change signal, the set-top box application layer reads the jump times recorded by the access unit to determine whether the jump occurs. When the set-top box is started up each time, the storage unit is used for temporarily recording the jump times, and the jump times are erased after the set-top box is shut down, so that the mutual jump of the on-demand portal interface and the live portal interface is effectively ensured through the jump times recorded by the access unit, and the effect of using the interactive service by a user is further improved.
The foregoing is a more detailed description of the invention in connection with specific preferred embodiments and it is not intended that the invention be limited to these specific details. For those skilled in the art to which the invention pertains, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention, and all shall be considered as belonging to the protection scope of the invention.
