Detailed Description

To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the exemplary embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the exemplary embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the exemplary embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described exemplary embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments.

The present application relates to a display terminal including at least two system-on-chip, and for ease of understanding, a display terminal of a multi-chip structure is described herein.

For the convenience of users, various external device interfaces are usually provided on the display device to facilitate connection of different peripheral devices or cables to implement corresponding functions. When a high-definition camera is connected to an interface of the display device, if a hardware system of the display device does not have a hardware interface of a high-pixel camera receiving the source code, data received by the camera cannot be displayed on a display screen of the display device.

Furthermore, due to the hardware structure, the hardware system of the conventional display device only supports one path of hard decoding resources, and usually only supports video decoding with a resolution of 4K at most, so when a user wants to perform video chat while watching a network television, the user needs to use the hard decoding resources (usually GPU in the hardware system) to decode the network video without reducing the definition of the network video screen, and in this case, the user can only process the video chat screen by using a general-purpose processor (e.g. CPU) in the hardware system to perform soft decoding on the video.

The soft decoding is adopted to process the video chat picture, so that the data processing burden of a CPU (central processing unit) can be greatly increased, and when the data processing burden of the CPU is too heavy, the problem of picture blocking or unsmooth flow can occur. Further, due to the data processing capability of the CPU, when the CPU performs soft decoding on the video chat screen, multi-channel video calls cannot be generally implemented, and when a user wants to perform video chat with multiple other users in the same chat scene, access is blocked.

In view of the above aspects, to overcome the above drawbacks, the present application discloses a dual hardware system architecture to implement multiple channels of video chat data (at least one channel of local video).

Since the functions of the operating system 3911 of the a chip are similar to those of the operating system 2911 of the N chip, reference may be made to the operating system 2911 for relevant points, and details are not repeated here.

As shown in fig. 6b, the application layer of the display device contains various applications that can be executed at the display device 200.

The N-chip application layer 2912 may include, but is not limited to, one or more applications such as: a video-on-demand application, an application center, a game application, and the like. The application layer 3912 of the a-chip may include, but is not limited to, one or more applications such as: live television applications, media center applications, and the like. It should be noted that what applications are respectively contained in the a chip and the N chip is determined according to an operating system and other designs, and the present invention does not need to make specific limitations and divisions on the applications contained in the a chip and the N chip.

The live television application program can provide live television through different signal sources. For example, a live television application may provide television signals using input from cable television, radio broadcasts, satellite services, or other types of live television services. And, the live television application may display video of the live television signal on the display device 200.

A video-on-demand application may provide video from different storage sources. Unlike live television applications, video on demand provides a video display from some storage source. For example, the video on demand may come from a server side of the cloud storage, from a local hard disk storage containing stored video programs.

The media center application program can provide various applications for playing multimedia contents. For example, a media center, which may be other than live television or video on demand, may provide services that a user may access to various images or audio through a media center application.

A schematic diagram of a user interface in a display device 200 according to an exemplary embodiment is illustrated in fig. 7. As shown in fig. 7, the user interface includes a plurality of view display areas, illustratively, a first view display area 201 and a play screen 202, wherein the play screen includes a layout of one or more different items. And a selector in the user interface indicating that the item is selected, the position of the selector being movable by user input to change the selection of a different item.

It should be noted that the multiple view display areas may present display screens of different hierarchies. For example, a first view display area may present video chat project content and a second view display area may present application layer project content (e.g., web page video, VOD presentations, application screens, etc.).

Optionally, the different view display areas are presented with different priorities, and the display priorities of the view display areas are different among the view display areas with different priorities. If the priority of the system layer is higher than that of the application layer, when the user uses the acquisition selector and picture switching in the application layer, the picture display of the view display area of the system layer is not blocked; and when the size and the position of the view display area of the application layer are changed according to the selection of the user, the size and the position of the view display area of the system layer are not influenced.

The display frames of the same hierarchy can also be presented, at this time, the selector can switch between the first view display area and the second view display area, and when the size and the position of the first view display area are changed, the size and the position of the second view display area can be changed along with the change.

Since the a-chip and the N-chip may have independent operating systems installed therein, there are two independent but interrelated subsystems in the display device 200. For example, Android (Android) and various APPs can be independently installed on the chip a and the chip N, so that each chip can realize a certain function, and the chip a and the chip N cooperatively realize a certain function.

Therefore, for Android television equipment, there are two types of key events: when the key event is a continuous press event, a part of keys are easily lost due to instability of communication or the key sequence is disordered, which may cause the following problems:

(1) on any system, if a certain key is pressed for a long time, the lifting key is lost, and the focus can move continuously.

(2) For the scene of the animation controlled by the keys, the effect of the animation is not controlled by losing the keys, and the user experience is very poor.

(3) Some functions of the part of the software are only to detect key up events and process some logic, which will not be triggered if the up key is lost.

(4) Some applications trigger color change logic for long keys to prompt the user to press for a long time, and color change is accumulated all the time because a lift-off event cannot be received, so that normal logic cannot be displayed for the user.

In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present application provides a display device, where a first controller transmits a key event and a number of the key event to a second controller, and the second controller detects whether there is a continuous pressing event in a received key event, and if there is a continuous pressing event, the second controller modifies the number of the continuous pressing event to arrange the serial number of the continuous pressing event, so as to ensure validity of keys on a system, and avoid key confusion caused by key loss.

As shown in fig. 8, a display device provided in an embodiment of the present application includes:

the first controller 101 is configured to receive the key event and transmit the key event and the number of the key event to the second controller 201.

A second controller 201 configured to receive the key event and the number of the key event sent by the first controller 101, and detect whether the key value of the pressed event in the key event has the same value; if the key values of the pressing events have the same value, modifying the number of the pressing events so as to arrange the pressing events of the same pressing event value in sequence.

A display 301 configured to display image content.

Here, for convenience of description, the processor 310 in fig. 4 and 5 corresponds to the first controller 101 in fig. 8, and the processor 210 in fig. 4 and 5 corresponds to the second controller 201 in fig. 8, which will not be described below.

For the dual-system social television, the key receiver is arranged on the first controller 101, and after the receiving module 101-1 of the first controller 101 receives the key, whether the key is transmitted to the second controller 201 is judged, and if the key is not required, the key is normally transmitted to the first controller 101 for processing; if the key is required to be transmitted, the key is transmitted to the second controller 201 through the communication module 101-2 (at least one of the network, serial, USB and HDMI communication modes) of the first controller 101, and after the key is received by the receiving module 201-1 of the second controller 201, the key is injected into the second controller 201, and then the second controller 201 processes the key normally.

After the user presses the key of the remote controller, the first controller 101 receives the key and determines that the key needs to be transmitted to the second controller 201, and then the first controller 101 transmits the key event to the second controller 201. On Android television equipment, due to the particularity of continuous pressing events (long keys), a repeat count exists in the keys, the repeat count exists only when the keys are pressed, the repeat count does not exist when the keys are lifted, the repeat count represents the repetition number of the current keys, when the continuous pressing events are transmitted, the continuous pressing event numbers are transmitted at the same time, and if the key down is carried out, the repeat number is 1; key down, repeat 2, etc.

After receiving the key event, the first controller 101 needs to first determine whether the key event is a pressing event, if the key event is the pressing event, record a key value and a pressing event number of the pressing event, and if the pressing event number is 1, transmit the pressing event to the second controller 201; if the key is lifted, whether the next key event is a press event is continuously judged. Namely, the pressing events in the key events are sequentially judged according to the sequence of the key events received by the first controller 101, and the numbers of the pressing events are recorded according to the sequence.

After the key event is judged to be a pressing event, whether the pressing event is a continuous pressing event needs to be judged, so whether the recorded key values have the same value or not needs to be continuously judged, if the recorded key values have the same value, the pressing event is the continuous pressing event, 1 is sequentially added to the number of the pressing event according to the sequence of the first controller 101 for receiving the pressing event, if the number of the pressing event is 2, and then the pressing event is transmitted to the second controller 201; if the recorded key values do not have the same value, it indicates that the pressing event is the pressing of another key, another key value is recorded, the pressing event is transmitted to the second controller 201, and the next key event needs to be continuously judged until all pressing events of the same key are determined to be transmitted.

Similarly, if the next key event is a lift event, it is necessary to continuously determine whether the next key event is a press event until all press events of the same key are transmitted.

After the second controller 201 receives the key event and the number of the key event transmitted by the first controller 101, due to instability of communication, when receiving the continuous pressing event and the continuous pressing event number, the second controller may receive the pressing and lifting events at the same time, and the situation of losing the key may occur, so that the received key event needs to be determined.

After the second controller 201 receives the key event, it first determines whether the received key event is a pressing event through the detection module 201-2 of the second controller 201, and if the received key event is the pressing event, records the key value of the pressing event and the number of the pressing event, where the number of the pressing event is a number defined when the pressing event is transmitted. If the key event is the lifting event, whether the next received key event is the pressing event is continuously judged until the received key event is determined to be the pressing event.

After determining that the received key event is a pressing event, judging whether the pressing event is a continuous pressing event through the detection module 201-2, so that whether the key value of the pressing event has the same value needs to be judged, if the key value has the same value, the pressing event is a continuous pressing event, and arranging the pressing event with the same key value and the serial number of the pressing event according to the receiving sequence of the pressing event; if the same key value does not exist, the pressing event received by the second controller is the pressing event of a different key.

Similarly, if the key event received by the second controller is a push-up event, it is necessary to continuously determine whether the next key event is a push event until all push events are determined to be received.

Due to communication instability, when receiving continuous pressing events, the situation of losing keys may occur, for example, the continuous pressing events transmitted by the first controller are: key down, repeat 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, but the second controller receives the following events: key down, 1, 2, 3, 4, missing key down, 5; it may also happen that the receiving numbers are out of order, for example, the first controller transmits a continuous pressing event as: the key down, the repeat 1, the key down, the repeat 4, the key down, and the repeat 5, but the second controller receives the continuous push event of the key down, the repeat 1, the key down, the repeat 3, the key down, the repeat 5, the key down, the repeat 4, the key down, and the repeat 2, and thus, the second controller 201 needs to determine the number of the continuous push event received.

For a long press of a certain key, the serial numbers of the continuous press events received by the second controller 201 should be continuous, and if the continuous press events received by the second controller are key down, repeat is 1, key down, repeat is 2, key down, repeat is 3, key down, repeat is 4, key down, and repeat is 5, it is described that the continuous press events received by the second controller do not lose keys or have no disordered serial numbers, and a lift event corresponding to the continuous press event can be obtained, and the long press operation of the key is normally processed.

If the continuous press event received by the second controller is key down, repeat is 1, key down, repeat is 2, key down, repeat is 3, key down, repeat is 4, the continuous press event received by the second controller has a lost key, the key down is lost, and repeat is 5, but the serial number of the continuous press event is continuous, since the time difference of repeat after repeat is 1 is 50 ms, the time difference is very short, so the last few events do not have any influence, the lift event corresponding to the continuous press event can be obtained, and the long press operation of the key can be normally processed.

If the continuous pressing event received by the second controller is key down, repeat is 1, key down, repeat is 3, key down, repeat is 2, key down, repeat is 5, the continuous pressing event received by the second controller is not only the pressing event key down is lost, repeat is 4, but also the serial number of the continuous pressing event is disordered, the serial number of the discontinuous pressing event, namely key down and repeat is 3, is modified according to the continuous numbering rule, and the serial number of the subsequent pressing event is sequentially modified, namely the modified continuous pressing event is as follows: key down, 1, 2, 3, 4 to ensure its continuity.

If the continuous pressing event received by the second controller is key down, repeat is 1, key down, repeat is 4, key down, repeat is 3, key down, repeat is 5, key down, repeat is 2, the continuous pressing event received by the second controller does not lose keys, but the serial numbers of the continuous pressing events are disordered, the serial numbers of the discontinuous pressing events, namely key down and repeat, are obtained, the serial numbers of the discontinuous pressing events are modified according to the continuous numbering rule, and the serial numbers of the subsequent pressing events are sequentially modified, namely the modified continuous pressing events are as follows: key down, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 to ensure its continuity.

After the second controller 201 receives the press events, in order to ensure consistency, that is, each press event has one lift event, in the present application, a Timer mechanism is used, and after the second controller 201 receives the continuous press events, whether the lift events corresponding to the continuous press events are received within a preset time is determined, and if the lift events corresponding to the continuous press events are received, it is indicated that the second controller 201 receives a complete key event, the key event is normally processed; if the lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event is not received within the preset time, which indicates that the second controller 201 does not receive the complete key event, in order to ensure consistency, a lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event needs to be simulated to ensure the validity of the keys on the system.

The Timer mechanism is not only specific to continuous pressing events, but also used for judging whether a lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing events or the short pressing events is received within preset time when the pressing events are short pressing events, so that the system can be ensured to receive the complete pressing events and lifting events, and the effectiveness of keys on the system is ensured.

The method includes the steps of using a Timer mechanism, firstly judging whether a key event received by the second controller 201 is a continuous pressing event, if the key event received by the second controller 201 is the continuous pressing event, recording a key value of the continuous pressing event, starting a Timer, manually setting timeout time, and if the timeout time can be 500ms, checking whether a lifting event is received within preset time. If the lift-off event is received within the preset time, and the lift-off event received by the second controller 201 within the preset time may be a pair with the previously received continuous press-down event or may not be a pair with the previously received continuous press-down event, therefore, after the lift-off event is received within the preset time, it is required to find whether the key value of the lift-off event is recorded, that is, it is determined whether the lift-off event is a pair with the continuous press-down event. If the key value is a pair, it indicates that the system receives a complete key press and lift event, cancels the timer, distributes the lift event, and the second controller 201 processes the lift event, thereby ensuring the validity of the key on the system.

When judging whether the second controller 201 receives the lifting event within the preset time, if the second controller 201 receives the lifting event within the preset time, searching whether the key value of the lifting event is recorded, if the key value of the lifting event is recorded and the pressing event corresponding to the key value is the continuous pressing event, distributing the lifting event to form a complete continuous pressing event and the lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event, and normally processing the long-pressing operation of the key by the second controller 201. If the key value of the lift event is not recorded, which indicates that the second controller 201 does not receive the lift event corresponding to the continuous press event, the second controller 201 simulates a lift event corresponding to the continuous press event, and forms a complete continuous press event and a lift event corresponding to the continuous press event.

According to the display device provided by the embodiment of the application, whether the serial numbers of the continuous pressing events received by the second controller are continuous or not is judged aiming at the conditions that the keys are easy to lose and the serial numbers of the continuous pressing events are disordered when the keys are pressed for a long time, if the serial numbers of the continuous pressing events are continuous, the lifting events corresponding to the continuous pressing events are obtained, and the long pressing operation of the keys is normally processed; if the serial number of the continuous pressing event is discontinuous, the serial number of the discontinuous pressing event is obtained, the serial number of the discontinuous pressing event is modified according to the continuous numbering rule, and the serial number of the subsequent pressing event is sequentially modified, so that the continuity of receiving the continuous pressing event by the second controller is ensured. In addition to the fault-tolerant method of the continuous pressing event, fault-tolerant processing can be carried out on the lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event, after the system receives the continuous pressing event, in order to ensure consistency, the lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event needs to be received within preset time, and if the lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event is received within the preset time, the continuous pressing event and the lifting event are processed normally; if the lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event is not received within the preset time, the lifting event corresponding to the continuous pressing event is simulated, so that the effectiveness of the keys on the system is ensured, the problem of key disorder caused by key loss or disordered serial numbers is avoided, and the use experience of a user is greatly improved.
