Description

A kind of method for managing display device signal source
Technical field
The present invention relates to the display device technical field, be meant a kind of method for managing display device signal source especially.
Background technology
Display device is used to show various information, is widely used in aspects such as office, teaching, amusement, commercial exhibition.Existing display device comprises types such as cathode ray tube (CRT) display, LCD (LCD), light-emitting diode (LED) display, plasma scope (PDP), projector.
Can carry out the video signal displayed kind for display device at present increases day by day, therefore a part of display device especially large-screen display equipment such as projector all have more than one signal source interface usually, can receive different types of vision signal from multiple signal source equipment and show.With the projector is example, has the signal source interface of following kind usually: Video Graphics Array (VGA) interface, Digital Visual Interface (DVI) interface, S-terminal (S-Video) interface, composite video (Composite) interface, component vide (Component) interface etc.Can be by these interfaces from multiple different signal source equipment, for example: the different types of vision signals of reception such as computer, DVD player, video tape recorder show, vision signal can comprise VGA signal, DVI signal, S-Video signal, composite video signal, component video signal etc., the signal source interface that wherein has can receive the vision signal of more than one types again, and for example the VGA interface both can receive the VGA signal and also can receive component video signal.
Its system of display device of above-mentioned signal source interface forms as shown in Figure 1 for having of a standard, and whole display device is by electronic system 101, and power supply 102 and optical system 103 are formed.Wherein, power supply 102 is responsible for to each parts power supply; Various types of signal sources are linked into video processing module 105 by the signal source access interface 104 in the electronic system 101, and 105 pairs of signal sources of video processing module are handled the back and produced modulation intelligence control optical system 103 generation images.Whole system is controlled and is coordinated the work of each parts by kernel control module 106.
After display device starts, or after the signal source that is showing stopped to show, display device just may be in no show state, in this state, needs the search signal source to show for display device.In the prior art, the method in search signal source is in the display device, and kernel control module is by predefined order, by the state in video frequency processing chip request signal source, after inquiring effective signal source, obtain signal by this effective signal source and show.For example, comprise two video frequency processing chips of analog to digital converter (ADC) and Video Decoder (Video Decoder) in the display device, wherein the signal source that links to each other with ADC comprises VGA1, VGA2 and DVI, and the signal source that links to each other with Video Decoder comprises S-Video, Composite and Component; Then when display device search signal source, elder generation inquires about VGA1, VGA2 successively by ADC and whether DVI is the useful signal source, if three signal sources of VGA1, VGA2 and DVI are not the useful signal sources, inquire about S-Video, Composite successively by Video Decoder again and whether Component is the useful signal source, in this process, no matter which video frequency processing chip to have inquired effective signal source by, display device just stops search, obtain signal by this effective signal source, and show.
Above-mentioned searching method has following shortcoming:
1) because in this searching method, by kernel control module control of video decoding chip signal source is inquired about one by one, all be the carrying out of serial to the status poll of each signal source input terminal, need expend the long time, cause the unnecessary wait of user, wasted user's time.
2) in addition, if in above-mentioned searching method, the signal source that display device searches is not that the user wishes the signal source that shows, for example, there are two signal source VGA2 and S-Video simultaneously effectively in the display device, that the user wishes to show is S-Video, and then the user has only the mode of searching for again by manual setting to realize the search again of signal source, can search S-Video.
In addition, along with enriching of display device additional function, many display devices are by increasing the signal source that new add-on module receives some non-traditional meanings, as shown in Figure 1, receive radio signal source for increasing wireless module 109, among Fig. 1 109 also can substitute with other forms of add-on module, as card reader, just can read the SD card by card reader, picture on the flash cards such as CF card is as signal source, these are again by traditional video interface then, be linked into display device as VGA, make display device can receive more signal source, in fact increased the signal source quantity of display device by traditional video interface.
The adding of non-traditional meaning signal source such as above-mentioned radio signal source, make that the signal source management of display device is difficult more, because the video output interface of common add-on module, the i.e. interface that links to each other with the video input interface of display device, its output validity does not rely on accessory module outside source validity.With the additional wireless modules is example, and as shown in fig. 1, wireless module is used for receiving the wireless display with process user, and user's wireless video signal is changed into the VGA signal of standard, and outputs to display device by VGA1.Though the video output interface VGA1 that wireless module is connected with display device has vision signal output all the time, if but current not wireless video starts, then this vision signal only is the video standard signal of wireless module self, the VGA of wireless module output is that signal, i.e. continuously effective are arranged always in this case.If radio signal source also as a classical signal source, by video decoding chip the radio signal source state is inquired about, then inquire at every turn and promptly think after the radio signal source and found signal and it is shown, like this will be owing to not having the demonstration that makes the mistake of real wireless video signal.
At present for the processing method of these non-traditional meaning signal sources, normally the user is if use the signal source of add-on module then to need manual selection, and this method has been because for the user has increased operation easier, thereby limited the use of non-traditional meaning signal source.
Summary of the invention
In view of this, the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of method for managing display device signal source, this method can be saved the time in display device search signal source.
For achieving the above object, the invention provides a kind of method for managing display device signal source, this method comprises:

Embodiment
For making the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention is described in further detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Main thought of the present invention is that display device detects simultaneously by the signal source interface to self, determines the state of signal source, according to the signal source state of determining signal source is handled then.Overview flow chart of the present invention as shown in Figure 2, concrete steps are as follows:
Step 201, display device detect simultaneously by the signal source interface to self, determine the state in above-mentioned interface respective signal source;
The signal source state that step 202, basis are determined is handled signal source.
Realization detects simultaneously to the signal source interface, a kind of method is that the interface for each signal source correspondence is provided with video frequency processing chip correspondingly, for example, be ADC of each VGA interface configuration, be ADC of each DVI interface configuration, for each S-Video interface is joined a Video Decoder, then after the system start-up, all video frequency processing chips detect self state by the signal source that interface connected simultaneously, and notify kernel control module after detecting effective or invalid signal source.
Another kind method is signalization source validity detection module in display device.As shown in Figure 3, signal source validity detection module 300 comprises detecting sensor 301, signal processing circuit 302, microprocessor 303 and communication interface 304.Wherein, detecting sensor 301 can be mechanical pick-up device or optical pickocff, whether be used for the detection signal source interface has hardware to insert and extracts, it also can be electronic sensor, directly whether the detection signal source interface has inserted the useful signal source, and the form of testing result with the signal of telecommunication is sent in the microprocessor 303 by signal processing circuit 302; Microprocessor 303 is handled the signal of telecommunication that is sent to wherein again, obtain this effective or invalid information in signal source interface respective signal source, and sending the information obtained to kernel control module by communication interface 304 and communication interface 305 in the kernel control module, the information in the kernel control module of sending to comprises signal source sign and effectively or invalid event information.Input signal interface for some kind, DVI interface for example, because the index signal that himself provides sign whether to have corresponding signal source to insert, for example the 14th pin of DVI interface provides this signal, and can directly link to each other with microprocessor 303, therefore in described signal source validity detection module 300, for this class input signal interface, do not need joint detection transducer 301 and signal processing circuit 302, but directly link to each other with microprocessor 303.
In addition, for the display device that has comprised the signal source that increases by add-on module, in above-mentioned two kinds of detection methods, all need independent detection for the signal source that increases by add-on module.
Owing to remove outside the video interface between add-on module and the display device, be used for the data communication interface 306 of transmitting control data in addition, 307, so in the present invention, for add-on module, determine by after self inserting effective signal source, directly this signal source sign and effective status are passed through data communication interface 306,307 send kernel control module to, and add-on module is behind its effective status of notice kernel control module, also with self signal source interface message and signal source data path relevant information such as video frequency processing chip type notice kernel control module, add-on module can also be with the priority notice kernel control module of signal source; When the signal source that inserts by add-on module by effectively become invalid after, add-on module is notified kernel control module with this signal source sign and disarmed state by data communication interface, after kernel control module receives notice, this signal source object is deleted.Above-mentionedly be meant that effectively the signal of the signal source input that inserts by add-on module is the correct vision signal that directly can show.
By this detection mode, solved in the prior art and can't distinguish the video standard signal of radio signal source and the problem of real vision signal by video frequency processing chip to add-on module.
To among the present invention, signal source is handled detailed description below by specific embodiment according to the signal source state of determining.
In signal source management method first embodiment of the present invention, display device waits no show state following time just starting or stoping demonstration, video frequency processing chip in the display device carries out validity to all signal sources simultaneously and detects, and adopts above-mentioned first kind of detection method here.After detecting a certain signal source and being in effective status, this signal source validity event of video frequency processing chip notice kernel control module, kernel control module promptly stops to receive other signal source validity event, and shows the detected signal source that is in effective status.
In the present embodiment, owing to detect by the state of validity of video frequency processing chip to signal source, set up between this video frequency processing chip and the signal source interface and be connected, then for this signal source, its data path is set up, so display device can directly show the detected signal source that is in effective status.In addition, for the signal source that increases by add-on module, because after this signal source of notice kernel control module is effective status, add-on module is also notified kernel control module by data communication interface 306,307 with signal source data path relevant informations such as signal source interface message and video frequency processing chip types, display device then can be set up the data path of this signal source according to these information, and shows the detected signal source that is in effective status by the data path of setting up.
Second embodiment of signal source management method of the present invention and the difference part of first embodiment are: the validity of signal source detects is undertaken by above-mentioned second method.Because in second kind of detection method, validity detection to signal source is undertaken by the signal source validity detection module that increases, do not pass through video frequency processing chip, so after the signal source that detects the access of non-add module is effective, be merely able to know the signal source sign, and can't know the interface message and the video frequency processing chip type of this signal source.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, definition signal source object in kernel control module in advance, each signal source object comprises following attribute: signal source sign and signal source data path relevant information, signal source data path relevant information comprises signal source interface message and video frequency processing chip type at least.Connected a plurality of interfaces at a video frequency processing chip, also promptly connected under the situation of a plurality of signal sources, signal source data path relevant information can also comprise the signal connector position.For example, ADC links to each other with signal source 1, signal source 2, signal source 3 and signal source 4 by two bidirectional switchs, and the connector position of signal source 1 is 11, and the position of signal source 2 is 12, and the position of signal source 3 is 21, and the position of signal source 4 is 22; Wherein, the position of double-digit ten first bidirectional switchs of bit representation, unit numbers is represented the position of second bidirectional switch.In addition, the attribute of signal source object can also comprise signal source name, shows this title with the screen display (OSD) by display device to the user.The flow process of present embodiment as shown in Figure 4, concrete steps are as follows:
Step 401, kernel control module obtain signal source sign and validity incident.
In this step, signal source sign and validity incident that kernel control module obtains, can to be signal source validity detection module have signal source to be inserted into or after signal source becomes effectively detecting at interface, sends kernel control module to by communication interface 304,305; Also can be add-on module after detecting signal source by its access and becoming effectively, by the validity event notice kernel control module of data communication interface with additional signal source sign and respective signal source.
Step 402, kernel control module identify the data path relevant information that obtains the respective signal source object according to this signal source, and set up data path according to these information for this signal source, and the signal to this signal source input shows then.
In first and second embodiment of the present invention,, significantly reduced the time of sequential search signal source by the state of validity of while sensed signal sources.But, in practice, tend to occur the simultaneously effective situation of a plurality of signal sources, in this case, the signal source of the required demonstration of user has only a kind of, can only propose the third embodiment of the present invention by the hand-operated forced problem of search again of user for solving in this case.
In the third embodiment of the present invention, display device waits no show state following time just starting or stoping demonstration, simultaneously all signal sources being carried out validity detects, concrete detection method can be identical with first or second embodiment, just kernel control module is not after detecting effective signal source in the present embodiment, just stop to receive other signal source validity event, but write down all detected useful signal sources, the useful signal source according to record shows then.
In the present embodiment, need in display device, to set in advance the priority of each signal source.After this, the flow process of present embodiment as shown in Figure 5, concrete steps are as follows:
Step 501, display device are carried out validity to all signal sources simultaneously and are detected just starting or stoping no show state such as demonstration following time.
Step 502, kernel control module write down all detected useful signal sources with and pairing priority.
In this step, can be to write down detected useful signal source and priority by the form of tabulating in the useful signal source, this tabulation can be as shown in table 1:
The signal source sign Priority
ID_Source1 PRI1
ID_Source2 PRI2
ID_Source3 PRI3
…… ……
Step 503, select signal source to show according to priority.
Select signal source to show according to priority, normally in tabulation, select the highest signal source of priority to show.In addition, if adopted above-mentioned first kind of detection method in the present embodiment, then display device can be directly be identified at according to signal source and obtains signal on the data path of having set up and show; If adopted above-mentioned second kind of detection method in the present embodiment, then display device also needs to identify according to signal source, inquire about the signal source data path relevant information of this signal source object correspondence, set up the data path of this signal source again according to these information, obtain signal by the data path of setting up then and show.
It more than is explanation to third embodiment of the invention.In the 3rd embodiment, solved detecting a plurality of useful signals source after, how display device selects the problem of signal source.But in some cases, the user may not wish that some signal source is shown, and also may wish to have only a certain class signal source to be shown, and for this reason, has proposed the of the present invention the 4th and the 5th embodiment, is described below.
In the 4th embodiment, forbidden signal source is set in system in advance, method to set up can be that the user is provided with by software interface.
After this, the flow process of present embodiment as shown in Figure 6, concrete steps are as follows:
Step 601, display device are carried out validity to all signal sources simultaneously and are detected just starting or stoping no show state such as demonstration following time.
Step 602~604, display device judge respectively whether detected signal source is forbidden signal source, if then do not write down this signal source; Otherwise writing down this signal source is useful signal source and this signal source corresponding priorities, and recording mode is identical with above-mentioned steps 502.
Step 605, display device select signal source to show according to priority.
In the 5th embodiment, contextual model and pairing signal source thereof are set in system in advance.Being provided with of contextual model can be carried out according to concrete needs, and pairing signal source also can the respective flexible setting under every kind of contextual model.For example, theater mode and Report mode can be set, under theater mode, only allow each Video signal source to be shown, under Report mode, only allow each Graphic signal source to be shown.
In display device, can set in advance the contextual model of acquiescence, when the user need be provided with other contextual model, display device can show contextual model selection interface to the user, after certain contextual model had been selected at the user by selecting interface, display device was set at this contextual model the contextual model of current use.
The flow process of present embodiment as shown in Figure 7, concrete steps are as follows:
Step 701, display device are carried out validity to all signal sources simultaneously and are detected just starting or stoping no show state such as demonstration following time.
Step 702, display device obtain the contextual model of current use, and obtain its pairing signal source according to the contextual model of current use.
Step 703~705, judge whether detected signal source is the pairing signal source of contextual model of current use respectively, if, then writing down this signal source is useful signal source and this signal source corresponding priorities, and recording mode is identical with above-mentioned steps 502; Otherwise, do not write down this signal source.
Step 706, display device select signal source to show according to priority.
In the present embodiment, can also set in advance forbidden signal source, in this case, the flow process of present embodiment as shown in Figure 8, Fig. 8 is identical with most of step among Fig. 7, the difference be to judge the pairing signal source of contextual model that detected signal source is current use in the step 803 after, elder generation's execution in step 804: judge whether this signal source is forbidden signal source, if then execution in step 805, step 805 is identical with step 704; Otherwise, execution in step 806, step 806 is identical with step 705; Step 807 after this is identical with step 706.
In the above-described embodiments,, show according to detected useful signal source then, reduced the time of signal source searching by the validity of while sensed signal sources.But in some cases, the user wishes just can preferentially show this signal source after having inserted certain signal source, be the plug and play of signal source, for realizing this function, and further increase the flexibility of signal source management, proposed the sixth embodiment of the present invention, be described below.For convenience of description, in the 6th embodiment,, can consult and carry out to using first kind of detection method only to using above-mentioned second kind of detection method to be elaborated.
In the sixth embodiment of the present invention, each signal source object of definition display device in display device is identical among the attribute that each signal source object comprises and second embodiment in advance.Also need to preestablish the priority of each signal source in the present embodiment, can in the signal source object, increase the setting that priority attribute is realized priority for each signal source object.
In the present embodiment, two tabulations need be set in display device, one of them is the tabulation of available signal source, is used for storing effective signal source in the display device; Another is the tabulation of search signal source, the tabulation of search signal source is on the basis of available signal source tabulation, arrangement that process is certain or filtering rule form, search signal source tabulation is used for display device and directly searches signal source therein and show, because the signal source in the tabulation of search signal source forms again through arrangement or filtering rule, can reduce search time further so display device is searched signal source therein.
Because it is its memory allocated space in advance that common tabulation needs, its way of realization underaction for addressing this problem, can adopt the form of annular tabulation to realize above-mentioned two tabulations.Below it is specifically described.
In the present embodiment, each element in the tabulation of available signal source all comprises: the pointer Pointer_Previous, the pointer Pointer_Source of directional signal source object, the pointer Pointer_Next of the back element of sensing that point to previous element.In addition, also need a current available signal source pointer Pointer_CurrentValidSource who points to this tabulation currentElement, be sky if this is tabulated, then this pointer also is empty; Tabulate as shown in Figure 9 in the available signal source that has comprised two above elements.
The form of search signal source tabulation, identical with the tabulation of available signal source, each element wherein also all comprises: the pointer Pointer_Previous, the pointer Pointer_Source of directional signal source object, the pointer Pointer_Next of the back element of sensing that point to previous element.In addition, also need a first search signal source pointer Pointer_FirstSearchingSource who points to the current search signal source pointer Pointer_CurrentSearchingSource of this tabulation current search object and point to this first element of tabulating, be sky if this is tabulated, then these two pointers also are empty; This search signal source tabulation as shown in figure 10.
In the testing process of signal source validity detection module to signal source, signal source is effective, signal source is invalid if detected, or signal source is inserted into, when extracting, all can cause the change of above-mentioned two tables.Describe respectively below.
Signal source is inserted into or signal source becomes effectively when signal source validity detection module detects, behind the notice display device kernel control module, after perhaps add-on module is notified kernel control module by data communication interface with the effective status of signal source, display device to two flow processs that change of table as shown in figure 11, concrete steps are as follows:
Step 1101, with signal source sign and signal source validity event notice kernel control module.
In fact this step comprises two kinds of situations: first kind is the validity detection module after detecting that signal source is inserted into or signal source becomes effectively, by communication interface notice kernel control module this signal source sign and respective signal source validity event; Second kind is add-on module by the validity event of data communication interface with additional signal source sign and respective signal source, and other attributes notice kernel control modules such as priority.
After step 1102, kernel control module receive signal source sign and respective signal source validity event, obtain the corresponding signal source object of this signal source sign, before the corresponding current available signal source pointer of available signal source tabulation element pointed, increase an element, the pointer that points to the signal source object in the element that increases is the pointer of the signal source object that obtains, and element that current available signal source pointed should be increased.
In this step, because for the signal source that inserts by add-on module, the attribute of its signal source object is the data communication interface by add-on module and kernel control module, directly send kernel control module to, in this case, in this step, be actually kernel control module earlier for this signal source foundation comprises the signal source object of attributes such as this signal source sign, priority, and then obtain the pointer of this signal source object.And for the signal source sign and the validity event that transmit by the communication interface in signal validity detection module and the kernel control module, this signal source identify pairing signal source to as if pre-defined in display device, so kernel control module is the pointer that obtains this signal source object by this signal source sign.
In addition, because the tabulation of available signal source is an annular tabulation, have three kinds of situations so this step increases unit in the tabulation of available signal source in reality is carried out: first kind of situation is that the tabulation of available signal source is original for empty, then this step is exactly directly to generate an element that comprises the pointer of signal source object that obtains, the pointer of the pointer of the previous element of sensing of this element and the back element of sensing is sky, and corresponding current available signal source this element of pointed of will tabulating; Second kind of situation is, the tabulation of available signal source had only an element originally, then this step is exactly to generate an element that comprises the pointer of signal source object that obtains, this element middle finger all points to original element in the tabulation to the pointer of previous element and the pointer of the back element of sensing, and the pointer of the previous element of sensing of original element all points to newly-generated element with the pointer that points to a back element in will tabulating, corresponding current available signal source this newly-generated element of pointed of will tabulating then; The third situation is, element more than one has been arranged in the tabulation of original available signal source, then in this step be exactly, at first generate an element that comprises the pointer of signal source object that obtains, and this element is inserted into behind current available signal source pointed element and this element between the element, then with the newly-generated element of current available signal source pointed, this situation illustrates that by accompanying drawing for example tabulate as shown in figure 12 in the available signal source behind the increase element in available signal source tabulation as shown in Figure 9.
The timestamp of step 1103, the source tabulation of modification available signal.This step can be that timestamp is added an operation, and timestamp is used for the change number of times of identification list.
Step 1104, inquiry are also judged the current state of display device, if the current state of display device is a search condition, and execution in step 1105,1106,1107 and subsequent step; If the current state of display device is a show state, execution in step 1106, process ends then; If the current state of display device is a wait state, execution in step 1106, execution in step 1107 then.
In this step, query display equipment current state, be to realize by the variable of inquiring about the tag system state that in display device, is provided with in advance, this variable can have three values, correspond respectively to search condition, show state and wait state,, also do not generate the tabulation of search signal source when system just starts, when also not showing, this variate-value is the value of corresponding wait state; When display device showed, this variate-value was the value of corresponding show state; When not demonstration of display device, when the tabulation of search signal source being searched for, this variate-value is the value of corresponding search condition.
Step 1105, stop search, execution in step 1106 then.
Owing to be under the search condition tabulation of search signal source made amendment at display device and can cause system mistake, so at first will stop search to the tabulation of search signal source.
Step 1106, read the corresponding current available signal source pointer element pointed of available signal source tabulation, priority according to this element respective signal source object, this element is inserted into the relevant position of search signal source tabulation, and revises the timestamp of search signal source tabulation.
In this step, element is inserted into the relevant position of tabulating in the search signal source, is implemented as follows: suppose that current available signal source pointed element institute respective signal source object is a signal source 1 in the tabulation of available signal source, its corresponding priorities is PRI1.Then be at first to read PRI1, then in the tabulation of search signal source, with the first search signal of current search signal source pointed source pointer element pointed, whether the priority of judging this element institute respective signal source object is lower than PRI1, if then before this element, increase an element, signal source pointer to object in the element that increases is the pointer of signal source 1, and current search signal source pointer and first search signal source pointer are all pointed to the element of this increase, finishes this step then; Otherwise, with the next element of current search signal source pointed, continue then to judge whether the priority of this element respective signal source object is lower than PRI1, if, before this element, increase an element, the signal source pointer to object of the element that increases is the pointer of signal source 1, and with the element that current search signal source pointed should increase, finishes this step then; Otherwise, with the next element of current search signal source pointed, proceed to judge again, and increase element or search downwards according to judged result.If all signal source priority all are higher than this signal source in the former search signal source tabulation, then join this signal source behind last element in the tabulation of former search signal source and finish this step.
The signal source object of step 1107, the first search signal of current search signal source pointed source pointed that search signal source tabulation is corresponding.
In this step, by current search signal source pointer is consistent with first search signal source pointed, realization shows from first element search start signal source of search signal source tabulation, like this, under the situation of search signal source tabulation height ordering according to priority, begin to search for and show from the highest signal source of priority with regard to having realized.
Step 1108, obtain the signal source object of current search signal source pointed, and set up data path according to the signal source data path relevant information in these signal source object properties.

Step 1303, stop search.
Step 1304, the signal source object institute corresponding element from the tabulation of search signal source in the deletion step 1301, and the timestamp of modification search listing.
In this step, delete procedure with current search pointed search listing header element, then from this element, judges that whether the pairing signal source object of this element is the signal source object in the step 1301, if then deletion at first; Otherwise with the next element of current search pointed, judge again, and delete or continue according to judged result and search, till finding signal source object and deletion.The detailed process of deletion element is the inverse process of addition element, can carry out with reference to step 1102 in implementation procedure.
Step 1305, the signal source object institute corresponding element from the tabulation of available signal source in the deletion step 1301, for example, after the deletion element x, this tabulation becomes the situation among Figure 14 in Figure 10, revises the timestamp of available signal source tabulation then.
For signal source sign and invalid event is that in this step, kernel control module also needs to delete this signal source object that writes down in the display device under the situation of add-on module by data communication interface notice kernel control module.
