Description
本發明係關於一種機上盒,特別是一種電視機上盒及應用程式伺服器。The present invention relates to a set top box, and more particularly to a set top box and an application server.
有鑑於有線第四台及數位電視的普及,目前家庭內通常會設置電視機上盒,以供用戶觀賞電視節目。然而,此些電視機上盒常伴隨其他加值功能,例如提供電視節目表、天氣資訊、及股市資訊等。藉此,用戶可方便的操作電視(或機上盒)之遙控器,而取得想了解的資訊。In view of the popularity of wired fourth and digital TVs, TV sets are usually set up in the home for users to watch TV programs. However, these TV sets are often accompanied by other value-added functions, such as providing TV program listings, weather information, and stock market information. In this way, the user can conveniently operate the remote control of the television (or the set-top box) and obtain the information that he wants to know.
然而,此些機上盒所提供的加值功能往往於出廠後就不會更動。或者,業者可透過更新韌體的方式替機上盒增添新的功能。但,對於用戶而言,不見得會知道如何更新韌體。且對於一般用戶而言,與其花心力研究如何更新韌體,常常寧願選擇放棄更新,直接觀賞電視節目。如此一來,廠商設計加值功能的美意,便大打折扣了。對用戶而言,無法充分利用加值功能的機會,對廠商而言,也失去增進收益的機會。However, the added value provided by these set-top boxes is often not changed after leaving the factory. Alternatively, the operator can add new features to the set-top box by updating the firmware. However, for the user, it is not necessary to know how to update the firmware. And for the average user, instead of researching how to update the firmware, they often prefer to give up the update and watch the TV program directly. As a result, the beauty of the manufacturer's design of the value-added function is greatly reduced. For users, the opportunity to fully utilize the value-added function cannot be fully utilized, and for the manufacturer, the opportunity to increase revenue is also lost.
再者,業者往往透過網頁的方式呈現加值功能之資訊。例如,用戶選擇電視節目表功能,機上盒便導向至特定之節目表網頁,讓用戶可看到網頁上的節目表。然而,當網路連線中斷或不穩定時,用戶便無法享受加值服務。Furthermore, operators often present information on value-added features through web pages. For example, if the user selects the TV program list function, the set-top box is directed to a specific program list web page, so that the user can see the program list on the web page. However, when the network connection is interrupted or unstable, the user cannot enjoy the value-added service.
總結上述,如何讓機上盒之加值功能利於更新,以及如何減少加值功能因網路連線異常的影響,便是相關廠商致力想要解決之問題。To sum up, how to make the value-added function of the set-top box facilitate the update, and how to reduce the impact of the value-added function due to abnormal network connection is the problem that the relevant manufacturers are trying to solve.
鑒於以上的問題,本發明在於提供一種電視機上盒及應用程式伺服器,藉以解決先前技術所存在之機上盒加值功能更新不容易,及加值功能因網路連線異常而無法使用的問題。In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a TV set box and an application server, so as to solve the problem that the set-top box value-adding function existing in the prior art is not easy to update, and the value-added function cannot be used due to abnormal network connection.

The set-top box 200 is connected to the application server 100 to selectively download the first program 121 of the plurality of applications 120 from the application server 100 (here, the first program 121 is downloaded as an example). Before executing the first program 121, the set-top box 200 automatically checks with the application server 100 whether the downloaded first program 121 is the latest version. If not, the set-top box 200 downloads the first version 121 of the latest version from the application server 100; if so, the first program 121 is executed.
第2圖係本發明之電視機上盒200之架構示意圖。合併參照第1圖及第2圖,電視機上盒200包含通訊模組210、永久記憶體220、輸入模組230、處理模組240、及暫存記憶體250。處理模組240電連接通訊模組210、永久記憶體220、輸入模組230、及暫存記憶體250。通訊模組210係支援網際網路協定網路(IP Network),以經由網際網路協定網路連線至應用程式伺服器100。永久記憶體220儲存自應用程式伺服器100下載之應用程式120(於此儲存第一程式121及第二程式122)。輸入模組230接收一輸入而產生對應第一程式121之一執行指令。於此,輸入模組230可為電視機上盒200之按鍵,或與其配對之遙控器之按鍵。處理模組240響應執行指令而透過通訊模組210向應用程式伺服器100檢查第一程式121是否為最新版本。若否,則處理模組240自應用程式伺服器100下載並執行最新版本之第一程式121。在此,處理模組240可為嵌入式處理器或其他等效之處理器,並可運行服務平台作業系統。暫存記憶體250暫存處理模組240執行的第一程式。Fig. 2 is a schematic view showing the structure of the set-top box 200 of the present invention. Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the television set 200 includes a communication module 210, a permanent memory 220, an input module 230, a processing module 240, and a temporary memory 250. The processing module 240 is electrically connected to the communication module 210, the permanent memory 220, the input module 230, and the temporary storage memory 250. The communication module 210 supports an Internet Protocol Network (IP Network) to connect to the application server 100 via the Internet Protocol network. The persistent memory 220 stores the application 120 downloaded from the application server 100 (where the first program 121 and the second program 122 are stored). The input module 230 receives an input to generate an execution instruction corresponding to the first program 121. Here, the input module 230 can be a button of the box 200 on the television set or a button of the remote controller paired therewith. The processing module 240 checks with the application server 100 via the communication module 210 in response to the execution command whether the first program 121 is the latest version. If not, the processing module 240 downloads and executes the latest version of the first program 121 from the application server 100. Here, the processing module 240 can be an embedded processor or other equivalent processor and can run a service platform operating system. The temporary memory 250 temporarily stores the first program executed by the processing module 240.
如第2圖所示,當處理模組240在執行電視機上盒200之加值服務時,電視機上盒200載有一瀏覽器框架260於暫存記憶體250,並在瀏覽器框架260內建構一應用程式管理平台270,以於應用程式管理平台270上運行第一程式121。在此,每一應用程式120均以支援網頁之語法編寫而成,例如HTML5或/及JavaScript。因此,電視機上盒200需要瀏覽器框架260(或稱網頁瀏覽器)以執行應用程式120。As shown in FIG. 2, when the processing module 240 performs the value-added service of the set-top box 200, the set-top box 200 carries a browser frame 260 in the temporary memory 250 and is in the browser frame 260. An application management platform 270 is constructed to run the first program 121 on the application management platform 270. Here, each application 120 is written in a syntax that supports web pages, such as HTML5 or/and JavaScript. Therefore, the set-top box 200 requires a browser framework 260 (or web browser) to execute the application 120.
如前述,電視機上盒200在執行應用程式120之前,會先檢查其版本。因此,當應用程式管理平台270於執行第一程式121前,會向應用程式伺服器100檢查所下載之第一程式121是否為最新版本。例如,電視機上盒200提供所儲存之應用程式120的版本號至應用程式伺服器100。應用程式伺服器100比對其版本號與自身儲存之相同應用程式之版本號,若自身儲存之版本號較新,則對應用程式進行更新。As described above, the TV set above 200 will check its version before executing the application 120. Therefore, when the application management platform 270 executes the first program 121, it checks with the application server 100 whether the downloaded first program 121 is the latest version. For example, the set-top box 200 provides the version number of the stored application 120 to the application server 100. The application server 100 updates the application version than the version number of the same application whose version number is stored by itself, if the version number stored by itself is newer.
第3、4圖係分別為本發明之中介程式280之介面示意圖(一)(二)。Figures 3 and 4 are respectively schematic diagrams of the interface of the intermediary program 280 of the present invention (1) (2).
合併參照第2、3圖所示,電視機上盒200包含一中介程式280,以於執行中介程式280時顯示一應用程式選單281,使得用戶可使用加值服務。於此係示例性地繪示應用程式選單281上陳列多個應用程式120,供用戶選擇而執行之。接下來,將以用戶透過前述輸入模組230選擇「遊戲」之應用程式120進行說明。如第4圖所示,應用程式選單281係呈現第二層之遊戲選單,在此係示例性的繪示多個遊戲(應用程式120),本發明非限於此。當用戶選擇其中之一應用程式120,如「俄羅斯方塊」,則中介程式280將向應用程式伺服器100檢查所下載之「俄羅斯方塊」應用程式是否為最新版本。Referring to Figures 2 and 3, the set-top box 200 includes a mediation program 280 for displaying an application menu 281 when the intermediary program 280 is executed, so that the user can use the value-added service. Here, the application menu 281 is exemplarily shown to display a plurality of applications 120 for the user to select and execute. Next, an application 120 in which the user selects "game" through the input module 230 will be described. As shown in FIG. 4, the application menu 281 presents a game menu of the second layer, and a plurality of games (applications 120) are exemplarily illustrated herein, and the present invention is not limited thereto. When the user selects one of the applications 120, such as "Tetris", the intermediary 280 will check with the application server 100 whether the downloaded "Tetris" application is the latest version.
於此,中介程式280係獨立於其他應用程式。當用戶透過前述輸入模組230選擇執行中介程式280後(如按下對應之功能鍵),處理模組240將執行中介程式280。應用程式120之版本更新,係受用戶選擇而進行。換言之,若用戶僅選擇一應用程式120,則其他應用程式120不會被更新,以避免佔用永久記憶體220的儲存空間,以及避免佔用過長的更新時間,影響用戶使用電視機上盒200。Here, the mediation program 280 is independent of other applications. After the user selects and executes the mediation program 280 through the input module 230 (such as pressing the corresponding function key), the processing module 240 executes the mediation program 280. The version update of the application 120 is performed by the user. In other words, if the user selects only one application 120, the other applications 120 will not be updated to avoid occupying the storage space of the permanent memory 220, and avoid taking up too long update time, affecting the user's use of the set-top box 200.
在一實施例中,電視機上盒200亦可內建原生程式,原生程式亦可適用於前述應用程式120之版本檢驗及更新過程。In an embodiment, the TV set 200 can also be built with a native program, and the native program can also be applied to the version verification and update process of the aforementioned application 120.
第5圖係為本發明之應用程式伺服器100之架構示意圖。如第5圖所示,應用程式伺服器100與電視機上盒200之間係經由網際網路協定網路400連接。應用程式伺服器100可包含網頁子伺服器140、資料庫子伺服器160、及檔案子伺服器180。Figure 5 is a block diagram showing the architecture of the application server 100 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 5, the application server 100 and the set-top box 200 are connected via the Internet Protocol Network 400. The application server 100 can include a web page sub-server 140, a database sub-server 160, and a file sub-server 180.
網頁子伺服器140提供一網頁登入介面,以供電視機上盒200登入連線,以提供合法使用者進行應用程式120及其資訊之管理、及歷史資料統計顯示等相關之應用作業及查詢。除此之外,網頁子伺服器140還可做為應用程式伺服器,處理與各個電視機上盒200之間的連線、驗證及應用程式120下載的服務作業以及應用程式歷史資料記錄與統計之相關處理作業。The web page server 140 provides a webpage login interface for the TV set-top box 200 to log in to provide legitimate users with application operations and queries related to the management of the application 120 and its information, and historical data display. In addition, the web page server 140 can also serve as an application server for processing connection with each of the set-top boxes 200, verification and application service downloads by the application 120, and application history data recording and statistics. Related processing jobs.
資料庫子伺服器160連線網頁子伺服器140,以儲存電視機上盒200之登入後之活動歷程記錄,如相關資訊及歷史資料等的儲存、處理、查詢與管理之用。若以一個應用程式之資料大小為1KB以及歷史存取資料為3KB,每天約有1萬個用戶存取來計算,則若要維持300天之線上儲存空間,需求量約需17GB。因此,對於此大容量的資料儲存需求並配合上述資料庫檔案系統要能互相連線切換機制,此資料之儲存設備必須採用外接式及穩定、安全、資料存取快速及可適合未來異地備援擴充等考量磁碟陣列儲存系統。The database sub-server 160 connects the webpage sub-server 140 to store the activity history records of the login box 200 of the television, such as the storage, processing, query and management of related information and historical data. If the size of an application is 1KB and the historical access data is 3KB, and there are about 10,000 users accessing it every day, if you want to maintain 300 days of online storage, the demand will be about 17GB. Therefore, for this large-capacity data storage requirement and in conjunction with the above-mentioned database file system, it is necessary to be able to switch to each other. The storage device of this data must be externally connected and stable, secure, fast in data access and suitable for future remote backup. Expansion and other considerations of the disk array storage system.
檔案子伺服器180連線至網頁子伺服器140及資料庫子伺服器160,並儲存應用程式120,以供電視機上盒200經由網頁子伺服器140下載應用程式120。將應用程式檔之儲存及傳輸處理與網頁子伺服器140及資料庫子伺服器160分開,主要可分散此兩類伺服器的作業處理負擔。此外,將此些大型之應用程式檔不直接儲存在資料庫系統中,亦可降低資料庫系統本身的負荷,未來當資料量增加或使用者增加後,將可以更有效率的方式來存取此一資料檔。The file sub-server 180 is connected to the web sub-server 140 and the database sub-server 160, and stores the application 120 for the set-top box 200 to download the application 120 via the web sub-server 140. Separating the storage and transmission processing of the application file from the web page server 140 and the database sub-server 160 mainly distributes the processing load of the two types of servers. In addition, these large application files are not directly stored in the database system, and the load on the database system itself can be reduced. In the future, when the amount of data increases or the number of users increases, it can be accessed in a more efficient manner. This information file.
如第5圖所示,網頁子伺服器140、資料庫子伺服器160、及檔案子伺服器180分別具有彼此備援的二伺服器主機300。亦即,網頁子伺服器140具有彼此備援的伺服器主機300a、300b;資料庫子伺服器160具有彼此備援的伺服器主機300c、300d;檔案子伺服器180分具有彼此備援的伺服器主機300e、300f。藉此,在一般情形下可以做為負載平衡之處理,同時也可避免因單一伺服器主機故障造成服務停頓。於此,應用程式伺服器100還包含路由器500及連接於上述伺服器主機300a-f之間的多個交換機600。As shown in FIG. 5, the web page sub-server 140, the database sub-server 160, and the archive sub-server 180 respectively have two server hosts 300 that are mutually redundant. That is, the web page sub-server 140 has server hosts 300a, 300b that are mutually redundant; the database sub-server 160 has server hosts 300c, 300d that are mutually redundant; the file sub-server 180 has servos that are mutually redundant. Hosts 300e, 300f. In this way, under normal circumstances, it can be handled as load balancing, and it can also avoid service stall caused by single server host failure. Here, the application server 100 further includes a router 500 and a plurality of switches 600 connected between the server hosts 300a-f.
綜上所述,根據本發明之電視機上盒200及應用程式伺服器100,電視機上盒200可自動對用戶所欲執行的應用程式120檢查並更新至最新版本,用戶無需費心學習如何更新。並且,用戶可自應用程式伺服器100選擇所欲使用的應用程式120,將其下載至電視機上盒200中使用。再者,由於應用程式120以下載至本地端的電視機上盒200中,若電視機上盒200與應用程式伺服器100之間的網路連線中斷或不穩,所下載之應用程式120仍可在離線環境下被執行,因此用戶仍可繼續使用加值服務。In summary, according to the set-top box 200 and the application server 100 of the present invention, the set-top box 200 can automatically check and update the latest version to the application 120 that the user wants to execute, and the user does not need to bother learning how to update. . Moreover, the user can select the application 120 to be used from the application server 100 and download it to the set-top box 200 for use. Moreover, since the application 120 is downloaded to the local TV set 200, if the network connection between the set top 200 and the application server 100 is interrupted or unstable, the downloaded application 120 remains. It can be executed in an offline environment, so users can continue to use the value-added service.
