一种视频点播方法及系统
本申请要求于 2006 年 10 月 19 日提交中国专利局、 申请号为 200610140962.2、 发明名称为"一种视频点播方法及系统"的中国专利申请的优 先权, 其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及视频点播领域, 特别是涉及一种视频点播方法及系统。
背景技术
视频点播(VOD, Video On Demand )是用户通过网络、 电话、 短信等方 式发送视频点播信息到视频点播中心,视频点播中心根据视频点播信息内容发 送相应的视频节目到用户接收端, 这样, 用户就可以在接收端收看到自己喜爱 的视频节目。
其中,使用短信方式进行视频点播不受时间和地域的限制, 可以更方便用 户使用。 请参阅图 1 , 为使用短信进行视频点播的流程图, 具体步骤如下: 步骤 101、 用户选择自己所喜爱的视频节目;
步骤 102、 用户通过短信方式传送用户信息、 服务组信息、 视频节目信息 至视频点播中心;
步骤 103、 视频点播中心依据视频节目信息查找到相应的视频节目, 发送 到与服务组信息相应的网络节点,再通过该网络节点将视频节目发送到相应用 户的接收端。
通过短信发送信息是目前比较普遍的一个互动的方式。但是一般由于短信 互动的方式比较简单,短信能够传递的信息量非常少, 所以对短信息的格式的 设计一般都不会有系统地考量。 然而, 对于 VOD业务, 需要一次性地通过短 信传送很多信息, 如用户信息、 服务组信息、 视频节目信息等, 这些信息都是 数字或字母格式, 输入非常麻烦, 又极容易出错, 并且在出错后, 用户和视频 点播中心都难于发现, 可能造成不必要的麻烦。
比如, 用户的用户组的数字号码为 12538, 但用户在输入时因疏忽输入用 户组号码为 13538, 如果用户组 13538不存在, 视频点播中心返回一个错误的 信息, 用户只需重新输入再发送; 如果用户组 13538存在, 那么视频点播中心 就会把该用户点播的视频节目发送用户组 13538所在的网络节点,这样该用户 就无法接收到自己所点播的视频节目,造成该用户财务上的损失和网络资源的 浪费。
此外, 短信在发送途中需要经过编码、 发送、 解码过程, 在该过程中, 可 能因为异常原因改变原来的意思,使视频点播中心理解出现歧义,从而做出错 误的判断, 同样会给用户造成不必要的损失。
发明内容
本发明所要解决的技术问题是提供一种视频点播方法,可以减少用户输入 点播信息的数据量, 并可防止点播信息出错给用户带来的不利影响。
本发明还提供一种视频点播系统,应用于上述视频点播方法, 可减少用户 输入点播信息的数据量, 并能够防止点播信息出错给用户带来的不利影响。

另夕卜,视频点播中心还将用户手机号码与服务组信息相关联,通过服务组 信息对应的网络节点发送视频节目, 可节约对网络资源的占用, 也使视频点播 中心可同时发送更多的视频节目。
此外, 用户手机发送短信中包含校验码,视频点播中心依据校验码对用户 端信息、 服务组信息进行验证, 防止出错给用户带来损失。
本发明可由发送界面自动在短信中生成相应的用户端信息、 服务组信息, 避免用户在短信中输入过多的信息。
附图说明
图 1为现有技术使用短信进行视频点播的方法流程图;
图 2为本发明一种视频点播方法实施例流程图;
图 3为本发明视频点播系统实施例示意图;
图 4为本发明另一种视频点播方法实施例流程图。
具体实施方式
为使本发明的上述目的、特征和优点能够更加明显易懂, 下面结合附图和 具体实施方式对本发明作进一步详细的说明。
本发明的核心思想是用户使用手机先在视频点播中心进行注册,视频点播 中心建立用户手机号码与用户端信息的对应关系,以后用户只需发送含有视频 节目信息的短信,视频点播中心即可根据用户手机号码查找到对应的用户端信 息, 将用户点播的视频节目发送到用户端信息指定的用户端。
请参阅图 2, 为本发明一种视频点播方法实施例流程图, 具体步骤如下: 步骤 201、 视频点播中心将发送端标识信息与用户端信息建立对应关系; 用户发送注册短信至视频点播中心,注册短信包括发送端标识信息和用户 端信息,视频点播中心将发送端标识信息与用户端信息建立对应关系, 并存储 在其数据库中。 这样, 用户手机完成在视频点播中心的注册, 视频点播中心返 回一个注册成功的信息。
发送端标识信息可为用户手机号码,用户端信息可为用户端机顶盒智能卡 号。一个用户端机顶盒智能卡号码能够与多个用户手机号码建立对应关系。 比 如一个家庭有一个用户端机顶盒设备,该家庭中几个成员的手机号码都可以与 该机顶盒设备中智能卡号相关联, 这样, 该家庭中的成员就可以使用自己的手 机短信进行视频点播。 步骤 202、 发送点播短信至视频点播中心, 所述点播短信包含所述发送端 标识信息和视频点播信息;
用户在手机注册成功后,发送点播短信到视频点播中心, 点播短信包含发 送端标识信息和视频点播信息。用户手机发送的短信中自动包含发送端标识信 息, 即用户手机号码, 视频点播信息由用户输入。
视频点播分为 VOD节目绑定点播和 VOD节目预览绑定点播, 用户可在 短信中输入不同的标识字段进行区分,用户输入的视频节目信息可直接输入视 频节目名称, 也可输入该视频节目对应的数据或字母标号。
步骤 203、 视频点播中心查找到与发送端标识信息对应的用户端信息; 视频点播中心在其内置的数据库中查找与发送端标识信息对应的用户端 信息。一个发送端标识信息只可对应唯一的用户端信息。 即一个用户的手机号 码只能与唯一的用户端机顶盒智能卡号码相关联, 这样,视频点播中心可准确 将用户点播的视频节目发送到指定的用户端。
步骤 204、视频点播中心将视频点播信息对应的视频节目发送到用户端信 息对应的用户端。
用户端信息可为用户端机顶盒内置的智能卡号码, 该号码是唯一。 用户端 可为机顶盒,视频点播中心将用户点播的视频节目发送到机顶盒后, 该机顶盒 对视频节目进行解码后通过播放器播放。
视频点播中心可利用用户端信息对该视频节目进行加密,只有该用户端信 息对应的用户端才能够对视频节目进行解密, 这样, 即时视频点播将视频节目 发错用户端, 接收的用户端仍不能收看到该视频节目, 在一定程度上, 可保护 用户利益不受损失。
其中,在步骤 201中, 用户发送到视频点播中心的注册短信还可包括服务 组信息,视频点播中心将发送端标识信息与服务组信息建立对应关系, 并通过 服务组信息对应的网络节点发送视频节目。
在较大的视频点播传输网络中, 如果每一个用户点播的视频节目,视频点 播中心的服务器都将视频节目发送到在整个网络上,再搜索唯一的用户端。整 个网络传输数据的压力就很大,服务器同时发送的视频节目数量就会受到网络 传输的限制。将整个视频点播网络划分为若干个小网络节点,每个网络节点对 应唯一的编号, 该编号可作为一个服务组信息。视频点播中心将用户手机号码 与服务组信息相关联,通过服务组信息对应的网络节点发送视频节目, 可节约 对网络资源的占用, 也使视频点播中心可同时发送更多的视频节目。
此外,在步骤 201中, 用户发送到视频点播中心的注册短信还可包括校验 码,校验码用于验证所述发送端标识信息、所述用户端信息和所述服务组信息。
例如, 用户手机卡号为 13225346767 , 用户组编号为 12538, 但是用户因 疏忽输成了 13225346767、 13538, 或因其它编码、 传输、 解码原因, 使用户 手机号码、 用户组编号误解为 13225346767、 13538。 如果没有校验, 视频点 播中心就会误把该用户归属到 13538组,以后该用户再点播的时候就会因为发 送到错误的服务组, 该用户就无法看到自己点播的视频节目。通过添加校验码 的方法, 用户一旦输入错误, 视频点播中心可通过校验码检测出来, 从而避免 出现类似错误。
如上例, 正常的校验码为 1+3+2+2+5+3+4+6+7+6+7+1+2+5+3+8=65 , 这 样用户 的正确输入应该为 132253467671253865 , 而输入错误时为 1322534671353865。 视频点播中心接收到错误信息后计算校验码 1+3+2+2+5+3+4+6+7+6+7+1+3+5+3+8=66,这就说明短信中存在错误,可以返 回错误信息, 提醒用户。
另外,在步骤 201中, 用户发送到视频点播中心的注册短信还可包括用户 密码。 所述用户密码用于在接收到解除关系短信时,将所述解除关系短信的用 户密码与所述注册短信中的用户密码相比较,如相同, 则解除发送端标识信息 和用户端信息的对应关系。
这样, 用户发送的注册短信, 其优选的格式为:
标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +用户端信息 +服务组信息 +校验码 +用户密码 其中, 标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +用户端信息 +服务组信息 +校验码可由 发送设备自动生成, 用户密码由用户在短信中输入。
点播短信的构成格式可为:
标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +视频点播信息
解除对应关系短信的构成格式为:
标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +用户密码 上述标识字段可如表 1所示:

请参阅图 3 , 为本发明视频点播系统实施例示意图, 包括短信发送端 301、 点播服务器 302、 用户端机顶盒 303; 其中:
短信发送端 301发送注册短信至点播服务器 302, 注册短信包括发送端标 识信息和用户端信息,点播服务器 302将发送端标识信息与用户端信息建立对 应关系, 并存储在其数据库中。 这样, 短信发送端 301完成在点播服务器 302 的注册, 点播服务器 302返回一个注册成功的信息到短信发送端 301。
短信发送端 301在点播服务器 302注册成功后,短信发送端 301发送点播 短信到点播服务器 302, 点播短信包含发送端标识信息和视频点播信息。 短信 发送端 301发送的短信中自动包含发送端标识信息。
用户端机顶盒 303 内置智能卡, 智能卡号码为用户端信息。 短信发送端 301可为手机, 发送端标识信息可为手机号码, 一个智能卡号码可与多个手机 号码相关联。
注册短信还可包括服务组信息和校验码,点播服务器 302通过服务组信息 对应的网络节点将发送视频节目; 校验码用于验证所述发送端标识信息、所述 用户端信息和所述 Λ良务组信息。
短信发送端 301发送到点播服务器 302的注册短信还可包括用户密码。如 果想解除发送端标识信息与用户端信息、服务组信息的对应关系,短信发送端 301可发送包含发送端标识信息和用户密码的短信至点播服务器 302, 点播服 务器 302解除发送端标识信息和所述用户信息的对应关系。
这样, 短信发送端 301发送的注册短信, 其优选的格式为:
标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +用户端信息 +服务组信息 +校验码 +用户密码 其中, 标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +用户端信息 +服务组信息 +校验码可由 短信发送端 301 自动生成, 用户密码由用户在短信中输入。
短信发送端 301发送的点播短信的构成格式可为:
标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +视频点播信息
短信发送端 301发送的解除对应关系短信的构成格式为:
标识字段 +发送端标识信息 +用户密码

步骤 402、 发送界面在短信中自动生成用户端信息, 并发送至视频点播中 心;
发送界面可为发送设备的发送界面 , 也可为用户端机顶盒内发送界面, 发送界面预置用户端信息, 可随用户短信一起发送, 进行视频节目的点播。
步骤 403、视频点播中心将视频点播信息对应的视频节目发送到用户端信 息对应的用户端。
一个发送端标识信息只可对应唯一的用户端信息。 这样,视频点播中心可 准确将用户点播的视频节目发送到指定的用户端。用户端信息可为用户端机顶 盒内置的智能卡号码, 该号码是唯一。 用户端可为机顶盒, 视频点播中心将用 户点播的视频节目发送到机顶盒后,该机顶盒对视频节目进行解码后通过播放 器播放。
发送界面在短信中还可自动生成服务组信息,视频点播中心通过所述服务 组信息对应的网络节点将发送视频节目。
发送界面在所述短信中还可自动生成校验码,所述校验码用于验证述发送 端标识信息、 用户端信息和服务组信息。
