图 1为本发明一种媒体同步方法的流程图;
图 2 为本发明实施例中基于下一代网络 (NGN , Next Generation Network ) 的 IPTV系统的组成结构示意图;
图 3为本发明实施例一的媒体同步方法的流程图;
图 4为本发明实施例二的媒体同步方法的流程图。 具体实施方式
下面结合附图和具体实施例对本发明的技术方案进一步详细阐述。 本发明提供了一种媒体同步方法, 旨在从多个相关的媒体流中选择一 个媒体流作为参考媒体流, 并根据参考媒体流的播放位置, 调整其他相关 媒体流的播放位置, 从而实现多个媒体流的播放同步。 如图 1 所示, 该方 法主要包括以下步骤:
步骤 101 , 确定需要同步的多个媒体流, 并选择其中一个媒体流作为参 考媒体流。
因为只有媒体文件相同的媒体流才有同步播放的必要, 所以需要同步 的多个媒体流必须是从媒体文件相同的媒体流中选择的。 参考媒体流的选 择依据可以根据实际需要确定, 本发明中不做限定。
步骤 102, 获取参考媒体流的时间参数, 该时间参数包括播放绝对时间 和播放相对时间。
对于媒体播放, 表述媒体播放位置的参数通常是偏移时间, 也称播放 相对时间 , 其表示当前媒体播放相对媒体文件起始位置的偏移时间。 所谓 播放绝对时间, 是指获取播放相对时间时的系统时间。 系统通过播放绝对 时间和播放相对时间, 就可以确定在某一时间媒体播放的准确位置。
步骤 103 , 根据参考媒体流的时间参数, 调整多个媒体流中的其他媒体 流的播放状态与参考媒体流同步。
具体同步处理包括: 首先根据参考媒体流的播放绝对时间, 获取其他 各媒体流在播放绝对时间所对应的播放相对时间; 然后将获取的其他各媒 体流的播放相对时间分别与参考媒体流的播放相对时间进行比较, 得到播 放相对时间的差值; 再根据其他各媒体流与参考媒体流的播放相对时间的 差值, 调整其他各媒体流的播放状态与参考媒体流同步。
对应上述媒体同步方法, 本发明还提供了一种对应的媒体同步系统, 包括: 业务控制模块和媒体功能模块。 其中, 业务控制模块, 用于确定需 要同步的多个媒体流, 选择其中一个媒体流作为参考媒体流, 并从媒体功 能模块获取参考媒体流的时间参数, 该时间参数包括播放绝对时间和播放 相对时间; 还用于根据参考媒体流的时间参数, 通知媒体功能模块调整多 个媒体流中其他媒体流的播放状态。 媒体功能模块, 用于提供媒体服务, 并为业务控制模块提供媒体流的时间参数; 还用于根据业务控制模块的通 知, 调整多个媒体流中其他媒体流的播放状态, 将其他媒体流调整到与参 考媒体流相同的播放相对时间。
下面结合图 2所示基于 NGN的 IPTV系统, 对本发明的媒体同步方法 进一步详细阐述。 在图 2所示 IPTV系统的结构中, 终端可以是数字电视的 机顶盒、 掌上电脑 (PDA, Personal Digital Assistant ) 等设备。 媒体功能模 块是 IPTV系统中内容分发网络( CDN , Content Delivery Network ) 的主要 组成部分, 其为终端提供媒体服务, 包括媒体控制和媒体交付等功能。 媒 体控制功能在不同的标准中, 其名称和结构有所不同, 在国际电信联盟电 信 标 准 化 部 门 ( ITU-T , International Telecommunication Union Telecommunications standardization sector )标准中, 媒体控制功能对应内容 分发和存储 ( Content Delivery and Storage ); 在用于高级网络的通信和互联 网融合的业务和协议 ( TISPAN, Telecommunication and Internet converged Services and Protocols for Advanced Networking )中对应媒体功能( MF , Media Function ); 在开放 IPTV论坛 (OIPF, Open IPTV Forum )标准中对应集群 控制 (CC, Clustered Control ) 和媒体交付功能 ( CDF )。 业务控制模块是 业务的控制功能实体, 包括该业务的使用权限控制、 业务逻辑控制等等; 对应 IPTV的业务控制模块, 负责 IPTV业务的逻辑控制, 所有 IPTV业务 都在该业务控制模块的控制下进行。 业务会话控制模块, 负责 NGN中的 IP
多媒体子系统( IMS , IP Multimedia Subsystem )控制功能, 负责所有 IMS 信令的统一控制。
其中, IPTV业务控制模块, 用于确定需要同步的多个媒体流, 选择其 中一个媒体流作为参考媒体流, 并从媒体功能模块获取参考媒体流的时间 参数, 该时间参数包括播放绝对时间和播放相对时间; 还用于根据参考媒 体流的时间参数, 通知媒体功能模块调整多个媒体流中其他媒体流的播放 状态。 媒体功能模块, 用于提供媒体服务, 并为业务控制模块提供媒体流 的时间参数; 还用于根据业务控制模块的通知, 调整多个媒体流中其他媒 体流的播放状态 , 将其他媒体流调整到与参考媒体流相同的播放相对时间。 例如: 图 2中, IPTV业务控制模块确定需要同步的媒体流 1和媒体流 2, 并选择媒体流 1为参考媒体流, 从媒体功能模块获取媒体流 1的时间参数; 根据媒体流 1 的时间参数, 通知媒体功能模块调整媒体流 2的播放状态, 该通知中携带媒体流 1 的时间参数; 媒体功能模块接收到通知后, 根据媒 体流 1的时间参数调整媒体流 2的播放状态,将媒体流 2调整到与媒体流 1 相同的播放相对时间, 从而实现媒体流 2和媒体流 1的播放同步。
需要说明的是, 本发明中需要同步的多个媒体流既可以是由相同的媒 体功能模块来控制的, 也可以是由不同的媒体功能模块来控制的。 另外, 本发明的媒体同步方法适用于媒体推荐业务, 并且媒体同步操作既可以在 媒体推荐过程中执行, 也可以在媒体推荐后的媒体播放过程中执行。 下面 结合具体实施例进行说明。
在图 3 所示的实施例一中, 媒体同步操作发生在媒体推荐后的媒体播 放过程中, 且需要同步的多个媒体流(媒体流 1、 媒体流 2 )是由不同的媒 体功能模块来控制。 如图 3所示, 媒体同步主要包括以下步骤:
步骤 301, 通过媒体推荐的方式, 终端 1 (媒体推荐的主动方)与媒体 功能模块 1建立起相应的媒体流, 终端 2 (媒体推荐的被动方)与媒体功能
模块 2建立起相应的媒体流。
一个业务网络中的终端 ί、终端 2分别与媒体功能模块 1和媒体功能模 块 2建起相关的媒体流服务。 这两个相关的媒体流是通过媒体推荐的方式 建立的, 例如: 终端 1的用户将其正在播放的媒体流推荐给终端 2的用户, 让终端 2的用户一同观看; 那么在推荐之后, 终端 1与媒体功能模块 1建 立起相应的媒体流, 终端 2与媒体功能模块 2建立起相应的媒体流。
步驟 302, IPTV业务控制模块选择媒体流 1作为参考媒体流, 并通过 业务会话控制模块发起获取媒体流 1时间参数的请求到媒体功能模块 1。
需要说明的是, 在实际应用中, 媒体流的同步请求既可以由终端 1 或 终端 2来发起, 也可以来自 IPTV业务控制功能模块自身; 当 IPTV业务控 制功能模块获知有媒体流同步需求时, 才开始执行步骤 302的操作。
步骤 303 ,媒体功能模块 1通过业务会话控制模块返回媒体流 1的时间 参数给 IPTV业务控制模块, 该时间参数包括: 播放绝对时间和播放相对时 间。
所谓播放相对时间, 是指当前媒体流 1 的播放相对于媒体文件起始位 置的偏移时间; 播放绝对时间, 是指获取该偏移时间时的系统时间。
步驟 304 305 , IPTV业务控制模块通过业务会话控制模块, 请求媒体 功能模块 2根据媒体流 1的时间参数修改媒体流 2的播放状态。
在发送给媒体功能模块 2的请求中, 携带了媒体流 1 的时间参数, 即 媒体流 1 的播放绝对时间和播放相对时间, 这是媒体功能模块 2调整媒体 流 2播放状态的依据。
步骤 306~308, 媒体功能模块 2根据请求中的时间参数, 调整媒体流 2 的播放状态, 并通过业务会话控制模块返回确认响应给 IPTV 业务控制模 块。
媒体功能模块 2根据请求中的时间参数 (媒体流 1 的播放绝对时间和
播放相对时间), 计算媒体流 2与媒体流 1在播放相对时间上的差值, 然后 根据该差值调整媒体流 2 当前的播放相对时间, 进而实现媒体流 2的播放 状态与媒体流 1的播放状态同步。
在图 4所示的实施例二中, 媒体同步操作发生在媒体推荐过程中, 且 需要同步的多个媒体流(媒体流 1、 媒体流 2 )是由不同的媒体功能模块来 控制。 如图 4所示, 媒体同步主要包括以下步骤:
步驟 401 , 终端 1 (媒体推荐的主动方 ) 向 IPTV业务控制模块请求媒 体推荐业务, 并在请求中携带终端 1 当前播放的媒体流 1 的时间参数, 即 媒体流 1的播放绝对时间和播放相对时间。
步驟 402 , IPTV业务控制模块向终端 2 (媒体推荐的被动方)发送媒 体推荐, 并将推荐的媒体流 1的时间参数发送给媒体功能模块 2。
IPTV业务控制模块接收到终端 1的媒体推荐业务请求后, 通知媒体功 能模块 2建立与终端 2的媒体连接, 并将推荐的媒体流 1 的时间参数发送 给媒体功能模块 2。
步骤 403 ,媒体功能模块 2根据媒体流 1的时间参数, 直接调整在终端 2上播放的媒体流 2的播放状态,使媒体流 2开始播放的状态与媒体流 1当 前的播放状态同步。
以上所述, 仅为本发明的较佳实施例而已, 并非用于限定本发明的保 护范围。
