Description

Remote control client code matching method and device

Technical field

The present invention relates to the field of media players, and in particular, to a method, a device, and a mobile terminal for matching a remote controller client code.

Background technique

With the rapid development of multimedia technology, various media player products have appeared on the market, such as DVD players, Blu-ray players and the like. A large number of media player products can be controlled using a remote control. In the process of controlling the media player using the remote control, the remote controller first needs to send the client code. After receiving the client code sent by the remote controller, the player determines whether to accept the control signal sent by the remote controller by determining whether the received client code is valid.

Most of the remote controls used to control the player provide control buttons for play, pause, previous track, next track, and more. That is to say, the control functions provided by the remote controller for controlling different players are similar. As a result, remote controls that can remotely control a variety of players have appeared on the market, and are known as universal remote controls. The first problem to be faced when using a universal remote to remotely control different players is that different players require different client codes, so first the client code needs to be matched with the player.

The current universal remote control and the different players perform the customer code matching process manually. The customer code selection switch is set on the universal remote controller, and has multiple customer code selection gear positions, which respectively correspond to different customer codes. When the user needs to use a universal remote control to control a player, the user code selection switch needs to be toggled to the correct gear position before the player can be remotely controlled. Obviously, this way of matching customer codes is not convenient.

Summary of the invention

The object of the present invention is to provide a remote control client code matching method and device, so that the remote controller It is able to quickly and conveniently match customer codes to different players.

To this end, the present invention employs the following technical solutions:

A method for matching a remote client code, the method comprising:

When receiving the client code check signal, if the received client code is different from the existing client code, the client code buffer timer and the client code update timer are started;

When the client code buffer timer expires, if the client code check signal is still received, the received client code is buffered;

When the customer code update timer expires, if the client code check signal is still received, the existing client code is updated to the received client code, and the updated client code is displayed on the display screen.

Further, the client code is a signal code sequence for identifying whether the remote controller is valid.

Further, the client code verification signal is a signal that is required to check whether the received client code matches the existing client code, and the remote controller sends the player requesting the client to check the client code.

Further, the time duration of the client code update timer is greater than the time duration of the client code buffer timer.

Correspondingly, the present invention also discloses a matching device for a remote controller client code, the device comprising: a timer starting module, configured to receive a client code check signal, and the received client code is different from the existing client code , starting a client code buffer timer and a client code update timer;

a client code cache module, configured to: when the client code buffer timer expires, and still receive the client code check signal, buffer the received client code;

a client code update module, configured to: when the client code update timer expires, and still receive the client code check signal, update the existing client code to the received client code, and display the updated on the display screen Customer code.

Further, the client code is a signal code sequence for identifying whether the remote controller is valid. Further, the client code verification signal is a signal that is required to check whether the received client code matches the existing client code, and the remote controller sends the player requesting the client to check the client code.

The invention caches the client code sent by the remote controller when the client code sent by the remote controller is different from the client code pre-stored by the player, and replaces the client code pre-stored by the player with the remote controller when the client code update timer expires. The way of the customer code allows the user to change the pre-stored client code on the player by long pressing the client code check button on the remote control, realizing the remote control of multiple media players using one remote controller.

Referring to FIG. 1, the system for implementing a matching method of a remote controller client code includes a player 101 and a remote controller 102. The player 101 may be a media player such as a DVD player or a Blu-ray player, which is an object controlled by the remote controller 102. The remote controller 102 controls the player to play, pause, fast forward, rewind, the last song and the next song to the media. The remote controller 102 remotely controls the player 101 by an infrared signal or a radio signal. The remote controller 102 is provided with a keyboard The client code check button, the user can send a client code check signal to the player 101 by long pressing the client code check button, and the client code check between the player 101 and the remote controller 102 is implemented. When the preset client code in the player 101 is different from the client code sent by the remote controller 102, the preset client code in the player 101 is updated.

In step S201, when the client code check signal is received, if the received client code is different from the existing client code, the client code buffer timer and the client code update timer are started.

When the user needs to check the client code between the player 101 and the remote controller 102, it is necessary to long press the client code check button on the keyboard of the remote controller 102. When the client code check button is pressed, the remote controller 102 transmits the client code check signal to the player 101.

After receiving the client code check signal sent by the remote controller 102, the player 101 checks whether the received client code is the same as the preset client code in the player 101. If the received client code is different from the preset client code in the player 101, the client code buffer timer and the client code update timer are started.

The client code buffer timer is used to time the time at which the client code transmitted by the remote controller 102 is buffered. The client code update timer is used to time the time when the client code preset in the player 101 is updated. Moreover, the time duration of the client code update timer is greater than the time duration of the client code buffer timer.

In step S202, when the client code buffer timer expires, if the client code check signal is still received, the received client code is buffered.

The client code buffer timer is used to time the time at which the client code transmitted by the remote controller 102 is buffered. When the client code buffer timer expires, if the player 101 still receives the client code check signal, the player 101 stores the client code sent by the remote controller 102 to the guest. In the user code buffer area; when the client code buffer timer expires, if the player 101 cannot continue to receive the client code check signal, the player 101 clears the client code buffer.

The client code buffer is a storage area for storing a client code received by the player 101. The client code buffer is a random access memory, a static random access memory or a double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory.

According to a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the time duration of the client code buffer timer is

2 seconds.

In step S203, when the customer code update timer expires, if the client code check signal is still received, the existing client code is updated to the received client code, and the updated client code is displayed on the display screen. .

The client code update timer is used to time the time at which the client code preset in the player 101 is updated. When the client code update timer expires, if the client code check signal is still received, the existing client code is updated to the received client code, and the updated client code is displayed on the display screen.

According to a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the time duration of the client code update timer is 2.5 seconds.

According to a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, the client code preset in the player 101 is stored in the client code storage area. The client code storage area is a random access memory, a static random access memory or a double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory. And the client code storage area is used to store a preset client code in the player 101.

The process of updating an existing client code to a received client code replaces the client code preset in the player 101 with a client code stored in the client code buffer. According to a preferred embodiment of the embodiment, when the existing client code is updated to the received client code, the player reads the client The client code stored in the code buffer is then written into the client code storage area by the value of the client code stored in the client code buffer. This completes the update of the client code preset in the player 101.

After the update of the preset client code in the player 101 is completed, the player clears the client code buffer area, and displays the preset client code in the player 101 after updating on the display screen. The user is made aware that the preset client code in the player 101 has been updated, and the value of the updated client code.

After updating the existing client code to the received client code, the updated client code identifies whether the received client code is valid.

In this embodiment, two timers with different timings are started when receiving the client code sent by the remote controller, and the client code sent by the remote controller is buffered when the first timer expires, and the second timer expires. The preset customer code in the player is updated, thereby realizing the user's real-time change of the preset customer code in the player, so that one remote controller can be used to remotely control multiple players.
