Abstract

The invention discloses a method for accomplishing media content positioning based on EPG server comprising following steps: step 1, EPG server acquires information related to service agency in CDN node providing service to EPG server from total control module; step 2, EPG server acquires multi-cast address of channel from CDN network and stores every channel in multi-cast address in every CDN node; step 3, EPG server performs local media content positioning according to information related to service agency, multi-cast address of every channel in every CDN node. The EPG server acquires necessary data for local positioning from total control module, then performs local media content positioning, reduces pressure of positioning through service agency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of interactive network television, in particular to a method and device for realizing media content positioning based on an EPG (Electronic Program Guiding, electronic program guide) server. Background technique [0002] With the progress of society and the continuous improvement of users' pursuit of high-quality life, the development of digital home has attracted more and more people's attention. The IPTV (Internet Protocol Television, Interactive Network Television) based on the broadband network provides users with rich and colorful audio and video services and various value-added application services, thereby promoting the development of the digital home. The EPG (Electronic Program Guiding, Electronic Program Guiding) server serves as a navigation portal system for IPTV users to enjoy services, and provides a large amount of media content such as live channels, on-demand programs, and the like. How the EPG serve...
