Video monitoring method based on IPTV and system thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a video monitoring method based on an IPTV. The method comprises the following steps: a monitoring EPG unit receives a command for selecting a monitoring front end sent by a set top box, and returns a streaming media address corresponding to the monitoring front end to the set top box; a media gateway unit receives and forwards a monitoring video request of the set top box to a network video monitoring platform; the network video monitoring platform performs streaming media scheduling and sends monitoring video stream data on the monitoring front end to the media gateway unit; and the media gateway unit performs adaption and conversion on the monitoring video stream data, and sends the converted IPTV video stream data to the set top box. The invention further relates to a video monitoring system based on the IPTV. In the invention, the IPTV system is combined with the remote network video monitoring system by an additional network element, and an IPTV television terminal is used for performing remote network video monitoring, thus realizing convenient operation and clear display, and solving the problems of business interaction and business sharing among heterogeneous networks.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of Internet communication and interactive network television (Internet Protocol Television, referred to as IPTV), in particular to an IPTV-based video monitoring method and system. Background technique [0002] Network video surveillance service is a business service that provides users with remote collection, transmission, storage, and processing of video images based on broadband networks.

Problems solved by technology

There are certain problems in these two network video monitoring methods: the first method requires a PC and the installation of corresponding software programs, which is more complicated in use and operation, and often requires a better understanding of computer technology; the second method requires a relatively High-end mobile phones, and the monitoring screen of the mobile phone is usually relatively small, it is difficult to watch the monitoring screen clearly and conveniently

The above two methods cannot meet the needs of some specific users, that is, users want to be able to switch through simple operations, and then display the surveillance video images they want to watch, monitor or browse on the large TV screen
