Method and system for supporting user to play television program and record program simultaneously

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a digital television system. The digital television system supports the interaction of a digital television and a set top box; a television signal output server of the digital television system is in charge of the output of an original television code stream; a program customized application server of the digital television system manages program channel information; an application server of the digital television system transmits the compressed code stream to the set top box through a video server; and an external storage of the set top box records the program by processing the compressed video code stream. The embodiment of the invention also discloses a method for supporting user to play a television program and record the program simultaneously. Due to the embodiment of the invention, by transmitting the code stream to the external storage of the set top box for storage by using a DSL transmission network, the functions of recording and playing back the program are realized.
