Embodiment Construction

[0028] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention, not to limit the present invention.

[0029] In the present invention, the mobile terminal with a touch screen is used as the mouse and keyboard input device of the set-top box, and the unified plug and play (Universal Plug and Play, UPNP) protocol is used as the interconnection protocol. The user moves the position on the touch screen of the mobile terminal, and the touch screen captures the position. Move the operation, and send the position information to the set-top box, and the set-top box controls the cursor to move and display the corresponding position in response to the user's operation.

Abstract

The invention is suitable for the field of digital televisions, and in particular relates to a method and system for controlling a set top box by using a mobile terminal. The method comprises the following steps of: capturing a position moving operation of a user on a touch screen of the mobile terminal by the mobile terminal; generating position information by the mobile terminal according to the position moving operation, and sending the position information to the set top box; receiving the position information by the set top box; calculating the sliding direction and the sliding length by the set top box according to the position information; and controlling a cursor to make corresponding motion by the set top box, and displaying. In the invention, a UPNP (Universal Plug-n-Play) protocol is used as an interconnection protocol, a user carries out the position moving operation on the touch screen of the mobile terminal, the touch screen captures the position moving operation, the mobile terminal sends the position information to the set top box, and the set top box controls the cursor to move by corresponding position and displays the corresponding position so as to respond to the user operation. Therefore, the problem of higher cost caused by a special hardware device or element configured as required in the traditional control manner is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of digital television, and in particular relates to a method and system for operating a set-top box with a mobile terminal. Background technique [0002] Existing set-top boxes generally use a remote controller as an input device to control the set-top box. With more and more digital TV services, it is more and more complicated and inconvenient to use the existing set-top box remote controller to control. [0003] At present, by adding a scroll wheel to the remote control or directly through the gravity sensing device inside the remote control, the position information can be transmitted to the set-top box, or a matching wireless mouse can be ordered for the set-top box. The way of using an external wireless mouse not only needs to configure special external devices, which increases the cost, but also cannot reflect the exit / return button on the mouse, and it is not beautiful to place the mouse device in the living r...
