Abstract

The invention discloses a set top box software updating method and system. The method comprises the steps of analyzing update software which is detected and selected by a user to obtain the type of the update software, judging whether the type of the update software is matched with the current software type to determine whether the user needs to change the service type, responding to an identifying code input by the user and judging whether the identifying code is matched with a preset identifying code to determine whether the user is authorized to change the service type when the type of the update software is not matched with the current software type, and updating the set top box by means of the update software when the identifying code input by the user is matched with the preset identifying code. Different set top box serial numbers correspond to different identifying codes. By the adoption of the technical scheme, the exclusive right of the user for the update software is guaranteed, and user experience is improved.
