Problems solved by technology

But there are following defects in this program playing method: 1, can only be used in the two-way set-top box, promptly require the set-top box must have the ability of data upload and download data from the network server, and then can't use for the one-way set-top box; 2, this method The switching channel is selected according to the current program rating list. It is a pseudo-random operation. In actual channel switching, the user still needs to switch one channel according to the program rating list

specific Embodiment

[0022] A method for constructing a set-top box at random based on user preferences, comprising the following steps:

[0023] Step 1. Initially set the user's preference index for each channel to be equal, and set a unit time T. In this embodiment, 10 minutes is used as a unit time;

[0024] Step 2, every time the user watches a channel, for example, the user watches channel 16, and when the viewing time reaches 10 minutes, the channel number 16 of this channel is counted once, and the channel number 16 is counted once every 10 minutes after continuing to watch;

[0025] Step 3. Read the viewing statistics of each channel watched, and build a random set of alternative channels. For example, channel 16 has been watched for 5 units of time, channel 20 has been watched for 4 units of time, and channel 34 has been watched for 2 units of time. 3 has been watched for 1 unit time, then the generated channel set is {16,16,16,16,16,20,20,20,20,34,34,3}. In this channel set, since 16 ap...

Abstract

The invention provides a set-top box random switching construction method based on user preferences. The method comprises the following steps: 1, initially setting equal preference indexes of a user specific to each channel, and setting unit time T; 2, counting the number of channels watched by the user according to the set unit time T; 3, reading the watching statistical data of the each watched channel, and constructing a random standby channel set; 4, generating a random number from the constructed frequency set, wherein a channel number corresponding to the random number indicates a randomly-switched channel. Through adoption of the method, channels can be generated randomly according to the watching habits and preferences of a user, and favorite channels of the user can be selected easily at a high hit rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for constructing a set-top box randomly cutting channels based on user preferences. Background technique [0002] In the traditional set-top box, the user can only switch one station when browsing the program, there is no random switching function, but in other players, the generation of random numbers is evenly distributed, so the randomly selected programs, for The user preference hit rate is relatively low. [0003] After searching, the Chinese invention patent with application publication date: 2014.3.26 and application publication number: CN 103686384 A discloses a program playing method and a control terminal. The method includes: when a random switching instruction is received, obtaining the Program viewing ranking list; according to the ranking order of all program identifications in the program viewing ranking list at the current moment, obtain the program identification to be played; control the digital TV t...
