Set-top box program skipping and sorting method and system

Abstract

The invention provides a set-top box program skipping and sorting method. The method comprises the following steps: setting that initial values of a preference index and a skipping index of a user to each program are the same when a set-top box leaves the factory; the set-top box counting the program watching conditions of the user at intervals of a certain unit time when the user watches the programs; the set-top box judging whether the corresponding program needs to skip according to the counted skipping index of each program; if the skipping index of one program exceeds a skipping threshold value, the set-top box automatically skipping the program when the user up or down switches the channels; the set-top box sorting the whole program list according to a counted accumulation value of the preference index of each program so as to automatically switch according to the sorted program list order when the user up or down switches the channels. The method disclosed by the invention has the advantages that the corresponding program skipping and whole program list sorting can be automatically performed according to the preference degrees of the user to the programs by counting the program watching conditions of the user through the set-top box, and the set-top box is more convenient and intelligent.

Description

Problems solved by technology

[0005] One of the technical problems to be solved by the present invention is to provide a method for program skipping and sorting in a set-top box. The set-top box collects and counts users' viewing habits of each program, and then according to the skip index value and preference index value corresponding to each program, Automatically skip corresponding programs and sort the entire program list, which solves the problem that the existing set-top box program skipping and program sorting require manual editing by the user, and the operation is cumbersome.
