Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, when the set-top box server sends broadcast information to the set-top box, it usually sends it through the mail system of the set-top box. However, the current mail system only supports the sending and display of plain text, which makes the display method of broadcast information single and poor in expressiveness.
Although it is also possible to use the Digital Storage Media Command and Control Extension Protocol (Digital Storage Media Command and Control, DSM-CC) data broadcasting system of Digital Video Broadcasting (Digital Video Broadcasting, DVB) to realize the distribution of image files to the set-top box end, but using The DSM-CC method requires the set-top box server to configure and support the DSM-CC data broadcasting system protocol. These configurations often bring cost input, such as purchasing from third-party suppliers

Embodiment 1

[0043] figure 1 It is a flow chart of a set-top box broadcasting method in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, which is applied to a set-top box. This embodiment is applicable to the situation of sending broadcast information to users through a set-top box. The method can be executed by a set-top box broadcasting device, which can be implemented in software and / or hardware, for example, the set-top box broadcasting device can be configured in a set-top box. like figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0044] S110. Receive an email containing a file to be broadcast.

[0045] In this embodiment, the file to be broadcast is a file that is sent from the set-top box server end (set-top box operator front-end) to the set-top box end, and displayed to the user through the set-top box. Optionally, the files to be broadcast may be government notices, natural disaster messages, user account messages, and the like. For example, the server side of the set-top box sends the news ...

Embodiment 2

[0060] figure 2 It is a flow chart of the set-top box broadcasting method in Embodiment 2 of the present invention, and this embodiment is further optimized on the basis of the foregoing embodiments. like figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0061] S210. Receive an email containing a file to be broadcast.

[0062] S220. Analyze the email, and judge the type of the file to be broadcast according to the analyzed email information.

[0063] S230. When the category of the to-be-broadcast file is an image, decode the to-be-broadcast file according to a preset image decoding method, and acquire the to-be-broadcast image and attribute information of the to-be-broadcast image.

[0064] Optionally, an image decoding method corresponding to the encoding method at the server side of the set-top box may be preset. When the type of the file to be broadcast is an image, the file to be broadcasted is decoded according to a preset image decoding method, and the image to be broadcas...

Embodiment 3

[0071] Figure 3a It is a flow chart of the set-top box broadcasting method in the third embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a preferred example based on the foregoing embodiments. like Figure 3a As shown, the method includes:

[0072] S310. Parse the email content.

[0073] S320. Determine whether it is an image broadcast email.

[0074] In this embodiment, it is determined whether the received mail is an image broadcast mail according to the content of the mail. If yes, execute S330; if not, execute S350.

[0075] S330. Decode the image.

[0076] S340. Output the image to a display.

[0077] S350. Output the text to the display.

[0078] Specifically, when the set-top box terminal receives the mail sent by the set-top box server, it first analyzes the text of the mail to analyze whether it is a normal mail or an image broadcast mail. If it is a normal mail, it will be processed according to the normal mail process, and the text will be out...

Abstract

Embodiments of the invention disclose a broadcasting method and a broadcasting device of a set top box, a set top box, a server and a medium. The broadcasting method comprises the steps of: receivingan email containing a file to be broadcasted; analyzing the email and judging the category of the file to be broadcasted according to analyzed email information; and decoding the file to be broadcasted by using a decoding mode corresponding to the category of the file to be broadcasted, so as to broadcast the file to be broadcasted. According to the broadcasting method of the set top box in the embodiment of the invention, broadcasting for various categories of broadcasting files can be achieved only through an email system without increasing hardware cost, therefore, broadcasting informationcan be presented in various forms at a low cost, high content expressiveness of the broadcasting information is realized, at the same time, a broadcasting function of a system is improved, and more content presentation options are provided.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of information technology, and in particular, relate to a set-top box broadcasting method and device, a set-top box, a server, and a medium. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of broadband technology, set-top boxes have been widely used in various places such as homes and hotels. The set-top boxes launched in recent years are all equipped with network communication functions. It can receive broadcast information issued by operators (such as government notices, natural disaster messages, user account messages, etc.), and display the received broadcast information for users to watch. [0003] At present, when the set-top box server sends broadcast information to the set-top box, it usually sends it through the mail system of the set-top box. However, the current mail system only supports the sending and display of plain text, which makes the display method of broadcast informatio...
