Description

A kind of method and apparatus of TV time lock
Technical field
The present invention relates to the technology of timely locking, especially a kind of method and apparatus of TV time lock.
Background technology
The development of TV tech and universal, it has become the modal household electrical appliance of each family.Along with the variation of function, the program that TV not only can watch TV station and player to carry can also have function of surfing the Net, game function, have some utility functions of computer concurrently.TV has become people and has understood the window that the world changes, an important platform of amusement and recreation.Various television program transmissions bring that everybody is a lot of happyly also to let people understand world's change and progress in good time.The people at what age likes going up the home entertaining instrument that this simply is suitable for.Yet abundant TV resource and TV functions variation also bring some difficult problems to the head of a family when bringing joy to everybody: how effectively managing children is to the use of TV.
For the effective management that realizes TV is used; Usually adopt following controlling schemes: the condition through DTV receives (CA) system to the virgin lock of DTV value, age lock; Password is set limits the specific crowd that watches, or the number of programs that restriction is watched reaches the control purpose.Said system is based on specific receiving system, to the signalling channel that is, can not realize control to television set itself.And said method is the control of the kind of signal, can not adapt to the requirement of a plurality of users to different brackets motor program.
For solving the problems of the technologies described above, there is the inventor to propose more valuable scheme.(Granted publication number: CN100579202C), said patent application discloses a kind of solution that the TV time is controlled, and is as shown in Figure 2 for the time lock controlling equipment of DTV for example by name and the application for a patent for invention of method.Said method realizes the locking to TV through the judgement to available machine time and playing duration, has realized the control to reproduction time, has improved the scope of application and flexibility.But said control method was controlled to the available machine time, can not the good current time of better controlled, as long as start just can realize the evading of encipheror before official hour, and then can watch program freely.Therefore, prior art has further improved needs.
Summary of the invention
The present invention provides a kind of method and apparatus of TV time lock, can realize the service time of television set has better been controlled in current broadcast control constantly, has improved locking accuracy and promptness.
In order to solve above technical problem, the technical scheme that the present invention taked is:
A kind of method of TV time lock may further comprise the steps,
The first step is obtained the current time, and judging whether needs to pin signal, pins signal if desired and gets into for second step, does not get into for the 3rd step if need not pin signal;
Second step required the input password, judged whether password is correct, got into for the 4th step if password is correct, otherwise was back to the first step;
The 3rd step broadcast program, record time of having play simultaneously, every segment call first step at regular intervals;
The 4th step broadcast program.
Said method has increased the loop control function under the situation that does not need locking television, realized the real-time control to playing process.When televising, the circulation step whether certain interval of time check current time need encrypt is being carried out on the backstage always, encrypt then locking television if desired and eject password window, otherwise certain interval of time is proceeded check.As long as inputed correct password, this circulation step then no longer carries out.What system was directed against is that current time is tested, more feasible with respect to controlling constantly according to starting shooting of prior art; In a single day and inputed password, show that then the beholder can watch program in the time period of this restriction.System is the recursive call first step no longer, has reduced taking of resource.
Be preferable over, carry out following step before the current time obtaining: judge whether coded lock is opened, also normally go on if open then obtain the current time, otherwise play-over program.Whether in order to make control more can add hommization, preferred opening with coded lock is made as adjustable, need can determine according to actual needs to encrypt.
Be preferable over, system time directly obtains from programme signal, and should the time user can behind key feeding cipher, adjust.System time can have two sources, and the one, the timer that carries through system, the one, the back is grasped from TV signal through starting shooting.What this preferred scheme adopted is first kind; Because the TV solution of television set itself mainly is to Video processing; Plug-in timer need change the hardware configuration of television set; Even the increase chip, can increase implementation cost of the present invention, and the mode that directly grasps can realize based on existing hardware.Especially, the time of signal of TV program passage is difficult to guarantee correctness, should increase the function that the user can calibrate, and certainly, uses this function should input password.
Be preferable over, the time period that said step 3 is called is one hour.Need to understand, the time period that said step 3 is called can be set to greater than 0 second, less than the random time within 24 hours.But in order to realize Real Time Control Function, the every certain interval of time of system will call the first step.Do not have the effect of working control if the time interval is oversize; If too short, cyclic program can take a large amount of resources.So we select one hour as the time interval of calling.Certainly preferably, this time period is that the user can be provided with.When using TV, whether background system all belongs to the password locking scope in the real-time judge current time, if the current time reaches locking time; Then start-up time lock function; Picture is changed to preset background frame, and sound is all quiet, need re-enter password and could normally use.If use television set with the pin mode release in locking time, so need be in shutdown next time, cryptographic function starts once more, the operation of the circulation first step.
Be preferable over, whether said time period, the start moment, the shutdown moment and coded lock need pin all and can in TV menu, be provided with.When change is provided with, need key feeding cipher to be in common state, we repeat no more.Here we can the password that change is provided be made as with play the password that connects program be made as identical so that memory.Especially, pass into silence or entanglement is set, the universal unlocking password can be set in order to prevent password.
Be preferable over, in step 2, before definite password was correct, any signalling channel all showed Background Picture and the cryptographic session frame, and volume is a mute state, has gone out to carry out outside password input and the power-off operation, and television set does not respond other operations.In fact, this preferred version is that in fact, this state is self-explantory for the state of television set in emphasical second step.
A kind of equipment of having used the TV time lock of preceding method; Comprise: be used to obtain the available machine time time acquisition unit, be used to judge whether to pin password judging unit, be used to judge the whether correct password unit of password, be used for the timing unit of recording played time, the performance element of executive control operation.In the present invention, the time obtaining method to time acquisition unit has no particular limits.In simulated television, the timer outside independence and the system can be set.In digital television system, said time acquisition unit can obtain the time through digital signal.
Be preferable over: the said performance element television set amusement function that is coupled simultaneously.Because the present invention has realized the control to television system, not merely is the programme signal passage, so realize simultaneously can realizing to those skilled in the art the restriction of other amusement functions of television set.
Beneficial effect of the present invention is:
The method of TV time lock according to the invention is to the real-time control of the TV that is in broadcast state, and is more effective to the control of available machine time with respect to prior art; When coded lock function on TV is in the lock state; Current time is at password after start-up time and (promptly being to accomplish within the circulation in 24 hours) before the opening time next time; After the user accomplished a password input, system can not continue to call controlled function, because continuing under the broadcast state; Having inputed a password explanation beholder is the user who is allowed to; Monitoring time control seems and there is no need again, and said method can reduce taking of resource, also hommization more of control; With respect to CA system (condition receiving system), what the equipment of TV time lock according to the invention was realized is the control to television set itself, needn't rely on specificly for STB and signalling channel, and can realize the restriction to other amusement functions of television set simultaneously.
Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the flow chart of the said control method of background technology;
Fig. 2 is the flow chart of method one preferred embodiment of the said TV time lock of invention.
Embodiment
Do further detailed description below in conjunction with the accompanying drawing specific embodiments of the invention:
In conjunction with Fig. 1 the disclosed a kind of solution to the control of TV time of Granted publication number: CN100579202C is done and to be analyzed.The reproduction time of restriction of assumption is 8:00 to 12:00, and the longest continuous reproduction time of permission is 4 hours.Realize start if the user divides at 07:59, just can watch to 11:59 continuously.And in the application's case (combination Fig. 2), the reproduction time of same restriction of assumption is 8:00 to 12:00, and then within 8:00 and 12:00, encipheror starts voluntarily.System can the cycle criterion current time whether within the time that is limited to play, if, then require the input password.And after the user inputed password, above-mentioned cyclic program just stopped.Certainly, the prerequisite of cyclic program termination is the lasting start of television set.
Here, our have a talk again relevant issues that the present invention design relates to-judge whether the current time belongs to the preset time period.(the whole system time was the unit circulation with 24 hours) supposes that the time period that is limited to play that we set is 23:00-02:00; We can not only understand the lower limit 23:00 less than this time period owing to 01:00 through numeral so, and assert that 01:00 was not included in this time period.Because the time is loop cycle, we will consider the relation between this time period bound simultaneously when judging whether the current time belongs to the time that is limited to play.At this, we provide comparatively easy method, are not limited only to this method but need to understand the present invention.
1. when the time started is less than the concluding time: as the current time less than the time started, do not need locking signal; Current time greater than the time started less than the concluding time, locking signal; Current time does not need locking signal greater than the concluding time.2. when the concluding time is less than the time started: as the current time less than the time started again greater than the concluding time, do not need locking signal; Current time greater than the time started less than the concluding time, locking signal; Current time does not need locking signal greater than the concluding time and less than the time started.
What be suitable for above is the judgement to the single time period, and we also can be provided with the plural time period as the time period that is limited to play sometimes.At this moment we can judge one by one whether each time period comprised the current time, have a confined time period to include the current time, and we just think needs the input password.All confined time periods all do not comprise the current time, and we think that just this time can play.
If our input is the time that is allowed to play rather than the time of restriction, likewise, have only the time period of all permissions all not comprise the current time, we assert that just the current time can play.
Next, we introduce the method for obtaining the current time.We can embed a clock-button cell in television set, this battery can write down the current time, do not receive the influence of AC outage.Especially, this time can artificially calibrate, and should require input that password is set before the standard.In DTV, directly acquisition time data from STB are not further launched here.
At last, according to Fig. 2 a non-limiting examples is provided: we suppose that confined viewing time is 8:00 to 12:00 and 18:00 to 22:00, and the preset time interval is one hour.
S201: obtain the current time, judge the current time whether in the scope of 8:00 to 12:00 and 18:00 to 22:00, if, get into S202, otherwise get into S203;
S202: require the input password, judge whether password is correct,, otherwise be back to S201 if password correctly gets into S204;
S203: the beginning broadcast program, the time that record has been play, call S201 after half an hour at interval;
S204: beginning broadcast program.
The above is merely embodiment of the present invention.But protection range of the present invention is not limited thereto.Any technical staff who is familiar with the present technique field is in the technical scope that invention discloses, and the variation that can expect easily or replacement all should be encompassed within protection scope of the present invention, and therefore, protection scope of the present invention should be as the criterion with the protection range of claim.
