Description
Technical Field
The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of electronics, in particular to a method and a device for moving a focus in a program item display interface and terminal equipment.
Background
In an EPG (electronic program guide) function of a television, program entries are generally dynamically generated according to program time and content information. Because the starting time and the ending time of different programs of different channels are random, the corresponding position and the length of each program item are also randomly tiled in the whole time region, and generally, when the time is distributed transversely, the channels are distributed longitudinally; or the channels are distributed horizontally when the time is distributed vertically. Taking the time horizontal distribution and the channel vertical distribution as an example, each channel occupies one row in the display interface. For the display of static content, the moving destination of each icon up, down, left, and right can be statically specified. However, the programs of the EPG are dynamically generated and cannot be statically specified, so dynamic calculation needs to be performed according to coordinates, and particularly, due to randomness of the length of the program time in each channel, arrangement of program items is irregular, and generally, the program playing time and the program playing time length corresponding to the program items located in different channels are different, so that program items in upper and lower rows are displayed in a staggered manner. Similarly, when the channels are distributed longitudinally, program entries in upper and lower columns are displayed in a staggered manner.
The current algorithm is to calculate the next focus position from the coordinate position of the current focus every time the focus is moved between channels. In the process of moving the focus, because of the problem of misplacement display of program items, after each movement, there may be an offset, and after multiple offsets, the focus may be far from the most initial focus position, and in an extreme case, the focus may eventually move to the page boundary. At this time, reverse operation is performed, so that the situation that the focus cannot be traced back occurs, and user experience is affected.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Currently, in an EPG (electronic program guide) function of a television, program entries are generally dynamically generated according to program time and content information. Because the start and end times of different programs of different channels are random, the position and length of the program entry corresponding to each program entry are randomly tiled (horizontally or column-wise tiling, wherein fig. 1 shows a horizontal tiling manner) in the whole time region, wherein each channel occupies one row in the display interface (corresponding to fig. 1, the channels are column-wise tiled when the time is horizontally tiled, i.e., the program entry corresponding to each channel occupies one row, or the channels are horizontally tiled when the time is vertically tiled, and the program entries of each channel occupy one column). Taking the time as horizontal tiling and the channel as column-wise tiling as an example, as shown in fig. 1, a display interface of program entries generally includes a two-dimensional program menu arranged in the order of channels and program playing time, where the program entry of each channel at least includes one program entry arranged according to time, where a start position of the program entry is used to indicate the program playing time, and an end position of the program entry is used to indicate the program ending time.
As shown in fig. 1, the display interface shows five channels (DC a-DC e), where each channel corresponds to one line (cable), and in the display interface, the program entries of each channel are displayed in a row, for example: program entries a0-a3 for DC a, program entries b0-b5 for DC b, program entries c0-c6 for DC c, program entries d0-d8 for DC d, program entries e0-e7 for DC e, wherein the program entries for each channel are arranged in chronological order, as shown in figure 1 for program entries between 3:00PM and 5:00PM, when the focus is at the position of a certain program entry, a Guide (Guide) of the program entry is shown on the display interface at the same time, which may include, for example, a channel identification for the program, and a broadcast time and profile, as shown, with focus on program entry a2, the channel identification of DCa is displayed on the upper left side of the display interface, the broadcast time of program item a2 is 29/34: 19PM-29/35:19PM is displayed on the upper side of the program item, and the content brief of program item a2 is displayed.
Since the random arrangement of the program entries is caused by the randomness of the program time duration in each channel, the program playing time and the program time duration corresponding to the program entries located in different channels are usually different, and thus, the program entries in the upper and lower channels are misaligned, as shown in fig. 1, for example, the end positions of a0 are not aligned with the end positions of b0 and c0, and further, the start positions of a1, b1 and c1 are also misaligned. Therefore, in moving the focus up and down, because of the problem of misplacement display of program items, there may be an offset after each movement, and after a plurality of offsets, the focus will be far from the initial focus position, and in extreme cases, the focus will eventually move to the page boundary.
Taking fig. 1 as an example, when the focus moves downward from a3 in the prior art, the focus is usually moved to b3 based on the program playing time on the left side of the program entry a 3; moving the focus to c3 with the program playing time on the left side of the program entry b3 as the reference when the focus moves downward from b 3; moving the focus to d3 based on the program playing time on the left side of the program entry c3 when the focus moves downward from c 3; when the focus moves downwards from d3, the focus is moved to e3 based on the program playing time on the left side of the program entry d 3; the path for moving the focus downward is a3-b3-c3-d3-e 3; at this time, if the focus moves upward from e3, the focus is moved to d1 based on the program playing time on the left side of the program entry e 3; the same reasoning again moves the focus upwards to c1, b0, a 0. Thus, the path for moving the focus upward is e3-d3-c1-b0-a0, and the position of the final focus cannot return to a 3. Therefore, the situation that the focus cannot be traced back can be seen when the reverse operation is carried out, and the user experience is influenced.
To solve the above problem, referring to fig. 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for moving a focus in a program entry display interface, including the following steps:
101. a focus movement instruction is received.
102. And when the focus is determined to be moved from the first program item of the current channel to another channel according to the focus moving instruction, calculating a new focus position according to the position of the program item of the predetermined reference coordinate.
Wherein the focal position may be identified by the channel number where the focal point is located and the index value of the program entry where the focal point is located in an embodiment of the present invention. Illustratively, a global variable channel Index (channel identifier) is recorded to store the channel number of the current focus (for example, the channels are tiled in the column direction, and the channel number may be the row number of the channel, or the channels are tiled in the horizontal direction, and the channel number may be the column number of the channel); recording a global variable program Index (program identifier) for storing a program Index value of a current focus; a global variable lastFocusProgram is recorded to hold the position as a reference coordinate program entry, which may include the channel number and program index value of the reference coordinate program entry.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 1, when the focus moves up and down, the focus moving instruction indicates the focus moving instruction to determine to move the focus from the current channel to another channel; thus, the new focus position can be determined in two ways: in a first mode, when it is determined that the program end time of the second program entry of another channel is located between the program playing time and the program end time of the program entry of the reference coordinate, the index value of the second program entry is calculated, and the new focus position is generated, where the new focus position includes the channel number of the another channel and the index value of the second program entry. In a second mode, when the program playing time of the program entry with the reference coordinate is determined to be between the program playing time and the program ending time of the second program entry of the other channel, the index value of the second program entry is calculated, and the new focus position is generated, wherein the new focus position comprises the channel number of the other channel and the index value of the second program entry.
Specifically, the logic of the program code to calculate the new focus position is described as follows:
if all programs of another channel (target channel) are traversed, the programs can be traversed according to the time sequence
If the program end time of a certain program entry is in the time period between the program playing time and the program end time of the reference coordinate program entry, returning the index value of the program; or, if the program playing time of the reference coordinate program entry falls within the time period between the program playing time and the program ending time of a certain program, returning the index value of the program
The channel number channel Index may be automatically +1 or-1 depending on whether the moving direction is up or down, resulting in a channel number and an Index value, which may be set as a new focus position. The location lastFocusProgram of the reference coordinate program entry is not updated because the focus is moved up and down.
103. And moving the focus to a second program entry of another channel according to the new focus position, wherein the second program entry corresponds to the new focus position.
Illustratively, taking the example of moving the focus position at 3:50PM as follows, in the above manner, a1 is predetermined as a reference coordinate program entry, and since the program end time of b1 is located in the time period between the program broadcast time and the program end time of a1, when moving the focus from a1 down to another channel, the focus is moved to b1 according to the calculated focus position; since the program end time of c1 is in the time period between the program play time of a1 and the program end time, moving the focus from b1 down to another channel moves the focus to c1 according to the calculated focus position; since the program end time of d1, d2 is in the time period between the program play time of a1 and the program end time, and traversal is first facilitated to d1, moving the focus from c1 down to another channel moves the focus to d1 according to the calculated focus position; since the program end time of e3 is within the time period between the program play time of a1 and the program end time, moving the focus from d1 down to another channel moves the focus to e3 according to the calculated focus position; the moving path of the focus is: a1-b1-c1-d1-e 3.
Similarly, when the focus is moved up to another channel, since the program end time of d1 is in the time period between the program playing time of a1 and the program end time, when the focus is moved up from e3 to another channel, the focus is moved to d1 according to the calculated focus position; since the program end time of c1 is in the time period between the program play time of a1 and the program end time, moving the focus upward from d1 to another channel moves the focus to c1 according to the calculated focus position; since the program end time of b1 is within the time period between the program play time of a1 and the program end time, moving the focus downward from c1 moves the focus to b1 according to the calculated focus position; moving up again, moving the focus from b1 to a1, so when moving up to another channel, the path is: e3-d1-c1-b1-a 1.
Therefore, on one hand, when the focus moves up and down, the program in which the focus falls and the program in which the focus is initially located have no offset in the left-right direction, and the focus position can be guaranteed to be converged in the expected range of the user; on the other hand, the path of the focus moving upwards is opposite to the path of the focus moving downwards, namely the moving path of the focus is traceable, so that the user experience is improved.
In the above scheme, when the focus moves along the channel arrangement direction, a new focus position can be determined according to the position of the reference coordinate program entry, so that the focus moves by referring to the position of the same reference coordinate program entry every time the focus is moved, and in the process of moving the focus, because the position of the reference program entry remains unchanged, when the focus moves from the previous channel or the next channel of the current channel to the current channel, the focus can be guaranteed to move to the same program entry, the problems that the focus moves to generate larger offset and the focus moves to be unable to trace back in the display interface of the program entry are solved, and the user experience is improved.
In addition, before receiving the focus moving instruction, the method also comprises the steps of firstly judging whether a reference coordinate program item exists, and if the reference coordinate program item does not exist, determining an initial program item in the current channel where the focus is located as the reference coordinate program item. It is to be noted that if the initial program entry where the focus is located is a0, the location lastfocusprogam of the reference coordinate program entry includes the channel number DC a and the index value a0 of the program, which is obviously described above only with a0 as the initial program entry, and other program entries may also be used as the initial program entry, for example, c2 located at the center of the display interface is used as the initial program entry, which is not limited in the present invention.
In addition, the embodiment of the invention also discloses an updating mode of the reference coordinate program entry. Illustratively, when the focus is located at an initial program entry in the current channel (at which time the initial program entry is determined to be the reference coordinate program entry), it is determined to move the focus from the initial program entry of the current channel to a third program entry of the current channel according to the focus movement instruction, the position of the reference coordinate program entry is updated to the position of the third program entry.
For example, the current reference coordinate program entry is the program entry a0, when it is determined that the focus is moved to the right to the program entry a2 of the same channel, the position of the program entry a2 is updated to the position of the reference coordinate program entry, and the channel number DC a to which the program entry a2 belongs and the index value a2 of the program are saved in the lastFocusProgram in the global variable.
Specifically, the logic of the code program for the update method of the reference coordinate program entry is described as follows:
when the focus position is moved to the right on the same channel, the position of the next program entry to which the focus is moved is located by changing the index value of the program entry
The code logic for locating the position of the focal point by the channel number and index value is as follows:
determining the position of the focus according to the channel number of the program entry and the index value of the program entry
// taking the next program entry to which the focus is moved based on the target index value
// setting a new focus position based on the position of the next program entry
Update index value of program entry where focus is located
If the focus is moved left and right, the position of the program item where the focus is located after the movement is saved as the position of the program item with the reference coordinate
As shown in fig. 3, a program implementation logic of a method for moving a focus in a program entry display interface is provided, taking time as horizontal tiling and channels as column-wise tiling as an example, when a focus movement occurs, the following is specifically described as follows:
s1, judging whether a reference coordinate program item exists or not; if yes, go to step S3, otherwise go to step S2.
And S2, calculating a reference coordinate program item according to the program item with the focus.
S3, judging the moving direction of the focus, if the moving direction is left and right, turning to step S4, if the moving direction is up and down, turning to step S6.
And S4, directly moving the focus to another program item according to the program item of the current focus.
And S5, saving the position of the program item with the moved focus as the position of the reference coordinate program item.
S6, calculating a new focus position based on the position of the reference coordinate program entry.
And S7, moving the focus to a second program item of another channel according to the new focus position, wherein the second program item corresponds to the new focus position.
The algorithm flow is specifically as follows:
begin- > S1- > S2- > S3- > S4- > S5- > end
Begin- > S1- > S3- > S4- > S5- > end
Begin- > S1- > S2- > S3- > S5- > S6- > end
Begin- > S1- > S3- > S5- > S6- > end
