Detailed Description
The following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples are given solely for the purpose of illustration and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
Example one
The invention provides a channel switching method. Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a channel switching method according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, a channel switching method includes the following steps:
step S10, after detecting that the commercial break starts, displaying a shortcut channel list of program viewing habit data corresponding to the current user.
In the embodiment of the present invention, before the step S10, the method includes: acquiring a user image, identifying a user according to a mapping relation between the user and the user image, and acquiring program watching habit data corresponding to the user, which is stored by a server, specifically: the method comprises the steps of collecting images of all members of a family in advance, collecting images of a user through an image collection module of the smart television, if a living body (particularly a person) in a certain range of the front end of the smart television is scanned through a camera or an external high-definition camera at the front end of the smart television, sending a scanning photographing instruction to the image collection module when a sensor detects that the living body exists in a preset range, starting and photographing the living body after the image collection module receives the instruction, storing the photographed image to a server, establishing a mapping relation between the image and the current living body, establishing a user account for each collected image, enabling the user images to correspond to the user one by one, and identifying the corresponding user through the image. If the image acquired by the image acquisition module is matched with the stored image library, and the current user is determined not to use the intelligent television for the first time, the intelligent television is directly logged in after being started, and a user account does not need to be established. If the matching is unsuccessful, namely that the current user uses the intelligent television for the first time is detected, a corresponding user account is established, and the user account, the image and the mapping relation of the image are stored in the server and the intelligent television.
Furthermore, after the intelligent television is started, the user and the corresponding user account are identified through the mapping relation between the user image and the user, and the server carries out statistical operation on the habit data of watching programs according to the identified user. In order to reduce power consumption and save storage space, whether the server needs to carry out statistical operation on the habit data of the user is judged according to the signal source of the current channel watched by the user. Switching different signal sources of the intelligent television is to switch the input port of the intelligent television. Each channel corresponding to a signal source provided by a video input port such as an ATV, a DTV, an HDMI, an AV and the like has a unique signal ID for channel identification, whether the current viewing channel is an analog television channel or a digital television channel is judged according to the signal source of the current viewing channel of a user, and when the current viewing channel is determined to be the analog television channel or the digital television channel, a server starts to record habit data (namely channel information) of a program viewed by the user according to the identified user after receiving an instruction sent by an intelligent television, and stores the habit data into a database according to user distinction. The habit data comprises the time of starting playing of the current channel, the time of finishing playing of the channel, the channel number, the channel name and the name of the program which is played currently.
Further, in order to prevent the misjudgment caused by the misoperation of the user, the server only records the channel information of which the watching time length is longer than a first preset time (such as 3 minutes), and if the watching time length of the user is not longer than the first preset time, the server judges that the user stays for a short time when the channel is switched, and does not record. Certainly, in order to prevent the user from directly turning off the television after watching a certain channel for a long time and collecting no end data, the channel data of the current user is counted every second preset time (for example, 5 minutes), and the watching time is gradually accumulated, so that even if the user is suddenly turned off, little loss is brought to the user data collection. The server sorts the channel information according to the watching duration and the watching times of the channel, and stores the channel information into the database, wherein if the watching duration is longer, the channel information is closer to the front, the sorting number is smaller, and if the watching times is higher, the channel information is closer to the front, the sorting number is smaller.
Further, when it is detected that the current channel starts to insert advertisements, if a certain set of programs is played completely, the smart television automatically pops up a shortcut channel list or receives a key signal triggered by a determination key (i.e., a first key) on a remote controller by a user to call up the shortcut channel list, and simultaneously sends an instruction for calling program viewing habit data to the server. And displaying the shortcut channel list in a full screen mode to present a semitransparent effect. The content displayed in each row of the shortcut channel list includes a current channel number, a channel name, a program currently being played, and a time when a next program starts to be played. The content cannot exceed 50 characters. And the user can visually check the related information of each channel according to the shortcut channel list and can freely switch the required channel according to the requirement.
Further, after the smart television receives an instruction fed back by the server, a shortcut channel list of program watching habit data corresponding to the current user after comprehensive sequencing is displayed.
That is, specifically, step S10 includes the steps of:
s101, when detecting that the advertisement is started to be inserted, sending an instruction for calling program watching habit data to a server;
and S102, after receiving the instruction fed back by the server, displaying the ordered shortcut channel list of the program watching habit data corresponding to the current user.
Step S20, when it is detected that the user selects the channel to be switched according to the current shortcut channel list, the latest playing time of the channel to be switched is obtained.
Specifically, the user selects the column of the channel name of the channel to be switched according to the shortcut channel list displayed on the smart television, and obtains an Electronic Program menu (EPG for short) of the channel watched by the current user. Each piece of EPG information includes a content profile of a program, a program type, a play time, and a channel number. Therefore, according to the EPG program information, the channel name corresponding to the channel number, the program currently being played and the time when the next program starts to be played can be directly obtained, and the digital television channel has the EPG program information in the real-time live stream, so that the digital television channel can directly obtain the EPG program information. However, the analog television channel has no EPG program information but only a channel number, and at this time, the image processing technology is adopted to obtain a channel name corresponding to the channel number, a program currently being played, and a playing start time of a next program, specifically: according to the characteristics that each channel has a specific channel identifier, and the pattern and the position of the channel identifier are fixed, the channel identifier area of a channel image on the smart television is intercepted, and is matched with a preset channel identifier template one by one, the identification result is output, the channel identifier information corresponding to the channel is obtained, and finally the EPG program information corresponding to the channel is downloaded from a server through the Internet according to the channel identifier information, so that the channel name corresponding to the channel number, the program currently played and the playing time of the next program can be obtained at the moment, and the channel name, the program currently played and the playing time of the next program are simultaneously stored in a database.
In order to facilitate quick selection and search of a channel to be switched, channel information of each line of the quick channel list is distinguished by font marks with different colors, if the channel information at the front position after comprehensive sorting does not correspond to a program which is currently played, the color of the displayed font is green, and the color of the font of other programs is white. It should be noted that the font color is not limited, and can be set by user according to the user's preference.
Further, after the user selects the channel name, the latest playing time of the channel to be switched in the electronic program menu, that is, the playing starting time of the next program, is obtained. At this time, a channel switching reminding function for reminding a user of performing channel switching operation can be set through a second key reminding key on the remote controller, and the channel switching reminding function is started after the intelligent television receives a key signal triggered by the key.
That is, specifically, step S20 includes the steps of:
s201, when detecting that a user selects a channel to be switched according to a current shortcut channel list, acquiring an electronic program menu of a current user watching channel;
and S202, after receiving a key signal triggered by the second key through the remote controller, starting a channel switching reminding function for reminding a user of carrying out channel switching operation, and acquiring the latest playing time of a channel to be switched in the electronic program menu.
And step S30, when the current time reaches the latest playing time, popping up a prompt box to prompt the user to confirm the channel switching.
Specifically, when the channel switching reminding function is started, the latest playing time of the channel corresponding to the channel name selected by the user is obtained, and the playing time of the next program is started. And when the current time is detected to be equal to the latest playing time, popping up a prompt box to prompt the user to confirm whether to perform channel switching operation again.
Further, the smart television automatically saves the setting record of the channel to be switched, and when the new record is reset, the record saved last time is automatically updated.
That is, specifically, step S30 includes the steps of:
s301, acquiring current time;
s302, when the current time is detected to be equal to the latest playing time, a prompt box pops up to prompt a user whether to confirm the channel switching.
In step S40, when an instruction for confirming the channel switching is received, the channel switching is completed.
Specifically, after step S30, if the user selects and confirms to perform the channel switching operation, that is, selects "yes", the current program is controlled to be switched to the channel corresponding to the channel name according to the channel name of the channel to be switched.
That is, specifically, step S40 includes the steps of:
s401, when an instruction that a user selects and confirms to switch a channel is received, acquiring the name of the channel to be switched;
s402, controlling the current program to be switched to the channel corresponding to the channel name according to the channel name.
In order to further understand the technical solution of the present invention, the above steps S10-S40 are described by using three specific embodiments, for example, example 1, example 2, and example 3:
example 1:
in the recent period of time, a user basically watches Shandong satellite television at night every day, watches the continuous drama Dongfeng breaker, and plays two sets at night every day, 10-minute advertisements are arranged between the two sets, and the obtained EPG program information is as follows:
19: 45-20: 27 Dongfeng Yao 35
20: 27-20: 37 advertisement
20: 37-21: 19 Dongfeng Yao 36
When the 20:27 Dongfeng breaker 35 set is played, the advertisement insertion is started. When the advertisement is played, the quick channel list can be automatically popped up without manual calling or
When the advertisement is started to play, the user can select the jumping channel to watch other programs, but the user worrys about watching other channel programs and missing wonderful content of the Dongfeng Shao 36 set, and at the moment, the user can call up the shortcut channel list by pressing the determination key of the remote controller. Since two eastern winds are broken every night, the time is about 90 minutes, the watching times and time are longer than other channels, the Shandong satellite (i.e. the corresponding channel name) is at the forefront of the shortcut channel list. At this time, the contents displayed in the first row of the shortcut channel list are:
1 Shandongdong satellite television currently playing advertisement 20:37 starting playing Dongfeng Cao 36
The user selects it, presses the 'remind' key, and the realized function is: when the east-west satellite television, 20:37, starts playing the east-wind-broken 36-set, a prompt box appears, namely whether the favorite program of you starts playing and is switched to the corresponding channel or not, so that the user can select 'yes' or 'no' operation. Therefore, when the user watches other programs, the reminding time of 20:37 is up, a prompt box appears, and the user can quickly switch to the corresponding channel on time to watch the favorite program when selecting 'yes'.
