Embodiment Construction

[0015] Please refer to the figure 1 , shows a schematic diagram of the connection between the set-top box 100 and the video server 300 in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0016] The set-top box 100 in one embodiment of the present invention is connected to the video server 300 through the broadband network 200 . The broadband network 200 includes a broadband network using a digital subscriber loop technology, a broadband network using a fiber-coaxial hybrid cable technology, and the like. The video server 300 stores video resources required by the STB 100 .

[0017] The set-top box 100 in one embodiment of the present invention includes a man-machine interface unit 111, a connection request (Setup request) unit 113, a play request (Play request) unit 115, a standard play time calculation unit 119, an overload detection unit 117 , a playback unit 121 and a teardown request unit 123 .

[0018] In this embodiment, the user can control the connection request unit 113 ,...

Abstract

A set top box can dispose the condition of video server's overweight, it includes play-requesting cell, playing cell, detecting overweight condition cell, and standard playing timing cell. The requesting cell sends request to video server; the playing cell plays the film delivered back by video server; the detecting overweight cell detects if the video server is overweighed. The invention also discloses a kind of method used for the regarded set top box to dispose video server's overweight. It can detect the video server's overweight in time, and works out the overweight timing automatically to lighten video server's burden and prevents repeated playing.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to a network device and its method for dealing with server overload, in particular to a set-top box and its method for dealing with video server overload. 【Background technique】 [0002] The video-on-demand function plays a very important role in the Multimedia On Demand (MOD) service, because the user can freely select the video to play through the function, and can control the playback process. All the above-mentioned functions need to be realized through a real-time streaming protocol (Real-Time Streaming Protocol, RTSP). [0003] The set top box (Set Top Box) sends a connection request to the video server through the real-time streaming protocol, and if the video server accepts the connection request, it means that both parties have successfully connected. Then, the set-top box sends a play request to the video server, and if the video server accepts the play request, the video will be sent to the set-top box. During the p...
