Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of terminal application and IP application, in particular to an information display method suitable for an IPTV remote controller and a device for displaying information on the IPTV remote controller. Background technique [0002] With the maturity of IPTV technology, various IPTV applications have entered the majority of families. Because the existing IPTV remote controller is different from the traditional TV remote controller, many dedicated buttons are added, and the display function is lacking. Although some IPTV remote controllers have display screens, the display screens have little to do with the functions of the IPTV remote controllers. Users are often not clear about the functions of these special keys, and they must read the instruction manual to understand them. Therefore, most users seldom use these keys, which reduces the efficiency of using these functions and is not conducive to cultivating users' good...

Problems solved by technology

Because the existing IPTV remote controller is different from the traditional TV remote controller, many dedicated buttons are added, and the display function is lacking. Although some IPTV remote controllers have display screens, the display screens have little to do with the functions of the IPTV remote controllers. Users are often not clear about the functions of these special keys, and they must read the instruction manual to understand them. Therefore, most users rarely use these keys, which reduces the efficiency of these functions and is not conducive to cultivating users' good usage habits.

[0003] On the other hand, with the increasing variety of IPTV applications, from early interactive applications such as simple video-on-demand to new interactive applications such as TV shopping, electronic payment, and instant messaging, users are generally required to input information related to the application through the IPTV remote control. Text information or control information, these text or control information can be displayed on the TV display screen, and the user can make a choice by browsing the information, but because the TV set is often far away from the user in the family, the displayed font is also relatively small, so It is difficult for users to determine each word, which also affects users' interest in IPTV interactive services
