Problems solved by technology

[0015] EPG server-side middleware appears in the form of server-side middleware and can only be integrated with third-party application servers. If terminals such as PDAs and set-top boxes directly need EPG data, they cannot be integrated in this form, which restricts the interface of EPG.
[0016] EPG data is a kind of real-time data. The background server collects data for a period of time in the future. Based on this method, EPG data often appears inaccurate.
The background server does not provide the function of EPG data monitoring and modification. Even if the EPG data that has been played is inaccurate, it will not be modified on the background server, and then synchronized to the third-party application business through the business-side EPG middleware.

Embodiment Construction

[0053] The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0054] image 3 It is a schematic structural diagram of a system providing EPG services in a specific embodiment of the present invention. Such as image 3 As shown, the system includes an EPG download module 401 , an EPG analysis module 402 , an EPG editing module 403 , an EPG database 404 , an EPG interface service module 405 and an EPG message notification module 406 .

[0055] The EPG download module is connected with the EPG analysis module to obtain EPG data and send it to the EPG analysis module.

[0056] The EPG analysis module is respectively connected with the EPG download module, the EPG editing module and the database, obtains the EPG data from the EPG download module and / or the EPG editing module, organizes program keyword information, and establishes a program collection, and sends i...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a system for providing electronic program guide services, wherein, an EPG download module acquires EPG data and transmits the data to an EPG analysis module; the EPG analysis module parses EPG data files and transmits the program information to an EPG database; the EPG analysis module builds a program set according to the correlation of program information; the EPG analysis module collects the classified information according to the sorting of programs and converts plane data into tree structured data; and an EPG interface service module releases program data information to terminals. The method and the system adopt the technical proposal to reduce the processing work of a third-party application business system to EPG data, lower the coupling degree of EPG data and specific services, provide richer data support for third-party applications, and make related business functions more powerful.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of digital television, in particular to a method and system for providing electronic program guide services. Background technique [0002] Electronic Program Guide (EPG) data is an important basic data supporting various services in the field of digital television. As the basic business system in the two-way system, the EPG service system supports various services in the two-way system. At the same time, as an interface for one-way data transmission to two-way systems, it also provides rich EPG data for various value-added application systems and terminals, so that users can get a better user experience. [0003] However, the use of EPG data is still at the basic stage, and it cannot adapt well to the development of interactive digital TV services, so that the third-party applications are greatly restricted. figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of an EPG service system in the prior art. Such as ...
