Problems solved by technology

Therefore, usually the IPTV channel switching time should not exceed 2s, otherwise users cannot bear the waiting time for channel switching
At present, the slow switching time of IPTV channels is also an urgent problem to be solved

Embodiment Construction

[0058] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0059] Refer below figure 1 , the figure shows a method for reducing network TV channel switching delay according to an embodiment of the present invention, which specifically includes steps:

[0060] Step S101: The IPTV system plans a multicast association mode, so that each multicast group has a group of multicast groups associated with it;

[0061] The applicant keenly noticed that general users often have certain habits when using IPTV to switch programs. For example, they like to use the up and down navigation keys to switch channels, and for example, they like to watch the same type of channels and switch between the same type of channels. Etc. Therefore, a planning scheme is proposed in the present invention, and multicast group association is performed according to user habits, and then a practical and effective method for reducing handover de...

Abstract

The invention provides a method and system for reducing time delay of switching channels of network TV, the method comprises that a network TV system plans a multicast association mode; after receives packet of a request access multicast group from a terminal, the network TV system adjudges the other multicast group associated with the request access multicast group according to the multicast association mode, enables the terminal to join the requested access multicast group and the other multicast group associated therewith, provides normal multicast flow of the multicast group of which the terminal requests to access, does not provide or provides low-clear multicast flow of the other multicast group associated with the request access multicast group; when the terminal switches channels,the network TV system adjudges that the terminal has joined into the multicast group of the channel requested to access, then provides normal multicast flow of the multicast group of the channel requested to access for the terminal. The method can reduce time delay of switching channels of network TV, further improve quality of service of network TV service.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to Internet TV, in particular to a method and system for reducing network TV channel switching delay. Background technique [0002] Internet TV (IPTV) service refers to the general term for live broadcast of TV programs, video on demand, time-shifted playback and other various application services provided to users through IP bearer network and capable of supporting interactive capabilities. The emergence of IPTV has enabled traditional telecom operators to see new business growth points. Operators can no longer be limited to providing voice services and network bandwidth, and integrate their superior network resources to seek innovative services and innovative business profit models. Traditional radio and television operators can also use IPTV as a new TV program marketing method to sell a large number of idle program resources. IPTV will provide new opportunities for the development of radio and television. [0003] IPTV progra...
