Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the amount of EPG data is huge, and the storage space of EPG data memory is limited. Especially for embedded systems with low memory configuration, the space for storing EPG data is even more insufficient, often causing users to not be able to view the required EPG data. How to update it? To manage EPG data well and better ensure that users can view the EPG data they need is a problem that people have been studying.

Embodiment Construction

[0059] Embodiments of the present invention provide a method and device for managing EPG data in an electronic program guide, which can effectively manage EPG data and better ensure that users can view required EPG data.

[0060] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0061] see figure 1 A schematic flow chart of the first embodiment showing the method for managing EPG data of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0062] Step S101: receiving EIT information;

[0063] Specifically, in the current practical application, the EPG data required for TV broadcasting is the data information of the 0x4e-0x6F table, and the system receives the EIT information that is, receives all the data information of the 0x4e-0x6F table.

[0064] Step S102: Analyzing the received EIT information to obtain a program identifier corresponding to the EIT information;

[0065] Specifically, the s...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method for managing electronic program guide (EPG) data, which comprises the following steps: receiving EIT information of an event information table; resolving the received EIT information to acquire a program identifier corresponding to the EIT information; and judging whether the EIT information is the EIT information corresponding to the EPG data or not according to the program identifier, and if so, storing the EPG data in the EIT information. Correspondingly, the embodiment of the invention also discloses a device for managing the electronic program guide (EPG) data. The method and the device of the invention avoid the storage of non-EPG data so as to increase the storage space for the EPG data, can timely delete the data which is not on the same frequency point with the EPG data needed by a user, better guarantee that the user checks the needed EPG data, improve the user experience, and improve the performances and safety of a system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication electronics, in particular to a method and device for managing EPG data of an electronic program guide. Background technique [0002] Along with the increase of TV users' demand for various types of programs, the number of channels that TV users can watch also increases thereupon, and users hope that they can quickly and easily select desired broadcast programs from multiple channels. At present, the electronic program guide ( EPG, Electronic Program Guide) can meet the above needs of users. EPG is an essential function of digital TV set-top box systems and digital TV systems. By providing EPG data information to users, users can keep abreast of the broadcast time and content of programs within a week Introduce to select your favorite channel program. [0003] However, the amount of EPG data is huge, and the storage space of EPG data memory is limited. Especially for embedded systems with low memory ...
