The system realizes abundant and flexible time shifting television watching functions such as channel classification, program classification, live broadcast playback and the like through a bidirectional set-top box with embedded browser software, a time shifting program editing workstation, digital encoding equipment, a video acquisition and storage server, an acquisition control service, a database server, a web electronic program guide (WEBEPG) server and an official development assistance (ODA) server.

Description

[0001] technical field [0002] The invention relates to an information system for enhancing the function of a digital cable TV set, in particular to a two-way set-top box system with time-shifted on-demand services. Background technique [0003] Due to the limitations of the traditional broadcasting method Electronic Program Menu (EPG), it is very difficult to provide users with updated and timely time-shifted service EPG information and user interface customization. The content of channels broadcast by satellite channel signals will change with the migration of time, changes in user needs, and business adjustments, while conventional two-way set-top boxes cannot upgrade the electronic program menu for satellite channel signal upgrades or changes Or adjustments that cause inconvenience to users and need improvement. Contents of the invention [0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a two-way set-top box syst...
