Embodiment approach

[0063] In the interactive voting carousel channel, the user can browse the metadata of all the carousel programs included in the carousel channel, and for the next program to be played, the user can use the remote control to vote through the user equipment. And you can use the remote control to choose to view the voting status of the current video on demand (COD) list. Before the next program is played, the user can select a carousel program in the carousel program list displayed on the user equipment through the remote control to vote. If the carousel program A is selected, it means that the user requests the next carousel channel to be played. The broadcast program is carousel program A; at this time, the user equipment sends a play request of carousel program A. After the user votes through the user equipment, summarize the voting status of all users in the carousel channel, queue up and count the number of user votes for each carousel program in the carousel channel, and d...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method, a device and a system for realizing interactive near video-on-demand (NVOD) channels, which relate to the field of the NVOD channels and can realize the interactive NVOD channels at relatively low operating cost. The method comprises the following steps of: sending the metadata of an NVOD program to user equipment; receiving a playing request of the NVOD program sent by the user equipment, wherein the playing request comprises the NVOD program selected in the metadata of the NVOD program by a user through the user equipment; and determining the next NVOD program to be played according to the playing request, and sending a media stream of the determined NVOD program in a multicasting / broadcasting form. The method, the device and the system are mainly applied to the NVOD channels and can be applied to an Internet protocol television (IPTV) system based on an IP multimedia subsystem (IMS).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of carousel channels, in particular to a method, device and system for realizing interactive carousel channels. Background technique [0002] A carousel (Near Video ON Demand, NVOD) channel service is an enhanced service in an interactive Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) system. A group of programs is selected by the operator, for example, one or more of hot movies, selected variety shows, or serial dramas to form a group of programs, and the selected program groups are played or cyclically played on one channel or multiple channels in the order of arrangement The programs in , constitute the carousel channel. [0003] In order to realize the interactivity between the carousel channel and the user, an interactive carousel channel is disclosed in the prior art. By deploying a voice-on-demand system on the carousel channel server side, end users access the interactive carousel channel server through voice e...
