[0019] figure 1 It is a flow chart of the TV software update method provided by the first embodiment of the present invention. First, in step 210, information related to the target upgrade version is obtained from a server. For example, there may be a configuration file saved with a predetermined name under a predetermined path on the server, and the configuration file may adopt an extensible markup language (Extensible Markup Language, XML) format or other formats, for example. The configuration file has information related to the target upgrade version. The above information may include, for example, its version number, previous version number, release time, list of related files, and so on. In this case, it is necessary to download the configuration file from the server and read the above information from the configuration file.

[0020] In addition, in the server, the above information is not limited to be stored in the form of configuration files. For example, the abo...

[0030] The third embodiment of the present invention provides a method for updating TV software, which is similar to the method for updating TV software in the first embodiment, except that before step 230, a step of obtaining sequence information of an upgraded version is also included. The upgrade version sequence sequentially stores information from the updateable version closest to the current version of the TV to the target upgrade version. Specifically, for example, the relevant information can be read from the configuration file of the target upgrade version, and the previous version information saved in the configuration file is used as an index to obtain the configuration file of the previous version and read the relevant information, and repeat this process until it matches the The closest updateable version of the current version of the TV software. The information read in the above process can be stored in the above-mentioned upgraded version sequence information, ...

[0033] The third embodiment of the present invention provides a TV software update method, which is similar to the TV software update method in the first embodiment, the difference lies in the specific implementation means of step 230 . In this embodiment, the server will have a configuration file that saves the history of all version updates. For example, this configuration file can be in XML format. For each historical version, there is a node in the above-mentioned XML format configuration file. For example, the node can include a list file path representing its version, previous version, release date, and upgrade related files. Attributes or sub-nodes such as content.

[0034] see image 3 In the method for obtaining the updateable version closest to the current version of the TV software in this embodiment, step 410 is first performed to download the configuration file storing the version update history from the server. Next, step 420, read the first node from the confi...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for updating television software. The television software has the current version. This update method includes: obtaining information of a target upgrade version of the TV software from a server, this information at least includes version information and a list of upgrade or update files; if the target upgrade version is newer than the current version of the TV software, then: the steps 1: Obtain the information of the updateable version closest to the current version of the TV software; Step 2: update the TV software according to the information of the closest updateable version and update the current version of the TV software accordingly; and repeat Step 1 and Step 2 until the current version of the TV software is the same as the target upgrade version. The above TV software update method can avoid software operation error, inoperability and possible system downtime caused by file loss or data error. In addition, the invention also provides a TV software updating device and system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to TV software updating, in particular to a TV software updating method, device and system. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the Internet and users' demand for two-way interactive services for TV products, the networking of TV products is one of the inevitable directions for the development of the TV industry. The ever-changing network environment, abundant Internet content and hardware development of embedded systems make the launch cycle of new services and functions shorter and shorter. To enjoy the convenient services of new functions, it is necessary to update the operating system or software of the TV. Upgrade update. [0003] At the same time, as a typical embedded system, the upgrade of the traditional TV operating system generally adopts the so-called burning method, that is, when the main system is not turned on, the burning program is run to write the burning file into the memory For example...
