Problems solved by technology

It mainly includes several aspects: First, some terminals such as set-top boxes or PCs may not support RTSP redirection signaling, which will result in no content for the user to watch on the node device to which the user belongs, while other node devices have this content , even if the belonging node device returns the redirection signaling to the user, the user cannot go to other nodes for service, resulting in the failure of ordering. It causes a burden for the set-top box to process signaling; third, for some HTTP servers that can only provide HTTP services, even if the node device to which the user belongs returns a new redirection address, the redirected node device can only provide HTTP services , and the set-top box only supports RTSP signaling, causing the redirected node device to be unable to perform RTSP signaling interaction with the set-top box, resulting in that even if the redirected node device is an HTTP server with content that can be provided, it still cannot serve the set-top box Provide on-demand service

Embodiment 1

[0045] image 3 Shows the implementation process of the first specific embodiment of the optimization method for user-on-demand, such as image 3 As shown, in Embodiment 1, the process of realizing communication between the streaming media server of the edge content distribution network (CDN) and the backbone HTTP server is specifically described, wherein, image 3 The backbone HTTP server in is the streaming media server after redirection; This embodiment one comprises the following steps:

[0046] Step 301, the province's MLSS receives the on-demand content request sent by the STB;

[0047] In steps 302-303, the MLSS of the province queries the streaming media server managed by itself, and when relaying is required, the predefined needrelay is set to 1, otherwise the needrelay is set to 0;

[0048] Step 304, when a relay is needed, add a field of needrelay=1 in the response URL, and send the response URL to the streaming media server by returning redirection information;

...

Embodiment 2

[0064] Figure 4 Shows the implementation process of the second specific embodiment of the optimization method for user-on-demand, such as Figure 4 As shown, in embodiment two, the stream media server of home and redirection belong to the same MLSS management, wherein, the stream media server of redirection is HTTP server; This embodiment two comprises the following steps:

[0065] Step 401, STB sends DESCRIBE request content to its own streaming media server;

[0066] Step 402, when the attributable streaming media server cannot find the requested content locally, it searches the database of the MLSS for the requested content according to the contentid of the received information;

[0067] Step 403, when finding the address of the streaming media server where the requested content is located, the MLSS returns a redirected streaming media server address to the home streaming media, wherein the redirected streaming media server address is The address of the streaming media s...

Abstract

The present invention provides a user-ordered optimization method and system. The method includes: when the streaming media server cannot find the program requested by the STB locally, request the program from the MLSS; The address of the redirected streaming media server and the parameter information of the program are communicated with the redirected streaming media server to obtain the program content and send it to the STB. The present invention communicates with the redirected streaming media server through the streaming media server, reduces the signaling interaction between the STB and the streaming media server, improves the efficiency of the STB, and especially when the redirected streaming media server is an HTTP server, it also It can realize the function of HTTP server to provide RTSP service for STB, and can provide on-demand service for users who do not support STB and PC redirecting RTSP signaling and have no local service content to provide, which optimizes user on-demand.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of user ordering, in particular to an optimization method and system for user ordering. Background technique [0002] In an interactive network television (IPTV) system, a media server can provide users with on-demand services. Here, the user may be a terminal such as a set-top box, a PC, or a mobile phone. How to provide users with on-demand services, how to provide users with fast on-demand services, how to improve the processing efficiency of set-top boxes, and quickly provide services for set-top boxes are all key issues to optimize user-on-demand and improve the efficiency of IPTV system services. [0003] Combine below figure 1 The structure of the IPTV system is shown, and the process of user ordering in the current IPTV system is explained: in the IPTV system, the user wants to order a certain program, and the set-top box (Set Top Box, STB) needs to send a real-time streaming protocol to th...
