Upgrading method of digital television terminal, digital television terminal, digital television server and upgrading system of digital television terminal

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of software upgrading, and particularly relates to an upgrading method of a digital television terminal, the digital television terminal, and an upgrading system of the digital television terminal. The method comprises the steps as follows: the digital television terminal downloads upgrading software and acquires first effective time of the upgrading software; after the downloading is completed, the information indicating that the downloading of the upgrading software is completed is sent to a server; the digital television terminal is upgraded in the first effective time, or second effective time is acquired before the first effective time, the digital television terminal is upgraded in the second effective time, and the second effective time is later than the first effective time. The effective time is reasonably set in the embodiment of the invention to upgrade the digital television terminal and distribute time slice information, so that not only is a network channel of a digital television prevented from being occupied for a long period of time as the digital television terminal is upgraded and downloads at the same time, but also convenience is brought to system maintenance personnel of a server end, and the difficulty in system maintenance is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of software upgrading, in particular to an upgrading method, terminal and system of a digital television terminal. Background technique [0002] The digital TV system is divided into two parts, the user terminal and the server. The one-way network system is the most commonly used in the prior art. The functions of the user terminals in the one-way network mostly depend on the front-end equipment of the radio and television network. When the front-end equipment needs to be upgraded, the software modules of the user terminal also need to be upgraded accordingly to ensure normal functions. The upgrade method is to perform one-way broadcast upgrade to the designated storage area, and the user terminal can only passively accept the upgrade package data in the broadcast code stream. During the software upgrade process, since the set-top box is a device used by the user, it is turned off when it is not in use. Only when it ...
