Abstract

The invention is applied to the technical field of set-top boxes, and provides a set-top box upgrading method and a set-top box terminal. The method comprises the steps that television program code stream sent out from a network side is received; the television code stream comprises an upgrading frequency point list of a main operator and an upgrading frequency point list of a sub-operator; and according to the search sequence of upgrading frequency points, firstly whether new-version set-top box software exists in the current operator frequency point arranged in the set-top box system is examined, and if the new-version set-top box software exists, the set-top box is upgraded by taking the current upgrading frequency point as the upgrading frequency point. The set-top box upgrading method and the set-top box terminal solve the problem that the upgrading frequency points of a plurality of sub-operators can not be united due to history reasons but the sub-operators have the requirements on upgrading the same software.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of set-top boxes, and in particular relates to a method for upgrading a set-top box and a set-top box terminal. Background technique [0002] As an important part of the emerging digital TV field, the set-top box plays an increasingly irreplaceable role. Set-top box technology is in a stage of rapid development, and operators need to frequently upgrade customers' set-top box terminals to implement new functions and new technologies. Operators, especially foreign operators, are generally composed of provincial-level operators and sub-operators of provincial-level operators; although these operating units use a unified upgrade server, due to OTA (Over-the-Air technology, OTA technology) the upgrade frequency is inconsistent, which makes the upgrade process more complicated. [0003] The method adopted in the prior art is that the operator fixes a certain frequency point as the upgrade frequency point, and th...
