Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, since the current TV programs are basically encrypted and transmitted, decryption hardware modules and corresponding smart cards are required to complete the decryption, so if multiple TVs are required to watch digital TV, additional set-top boxes and smart cards must be purchased, and viewing fees must be paid monthly , while watching TV on a mobile device requires specialized equipment and authorization
[0004] Therefore, the existing technology still needs to be improved and developed

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and a system for sharing television programs based on an STB. The method includes that a connection is built between an intelligent terminal and the STB, the STB sends a program list to the intelligent terminal which feeds a selection instruction of a user back to the STB, the STB controls a bottom drive to obtain audio / video data of corresponding programs and sends the data to the intelligent terminal after encoding and packaging the data, the intelligent terminal unpacks and decodes the received data, and the bottom drive is called for playing the unpacked and decoded audio / video data. Program control and encoding software is operated on the STB directly, the STB is used as decryption and decoding equipment as well as a video server, live TV programs are shared by family IP networks, other smart television, smart phones and tablet PCs, so that family sharing of live program videos is achieved on the premise that no hardware equipment is added, costs are saved, and viewing experience is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of methods and systems for live broadcasting of television programs through intelligent terminals, in particular to a method and system for sharing television programs based on set-top boxes with low cost and low viewing fees. Background technique [0002] At present, China's domestic TV network has basically completed digital conversion. Users use set-top boxes to receive digital signals, and after decryption and decoding, the video is output to the TV screen to watch TV programs. However, more and more families not only own a TV, but also start to watch TV programs on smart terminals such as mobile phones and tablets through WIFI wireless network. [0003] However, since the current TV programs are basically encrypted and transmitted, decryption hardware modules and corresponding smart cards are required to complete the decryption, so if multiple TVs are required to watch digital TV, additional set-top boxes and sma...
