Example Embodiment

[0026] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, but not to limit the present invention.

[0027] figure 1 It is a flow chart of a method for upgrading a set-top box in one embodiment. like figure 1 As shown, the set-top box upgrade method includes the following steps:

[0028] S10: Multiple set-top boxes are connected to each other, and versions of multiple set-top boxes are compared.

[0029] Usually, there will be multiple (2 or more) TVs in a family, and multiple set-top boxes will be installed. Or within a certain distance, for example, there will be multiple set-top boxes on the same floor or in the same building, or even more distant. Multiple set-top boxes can be co...

Abstract

The invention relates to a set top box upgrading method and system. The method comprises the steps that a plurality of set top boxes are connected with each other to compare versions of the set top boxes, the set top box with the latest version is used as a server according to the comparison result, the set top box used as the server responses upgrading requests of other set top boxes and sends the self version to the other set top boxes, and the other set top boxes receive the latest version and are upgraded according to the received version. According to the set top box upgrading method, the set top boxes are connected with each other, and the set top box with the latest version is used as the server to substitute a leading end to upgrade other set top boxes. Thus, the other set top boxes can be stably and quickly upgraded without relying on the internet, television lines and the like, the problem that the set top boxes cannot be upgraded due to communication fault of the leading end or overlarge pressure is solved, the set top boxes can be upgraded normally, fault is avoided, and the performance of the set top boxes and the use of users can be effectively guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of communications, in particular to a method and system for upgrading a set-top box. Background technique [0002] At present, the set-top box needs to be frequently upgraded in the course of use, so as to update and maintain the functions and applications of the set-top box. [0003] The existing set-top box upgrade methods all need to be connected to the front end through a network or a connection signal line, and the front end will perform the upgrade. However, due to communication failures or excessive pressure on the front-end, the communication between the set-top box and the front-end is often slow and unstable, or even unable to connect to the front-end, which makes the set-top box upgrade slowly or even impossible to upgrade normally. If the set-top box cannot be upgraded normally, some functions and applications of the set-top box will be unavailable or malfunction, which will greatly affect the per...
