Problems solved by technology

When users use terminal equipment other than digital TV terminals to watch programs, it is impossible to implement program tracking and playback using related technologies
On the other hand, in the related technology, only the episode update information of the program is returned to the digital TV terminal, and the digital TV terminal cannot easily obtain the updated episode of the program, so the updated episode cannot be played quickly and conveniently.

Abstract

The invention discloses a device and method for track playing of a program. The device and method are used for achieving track playing of the program in various terminal devices so that a user can watch updated episodes of the program with different terminal devices in different places. The method for track playing of the program comprises the steps that a program chasing request sent by a client side is received, wherein the program chasing request contains the name and the episode, being watched at present, of the program; the new episodes of the program are obtained according to the name and the episode being watched at present of the program; the new episodes of the program are pushed to the client side. According to the device and method for track playing of the program, the hardware difference between various terminal devices is shielded, the users can watch the new episodes of the program with different terminal devices in different places, and the user can watch the new episodes of the program in which the users are interested rapidly and conveniently.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of video playing, and in particular to a method and device for tracking and playing programs. Background technique [0002] At present, most programs are firstly broadcast on TV stations, and the video content of the program will appear on the network after a certain period of time after broadcasting on TV stations. If the user misses the time when the TV station broadcasts the program and does not watch the program, he needs to wait for a period of time to watch the program through the network video source. Because the network video sources are rich and diverse, users have certain difficulties when selecting network video sources to watch programs. Therefore, a program tracking and playing technology has been produced accordingly, which is used to track the progress of the program and play the program according to the update of the program. [0003] In the related art, the method for tracking and...
