Control method of smart home equipment based on set-top box

Abstract

The invention provides a control method for realizing smart home equipments based on an STB (Set Top Box). The control method comprises the steps of installing the following functional modules: a user interface module, a smart home control module, a buffer module, a smart home drive module, a media playing control module and a media decoding drive module on the STB; controlling all the smart home equipments and monitoring the real-time status by the smart home control module; the smart home drive module is used for transmitting instructions and obtaining status parameters to the smart home equipment, and then reporting to the smart home control module after the status parameters are shielded; realizing a media decoding function by the media playing control module; outputting data decoded by the media playing control module to a digital TV (Television) and / or audio equipment by the media decoding drive module. According to the SBT of the digital TV provided by the invention, a background music function can be realized, and a talkback video decoding function and a media demanding function can be monitored.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention specifically relates to a control method for implementing smart home equipment based on a set-top box. Background technique [0002] In the smart home field, a dedicated control box is often used to control peripheral smart devices, called a smart home gateway. The function of this kind of gateway is single, and most of them can only control the smart home equipment of the designated manufacturer, which is not easy to expand, and at the same time increases the cost of the control host part. In addition, this kind of gateway does not have audio and video codec functions. In the complete smart home control functions such as background music, video intercom, video on demand, and live TV, most of the current smart home gateways cannot support such application scenarios, or It can only be realized by adding peripheral audio and video decoders, so that the overall price of smart home equipment remains high, which cannot be accepted by the publ...
