Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of top set boxes, and provides a bidirectional top set box based bill pushing method, device and system. The method comprises the following steps: the bidirectional top set box sends a user request carrying user information to a front end server; after receiving the user request, the front end server finds out the corresponding bill content according to the user information in a matching way and returns the bill content to the bidirectional top set box; the bidirectional top set box converts the bill content into a web page bill and transmits the web page bill to the terminal display equipment; the terminal display equipment displays the webpage bill to one side of the video image synchronously. According to the embodiment of the invention, the bill content is displayed on a screen in a mode of inserting a web page bill under the condition of not affecting the TV watching, so that the video window and the web page bill are displayed synchronously and users can obtain the consumption information easily.

Description

Technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of set-top boxes, in particular to a two-way set-top box and a front-end server for pushing bills.

Background technique

[0002] At present, when using set-top boxes to watch TV programs, users can only inquire about their own consumption information through business halls, telephone customer service and online business halls, but these three methods have their own shortcomings. The business hall requires users to go to a specific place, and the telephone customer service cannot guarantee a 100% connection rate due to limited seats, and the online business hall is not suitable for users of all ages.

[0003] In view of this, it is an urgent problem to be solved in this technical field to overcome the defects in the prior art.

Content of invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a bill push method, device and system based on a two-way set-top box. ...

Examples

Embodiment 1

[0028] Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a bill push method based on a two-way set-top box. The scope of application of the method in this embodiment includes not only bill push in a cable television network, but also bill push in a wireless network. Such as figure 1 As shown, the method specifically includes the following steps:

[0029] In step 201, the two-way set-top box sends a user request carrying user information to the front-end server.

[0030] The user request may be sent after the two-way set-top box is successfully authenticated; it may also be initiated by the user controlling its matching remote controller after startup.

[0031] In step 202, after receiving the user request, the front-end server matches and finds the corresponding bill content according to the carried user information, and returns the bill content to the two-way set-top box.

[0032] Wherein, the user information can be used as a keyword for indexing the bill content; further, th...

Embodiment 2

[0052] The embodiment of the present invention provides a two-way set-top box with a bill push function, including a data output interface 11, a digital cable interface 12 and a processor 13, such as figure 2 As shown, the specific structural relationship is as follows:

[0053] The data output interface 11 is connected to a terminal display device, and is used to transmit the content to be displayed on the screen of the terminal display device to the terminal display device.

[0054] Wherein, the displayed content includes: videos and web page bills.

[0055] The digital cable interface 12 is used to send a user request carrying user information to the front-end server; it is also used to receive the bill content returned by the front-end server.

[0056] The processor 13 is configured to generate the user request carrying user information, and send it to the front-end server through the digital cable interface 12 .

[0057] The processor 13 is further configured to conver...

Embodiment 3

[0063] The embodiment of the present invention also provides a bill pushing system based on a two-way set-top box, the system includes a two-way set-top box 1, a terminal display device 2 and a front-end server 3, such as figure 2 As shown, specifically:

[0064] The two-way set-top box 1 is configured to send a user request carrying user information to the front-end server 3;

[0065] The front-end server 3 is configured to, after receiving the user request, match and find the corresponding bill content according to the carried user information, and return the bill content to the two-way set-top box 1;

[0066] The two-way set-top box 2 is also used to convert the bill content into a web page bill and transmit it to the terminal display device 2;

[0067] The terminal display device 2 is configured to synchronously display the web page bill on one side of the video screen.
