Problems solved by technology

However, with the rapid development of the number of TV set-top box terminals, there are more and more download requests to the server that provides the video source of TV channel programs, which brings a heavy burden to the server.
In particular, since the server that provides the video source of the TV program does not know whether the TV set-top box terminal is online, it will send the downloaded video data to the offline TV terminal, which brings a huge waste of resources.
In addition, some illegal TV set-top box terminals also send download requests to servers that provide TV channel program video sources, which reduces the speed of downloading video data from legitimate TV set-top boxes and affects the viewing experience of viewers.

Embodiment 1

[0084]In the above embodiment, since the authentication server is mainly responsible for authority authentication and broadcast control of the set-top box terminal, the index server is only responsible for providing the list of channels that the set-top box terminal is authorized to play, and the stream server does not control the broadcast of channels / programs, but mainly provides video streams. , so the streaming server does not know whether the network connection with the set-top box is maintained. After the streaming server provides a video stream to the set-top box terminal, the connection with the set-top box terminal may be disconnected at a certain moment, but the streaming server does not It is known that it will continue to provide services for the disconnected set-top box terminal, and send video data to the offline TV terminal, which brings waste of resources.

[0085] In order to avoid the above situation from happening, the figure 1 On the basis of the shown embo...

Embodiment 2

[0089] In this embodiment, on the basis of Embodiment 1, the video playback request includes a request time; each time the authentication server receives a video playback request from a set-top box terminal, it updates the request time according to the request time in the video playback request. The duration of watching the requested channel / program by the set-top box terminal is used for other purposes such as statistics of the audience rating or popularity of the program by the video manufacturer. For example: if the set-top box terminal sends a video playback request to the authentication server for the first time, the request time is T 0 , the request time for sending the video playback request for the second time is T 1 , then the authentication server updates the duration T" for the set-top box terminal to watch the channel / program requested to be played as T"=T"+(T 1 -T 0 ); wherein, the initial value of T" is 0, if the time interval between any two video playback req...

Abstract

The invention discloses a television video playing method and a television video playing system, for reducing the burden of a single television server, and authenticating the effective permission of a set top box terminal. The method comprises the steps that the set top box terminal sends a permission authentication request to an authentication server; the authentication server sends a resource token to the set top box terminal; the set top box terminal sends a channel list request to an index server; the index server generates a channel list and sends the channel list to the set top box terminal; the set top box terminal receives the channel list and provides the channel list to a user, and initiates a video playing request to the authentication server; the authentication server generates a playing token and sends the playing token to the set top box terminal; the set top box terminal transmits the playing token to a streaming server; when the set top box terminal has permission, the streaming server acquires a video stream of a channel / program requested to be played with an allowable playing time from a current moment and sends the video stream to the set top box terminal; and the set top box terminal receives the video stream. The scheme of the method is small in the server burden, and fast in the video request processing speed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of multimedia technology, in particular to a method and system for playing television video. Background technique [0002] With the development of network technology, TV set-top box terminals provide TV viewers with clearer and clearer TV channel program pictures, more stable signals, and more and more diverse forms, which are loved by the majority of TV viewers. However, with the rapid development of the number of TV set-top box terminals, there are more and more download requests to the server providing the TV channel program video source, which brings a heavy burden to the server. In particular, since the server providing the TV program video source does not know whether the TV set-top box terminal is online, it will send the downloaded video data to the offline TV terminal, which brings huge waste of resources. In addition, some illegal TV set-top boxes also send download requests to servers that provide TV chann...
