Embodiment 1

[0050] The method for program recording control in this embodiment, such as figure 1 shown, including the following steps:

[0051] Step S101: The management server obtains the popularity information of the program from the popularity statistics server before the cache time of the program arrives;

[0052] In this step, generally two time attributes are set when the channel is created, one is cache time T1 (tstvtime), and the other is TVOD time T2 (tvodtime); where T2>=T1. The recording server uses unified storage to store programs. If there is no recording plan (recording task) issued, then the segment of the channel will be deleted after the T1 time is up; if there is a recording plan issued, the segment of the recording server must be It will be deleted after T2 time. Therefore, the management server must obtain the popularity information of the program from the popularity statistics server before the program cache time is reached, otherwise the program cannot be recorded...

Embodiment 2

[0063] The method for program recording control in this embodiment is mainly to count the number of times a program is played on the heat statistics server, and perform a series of processing on the program. First, add a heat statistics table A1 to the heat statistics server to record the program list. On-demand popularity, see attached figure 2 , which is a schematic diagram of the field structure of the table, and describes the fields:

[0064] Nodeid: is the recording server name;

[0065] Channelid: is the channel logo, a Channelid marks a channel;

[0066] Cid: It is the mark of the program list;

[0067] Number: the number of times the program list has been ordered by the user;

[0068] Endtime: the end time of the playbill;

[0069] Tstvtime: The cache duration of this channel.

[0070] Specific detailed steps, such as image 3 shown, including the following steps:

[0071] Step S201: stb plays one of the programs, and starts the process of reporting to the data...

Embodiment 3

[0091] The method of program recording control in this embodiment is mainly explained on the MDP at the management server side. First, two tables are added to the heat statistics server. Among them, the A2 table is basically the same as the A1 table on the recording server side, except that the nodeid is removed, because On the MDP side, there is no need to make statistics on the nodeid, it is the total number of on-demand broadcasts. For heat statistics table A3, see attached Figure 4 , which is a schematic diagram of the field structure of the table, and describes the fields:

[0092] Channeled: an indication of the channel;

[0093] Unmber: The average number of times each program is ordered by the channel in one day.

[0094] One point to be explained here is that because this A3 table is mainly for the uniform calculation of the average value for each program of a channel, there is no need to add the field for distinguishing programs.

[0095] Specific detailed steps,...

Abstract

The invention provides a program recording control method and system, and a management and popularity statistic server, and is applied to the field of communication. The program recording control method comprises the following steps: a management server, before a cache time of a program is arrived, firstly obtains popularity information of the program from a popularity statistic server; then, the management server determines the number of recording servers for recording the program according to the popularity information, and selects the corresponding number of the recording servers according to the determined number; and at last, the management server distributes a recording task for notifying to record the program to the selected recording servers. According to the program recording control method and system, and the management and popularity statistic server provided by the invention, not all recording servers record the program, but the number of the recording servers for recording the program is determined according to the popularity information of the program, namely, the on-demand playing on the program in future is predicted according to the current popularity information; therefore, while the program can be guaranteed to be played on demand by a user and no adverse effect is caused to experience of the user, a lot of storage spaces are saved, namely the consumption of the recording servers is reduced; the cost is reduced, and the competitiveness of the product is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a program recording control method, system, and management and popularity statistics server. Background technique [0002] In the current field of network video transmission, such as IPTV / OTT system, for the same channel, each recording server basically records, and the recorded programs are the same. Since many places require 220 channels to be recorded for 7 days, the bit rate of the current channels is gradually moving towards high-definition 4K, etc. If the average bit rate of the channel is 5M, then the space required for storing programs alone is 220*7*24*60 *60*5=666T, if we count our system as 1:1 backup storage, then the total space required to store so many programs is 1332T. At present, the largest data disk used for system storage is the 4T stat disk, so 333 such sata disks are needed, and each disk is calculated at 1,500 yuan, which means that it needs nearly 500,0...
