Problems solved by technology

Enabling or disabling the wifi wireless network card requires a certain response time. If the operation response of the network card has not been completed, and the operation is enabled or disabled immediately, the system may be stuck and crashed.
The conventional method is to block and wait for a response when switching, that is, the user cannot operate and switch immediately during an operation during the switching process, and cannot continuously respond to the user's UI (user interface) operation

Embodiment 1

[0019] When the user switches from a wired network to a WIFI wireless network.

[0020] The implementation steps of the inventive method are as follows:

[0021] (1) Receive user input to select the network as WIFI, and save the network status WIFI.

[0022] (2) Change the UI to display that the current network is WIFI, prompting that WIFI is being enabled.

[0023] (3) Judging that the current state is wifi_disabled, start switching the network to wifi, that is, the state machine calls the lower layer network interface function to start switching the network to the wifi network, and starts a timer to poll the current network state.

[0024] (4) When the current network status is found to be wifi_enabled, the UI displays that WIFI is enabled, and the timer is turned off.

Embodiment 2

[0026] When the user switches from the wired network to the WIFI wireless network, the user continues to switch back to the wired network when the bottom layer switch has not been completed.

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of smart TVs, discloses a network switching system and method applied to a smart TV, and aims to respond to UI (User Interface) operations of a user continuously, prevent an underlying network card switching process from being interrupted, and improve the user experience. The network switching system applied to the smart TV is characterized in that a state machine provided with a timer is arranged in the smart TV; the state machine is used for feeding back a state of a wired network card or a wireless network card, and input selection of a current user is saved by an internal state bit; when the user selectively switches between the wired network card and the wireless network card, the internal state bit of the state machine is changed along with the change of user input; and after the state bit is changed, the state machine make corresponding responses to the user input according to different states fed back currently, and UI display is changed. The network switching system and method are suitable for to the smart TV in which a plurality of continuous UI operations occur in a use process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to smart TVs, in particular to a network switching system and method for smart TVs. Background technique [0002] The ability to connect to the Internet in modern smart TVs is already an important functional component. When both the wired network and the wireless network are provided on the smart TV, the user needs to choose to switch between the wired and wireless network to connect to the network when setting the network. The switching process is actually a process of enabling the wired network card and disabling the wireless network card at the bottom layer, or enabling the wireless network card and disabling the wired network card. Enabling or disabling the wifi wireless network card requires a certain response time. If the operation response of the network card has not been completed, and the operation is enabled or disabled immediately, the system may be stuck and crashed. The conventional method is to block and wait for a...
