Abstract

The present invention relates to an OTA upgrade method and system for a set-top box, which collects the frequency points with the highest user frequency among the frequency points belonging to the operator, and adds OTA upgrade data to the frequency point with the highest frequency; and detects whether the frequency point currently being watched by the user is It is the frequency point with the highest frequency. If it is, the user will be prompted to update the software, and the OTA upgrade will be performed after the user confirms; if it is not the frequency point with the highest frequency, it will be checked whether the frequency point the user is currently watching belongs to the frequency point of the operator. , if so, the user will be reminded that there is a software update. After the set-top box enters the standby state, the new software will be downloaded from the frequency point with the highest frequency to upgrade; The frequency band detects whether there is an upgrade update one by one. The present invention can ensure the success of the upgrade without interfering with the use of the user, thus greatly facilitating the user and enhancing the user experience.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of digital television, in particular to an OTA upgrade method and system for a set-top box. Background technique [0002] OTA upgrade (over-the-air download technology, over-the-air upgrade) is a commonly used upgrade technology for set-top boxes. When the software of the set-top box needs to be updated, the operator will add the new software (OTA upgrade data) to the real-time signal, and then the OTA function in the set-top box will download and upgrade the new software to the set-top box. [0003] Operators will operate channels and services on multiple frequency points. In order to save bandwidth and consider costs, operators will only add new software to one of the frequency points, and then download and upgrade software from this frequency point. However, the user is likely to be watching programs at other frequency points or even non-operator frequency points. If the upgrade is performed at this time, it will ...
