Live broadcast, time shift and replay function monitoring method and device

Abstract

The invention provides a live broadcast, time shift and replay function monitoring method and device, and the method comprises the steps sending the request information to a signal source for a to-be-monitored channel which needs to monitor the live broadcast, time shift and replay functions, the request information being used for obtaining the play address of the to-be-monitored channel; judgingwhether the playing address is obtained or not; if the playing address is not obtained, sending out the first alarm information indicating that the live broadcast function, the time shift function andthe replay function of the channel to be monitored are abnormal; if the playing address is acquired, downloading a transmission stream fragment from the signal source by utilizing the playing address; and when the channel to be monitored is not successfully downloaded to the transport stream segment from the signal source, sending out the second alarm information indicating that the live broadcast, time shift and replay functions of the channel to be monitored are abnormal. According to the scheme, the cost for monitoring the live broadcast, time shift and replay functions can be reduced.
