Method and system for delivering message to set-top box

Abstract

The present invention provides a method and system for delivering a message to a set-top box, comprising: sending a main message to a set-top box corresponding to an object identification code through a one-way message platform based on one-way transmission; When the message identification code is the target message identification code, it sends an auxiliary message acquisition request to the two-way message platform that can send and receive messages; the two-way message platform receives the auxiliary message acquisition request, and feeds back the auxiliary message to the set-top box; Messages are consolidated into rich text messages for display on televisions. Through the present invention, in addition to passively receiving the main message from the one-way message platform, the set-top box can also actively acquire auxiliary messages from the two-way message platform based on the main message, which not only ensures that the set-top box can exchange information with the external message platform, but also avoids A situation where data overload occurs on a single channel occurs.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of set-top boxes, and in particular, to a method and system for delivering messages to set-top boxes. Background technique [0002] Digital video conversion box (Set Top Box) referred to as STB, usually called a set-top box or a set-top box, is a device that connects a TV with an external signal source. It converts compressed digital signals into TV content and displays it on the TV. [0003] At present, the set-top box generally establishes a one-way information transmission channel with the external signal source. In this way, the set-top box can only passively receive the message from the external signal source and display it to the user through the TV, but cannot actively request the message from the external signal source, resulting in the inability to Exchange information with external signal sources; or directly establish a two-way information transmission channel with external signal sources...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, set-top boxes generally establish a one-way information transmission channel with external signal sources. In this way, set-top boxes can only passively receive messages from external signal sources and display them to users through TV, but cannot actively request messages from external signal sources. Interact information with external signal sources; or directly establish a two-way information transmission channel with external signal sources for information exchange with external signal sources. Obtaining information is carried out through a two-way information transmission channel, which makes the data transmission burden of the two-way information transmission channel relatively large, and cannot deliver targeted information
