[0043] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The step numbers in the following embodiments are only provided for the convenience of explanation and description, and the order between the steps is not limited in any way. The execution order of each step in the embodiment can be adaptively adjusted according to the understanding of those skilled in the art.

[0044] It should be noted that, although the functional module division is performed in the device schematic diagram and the logical order is shown in the flow chart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be performed in a different order from the module division in the device or the order in the flow chart. The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described here can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0045] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0046] Some technical terms in this embodiment are explained below.

[0047] IPTV (Interactive Personality TV) is an interactive network television. It is based on broadband high-speed IP network, with network video resources as the main body, using televisions, personal computers and handheld devices as display terminals, and accessing broadband networks through set-top boxes or computers to achieve a new way of watching TV, including digital TV, time-shifted TV, interactive TV and other services.

[0048] APK (Android application package) is an application package file format used by the Android operating system to distribute and install mobile applications and middleware.

[0049] SDK refers to Software Development Kit, also known as development kit or development toolkit. SDK is usually a collection of one or more software development tools to help developers create, test and deploy software applications. SDK provides some basic functions and interfaces, allowing developers to quickly build applications, thereby improving development efficiency. SDK provides some ready-made tools and libraries to simplify the development process, allowing developers to focus more on the implementation of business logic. SDK usually supports multiple platforms, such as operating systems, game consoles, mobile devices, etc., allowing developers to easily develop cross-platform applications. SDK usually provides detailed documentation and examples to help developers better understand and use the SDK, reducing development difficulty and error rate. SDK provides some testing tools and debugging tools, allowing developers to better test and debug applications, thereby improving the quality of applications.

[0050] The HID protocol is a USB-based communication protocol used for data transmission between different devices. The HID protocol defines standard data formats, command structures, and transmission methods, so that input devices produced by different manufacturers can be recognized and compatible with the operating system. The implementation of the HID protocol is based on the USB interface, so HID devices are usually connected through the USB interface. In the HID protocol, the device sends a series of reports to the computer, describing the status of the device and the user's operations. The device identifies other devices based on these reports and responds accordingly to the user's operations.

[0051] PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol Over Ethernet), a point-to-point protocol on Ethernet, is a network tunneling protocol that encapsulates the point-to-point protocol (PPP) in the Ethernet framework. Since the PPP protocol is integrated into the protocol, it implements authentication, encryption, and compression functions that traditional Ethernet cannot provide. It can also be used in cable modems and digital subscriber lines (DSL) and other protocol systems that provide access services to users using Ethernet protocols. Once the two connected parties know the MAC address of the other end, the PPP session is established.

[0052] IPoE (IP over Ethernet) takes DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) technology as its core and closely combines with the common RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) to implement a broadband access authentication system that includes IP user session mechanism, IP data flow classification mechanism, IP session authentication and management mechanism.

[0053] IPoE and PPPoE (Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet) are both access authentication technologies, but they have significant differences in working principles and application scenarios. Traditional PPPoE requires the user device to install client software, has low access efficiency, and has weak support for multicast performance. In contrast, IPoE does not require the installation of client software, has higher access efficiency, and has better support for multicast performance, and is suitable for high-bandwidth access methods and diversified Internet services.

[0054] The ITV (Broadband Internet Audiovisual Service) interface is a dedicated interface for connecting to an ITV network TV set-top box. The ITV interface is mainly used to connect to the ITV network TV service. After the user has applied for this service, he can watch ITV network TV through the ITV port of the optical modem or the ITV set-top box.

[0100] The input unit 1130 can be used to receive input digital or character information, and generate keyboard, mouse, joystick, optical or trackball signal input related to user settings and function control. Specifically, the input unit 1130 may include a touch-sensitive surface 1131 and other input devices 1132. The touch-sensitive surface 1131, also known as a touch display screen or touch pad, can collect user touch operations on or near it (such as operations performed by users using fingers, styluses, or any other suitable objects or accessories on or near the touch-sensitive surface 1131), and drive corresponding connection devices according to a pre-set program. Optionally, the touch-sensitive surface 1131 may include a touch detection device and a touch controller. Among them, the touch detection device detects the user's touch orientation, detects the signal brought by the touch operation, and transmits the signal to the touch controller; the touch controller receives the touch information from the touch detection device, converts it into touch point coordinates, and then sends it to the processor 1180, and can receive and execute commands sent by the processor 1180. In addition, the touch-sensitive surface 1131 may be implemented in various types such as resistive, capacitive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave. In addition to the touch-sensitive surface 1131, the input unit 1130 may further include other input devices 1132.

As a type of motion sensor, the gravity acceleration sensor can detect the magnitude of acceleration in each direction (generally three axes), and can detect the magnitude and direction of gravity when stationary, which can be used for applications that recognize the posture of the mobile phone (such as horizontal and vertical screen switching, related games, magnetometer posture calibration), vibration recognition related functions (such as pedometer, tapping), etc.; as for other sensors that can also be configured in the device 1100, such as gyroscopes, barometers, hygrometers, thermometers, infrared sensors, etc., they will not be repeated here.

[0103] The audio circuit 1160, the speaker 1161, and the microphone 1162 can provide an audio interface between the user and the device 1100. The audio circuit 1160 can transmit the electrical signal converted from the received audio data to the speaker 1161, which is converted into a sound signal for output; on the other hand, the microphone 1162 converts the collected sound signal into an electrical signal, which is received by the audio circuit 1160 and converted into audio data, and then the audio data is processed by the output processor 1180 and sent to another control device through the RF circuit 1110, or the audio data is output to the memory 1120 for further processing. The audio circuit 1160 may also include an earphone jack to provide communication between an external headset and the device 1100.

[0104] The short-distance wireless transmission module 1170 may be a WIFI (wireless fidelity) module, a Bluetooth module, an infrared module, etc. The device 1100 may transmit information with a wireless transmission module provided on a competing device through the short-distance wireless transmission module 1170 .

[0105] The processor 1180 is the control center of the device 1100. It uses various interfaces and lines to connect various parts of the entire control device. It executes various functions of the device 1100 and processes data by running or executing software programs and / or modules stored in the memory 1120, and calling data stored in the memory 1120, so as to monitor the control device as a whole.
