[0049] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the technical solutions of the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0050] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0051] The main solution of the embodiment of the present application is: applied to the mainboard of a television product, the television product also includes a port information adapter board, a plurality of ports are configured on the port information adapter board, and the mainboard and the port information adapter board are connected; receiving the port information sent by the port information adapter board, and generating a signal source form according to the port information; determining the target signal source in the signal source form according to the received signal source selection instruction, and sending the port selection instruction of the target signal source to the port information adapter board, so that the port information adapter board selects the target port from the configured multiple ports according to the port selection instruction; receiving the audio and video signals of the target port sent by the port information adapter board.

[0052] As current ultra-high-definition TV products include standard ports such as HDMI, USB and TUNER, as well as differentiated channel ports such as optical fiber / coaxial, AV, etc., to meet users' diverse signal connection needs. However, these channel ports show significant differences in quantity and specifications. Various channel ports occupy a large area in product layout, which is not conducive to the ultra-thin miniaturization of products. At the same time, with the continuous increase in TV size and the popularity of ultra-thin wall-mounted installation, users face problems such as long plug-in cables and inconvenient operation when using these channel ports to access devices, which affects the overall user experience.

[0053] It should be noted that standard ports usually refer to the essential and basic interfaces or channels that are required when TV products leave the factory. They are part of the product's functional integrity. Almost all TV products of the same type will be equipped with these ports. For example, HDMI, USB, and TUNER are all standard ports for ultra-high-definition TV products. They are essential for the basic functions of modern TVs (such as video input, data exchange, and TV signal reception). Differentiated channels refer to interfaces or channels that are additionally provided by TV products in addition to standard ports in order to meet the needs of different user groups or enhance product competitiveness. These channels may not be available to all products of the same type, but are specially designed by certain brands or models for differentiated competition. For example, optical fiber / coaxial, AV channels, etc. are classified as differentiated channels. In addition, even for the same type of ports, products of different models or different positioning may differ in quantity and specifications. For example, HDMI may be upgraded from HDMI2.0 to HDMI2.1, and USB channels may be upgraded from USB2.0 to USB3.0. These will bring differences in specifications. Some products may also provide two or three HDMI channels to meet the needs of users to connect multiple devices at the same time.

[0054] In summary, from the perspective of ultra-thin miniaturization optimization of TV products, different ports occupy a large area in the layout of TV products. From the user's perspective, TV products are getting bigger and bigger, coupled with ultra-thin wall-mounted installation, etc., it is very inconvenient to connect port devices to the patch cord, which seriously affects the user experience.

[0055] The embodiment of the present application provides a solution, which concentrates various channel ports on the port information adapter board by introducing a port information adapter board, and can dynamically generate a signal source form according to the port information fed back by the port information adapter board, so that the TV product can instantly and accurately reflect the currently available signal source options, while reducing the number of directly connected ports on the motherboard, effectively reducing the port layout space of the TV product. For TV products installed on the wall, users do not need to plug in cables behind the TV, reducing operational inconvenience, thereby solving the problems of ultra-thin miniaturization and ease of operation caused by multi-channel ports in TV products, and bringing users a better user experience.

[0056] Based on this, the embodiment of the present application provides a television control method, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart diagram of the first embodiment of the television control method of the present application.

[0057] In this embodiment, the television control method is applied to the mainboard of the television product, and the television product also includes a port information adapter board, on which a plurality of ports are configured, and the mainboard and the port information adapter board are connected; the television control method includes steps S10 to S30:

[0058] It should be noted that the television product in this embodiment includes two parts: a main board and a port information adapter board. The port information adapter board is configured with multiple ports, which are used to connect various external devices to transmit signals. The main board and the port information adapter board are connected by flexible plug-in or wire connection methods, which not only ensures the stability of the connection, but also facilitates maintenance and upgrading.

[0059] Step S10, receiving the port information sent by the port information adapter board, and generating a signal source list according to the port information;

[0060] It should be noted that the port information includes the identification information, status information and type information of the ports configured on the port information adapter board, which are actually connected to external devices and have signal transmission. In another feasible embodiment, the port information may also include the identification information, status information and type information of each port configured on the port information adapter board.

[0061] After the mainboard is powered on, it receives the port information sent from the port information adapter board in real time, and dynamically generates a signal source form based on the port information. The signal source form intuitively and clearly lists the currently available signal source options, providing users with a convenient way to view and select.

[0062] In a feasible embodiment, the port configured on the port information adapter board includes a high-definition multimedia interface, a tuner port and / or a composite port; step S10 may include step S101:

[0063] It should be noted that the type and quantity of ports configured on the port information adapter board of the TV product can be set according to the requirements of the TV manufacturer, and the configured ports can include high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI), tuner port and composite (AV) port, etc.

[0064] Step S101, when the port information includes identification information of the high-definition multimedia interface, the tuner port and / or the composite port, generating a signal source list including the high-definition multimedia interface, the tuner port and / or the composite port.

[0065] When the port information sent by the port information adapter board includes identification information of a high-definition multimedia interface, a tuner port or a composite port, the main board automatically recognizes and generates a signal source list including these ports.

[0066] In a feasible embodiment, the port configured on the port information adapter board further includes a universal serial bus port, an optical fiber port and / or a coaxial port; the television control method may further include steps S102 to S103:

[0067] It should be noted that the type and quantity of ports configured on the port information adapter board of the TV product can be set according to the requirements of the TV manufacturer, and the configured ports can also include universal serial bus (USB) ports, optical fiber ports and / or coaxial ports, etc.

[0068] Step S102, when the port information includes the identification information of the universal serial bus port, obtaining a file of the universal serial bus port, and adding the file to a multimedia storage database;

[0069] When the identification information of the universal serial bus port is detected in the port information, files are automatically obtained from the USB port and safely added to the multimedia storage database, providing users with a convenient file management and playback experience, so that multimedia content stored in the USB device can be easily displayed on the TV.

[0070] Step S103: when the port information includes identification information of the optical fiber port or the coaxial port, output the audio signal to an audio output device through the optical fiber port or the coaxial port.

[0071] It should be noted that the optical fiber port and coaxial port of TV products are ports for outputting audio signals. These ports enable TV products to be connected to various audio output devices (such as home theater systems, digital amplifiers, etc.) to achieve high-quality audio transmission.

[0072] For the special cases of optical fiber ports and coaxial ports, when the port information includes the identification information of the optical fiber port or coaxial port, the audio signal is output to the audio output device through the optical fiber port or coaxial port, ensuring that the TV product can support high-level audio transmission.

[0073] For example, in a feasible embodiment, the television product structure is as follows: Figure 2As shown, the TV product includes a main board and a port information adapter board. The main board and the port information adapter board are each configured with an ultra-high-definition interface and can be connected by plug-in or wire connection. After the connection, audio and video signals, control communication signals and power supply signals can be transmitted between the main board and the port information adapter board. The main board includes a TV SOC (Television System on Chip) and a power supply module. The TV SOC will automatically generate a signal source form according to the port information received from the port information adapter board. The port information adapter board includes an interface signal processing module and multiple ports, including HDMI, USB, TUNER, optical fiber / coaxial, AV, etc. Among them, HDMI is a high-definition multimedia interface that can transmit uncompressed high-definition video and audio signals. USB is used to connect external storage devices (such as U disk, mobile hard disk), TUNER is used to receive radio frequency signals from antennas or cable TV networks, TUNER is connected to the RF head (Radio Frequency Head), the RF head is responsible for receiving radio frequency signals from antennas or cable TV networks, AV transmits analog video and audio signals through composite video signal lines (usually yellow, white and red lines), and can provide direct video and audio input, optical fiber / coaxial is mainly used for the transmission of audio signals, especially high-fidelity audio.

[0074] Compared to Figure 3 In the structure of the traditional TV product shown in the figure, the ports, power supply module and TVSOC of the traditional TV product are integrated together. From the perspective of ultra-thin miniaturization, different ports occupy a large area on the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) layout. From the perspective of user use, TVs are getting bigger and bigger, and with ultra-thin wall installation, it is very inconvenient to connect the port device to the patch cord. In this embodiment, the mainboard and port part of the TV product are separated, and the port information adapter board is adapted to the HDMI channel, USB channel, TUNER channel, etc. of the TV, and an ultra-high-definition interface is configured. The mainboard and the port information adapter board are connected through the ultra-high-definition interface, which can effectively solve the problems of ultra-thin miniaturization and convenient operation caused by multi-channel ports in TV products, and bring better user experience.

[0075] Step S20, determining a target signal source in the signal source table according to the received signal source selection instruction, and sending a port selection instruction of the target signal source to the port information adapter board, so that the port information adapter board selects a target port from a plurality of configured ports according to the port selection instruction;

[0076] It should be noted that the signal source selection instruction is an instruction generated by the user selecting the desired signal source through a remote control, voice control or other interactive methods according to the information in the signal source list.

[0077] After receiving the user's signal source selection instruction, the host immediately locates and determines the target signal source in the signal source form, and sends a port selection instruction to the port information adapter board, clearly instructing the port information adapter board to accurately select the target port corresponding to the target signal source from the configured multiple ports.

[0078] In a feasible embodiment, the television product further includes a display screen, and the mainboard is connected to the display screen; step S20 may include steps S201 to S202:

[0079] Step S201, after receiving a signal source list display instruction, displaying a signal source selection interface corresponding to the signal source list through the display screen;

[0080] When receiving a signal source form display instruction from the user or triggered by the system, the motherboard is activated and executes the relevant commands, automatically loading and presenting a clear and easy-to-understand signal source selection interface through the display connected to the motherboard. The interface lists all available signal source options, such as HDMI, AV, cable TV, etc., for users to choose from.

[0081] Step S202: determining a target signal source in the signal source list according to a signal source selection instruction received in the signal source selection interface.

[0082] After the signal source selection interface is successfully displayed, the user browses and selects the signal source he needs through the remote control, touch screen or other interactive methods. When the user makes a selection on the interface and triggers the signal source selection command (such as clicking, pressing, etc.), the mainboard accurately finds the corresponding target signal source in the pre-stored signal source list according to the user's selection, and executes the signal source switching operation to switch the input source of the TV product to the target signal source selected by the user, thereby completing the entire signal source selection process.

[0083] Step S30, receiving the audio and video signals of the target port sent by the port information adapter board.

[0084] After receiving the port selection command, the port information adapter board responds quickly and receives the audio and video signals from the selected target port. The main board receives the audio and video signals from the target port sent by the port information adapter board. Subsequently, the audio and video signals received by the main board are processed by the display and audio system of the TV product and presented to the user.

[0085] For example, in a feasible implementation manner, the startup and communication process between the TV main board and the port information adapter board is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, ensure that the TV can correctly identify and switch different signal sources. Among them, the mainboard system initialization refers to the mainboard of the TV product starting up, performing self-test and loading basic programs such as the operating system; then, the mainboard powers on the port information adapter board, and the port information adapter board performs system initialization after powering on, including hardware detection and software loading; then, the mainboard and the port information adapter board establish a stable connection and prepare for data communication. After the communication relationship is established, the port information adapter board sends port information to the mainboard, and the mainboard receives the port information from the port information adapter board to generate a signal source form and a signal source user interface, allowing users to select and switch different signal sources in the interface.

[0086] In summary, the embodiment of the present application introduces a port information adapter board to concentrate various channel ports on the port information adapter board, and can dynamically generate a signal source form based on the port information fed back by the port information adapter board, so that the TV product can instantly and accurately reflect the currently available signal source options. At the same time, it reduces the number of directly connected ports on the motherboard, effectively reducing the port layout space of the TV product. For TV products installed on the wall, users do not need to plug in the cables behind the TV, reducing operational inconveniences, thereby solving the problems of ultra-thin miniaturization and ease of operation caused by multi-channel ports in TV products, and bringing users a better user experience.

[0087] Based on the first embodiment of the present application, in the second embodiment of the present application, the same or similar contents as those in the above-mentioned embodiment 1 can be referred to the above introduction and will not be repeated later.

[0088] In this embodiment, the television control method is applied to a port information adapter board of a television product, the television product further comprising a mainboard, a plurality of ports being configured on the port information adapter board, and the mainboard and the port information adapter board being connected; the television control method comprises steps A10 to A30:

[0089] It should be noted that the port information adapter board can be used as an independent device. The same TV product host can replace the connected port information adapter board according to the actual application scenario, and the same port information adapter board can also replace the connected host.

[0090] Step A10, sending port information to the host, so that the host generates a signal source list according to the port information;

[0091] The port information adapter board sends its currently configured port information to the host in the TV product, so that the host can generate a signal source list according to the port information, so that the user can quickly select and switch the signal source in subsequent operations.

[0092] In a feasible embodiment, before step A10, steps A40 to A50 may also be included:

[0093] Step A40, identifying the signal status of each of the configured multiple ports, wherein the signal status is a signal connected state or a signal disconnected state;

[0094] After the port information adapter board is powered on, it starts its built-in monitoring mechanism and checks each configured port one by one. The purpose of the check is to determine the signal status of each port, that is, to determine whether an external device has been connected to the port and transmitting signals. The signal status is clearly divided into two types: signal access status and signal non-access status. Through this identification process, it is possible to clearly understand which ports in the port information adapter board currently have signal access and which do not.

[0095] Step A50, obtaining identification information of a port whose signal state is a signal access state, and generating port information according to the identification information.

[0096] The port information adapter board further processes and generates the final port information based on the signal status results of each identified port, and obtains the identification information of the port whose signal status is the signal access status. These identification information usually include unique identifiers such as the port type (such as HDMI, USB, etc.), number or location. After obtaining these key information, the port information adapter board will send the port information to the host for subsequent processing in a predetermined format or protocol.

[0097] Step A20, receiving a port selection instruction of a target signal source sent by the mainboard, and selecting a target port from a plurality of configured ports according to the port selection instruction, wherein the target signal source is a signal source determined by the mainboard in the signal source table according to the received signal source selection instruction;

[0098] When the user completes the signal source selection on the TV product operation interface, the motherboard will determine the target signal source in the previously generated signal source form according to the user's selection instruction. Then, the motherboard will send a port selection instruction containing the port information corresponding to the target signal source to the port information adapter board.

[0099] After receiving the port selection instruction of the target signal source sent by the main board, the port information adapter board immediately parses the instruction content, and accurately identifies and selects the target port that matches the target signal source from the multiple ports configured therein.

[0100] Step A30, sending the audio and video signals of the target port to the mainboard.

[0101] The port information adapter board receives the signal transmitted from the external device from the selected target port, processes the signal and then forwards it to the main board.

[0102] In a feasible embodiment, the port information adapter board includes a port information processing module, and step A30 may include steps A301 to A302:

[0103] Step A301, decoding the port signal transmitted by the target port through the port information processing module to obtain an audio and video signal in a standard format;

[0104] After selecting the target port and receiving the original port signal from the port, the port information processing module in the port information adapter board decodes the port signal to obtain an audio and video signal in a standard format.

[0105] It should be noted that the port information processing module uses built-in decoding algorithms and logic to perform detailed decoding processing on the received port signals. The purpose of decoding is to parse and restore various complex elements such as encoding, compression or format conversion that may exist in the original signal, so as to obtain an audio and video signal that meets industry standards and is easy to process.

[0106] Step A302, sending the audio and video signals to the main board.

[0107] After decoding by the port information processing module, the standard format audio and video signals will be further sent to the main board. As the core control unit of the TV product, the main board is responsible for receiving and processing these signals in order to convert them into visual and auditory effects that can be presented on the display screen.

[0108] For example, in a feasible implementation manner, the switching process of the signal source is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, it ensures that users can select and watch different signal sources according to their needs. Among them, waiting for interactive instructions means that the TV product is in standby mode, waiting for the user to operate. When the user chooses to enter the signal source selection interface through the remote control or other input device, the TV mainboard responds to the user's interactive instructions, displays the signal source selection interface, and displays all available signal source options; then, the user operates in the interface and selects the signal source to be switched to. Subsequently, the user is asked whether he is sure to exit the current signal source selection interface. If the user chooses not to exit, the mainboard confirms again whether the user is sure to select a specific signal source channel. Once the user confirms, the mainboard sends an instruction to the port information adapter board to specify the signal source to be switched to. The port information adapter board switches to the corresponding signal source channel according to the user's choice. Finally, the mainboard receives the audio and video signals sent by the port information adapter board and displays them. At this time, the user can watch the selected signal source content.

[0109] For example, to facilitate understanding of the TV control method in the above embodiment, it is assumed that there are two TV products, both of which are configured with the same SOC chip, but due to differences in structure, memory configuration, ID shape, etc., they need to be positioned as products of different gradients. Among them, TV product A needs to have 2 HDMI interfaces, 1 USB 2.0 interface, 1 USB 3.0 interface, 1 TUNER interface and 1 AV interface; the other TV product B needs 3 HDMI interfaces, 1 USB 2.0 interface, 1 USB 3.0 interface, 1 TUNER interface, 1 AV interface and 1 optical fiber interface. According to the traditional method, it is usually necessary to design two different motherboards, but in this embodiment, the motherboard can be designed as a universal one. Since the motherboard does not need to be configured with multiple ports, the PCB layout can be further simplified, so that multiple project series can share the same motherboard, while increasing production and directly reducing the motherboard cost. Especially when the motherboard SOC requires a multi-layer board design, the reduction in area has a particularly significant impact on cost.
