Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of display devices, and in particular to a display device and a setting method for setting items. Background Art

[0002] Display devices are intelligent devices that can present user interfaces and support user interaction. Taking smart TVs as an example, smart TVs can realize two-way human-computer interaction functions, integrating multiple functions such as audio and video, entertainment, and data to meet the diverse and personalized needs of users. Smart TVs can not only provide rich and diverse audio-visual content, but also enhance the user's interactive experience by continuously optimizing the user interface (UI) design.

[0003] In order to further enhance the user experience, smart TVs can also introduce quick settings functions, which aim to allow users to quickly adjust the smart TV to the most comfortable viewing state or perform common operations through the quick settings menu displayed on the interface. The existing quick settings menu is displayed in two main ways: one is intelligent recommendation based on the user's historical usage records, automatically placing the user's recently used settings in a prominent position to facilitate users to quickly retrieve; the other is to allow users to customize the display mode, that is, users can add commonly used settings to the quick settings menu according to their preferences to achieve personalized settings.

[0004] However, the current display content of the quick setting menu often focuses on the setting items of basic functions, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, etc., while there is a lack of sufficient support and display for the setting items of unique functions in specific scenarios, such as the channel setting items of different input channels (such as HDMI, AV, etc.). In other words, the current user interface has the problem of unbalanced menu settings. In this way, due to the uneven distribution of setting items, when users perform some operations, such as setting channel setting items, they need to search level by level, that is, they need to enter a multi-level menu, which makes the operation cumbersome and affects the user experience.

For example, the display 260 can be used to display video content, image content, and components of a menu control interface and a user control UI interface.

[0121] In some embodiments, the communication device 220 is a component for communicating with an external device or server 400 according to various communication protocol types. The display device 200 may be provided with a plurality of communication devices 220 according to different supported communication modes. For example, when the display device 200 supports wireless network communication, the display device 200 may be provided with a communication device 220 including a WiFi function. When the display device 200 supports Bluetooth connection communication, the display device 200 needs to be provided with a communication device 220 including a Bluetooth function.

[0122] The communication device 220 can enable the display device 200 to communicate with the external device or server 400 by wireless or wired connection. Among them, the wired connection can connect the display device 200 with the external device through components such as data cables and interfaces. The wireless connection can connect the display device 200 with the external device through wireless signals or wireless networks. The display device 200 can establish a connection relationship with the external device directly, or indirectly establish a connection relationship through a gateway, a router, a connection device, etc.

[0123] In some embodiments, the controller 250 may include at least one of a central processing unit, a video processor, an audio processor, a graphics processor, and a power processor, and a first interface to an nth interface for input / output. The controller 250 controls the operation of the display device and responds to the user's operation through various software control programs stored in the memory. The controller 250 controls the overall operation of the display device 200.

[0124] In some embodiments, the controller 250 and the tuner-demodulator 210 may be located in different separate devices, that is, the tuner-demodulator 210 may also be located in an external device of the main device where the controller 250 is located, such as an external set-top box.

[0125] In some embodiments, the user may input a user command through a graphical user interface (GUI) displayed on the display 260 , and the user input interface receives the user input command through the graphical user interface (GUI).

[0126] In some embodiments, the audio output device 270 may be a local speaker of the display device 200, or may be an external audio output device of the display device 200. In particular, for the external audio output device of the display device 200, the display device 200 may also be provided with an external audio output terminal, and the audio output device may be connected to the display device 200 through the external audio output terminal to output the sound of the display device 200.

[0127] In some embodiments, the user input interface 280 may be used to receive instructions from a user.

[0128] In order to perform user interaction, in some embodiments, the display device 200 may run an operating system. The operating system is a computer program for managing and controlling hardware resources and software resources in the display device 200. The operating system can control the display device to provide a user interface, for example, the operating system can directly control the display device to provide a user interface, or can provide a user interface by running an application program. The operating system also allows the user to interact with the display device 200.

[0129] It should be noted that the operating system may be a native operating system based on a specific operating platform, or a third-party operating system deeply customized based on a specific operating platform, or an independent operating system specially developed for the display device.

[0130] The operating system can be divided into different modules or layers according to the functions implemented, such as Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the system is divided into four layers, from top to bottom, namely, the application layer (Applications layer for short), the middleware layer, and the hardware layer.

[0131] In some embodiments, the application layer is used to provide services and interfaces for applications so that the display device 200 can run applications and interact with users based on the applications. At least one application can be run in the application layer, and these applications can be window programs, system settings programs, clock programs, etc. that come with the operating system; they can also be applications developed by third-party developers. In specific implementations, the application packages in the application layer are not limited to the above examples.

[0132] The framework layer provides application programming interfaces (APIs) and programming frameworks for applications. The application framework layer includes some predefined functions. The application framework layer is equivalent to a processing center that determines the actions that applications in the application layer take. Through the API interface, applications can access system resources and obtain system services during execution.

[0133] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 Some embodiments of the present application provide Figure 1 Schematic diagram of software configuration in the display device. In some embodiments, the system of the display device 200 can be divided into three layers, namely, application layer, middleware layer and hardware layer from top to bottom.

[0134] The application layer mainly includes commonly used applications on TV and application frameworks. Common applications are mainly applications developed based on browsers, such as HTML5 APPs and native APPs.

[0135] The Application Framework is a complete program model that has all the basic functions required by standard application software, such as file access, data exchange, etc., as well as the user interfaces of these functions (toolbars, status bars, menus, dialog boxes).

[0136] Native apps can support online or offline, message push or local resource access.

[0137] The middleware layer includes various TV protocols, multimedia protocols, system components and other middleware. The middleware can use the basic services (functions) provided by the system software to connect various parts of the application system or different applications on the network, and can achieve the purpose of resource sharing and function sharing.

[0138] The hardware layer mainly includes the hardware abstraction layer (HAL) interface, hardware and drivers. The HAL interface is a unified interface for all TV chips to connect, and the specific logic is implemented by each chip. Drivers mainly include: audio driver, display driver, Bluetooth driver, camera driver, WIFI driver, USB driver, HDMI driver, sensor driver (such as fingerprint sensor, temperature sensor, pressure sensor, etc.), and power driver.

[0139] It should be noted that the above example is only a simple division of the operating system functions and does not constitute a limitation on the specific operating system form of the display device 200 in the embodiment of the present application. Depending on factors such as the function of the display device and the type of operating system, the number of levels and specific level types contained in the operating system may be expressed in other forms.

[0140] The display device 200 can present a user interface and support user interaction. Taking a smart TV as an example, a smart TV can realize a two-way human-computer interaction function, integrating multiple functions such as audio and video, entertainment, and data to meet the diverse and personalized needs of users. Smart TVs can not only provide rich and diverse audio-visual content, but also enhance the user's interactive experience by continuously optimizing the user interface (UI) design.

[0141] In order to further enhance the user experience, smart TVs may also introduce quick settings functions, such as a quick settings menu, which allows users to quickly adjust the smart TV to the most comfortable viewing state or perform common operations through the quick settings menu displayed on the user interface.

[0142] In some embodiments, the existing quick setting menu display mode mainly includes two forms. One is intelligent recommendation based on the user's historical usage record, which automatically places the setting items that the user has recently used in a prominent position to facilitate the user to quickly find them. The setting items are the function options that can be set in the display device 200. For example, they can include volume, sound mode, image mode, image quality, picture ratio, etc. The user can set these function options according to their own needs. The other is to allow the user to customize the display mode, that is, the user can add commonly used setting items to the quick setting menu according to his or her preferences to achieve personalized settings.

[0143] However, the current display content of the quick setting menu often focuses on the setting items of basic functions, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, Bluetooth settings, etc., while for the setting items of special functions in specific scenarios, there is a lack of sufficient support and display. In some embodiments, the specific scene can be a scene for different input channels, and the input channel is the source of the signal received by the smart TV. Different input channels can correspond to different signal types and device connection methods. In this way, the setting items of special functions in a specific scene can be different channel setting items corresponding to different input channels. For example, the input channel can be LiveTV, High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) or Audio Video (AV), etc. Among them, LiveTV is a TV signal received by cable TV, satellite TV or terrestrial digital TV, and users can watch real-time TV programs through this input source. HDMI can be used to connect various devices (such as game consoles, Blu-ray players, computers, etc.) to the TV, allowing the transmission of high-definition video and audio signals. AV can be used to connect DVD players, cameras and other devices. At present, the quick setting function of smart TV lacks support and display functions for the channel setting items in the above-mentioned specific scenes.

[0144] In other words, the current user interface has the problem of unbalanced menu settings. Thus, due to the uneven distribution of setting items, when users perform some operations, such as setting channel setting items, they need to search level by level, that is, they need to enter a multi-level menu, which makes the operation cumbersome and affects the user experience.

[0145] In order to solve the problem of uneven menu settings in the user interface, some embodiments of the present application provide a display device 200, wherein the display device 200 includes a display 260 and a controller 250 coupled to the display 260. The display 260 is configured to display the user interface, and the controller 250 enables the display device 200 to execute a setting method for a setting item by running a specific computer execution instruction.

[0146] In order to facilitate the understanding of the technical solutions in some embodiments of the present application, each step is described in detail below in conjunction with some specific embodiments and drawings. Figure 4 A flow chart of a method for setting a setting item for a display device according to some embodiments of the present application is provided, such as Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, when the display device 200 executes the setting method of the setting item, the following steps S1-S4 may be included, and the specific contents are as follows:

[0147] Step S1: In response to a control instruction to open a first application, open an application page corresponding to the first application, wherein the first application includes a first identifier and a second identifier; determine a first application setting item corresponding to the first application based on the second identifier; the first identifier is used to represent the running status of the application; and the second identifier is used to represent associated information of the application.

[0148] In some embodiments, the display device 200 can access input channels of different channel types. Figure 5 A schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device is connected to an input channel provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 5 As shown, the input channel can be LiveTV, HDMI, etc.

[0149] In some embodiments, Digital Television (DTV) includes traditional TV channels, while LiveTV may include traditional TV channels and network channels, which covers a wider range. Figure 5 , the display device 200 can display setting items matching LiveTV below the user interface. Among them, the system setting menu All Settings can be the function entry for all basic function setting items, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, etc., and other setting items except All Settings are setting items corresponding to LiveTV. For example, the channel search setting item Channel Search, the edit channel list setting item Edit Channel List, the subtitle setting item Subtitle, the audio language setting item Audio Language, etc. Among them, the Channel Search setting item can be used to perform the channel search function, Edit Channel List can be used to edit the channel list, Subtitle can be used to set subtitle related information, and Audio Language can be used to set language related functions.

[0150] It can be understood that the above is only an exemplary description using LiveTV as the input channel, and does not constitute a limitation to the technical solution provided in this application. The input channel can also be other input channels, such as an HDMI channel, etc., and this application does not make specific limitations.

[0151] In some embodiments, based on the above input channel, a certain application can be opened on its upper layer.

[0152] In response to a control instruction to open a first application, the display device 200 can open an application page corresponding to the first application, where the first application includes a first identifier and a second identifier, and determine a first application setting item corresponding to the first application based on the second identifier; wherein the first identifier is used to represent the running status of the application; and the second identifier is used to represent associated information of the application.

[0153] Exemplarily, the channel type of the current input channel is as follows Figure 5 As shown in the LiveTV, it can be understood that when the display device 200 is connected to the input channel, the input channel will occupy the playback resources of the display device 200. Based on the current channel type, when an application is opened, since the application will also occupy resources, such as the application can occupy playback resources, when both the input channel and the application are turned on, the display device 200 will give priority to displaying the application page corresponding to the application due to resource occupation (such as processor usage, memory consumption, etc.) and interface display configuration, and will not display the page corresponding to the current input channel.

[0154] In some embodiments, the first application has two identifiers corresponding to it. The first identifier is used to represent the running state of the application. For example, when the first identifier exists, it means that the application is running. The second identifier is used to represent the associated information of the application, such as the type of application input, whether it is a game or other type. The display device 200 can determine the application setting item corresponding to the application according to the second identifier of the application, such as Figure 6 As shown, when the first application is a game application, the display device 200 can determine the game application setting item corresponding to the game application, such as Figure 6 Therefore, when both the application and the input channel exist, the priority of the application page display will be higher than the priority of the input channel display. Once an application is started based on the current input channel, the display device 200 can open the application page corresponding to the first application and determine the first application setting item corresponding to the first application according to the second identifier. After step S1 is executed, the following step S2 can be executed.

[0155] Step S2: In response to a control instruction to open a settings menu, control the display to display a first application settings menu.

[0156] In some embodiments, in response to the control instruction to open the settings menu, the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the first application settings menu. Figure 6 The control instruction may be a remote control button, a touch screen, a voice command or a remote control instruction, etc. For example, the control instruction may be a Menu button corresponding to the remote control. When the user presses the Menu button, the display device 200 may generate a control instruction for opening the settings menu.

[0157] In some embodiments, due to factors such as resource occupation and interface display, the application is displayed on the upper layer of the current input channel. Therefore, in response to the control instruction, the display device 200 will display the application setting menu corresponding to the application, such as Figure 6 The game application setting menu shown. Wherein, the first application setting menu (such as the game application setting menu) includes a first application setting item (such as the game application setting item GameMenu), and the first application setting item is a system function setting item associated with the first application.

[0158] That is, when both the application and the input channel exist, the display device 200 will preferentially display the application's setting menu according to the control instruction to open the setting menu, and will not display the setting menu corresponding to the input channel. After step S2 is completed, the following step S3 may be executed.

[0159] Step S3: In response to a user's instruction to switch channels, switch to the second channel, determine the channel type corresponding to the second channel, and determine a first menu setting item according to the channel type; the first menu setting item is a setting item associated with the channel type.

[0160] In some embodiments, based on the current input channel, in response to a user's switching instruction to switch channels, the display device 200 can switch to a second channel based on the current input channel, determine the channel type corresponding to the second channel, and determine a first menu setting item based on the channel type, wherein the first menu setting item is a setting item associated with the channel type.

[0161] Exemplarily, still taking the current input channel as LiveTV as an example, in response to the switching instruction, the display device 200 switches to the second channel. If the channel type corresponding to the second channel is HDMI, the display device 200 can determine the setting items corresponding to HDMI. In this way, when the channel type of the input channel changes, the corresponding display device 200 will switch to the setting items matching the new input channel. After step S3 is executed, the following step S4 can be executed.

[0162] Step S4: When no input content is received on the second channel, in response to a control instruction to open a setting menu, the display is controlled to display a first setting menu, where the first setting menu includes a first menu setting item.

[0163] In some embodiments, in response to the switching of the channel type, the display device 200 switches to the second channel. The display device 200 can detect whether the input channel receives input content and execute different processes according to different situations.

[0164] Figure 7 A schematic diagram of a scenario in which a display device does not receive input content provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the input content may refer to no external device connected, no application opened based on the input channel, etc., and it is only a simple input channel. In this case, when the second channel does not receive input content, in response to the control instruction to open the setting menu, the display device 200 will control the display 260 to display the first setting menu. For example, when the channel type after switching is HDMI, the first setting menu is the menu corresponding to HDMI, and the first setting menu includes a first menu setting item. The first menu setting item will be the setting item corresponding to HDMI, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0165] That is to say, when the input channel does not receive input content, it will not only focus on the setting items of basic functions, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, etc., but also display the setting items of unique functions for specific scenarios, such as setting items under different input channels (such as HDMI, AV, etc.), etc., thereby solving the problem of unbalanced menu settings in the current user interface and improving the user experience.

[0166] In some embodiments, after switching to the second channel, the display device 200 can identify the second application corresponding to the input content when receiving input content on the second channel, and then can determine the second application setting item corresponding to the second application according to the second identifier of the second application, and in response to a control instruction to open the setting menu, control the display 260 to display a setting menu containing the second application setting item.

[0167] For example, Fig. 9 A schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device receives input content provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig. 9 As shown, in some embodiments, when the second channel receives input content, such as receiving an external gaming device, the display device 200 can identify the application and the setting items corresponding to the application. Due to factors such as resource occupation and interface display, in response to a control instruction to open a setting menu, the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the setting menu of the application, such as Fig.10 In this way, the display device 200 can automatically adjust the menus and setting items displayed in the user interface according to the type of connected device and the running application, so that the display of the menu is more flexible and convenient.

[0168] In some embodiments, when the display device 200 determines the first application setting item corresponding to the first application based on the second identifier, it can first determine the associated information of the first application based on the second identifier, the associated information at least including the application type of the first application and the application function associated with the first application, and then determine the first application setting item corresponding to the first application based on the associated information.

[0169] Exemplarily, the display device 200 can determine the first application related to it according to the second identifier, and further obtain the associated information of the first application, the associated information at least including the type of application (such as games, social media, etc.) and the functions associated with the application, and the application functions can be, for example, multiplayer online game mode, social sharing function, etc. After obtaining the associated information of the first application, the display device 200 can determine the setting items corresponding to the application according to this information. For example, if the first application is a game, its setting items may include graphics quality, sound effect options, control methods, etc. If the first application is a social media application, the setting items may include privacy settings, notification preferences, account security, etc. By identifying the associated information of the application and determining the corresponding setting items, the display device 200 can show the user the configuration options related to the application used by the user, improve the ease of use of the application, and improve the user experience.

[0170] In some embodiments, after the display device 200 controls the display to display the first setting menu, it can also monitor the change status of the channel type. When the channel type changes, it records the changed target channel type, determines the target menu setting item corresponding to the target channel type, and then controls the display 260 to display the setting menu containing the target menu setting item in the user interface.

[0171] Exemplarily, the display device 200 may monitor changes in channel types, for example, switching from a digital TV signal to an analog TV signal, or switching from an HDMI input source to a USB input source, etc. When a change in channel type is detected, the display device 200 may record the new channel type as a target channel type, and determine a target menu setting item corresponding to the target channel type.

[0172] For example, Fig.11 Schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device displays HDMI provided by some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.11 As shown, assuming that when the input channel corresponding to the content displayed on the user interface changes from LiveTV to HDMI, the display device 200 will no longer display the menu setting items corresponding to LiveTV, but will control the display 260 to display the menu setting items corresponding to HDMI in the user interface. In other words, when the input channels are different, the menu setting items corresponding to the input channels are also different, and the display device 200 can display different menu setting items according to different input channels.

[0173] In some embodiments, the system function setting items include basic setting items, which are used to adjust the system functions of the display device. The display device 200 can also execute the following process: obtain historical operation data of the basic setting items, parse the historical operation data to obtain the usage frequency of the basic setting items, and determine at least one quick setting item according to the usage frequency of the basic setting items, and then control the display 260 to display a second setting menu in the user interface, wherein the second setting menu includes at least one quick setting item.

[0174] Exemplarily, when the display device 200 obtains the historical operation data of the basic setting items, it can obtain the historical operation data of the basic setting items within a period of time through its built-in log recording system or user behavior tracking module, for example, it can include the historical operation data of the brightness adjustment setting items, volume control setting items, network connection setting items, screen mode setting items, etc., and can include the timestamp, operation type, and operation results of the user's operation on each basic setting item. By obtaining the historical operation data of the basic setting items, the display device 200 can understand the user's usage habits and preferences. After obtaining the historical operation data, the display device 200 can use a data analysis algorithm (such as a machine learning model, statistical analysis, etc.) to parse the historical operation data. By parsing the collected historical operation data, the display device 200 can calculate the usage frequency of each basic setting item. For example, if the user often adjusts the screen brightness or volume, then the usage frequency of these basic setting items will be very high. According to the usage frequency of the basic setting items, the display device 200 can determine at least one or more quick setting items from the basic setting items, and preferentially display the quick setting items in the second setting menu (such as the quick setting menu) so that the user can quickly access them.

[0175] That is to say, the display device 200 will set the basic setting items most frequently used by the user as quick setting items according to the frequency of use of the basic setting items, and place them in a prominent position, which can reduce the user's search and selection time and improve the user's operating efficiency.

[0176] Fig.12 A schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device displays a first setting menu and a second setting menu in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.12 As shown, in some embodiments, in order to further improve the balance of menu settings in the user interface, the display device 200 can control the display 260 to display the first setting menu and the second setting menu in the user interface.

[0177] In some embodiments, still taking LiveTV as the first input channel as an example, the first setting menu may include Channel Search, Edit Channel List, Subtitle, and Audio Language, and the second setting menu may include some commonly used setting items, such as picture mode setting items, volume mode setting items, etc. By displaying the first setting menu and the second setting menu on the user interface, the display device 200 can present the menu setting function of the balanced mode to the user on the user interface, and no longer focus only on the setting items of the basic functions, thereby providing a more friendly interface for the user and solving the problem of unbalanced menu settings in the user interface.

[0178] Continue to combine Fig.12 In order to present a clearer menu setting method to the user, in some embodiments, the display device 200 can divide the menu on the user interface into three parts: the first part is the function entrance All Settings of all basic setting items; the second part is the first setting menu (that is, the setting menu corresponding to the input channel), the first setting menu includes the first menu setting items corresponding to the input channel Source, for example, when the input channel is LiveTV, the unique setting item can be the first menu setting item corresponding to LiveTV; the third part is the second setting menu, the second setting menu includes the setting items commonly used by users in the basic setting items, and the display device 200 can display the commonly used basic setting items in the second setting menu such as Quick Settings, so that the setting items displayed in the second setting menu are more in line with the user's usage habits.

[0179] It is understandable that the user's usage habits and preferences will change. If the quick setting items remain unchanged, it will be inconvenient for the user to operate in the second setting menu. Based on this, the display device 200 should dynamically adjust the quick setting items in the second setting menu in combination with the user's usage habits and preferences.

[0180] Based on this, in some embodiments, after acquiring the historical operation data of the basic setting items, the display device 200 may further acquire the operation data of the basic setting items, and re-determine at least one quick setting item according to the operation data and the historical operation data.

[0181] Exemplarily, after the display device 200 collects the user's historical operation data on the basic setting items to form quick setting items, it can also continuously monitor the user's operation data on the basic setting items. By comparing and analyzing the current operation data and the historical operation data, it can more accurately capture the changing trends of the user's usage habits, and redetermine the quick setting items based on the latest data analysis results, thereby dynamically adjusting the second setting menu on the user interface to better adapt to the user's changing usage habits and preferences, ensure that the second setting menu can be updated in a timely manner, and ensure that the content displayed in the second setting menu is synchronized with user needs.

[0182] In some embodiments, when the display device 200 performs an operation of displaying a first setting menu, it can obtain the setting quantity of the first menu setting items. When the setting quantity is less than or equal to a preset quantity, the display 260 is controlled to display the first setting menu, and is specifically configured as follows: the display is controlled to display the first setting menu containing the first menu setting items on the user interface; when the setting quantity is greater than the preset quantity, the display 260 is controlled to display the first setting menu, and is specifically configured as follows: the display 260 is controlled to display the first setting menu on the user interface, and the first setting menu contains a preset number of first menu setting items, and the preset number is any number less than or equal to the setting quantity.

[0183] Exemplarily, when the display device 200 obtains the number of settings for the first menu setting item, it can be implemented by reading the channel configuration information stored in the memory, or by querying the database or configuration file, or by querying the instruction. The preset number can be a threshold value, which can be used to characterize how many first menu setting items should be displayed in the first setting menu at most. The display device 200 can compare the number of settings for the first menu setting item obtained with the preset number. When the number of settings for the first menu setting item is less than or equal to the preset number, taking the preset number as 5 as an example, when the preset number is less than 5, the display device 200 can display all the first menu setting items in the first setting menu. In this way, the display device 200 can present all the configured first menu setting items to the user in the user interface, which is convenient for the user to view intuitively. When the number of settings for the first menu setting item is greater than 5, the display device 200 only displays 5 first menu setting items in the first setting menu. In this way, the interface can be avoided from being too crowded and the user interface can be made more concise.

[0184] By comparing the number of settings of the first menu setting items with the preset number, the display device 200 can present different display modes in combination with different usage scenarios, and dynamically adjust the display content of the user interface according to the current number of channel settings. In the case where there are fewer first menu setting items, the display device 200 can present all options to the user at a glance, and in the case where there are more first menu setting items, the user interface will not become cluttered due to too many setting items, which can improve the readability of the user interface and enhance the user experience.

[0185] In some embodiments, when the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display a preset number of first menu setting items in the first setting menu of the user interface, the first setting menu also includes a first control. Fig.13 This is a schematic diagram of the effect of the first control in the first setting menu provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.13 As shown, the first setting menu includes a first control 71. In response to an operation instruction to the first control 71, the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display all first menu setting items except a preset number of first menu setting items in the first setting menu of the user interface, so that the user can access other first menu setting items that cannot be directly displayed on the user interface because they exceed the preset number.

[0186] Exemplarily, taking the preset number as 3 and the total setting items as 4 as an example, before the display device 200 receives the operation instruction for the first control 71, 3 first menu setting items and one first control 71 are displayed in the first setting menu. For example, the first operation control may be a More control for displaying other more items. In response to the user's operation such as clicking or touching the first control 71, the display device 200 may generate an operation instruction. In response to the operation instruction, the display device 200 will switch the display mode and display another menu setting item other than the current 3 menu setting items in the first setting menu, as shown in the dotted frame part. In this way, the first control 71 can display all the menu setting items except the preset number of menu setting items. When the number of first menu setting items corresponding to the input channel is large, the first control 71 allows the display device 200 to not display all the menu setting items at once, but to present an intuitive display method to the user, which can keep the structure of the user interface clear on the one hand, and ensure the integrity of the access to the first menu setting items on the other hand.

[0187] Take LiveTV as an example, Fig.14 A schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device displays LiveTV in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.14As shown, before the input channel of the display device 200 is changed, the first menu setting items corresponding to LiveTV at least include Channel Search, Edit Channel List, Subtitle, and Audio Language. In response to the operation instruction of the More control, the first menu setting items are newly added with a text setting item Teletext, a recording list setting item Recording List, a guide setting item Guide, and a channel list setting item Channel List. That is, the display device 200 can display all the first menu setting items in the first setting menu.

[0188] Fig.15 Another schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device displays LiveTV according to some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.15 As shown, in some embodiments, the first setting menu further includes a second control 1401, which may be a Show Less control, for folding the first menu setting items exceeding a preset number, and in response to an operation instruction on the second control 1401, the display device 200 may fold the first menu setting items other than the preset number of first menu setting items in the first setting menu of the user interface. In this way, by folding the preset number of first menu setting items, the user interface returns to a clear and concise display mode, which can improve the user's sense of use.

[0189] In some embodiments, before the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the first setting menu, the controller may also obtain a channel name included in the first menu setting item, and control the display 260 to display the channel name at an associated position of the first setting menu.

[0190] For example, Fig.16 A schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device according to some embodiments of the present application displays a channel name at an associated position of a first setting menu, such as Fig.16 As shown, in order to more intuitively reflect the relevant information of the first menu setting item on the user interface, the display device 200 can first obtain the relevant information of the currently available first menu setting item through its internal data management module or external interface (such as a network, a storage device). This information may include but is not limited to the channel name. For example, it may also include the channel number, channel type (such as HDMI, AV, live broadcast, etc.), current state of the channel (whether activated, locked state), etc. After the display device 200 obtains the relevant information of the first menu setting item, it can control the display 260 to display the corresponding channel name at the associated position of the first setting menu, such as to the side or below each first menu setting item. Fig.16The display device 200 displays the channel name AAA in the associated position of the first setting menu, so that the user can clearly identify each input channel and the first menu setting item corresponding to the input channel, and can quickly locate the desired target first menu setting item according to the channel name and other related information, thereby improving the readability of the first setting menu and the convenience of the user. In addition, clear channel names and intuitive layout design also help reduce user errors and improve user experience.

[0191] In some embodiments, the display device 200 controls the display 260 to determine the use status of the basic setting item before the user interface displays the second setting menu; the use status includes an adjustable state and an unadjustable state; wherein the adjustable state can be understood as a certain basic setting item being in a usable state. For example, the setting parameters of the basic setting item can be adjusted. The unadjustable state is the opposite, a certain basic setting item is in an unusable state. For example, the setting parameters of the basic setting item cannot be adjusted. Then the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the second setting menu in the user interface, and is specifically configured as: controlling the display 260 to display the first quick setting item with an adjustable use status in the second setting menu of the user interface, and setting the display form of the first quick setting item to the first display form; controlling the display 260 to display the second quick setting item with an unadjustable use status in the second setting menu of the user interface, and setting the display form of the second quick setting item to the second display form, and setting the second quick setting item to an untriggerable state. For example, the untriggerable state can be that the system does not support the adjustment of the setting parameters of the quick setting item, such as its setting parameters are in an unusable state.

[0192] Exemplarily, before the display device 200 is ready to display the second setting menu, it can first analyze the content being displayed on the current user interface or the user's current operating environment, so that the display device 200 can adjust the usage status of its corresponding basic setting items. When the display device 200 determines the usage status of the basic setting items, it can be combined with preset rules or algorithms. The rules or algorithms can be set in combination with the operating environment, hardware, software configuration, etc. of the display device 200, and this application does not make specific limitations on this. For example, if the user is watching a high-definition movie, then the settings related to the picture quality (such as brightness, contrast) may be in an adjustable state. If only one signal source is currently available, the settings related to the signal source switching are in an unadjustable state.

[0193] After the use status is determined, the display device 200 can display the quick setting items differently according to different use statuses. Fig.17 A schematic diagram of the effect of displaying quick setting items on a display device provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.17As shown, when the display device 200 displays the second setting menu on the user interface, the first quick setting item in an adjustable state can be displayed in the second setting menu, and presented in the first display form, indicating that the first quick setting item is in an adjustable and interactive state. For example, the first display form can be a highlighted display form. When the display device 200 displays the second quick setting item in an unadjustable state in the second setting menu of the user interface, it can be presented in the second display form, indicating that the second quick setting item is in an unadjustable and uninteractive state. For example, the second display form can be Fig.17 The display device 200 displays quick setting items in a differentiated manner, which helps the user to quickly distinguish which setting items are adjustable and which are not adjustable, so that the user does not need to search for the required function in irrelevant or unavailable setting items, thereby saving time and reducing operation complexity.

[0194] In some embodiments, before the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the first setting menu in the user interface, it can also determine the usage status of the first menu setting item, and the usage status includes an adjustable state and a non-adjustable state. Then, when the display device 200 executes control of the display 260 to display the first setting menu in the user interface, it can control the display 260 to display the first menu setting item with a usage status of an adjustable state in the first setting menu of the user interface, and set the display form of the first menu setting item to the third display form; and control the display 260 not to display the second menu setting item with a usage status of a non-adjustable state in the first setting menu of the user interface.

[0195] Exemplarily, before the display device 200 is ready to display the first setting menu, it can also analyze the content currently displayed on the user interface or the user's current operating environment, so that the display device 200 can adjust the usage status of the corresponding first menu setting item. When the display device 200 determines the usage status of the first menu setting item, it can also combine the input channel related information, preset rules or algorithms. The rules or algorithms can be set in combination with the operating environment, hardware, software configuration, etc. of the display device 200, and this application does not specifically limit this. After the usage status is determined, the display device 200 can display the first menu setting item differently according to different usage states.

[0196] Fig.18 A schematic diagram of the effect of displaying a first menu setting item on a display device provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.18As shown, when the display device 200 displays the first setting menu in the user interface, it may only display the first menu setting item in an adjustable state, and present it in a third display form, indicating that the first menu setting item is in an adjustable and interactive state. The third display form may be the same as the first display form, for example, it may also be a highlighted form. For menu setting items that are in an unadjustable state, the display device 200 may not display these setting items, such as hiding menu setting items in an unadjustable state. By differentially displaying the first menu setting items, the display device 200 can ensure that the user only sees the first menu setting items that are relevant to the current situation and adjustable, and hides the unadjustable menu setting items, making the user interface more concise and clear, avoiding users from trying to modify the first menu setting items that cannot be changed, and improving the user experience.

[0197] That is to say, for non-adjustable and non-interactive basic setting items such as quick setting items, the display device 200 can gray out these basic setting items, and for non-adjustable and non-interactive first menu setting items (such as channel setting items), the display device 200 can hide these non-adjustable menu setting items to improve the user experience. It should be noted that the above is only an exemplary description. In some embodiments, the display device 200 can also hide the non-adjustable and non-interactive basic setting items. Similarly, the display device 200 can also gray out the non-adjustable and non-interactive menu setting items. This application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0198] In some embodiments, for the usage scenario of the second setting menu, each quick setting item in the second setting menu can be set. For example, when the focus moves to a specific quick setting item, if the current quick setting item can be directly set, such as mode selection, switch options, etc., the display device 200 directly performs relevant settings on the quick setting item, as illustrated below.

[0199] Fig.19 A schematic diagram of the audio mode switching effect under the second setting menu provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.19 As shown, the second setting menu may include an Audio Only mode setting item for playing only audio without loading the video screen. This mode allows the user to enjoy media content such as music, movies, and TV series only through audio without watching the video screen. In response to the operation instruction for Audio Only, the display device 200 will only play the audio without displaying the screen. For example, the screen content can be set to a black screen mode or other preset mode. When you want to restore the playback mode of the video screen, the display device 200 can call out the video screen again by pressing the confirmation button or other methods, and then resume normal playback.

[0200] Fig. 20This is a schematic diagram of the picture mode switching effect under the second setting menu provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig. 20 As shown, the second setting menu may include a picture mode setting item. In response to a confirmation instruction for the picture mode Picture Mode setting item, such as in response to a user pressing an OK button on a remote control, or a confirmation instruction on a touch screen, the display device 200 may jump to a detailed setting page corresponding to the setting item according to the current setting item. For example, in response to the confirmation instruction, the display device 200 may jump from the Picture Mode setting item to a picture mode setting page, which may provide the user with more detailed settings. When the user completes the setting, in response to a return instruction, such as a return instruction on a return button in a remote control after the user completes the setting of the setting page, or a return instruction on a touch screen, the display device 200 may return to the interface before the second setting menu is used to set the quick setting item.

[0201] In some embodiments, the display device 200 can detect the sound input mode corresponding to the sound mode setting item, and when it is detected that the sound input mode is the input mode of a sound bar device, the sound mode setting category is changed to an equalizer mode. That is, if it is detected that the current sound input mode is a sound bar, the display device 200 automatically changes the sound mode setting category to an equalizer EQ Mode mode.

[0202] For example, as a sound bar device, the sound output characteristics of the Sound Bar are different from those of ordinary speakers, and the sound quality needs to be optimized by adjusting the equalizer settings. Therefore, in order to improve the sound quality, the display device 200 can automatically change the sound mode setting category to the equalizer mode after detecting that the sound input mode is the input mode of the sound bar device. Fig.21 A schematic diagram of the sound mode switching effect under the second setting menu provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.21As shown, the second setting menu may include a sound mode Sound Mode setting item. In response to a confirmation instruction for the sound mode setting item, such as in response to the user's OK button on the remote control, or a confirmation instruction on the touch screen, the display device 200 can jump to the detailed setting page corresponding to the setting item according to the current setting item. For example, in response to the confirmation instruction, the display device 200 will jump from the Sound Mode setting item to the Sound Mode setting page, which can provide the user with more detailed settings. By adjusting the equalizer settings, the display device 200 can optimize the sound output characteristics of the Sound Bar to make the sound quality clearer and more natural to adapt to different usage scenarios. When the user completes the settings, in response to a return instruction, such as a return instruction on the return button in the remote control after the user completes the settings on the settings page, or a return instruction on the touch screen, the display device 200 will return to the interface before the second setting menu executes the settings for the quick settings item.

[0203] Fig. 22 This is a schematic diagram of the Bluetooth mode switching effect under the second setting menu provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig. 22 As shown, the second setting menu may include a Bluetooth mode setting item, and the Bluetooth mode setting item may be set to an on or off mode. In the initial state, Bluetooth may be in an off mode, and in response to switching the Bluetooth mode, the Bluetooth mode may be changed to an on mode after switching, i.e., an on mode. For example, the switching method may be an up or down direction switch key in a remote controller, and when the original mode is an off mode, the up direction key or down direction key on the remote controller may be used to switch to an on mode, and when the original mode is an on mode, the up direction key or down direction key on the remote controller may be used to switch to an off mode.

[0204] When the Bluetooth mode is turned on, in response to a confirmation instruction for a Bluetooth mode setting item, such as a user pressing an OK button on a remote control or a confirmation instruction on a touch screen, the display device 200 can jump to a device list page corresponding to the setting item according to the current setting item. Fig.23 A schematic diagram of the Bluetooth device list interface settings under the second settings menu provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.23 As shown, when Bluetooth is turned on, in response to a confirmation instruction for a Bluetooth mode setting item, the display device 200 will jump from the Bluetooth mode setting item to the Bluetooth device list interface of device management, which can illustrate paired devices and display the configuration status corresponding to each device.

[0205] When Bluetooth is off, in response to a confirmation instruction for a Bluetooth mode setting item, such as a user pressing an OK button on a remote control or a confirmation instruction on a touch screen, the display device 200 can jump to a detailed setting page corresponding to the setting item according to the current setting item. Fig.24 This is a schematic diagram of the page settings for the Bluetooth mode under the second setting menu provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.24 As shown, in the Bluetooth off state, in response to the confirmation instruction of the Bluetooth mode setting item, the display device 200 will jump from the Bluetooth mode setting item to the Bluetooth setting interface, in which the display device 200 can respond to the user's settings for Bluetooth, remote control automatic pairing, Bluetooth devices, music sharing, etc., and perform corresponding functions according to the corresponding settings. When the user completes the settings, in response to a return instruction, such as the return instruction of the user on the return button of the remote control after the settings of the setting page are completed, or the return instruction of the user on the touch screen, the display device 200 will return to the interface before the second setting menu executes the settings for the quick setting items, such as returning to Fig. 22 The interface shown.

[0206] In order to facilitate users to edit the quick setting items in the second setting menu, this application provides two editing methods, which are described below respectively.

[0207] In some embodiments, after the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the second setting menu in the user interface, in response to a selection instruction for the target setting item, it can display movement prompt information for the target setting item, wherein the target setting item is a shortcut setting item in the second setting menu; in response to a first movement instruction for the target setting item, the target setting item is moved in the target movement direction indicated by the first movement instruction according to the movement prompt information to adjust the position of the target setting item in the second setting menu.

[0208] For example, Fig.25 A schematic diagram of a scene of adjusting a target setting item in a second setting menu of a display device provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.25 As shown, the target setting item may be any quick setting item in the second setting menu, and the selection instruction may be a long press instruction. Taking the target setting item as the picture mode setting item Picture Mode as an example, in response to the long press instruction of the picture mode setting item where the focus point is located, the display device 200 may display the following Fig.25The moving prompt information for PictureMode is shown. In some embodiments, the moving prompt information may be a highlight box, an arrow pointing, or a text description, etc., to indicate the moving operation that the user can currently perform on the setting item, that is, the moving prompt information is used to convey to the user the operation that can be performed next, thereby improving the user's operating efficiency. For example, for Picture Mode, there may be prompt information for moving upward and prompt information for moving right. In response to a first moving instruction to a target setting item, such as a drag gesture, a direction key input, etc., the display device 200 adjusts the position of the target setting item along the target moving direction indicated by the first moving instruction, thereby adjusting the position of the target setting item in the second setting menu.

[0209] When adjusting the quick setting items in the second setting menu, you can pre-set the adjustment rules. Fig.25 , the target setting item selected by the current selection instruction is Picture Mode, and the current Picture Mode is in the displayed item list Displayed items. In response to the long press instruction for Picture Mode, the display device 200 can obtain the moving direction of Picture Mode. If the moving direction is upward, the adjustment rule can be that the display device 200 moves the target setting item from the displayed item to the Fig.25 In the More Items list shown, the more items may correspond to the list under the More control. In response to a save instruction for the adjustment, such as responding to an OK button on a remote controller, the display device 200 controls the display 260 to directly return to the second setting menu, and does not display the Picture Mode in the second setting menu. At the same time, the focus is switched to the Sound Mode behind the Picture Mode, such as Fig.26 shown.

[0210] In some embodiments, the combination Fig.25 , the display device 200 can switch the focus in the quick setting item, for example, the focus can be switched by the left and right keys on the remote control, and the focus can be switched from Picture Mode to Sound Mode. After the focus switch is completed, according to the movement prompt information, the display device 200 can adjust the position of the quick setting item in the second setting menu. For example, in response to a long press instruction for Sound Mode, it can be detected that the moving direction is to the left, then the display device 200 can switch Sound Mode to the left side of Picture Mode to adjust the position of the quick setting item in the second setting menu.

[0211] It can be understood that the displayed item list is the quick setting items in the second setting menu that are displayed, and the "More Items" list is the quick setting items in the second setting menu that are hidden, which can be associated with the More control. In response to the triggering event of the More control, these hidden quick setting items can be fully presented. In this way, the user can customize the display content of the second setting menu according to actual needs, which can make the second setting menu concise and meet the personalized needs of users.

[0212] Fig. 27 A schematic diagram of a scenario in which a display device provides prompt information for a quick setting item according to some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig. 27 As shown, for the second setting menu, in some embodiments, in response to the first move to the first position of the quick setting item, or when the user does not edit the quick setting item according to the previous prompt within a period of time, the display device can display a prompt message in the user interface, and the prompt message is used to prompt the user to edit the quick setting item by long pressing the OK key light, that is, to edit a single quick setting item. The prompt message can be displayed in a pop-up message, a floating window, or other forms, which is not specifically limited in this application. In this way, through the prompt message, the display device 200 can guide the user to adjust a specific quick setting item to meet the user's personalized needs.

[0213] The above is an editing method for the quick setting items in the second setting menu. In this editing method, in response to the selection instruction of the target setting item, the target setting item can be quickly edited to adjust the display or hiding state of the target setting item in the second setting menu. For example, long pressing the OK key on a certain target setting item can edit the target setting item.

[0214] In some other embodiments, the second setting menu also includes editing controls. Fig.28 Another schematic diagram of a scenario in which a display device adjusts a target setting item in a second setting menu provided in some embodiments of the present application is shown in FIG. Fig.28 As shown, in some embodiments, after the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the second setting menu in the user interface, in response to a trigger instruction for the editing control, the display device 200 can determine the target focus position corresponding to the trigger instruction, and confirm the target setting item corresponding to the target focus position, and in response to the editing instruction for the target setting item, move the target setting item in the target moving direction indicated by the editing instruction to adjust the position of the target setting item in the second setting menu.

[0215] Exemplarily, the second setting menu may include an editing control 2801. When there are many quick setting items that need to be edited, the editing function of all quick setting items can be implemented through the editing control 2801. When the user triggers the editing control 2801 on the user interface, the display device 200 can generate a trigger instruction for the editing control 2801. In response to the trigger instruction, the display device 200 can determine which position is the target focus that the user wants to operate according to the state of the current user interface, that is, determine the target focus position corresponding to the trigger instruction. After the target focus position is determined, the display device 200 can identify the quick setting item corresponding to the position. In response to the editing instruction issued by the user to the selected target setting item, the display device 200 can adjust the position of the target setting item along the target movement direction indicated by the editing instruction, thereby adjusting the position of the target setting item in the second setting menu.

[0216] Fig.29 A schematic diagram of the effect of adjusting the target setting item in the second setting menu by the display device provided in some embodiments of the present application, combined with Fig.28 and Fig.29 ,exist Fig.28 In the example, Picture Mode is in More Items and is in a hidden state. In response to the triggering of the edit control 2801, the display device 200 can obtain the moving direction of Picture Mode. If the moving direction is a downward movement as shown by the arrow, the preset adjustment rule can be that the display device 200 moves the target setting item Picture Mode from the More Items list to the Displayed items list. In response to the save instruction of the adjustment, such as responding to the OK button on the remote control, the display device 200 will control the display 260 to directly return to the second setting menu and display Picture Mode in the second setting menu, such as Fig.29 In this way, the user can customize the display content of the second setting menu according to actual needs, which can make the second setting menu concise and meet the personalized needs of the user.

[0217] Fig.30 Another schematic diagram of a scenario in which a display device provides prompt information for a quick setting item according to some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.30As shown, in some embodiments, the second setting menu also includes an editing control. Similarly, in response to the first move to the first position of the quick setting item, or when the user does not edit the quick setting item according to the previous prompt within a period of time, the display device can display a prompt message in the user interface. The prompt message is used to prompt the user to edit all quick setting items through the editing control, which is different from the aforementioned selection instruction. The selection instruction is to edit a single quick setting item. The prompt information can also be displayed in a pop-up message, a floating window or other forms, which is not specifically limited in this application. In this way, through the prompt information, the display device 200 can guide the user to adjust all quick setting items to meet the user's personalized needs.

[0218] The above is another way to edit the quick setting items in the second setting menu. In this editing mode, in response to the trigger instruction of the editing control, all quick setting items can be quickly edited to adjust the display or hiding status of multiple quick setting items in the second setting menu. By moving the quick setting item to the corresponding display item list, such as Displayed items or More Items, the quick setting item can be edited.

[0219] In some embodiments, after the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the second setting menu in the user interface, in response to a second movement instruction of the first setting item where the focus is located, when the second movement instruction indicates a first direction, the focus is moved from the first setting item to a target setting item corresponding to the second movement instruction; the first setting item is a quick setting item before the focus moves or any one of the first menu setting items; the target setting item is a quick setting item after the focus moves or any one of the first menu setting items; when the second movement instruction indicates a second direction, the first parameter corresponding to the first setting item is adjusted according to the second direction.

[0220] For example, Fig.31 A schematic diagram of a scene in which a display device adjusts a focus position according to some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.31 As shown, in some embodiments, the first setting item may be any one of the quick setting items or the first menu setting items. Taking the first setting item as HDMI Format and the second movement instruction as a horizontal movement instruction as an example, in response to the horizontal movement instruction of HDMI Format where the focus point is located, when the horizontal movement instruction indicates the right direction, the display device 200 moves the focus from HDMI Format to the corresponding target setting item on the right. Taking the target setting item as Picture Mode as an example, the display device 200 changes the focus from HDMI Format to Picture Mode.

[0221] Fig.32A schematic diagram of a scenario in which a display device adjusts setting item parameters according to some embodiments of the present application is provided, such as Fig.32 As shown, in some embodiments, the second movement instruction can be a vertical movement instruction. Taking the first setting item as Picture Mode and the second direction as the downward direction as an example, in response to the downward direction instruction of the Picture Mode where the focus is located, the display device 200 will adjust the parameters corresponding to the Picture Mode.

[0222] That is, the display device 200 can move the focus between the first setting menu and the second setting menu through the movement instruction to adjust the position of the focus. At the same time, the parameters corresponding to the quick setting items or the first menu setting items can also be adjusted according to the movement instruction.

[0223] In some embodiments, the parameters corresponding to the quick setting item or the first menu setting item, that is, the configuration data, may be pre-configured. The configuration data may include the operation path of the quick setting item or the first menu setting item, such as the interface path to open the interface where a certain setting item (quick setting item or first menu setting item) is located, and related interface information of the setting item, such as the interface name, interface content, etc. It may also include the parent-level options of the selected setting item, as well as the setting rules of the parent-level options, the setting rules of the setting item itself, etc.

[0224] In some embodiments, the configuration data of the quick setting item or the first menu setting item can be configured using a tree data structure, in which the tree is composed of nodes, and each node can be connected to other nodes to form a hierarchical relationship. The top-level node of the tree is called the root node, and each node can have any number of child nodes. In addition to the root node, each node has a parent node, and the child node can have its own child nodes, forming a branching and hierarchical structure. When setting the configuration data of the quick setting item or the first menu setting item, the configuration data of each setting item can be set according to the functional category.

[0225] Fig.33 A schematic diagram of the hierarchical structure of display device configuration data provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.33As shown, in some embodiments, the configuration data can be configured as multiple node levels using a tree data structure, and each node level can include one or more data nodes. Exemplarily, a first-level node can include an image and a sound, and the image and the sound each have their own child nodes (secondary nodes). In the secondary node, the level data (level Data) of each node includes a node name, a node list, and multiple nodes, such as secondary node 1, secondary node 2, etc. Each node in the secondary node can have its own third-level node. For the image node, the level data (level Data) of the third-level node corresponding to the corresponding secondary node 1 can also include a node name, a node list, and multiple nodes, such as third-level node 1, third-level node 2, etc. The level data (level Data) of the third-level node corresponding to the secondary node 2 of the image can also include a node name, a node list, and multiple nodes, such as third-level node 1, third-level node 2, etc. The configuration of each setting item can be configured according to actual needs, and this application does not make specific limitations.

[0226] Exemplarily, the level data of each node can be configured in the following manner. Level data (levelData) can be a mandatory parameter used to set the level data, which is the default data of the child node of the previous level. Each node can also include levelInit, which is mainly used for the initialization of the configuration data calling the underlying interface to accurately determine whether the setting options are available. The configuration of the secondary node and the tertiary node can be configured in combination with actual needs. For example, the secondary node can be each quick setting item in the second setting menu, and the tertiary node can be the setting parameters in each quick setting item, etc. This application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0227] In order to facilitate further understanding of the technical solution of the present application, the above process is summarized and explained below in combination with actual usage scenarios and timing diagrams.

[0228] Fig.34 A timing diagram of a method for setting a setting item executed by a display device provided in some embodiments of the present application, such as Fig.34 As shown, in order to solve the problem of unbalanced menu settings in the user interface, the display device 200 can be provided with a quick setting module, an application performance management module, an application control system, a local storage module, a setting service module, an input source data module, setting data and a TV setting system.

[0229] When an application exists based on the current input channel, the display device 200 will give priority to displaying the application setting menu. When no application exists, the display device 200 will display the first setting menu corresponding to the input channel. In response to the switching instruction of the input channel, the display device 200 will determine the existence status of the application based on whether the input content is received. When an application exists, the setting menu of the application and the setting items corresponding to the application are displayed first. When no application exists, the display device 200 controls the display 260 to display the menu and setting items corresponding to the input channel.

[0230] Specifically, refer to Fig.34 , for the first menu setting item (channel setting item) in the first setting menu (such as the channel setting menu), in response to the user opening the quick setting page, the quick setting module can capture the operation behavior, the application performance management module can obtain the current input source such as Source, and transmit it to the application performance management module, and the application performance management module can return the input source. If the input source is an application APP, the application control system can obtain information such as the name, return the application information, and control the display 260 to display the application setting menu and the setting items corresponding to the application. If it is not an application, the first menu setting item corresponding to the current input source can be obtained through the input source data module, and the first menu setting item can be returned to the quick setting module. Afterwards, the quick setting module can filter the first menu setting items according to the real-time status. For example, the non-adjustable ones can be hidden, and only the adjustable menu setting items are displayed in the first setting menu.

[0231] For the quick setting items in the second setting menu (such as the quick setting menu), the local storage module can obtain the basic setting items edited by the user and return the edited basic setting items to the quick setting module. The setting service module can obtain detailed information of each basic setting item and feed back the detailed information to the quick setting module. At the same time, the setting service module and the setting data module can query the information of the corresponding setting items. The quick setting module generates a basic setting item display list based on the detailed information returned by the setting service module, generates at least one quick setting item based on the frequency of use of the basic setting item, and controls the display state or hidden state of the quick setting item.

[0232] After the first menu setting item in the first setting menu and the quick setting item in the second setting menu are determined, the display device 200 can combine the first menu setting item, quick setting item and basic setting item (such as All Settings) corresponding to the input source and display them in the user interface, so that the menu settings in the user interface are richer and more balanced.

[0233] For the adjustment of the first menu setting item or the quick setting item, for the adjustment of all setting items, by triggering the editing control, the setting service module can find the corresponding setting item to be adjusted, and at the same time, the setting service module and the setting data module can find the data link corresponding to the setting item, such as configuration data, and the TV setting system can open the correct location corresponding to the setting item according to the configuration data. For the adjustment of a single setting item, you can enter the quick setting mode by selecting an instruction such as a long press instruction, and the local storage module can display different setting items through more lists and display lists. The quick setting module can be moved according to the interface prompt information. In response to a confirmation instruction, such as the OK key, the local storage will save the corresponding settings, exit the quick editing mode, and refresh the corresponding setting item list.

[0234] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the above embodiment provides a display device 200, in response to a control instruction to open a first application, the display device 200 opens an application page corresponding to the first application, the first application includes a first identifier and a second identifier; the first application setting item corresponding to the first application is determined according to the second identifier; in response to a control instruction to open a setting menu, the display is controlled to display a first application setting menu containing the first application setting item; in response to a switching instruction of a user to switch a channel, the display is switched to the second channel, the channel type corresponding to the second channel is determined, and the first menu setting item is determined according to the channel type; when the second channel does not receive input content, in response to a control instruction to open a setting menu, the display is controlled to display a first setting menu; the first setting menu includes a first menu setting item. The display device 200 can present a menu setting function of a balanced mode on a user interface, thereby solving the problem of unbalanced menu settings in the user interface. In addition, by displaying the first setting menu and the second setting menu on the user interface, the menu setting function of a balanced mode can be presented to the user on the user interface, and the setting items of the basic functions are no longer focused on, thereby providing a more friendly interface for the user and making the menu settings more balanced.

[0235] Based on the above display device 200, some embodiments of the present application further provide a method for setting a setting item, which can be applied to the display device 200 in the above embodiment. In some embodiments, the method may include the following contents:

[0236] In response to a control instruction to open a first application, an application page corresponding to the first application is opened, the first application includes a first identifier and a second identifier; a first application setting item corresponding to the first application is determined according to the second identifier; the first identifier is used to represent the running state of the application; and the second identifier is used to represent the associated information of the application;

[0237] In response to a control instruction to open a setting menu, the display is controlled to display a first application setting menu; the first application setting menu includes a first application setting item; the first application setting item is a system function setting item associated with the first application; in response to a switching instruction of a user to switch channels, the display is switched to a second channel, a channel type corresponding to the second channel is determined, and a first menu setting item is determined according to the channel type; the first menu setting item is a setting item associated with the channel type;

[0238] In the case that the second channel does not receive any input content, in response to a control instruction to open a setting menu, the display is controlled to display a first setting menu; the first setting menu includes a first menu setting item.

[0239] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the above embodiment provides a method for setting a setting item, which can present a menu setting function of a balanced mode on a user interface, thereby solving the problem of unbalanced menu settings in the user interface. In addition, by displaying the first setting menu and the second setting menu on the user interface, a menu setting function of a balanced mode can be presented to the user on the user interface, no longer focusing only on the setting items of the basic functions, thereby providing a more friendly interface for the user and making the menu settings more balanced.

[0240] In some usage scenarios, the setting of the setting menu may not be limited to the above embodiment. For example, taking the execution of the control instruction of the setting menu by the remote controller as an example, the above embodiment may be more suitable for the case where there is only one setting button in the remote controller, but some display devices 200 may have two setting buttons. For this scenario, the part of the display device 200 should also be able to execute the setting of the setting item.

[0241] Based on this, some embodiments of the present application further provide a display device 200, wherein the display device 200 includes a display 260 and a controller 250 coupled to the display 260. The display 260 is configured to display a user interface, and the controller 250 enables the display device 200 to execute a setting method of a setting item by running a specific computer execution instruction. The display device 200 can execute the following process:

[0242] In response to a control instruction to open a first application, an application page corresponding to the first application is opened, the first application includes a first identifier and a second identifier; a first application setting item corresponding to the first application is determined according to the second identifier; the first identifier is used to represent the running state of the application; and the second identifier is used to represent the associated information of the application;

[0243] In response to a first setting instruction, control the display to display a first application setting menu; the first application setting menu includes the first application setting item; the first application setting item is a system function setting item associated with the first application; and set the current focus to the first first application setting item in the first application setting menu; in response to a second setting instruction, control the display to display a system setting menu on the user interface;

[0244] In response to a switching instruction from a user to switch channels, switch to a second channel, determine a channel type corresponding to the second channel, and determine a first menu setting item according to the channel type; the first menu setting item is a setting item associated with the channel type;

[0245] In the case where the second channel does not receive any input content, in response to a third setting instruction, the display is controlled to display a first setting menu; the first setting menu includes a first menu setting item; and the current focus is set to the first first menu setting item in the first setting menu; in response to a fourth setting instruction, the display is controlled to display a system setting menu on the user interface.

[0246] From the above content, it can be seen that in response to the control instruction to open the first application, the application page corresponding to the first application is opened, which is the same as the previous embodiment. The difference from the previous embodiment is that after opening the application setting menu, the execution process and effect corresponding to its settings are different.

[0247] Take the case where there are two setting scenarios as an example, for example, the two setting scenarios can be Menu and Setting of the remote control respectively. If the first setting instruction corresponds to the Menu button, then in response to the first setting instruction, the display device 200 will display the first application setting menu and set the current focus on the first setting item in the first application setting menu. If the second setting instruction corresponds to the Setting button, then in response to the second setting instruction, the display device 200 directly presents the setting page for all basic setting items to the user, that is, displays the system setting menu. In the case where the second channel does not receive input content, taking the case where the third setting instruction corresponds to Menu as an example, in response to the third setting instruction, the display device 200 will control the display 260 to display the menu corresponding to the current input channel and the setting item corresponding to the input channel, and at the same time, set the focus on the first channel setting item. Taking the case where the fourth setting instruction corresponds to Setting as an example, in response to the fourth setting instruction, the display device 200 directly presents the setting page for all basic setting items to the user.

[0248] The above is just an example of two setting scenarios corresponding to the remote control. In actual use scenarios, it can also be voice settings or other methods, etc. This application does not make specific limitations on this. When the input channel does not receive input content, the display device 200 will not only focus on the setting items of basic functions, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, etc., but also display the setting items of unique functions for specific scenarios, such as the setting items under different input channels (such as HDMI, AV, etc.), etc., thereby solving the problem of unbalanced menu settings in the current user interface and improving the user experience.

[0249] Based on the display device 200 in the above embodiment, some embodiments of the present application further provide a method for setting a setting item, which can be applied to the display device 200 in the above embodiment. In some embodiments, the method may include the following contents:

[0250] In response to a control instruction to open a first application, an application page corresponding to the first application is opened, the first application includes a first identifier and a second identifier; a first application setting item corresponding to the first application is determined according to the second identifier; the first identifier is used to represent the running state of the application; and the second identifier is used to represent the associated information of the application;

[0251] In response to a first setting instruction, control the display to display a first application setting menu; the first application setting menu includes the first application setting item; the first application setting item is a system function setting item associated with the first application; and set the current focus to the first first application setting item in the first application setting menu; in response to a second setting instruction, control the display to display a system setting menu on the user interface;

[0252] In response to a switching instruction from a user to switch channels, switch to a second channel, determine a channel type corresponding to the second channel, and determine a first menu setting item according to the channel type; the first menu setting item is a setting item associated with the channel type;

[0253] In the case where the second channel does not receive any input content, in response to a third setting instruction, the display is controlled to display a first setting menu; the first setting menu includes a first menu setting item; and the current focus is set to the first first menu setting item in the first setting menu; in response to a fourth setting instruction, the display is controlled to display a system setting menu on the user interface.

[0254] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the above embodiment provides a method for setting setting items. When the input channel does not receive input content, the method will not only focus on the setting items of basic functions, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, etc., but also display the setting items of unique functions for specific scenarios, such as setting items under different input channels (such as HDMI, AV, etc.), etc., thereby solving the problem of unbalanced menu settings in the current user interface and improving the user experience.
