[0064] The following will be combined with the drawings in this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0065] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a control method for a consumer electronics control CEC device is provided. Although a logical order is shown in the step diagram, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be performed in an order different from that shown in the figure. Specifically, the control method for a consumer electronics control CEC device can be applied to an electronic device, wherein the electronic device may include but is not limited to one or more of a smart phone, a tablet computer, a portable computer, a desktop computer, and a car computer. The electronic device can be connected to multiple CEC devices, and each external CEC device can be operated simultaneously through the electronic device.

[0066] It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the priority order of the embodiments.

[0067] according to Figure 1 The control method of the consumer electronics control CEC device shown in the figure includes at least steps S110 to S130, which are described in detail as follows:

[0068] In step S110 , it is determined whether there is a compatibility problem among the plurality of external CEC devices.

[0069] Optionally, a feature configuration table is preset, which includes identifications of devices with compatibility issues; the identifications of each external CEC device can be obtained, and whether the identification of the external CEC device exists in the feature configuration table can be queried to determine whether each external CEC device has compatibility issues.

[0070] Optionally, when it is detected that the external CEC device has a compatibility problem, it is determined that the external CEC device has a compatibility problem.

[0071] In step S120, when the external CEC device has the compatibility problem, a compatibility solution is matched for the target external CEC device having the compatibility problem.

[0072] The compatibility solution is a solution to the compatibility problem; the compatibility solutions corresponding to various compatibility problems are preset. When it is determined that the target external CEC device has the compatibility problem, the compatibility solution corresponding to the compatibility problem is determined according to the compatibility problem of the external CEC device.

[0073] Optionally, when the compatibility issue is a newly emerged compatibility issue, a compatibility solution may be constructed for the compatibility issue.

[0074] In step S130, the target external CEC device is processed separately based on the compatibility scheme.

[0075] According to the obtained compatibility solution, the target external CEC device is processed separately, and the compatibility solution is not uniformly applied to each external CEC device, which causes new compatibility problems to occur in external CEC devices that do not have the compatibility problem.

[0076] By adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, after determining the target external CEC device with compatibility problems, the compatibility solution can be matched for the target external CEC device, and the target external CEC device can be processed separately based on the compatibility solution, thereby avoiding the related art of performing the same processing on each external CEC device in order to solve the compatibility problem, which will cause new problems for the external CEC device that originally did not have compatibility problems. Therefore, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application can quickly solve the compatibility problem of the external CEC device with compatibility problems without causing compatibility problems of other external CEC devices, thereby improving the efficiency of solving compatibility problems.

[0077] Based on the above technical solution, as an embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, before determining whether the plurality of external CEC devices have compatibility issues, the method may further include steps S140 to S150.

[0078] In step S140, when it is found that the CEC device has a compatibility problem, an identifier of the CEC device is obtained.

[0079] In step S150, the feature configuration table is generated according to the identifier of the CEC device and the compatibility issue.

[0080] Based on step S140 to step S150, a feature configuration table can be pre-constructed. During the testing and debugging of various CEC devices, if a CEC device is found to have a compatibility problem, the identifier of the CEC device can be obtained. The identifier of the CEC device and the corresponding compatibility problem are stored in the feature configuration table. When other CEC devices are subsequently found to have a compatibility problem, the newly discovered CEC device and its compatibility problem can be added to the feature configuration table.

[0081] Optionally, the compatibility issues may be classified and stored in a json data format in combination with the identification of the CEC device. The identification of the CEC device may include a CEC device manufacturer ID (Vendor ID) and / or a CEC device name (OSDname).

[0082] In one embodiment, it can be obtained as Figure 1 Feature configuration table shown.

[0083] Figure 1 .Feature configuration table

[0084]

[0085]

[0086] based on Figure 1 As can be seen from the second line, the CEC device with VendorID 240 and OSD name HW-Q990C has a compatibility issue of "AMPLIFIER_AUDIO_STATUS_NO_RESPOND", and the CEC device does not respond to CEC messages<UserControl Pressed> [Volume Up|Volume Down], the TV cannot control its volume via CEC.

[0087] In subsequent testing, debugging or application, if a new CEC device is found to have a compatibility problem in the feature configuration table, the identifier of the CEC device can be obtained, added to the feature configuration table, and the identifier of the CEC device and the compatibility problem can be stored in correspondence.

[0088] In subsequent testing, debugging or application processes, if a new compatibility issue is found in the CEC device that does not exist in the feature configuration table, the new compatibility issue can be added to the feature configuration table, and the identifier of the CEC device can be obtained, and the identifier of the CEC device can also be added to the feature configuration table and stored correspondingly with the new compatibility issue.

[0089] Optionally, as an embodiment, the compatibility solutions corresponding to the compatibility issues can be obtained, and the compatibility solutions and the compatibility issues can be stored in correspondence. Figure 1 The Remarks column in the table allows you to quickly obtain the corresponding compatibility solution when determining compatibility issues.

[0090] By adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, a feature configuration table can be generated in advance, and the feature configuration table is classified according to the compatibility problem, so that the identification of each CEC device with the compatibility can be quickly obtained. In addition, the feature configuration table supports addition and modification, so that the feature configuration table can be updated to improve the feature configuration table.

[0091] On the basis of the above technical solution, as an embodiment, the determining whether there are compatibility issues with multiple external CEC devices may include: obtaining the identifiers of the multiple external CEC devices; obtaining a feature configuration table, the feature configuration table including: the compatibility issue, and the identifier of the device with the compatibility issue; querying the feature configuration table whether there is the identifier of the external CEC device; when the identifier of the external CEC device exists in the feature configuration table, determining the compatibility issue corresponding to the identifier of the external CEC device in the feature configuration table as the compatibility issue existing in the external CEC device.

[0092] The identifiers and feature configuration tables of multiple external CEC devices can be obtained, and the feature configuration table is queried to see whether there is an identifier of the external CEC device. Because the identifier of the CEC device stored in the feature configuration table is the identifier of the CEC device with compatibility issues, when the identifier of the external CEC device is queried in the feature configuration table, it is proved that the external CEC device has a compatibility issue.

[0093] Because the feature configuration table stores the compatibility problem and the identifier of the CEC device having the compatibility problem in correspondence, the compatibility problem stored in the feature configuration table in correspondence with the identifier of the external CEC device can be determined as the compatibility problem of the external CEC device.

[0094] By adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, it is possible to determine whether the external CEC device has a compatibility problem by using the identifier of the external CEC device and the identifier of the CEC device in the feature configuration table. When the identifier of the external CEC device is in the feature configuration table, the compatibility problem of the external CEC device can also be determined based on the compatibility problem stored in the feature configuration table corresponding to the identifier of the external CEC device. In this way, it is possible to quickly and accurately determine whether the external CEC device has a compatibility problem, and what kind of compatibility problem exists.

[0095] Based on the above technical solution, as an embodiment, the acquisition of the feature configuration table may include: requesting feature configuration table data from the cloud when booting; when obtaining the feature configuration table data sent by the cloud, obtaining the version number of the feature configuration table from the feature configuration table data; checking whether the version number of the feature configuration table is updated; when the version number is not updated, determining the locally saved default feature configuration table as the feature configuration table; when the version number is updated, parsing the feature configuration table data to obtain the feature configuration table.

[0096] After the feature configuration table is generated, the feature configuration table can be deployed to the cloud. Each device can obtain the feature configuration table from the cloud. After the feature configuration table is updated, the updated feature configuration table is used to replace the feature configuration table deployed in the cloud, so that each device can obtain the latest feature configuration table from the cloud.

[0097] When the electronic device is turned on, it can send a request to the cloud to request the latest feature configuration table data. The cloud returns the latest feature configuration table data in response to the request of the electronic device. The feature configuration table data includes the feature configuration table and the version number of the feature configuration table. The first version number of the feature configuration table is obtained from the feature configuration table data.

[0098] The default feature configuration table and the second version number of the default feature configuration table are saved locally. The second version number of the default feature configuration table saved locally is obtained. By comparing whether the first version number and the second version number are consistent, it is determined whether the version number of the feature configuration table is updated.

[0099] When the first version number is inconsistent with the second version number, it proves that the version number of the feature configuration table has been updated, and the feature configuration table deployed on the cloud has also been updated relative to the default feature configuration table saved locally. In order to obtain the latest feature configuration table, the feature configuration table data sent by the cloud can be parsed to obtain the feature configuration table.

[0100] When the first version number is consistent with the second version number, it proves that the version number of the feature configuration table has not been updated, and the feature configuration table deployed on the cloud is consistent with the default feature configuration table saved locally. Therefore, the default feature configuration table saved locally can be directly determined as the feature configuration table, thereby saving resources required for parsing the feature configuration table data.

[0101] By adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the feature configuration table is deployed to the cloud. After the feature configuration table is updated, the updated feature configuration table can be sent to each electronic device through the cloud, so that each electronic device can obtain the latest feature configuration table. By comparing the first version number and the second version number, it can be determined whether the feature configuration table is updated, thereby determining whether to parse the feature configuration table data. When the version number of the feature configuration table is not updated, the default feature configuration table saved locally can be directly determined as the feature configuration table, thereby saving resources.

[0102] Based on the above technical solution, as an embodiment, after parsing the feature configuration table data to obtain the feature configuration table, the method may further include: replacing the default feature configuration table with the feature configuration table and saving it locally.

[0103] When the first version number is inconsistent with the second version number, it proves that the version number of the feature configuration table has been updated, and the feature configuration table data sent by the cloud can be parsed to obtain the latest feature configuration table.

[0104] The latest feature configuration table parsed is used as the default feature configuration table to replace the locally saved default feature configuration table, so that the locally saved default feature configuration table is the latest feature configuration table. In addition, the latest feature configuration table version number is used as the first version number of the default feature configuration table to replace the locally saved second version number.

[0105] By adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the default feature configuration table saved locally can be the latest feature configuration table, so that when the feature configuration table of this version is received from the cloud later, there is no need to parse the feature configuration table data again, but the default feature configuration table can be directly obtained from the local to save resources. In addition, if the feature configuration table data cannot be obtained from the cloud later, when the default feature configuration table saved locally is used for subsequent processing, it can be ensured that the default feature configuration table saved locally is the latest feature configuration table.

[0106] Based on the above technical solution, as an embodiment, the acquiring of the feature configuration table may include: determining a locally stored default feature configuration table as the feature configuration table.

[0107] When communication with the cloud is unavailable, the default feature configuration table stored locally may be directly determined as the feature configuration table.

[0108] When the feature configuration table does not exist in the cloud, the default feature configuration table stored locally may also be directly determined as the feature configuration table.

[0109] As a default setting, a locally saved default feature configuration table may be directly determined as the feature configuration table.

[0110] The default feature configuration table may be a feature configuration table pre-generated by a local or other electronic device, or a feature configuration table pre-acquired from the cloud.

[0111] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present application provides a solution for obtaining a feature configuration table in a variety of scenarios. When it is impossible to communicate with the cloud or the feature configuration table does not exist in the cloud, the feature configuration table can be directly obtained locally. Alternatively, as a default setting, the default feature configuration table stored locally can be directly determined as the feature configuration table.

[0112] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for controlling a consumer electronics control (CEC) device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3As shown, in step S310, the device is turned on and a feature configuration table is requested from the cloud. In step S320, it is determined whether the feature configuration table is obtained. When the feature configuration table is obtained, the process jumps to step S330, and when the feature configuration table is not obtained, the process jumps to step S380. In step S330, it is checked whether the feature configuration table is updated. Among them, it is determined whether the feature configuration table is updated by checking whether the version number of the feature configuration table is consistent with the version number of the default feature configuration table saved locally. When the feature configuration table is updated, the process jumps to step S340, and when the feature configuration table is not updated, the process jumps to step S380. In step S340, the default feature configuration table is replaced. When the feature configuration table is updated, the feature configuration table sent by the cloud is used to replace the default feature configuration table saved locally. In step S350, the identifier of the external CEC device is obtained. The identifier of the external CEC device includes the CEC device manufacturer ID and / or the CEC device name. In step S360, it is determined whether the identifier of the external CEC device is in the default feature configuration table. The default feature configuration table here includes the default feature configuration table that has been replaced with the feature configuration table sent by the cloud. When the identifier of the external CEC device is in the default feature configuration table, jump to step S370, and when the identifier of the external CEC device is not in the default feature configuration table, jump to step S390. In step S370, the compatibility problem of the CEC device is solved separately. When the identifier of the external CEC device is in the default feature configuration table, it is proved that the external CEC device has a compatibility problem. Based on the compatibility solution matching the compatibility problem, the external CEC device can be processed separately based on the compatibility solution to avoid affecting the CEC device without compatibility problems. In step S390, the default process is followed. The default process is a process that does not require solving the compatibility problem of the CEC device. In step S380, the default feature configuration table is obtained. When the feature configuration table is not obtained, or when the identifier of the external CEC device is not in the default feature configuration table, the locally saved default feature configuration table can be obtained. Based on the locally saved default feature configuration table, step S360 is executed.

[0113] By adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, after determining the target external CEC device with compatibility problems, the compatibility solution can be matched for the target external CEC device, and the target external CEC device can be processed separately based on the compatibility solution, thereby avoiding the related art of performing the same processing on each external CEC device in order to solve the compatibility problem, which will cause new problems for the external CEC device that originally did not have compatibility problems. Therefore, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application can quickly solve the compatibility problem of the external CEC device with compatibility problems without causing compatibility problems of other external CEC devices, thereby improving the efficiency of solving compatibility problems.

[0114] On the basis of the above technical solution, as an embodiment, the compatibility problem of the target external CEC device is: the volume status cannot be obtained; the separate processing of the target external CEC device based on the compatibility solution may include: based on the compatibility solution, sending the target external CEC device one more instruction information for obtaining the volume status to obtain the volume status, and obtaining the volume status sent by the target external CEC device.

[0115] When the compatibility issue is that the volume status cannot be obtained, the compatibility solution corresponding to the compatibility issue can be to send instruction information for obtaining the volume status one more time to the external CEC device with the compatibility issue, so that the external CEC device with the compatibility issue sends the volume status to the electronic device based on the instruction information, so that the electronic device can obtain the volume status of the external CEC device.

[0116] Therefore, when the compatibility problem of the target external CEC device is that the volume status cannot be obtained, a matching compatibility solution can be obtained, and the compatibility solution can be executed to send a command message for obtaining the volume status to the target external CEC device one more time to obtain the volume status sent by the target external CEC device.

[0117] For example, in the above example, for non-response<User Control Pressed> [Volume Up|VolumeDown] message device, add AMPLIFIER_AUDIO_STATUS_NO_RESPOND judgment, and check the VendorID and OSD name of the currently connected device match those in the mapping table, then send it multiple times<Give Audio Status> Message, so that such devices can report the volume value as expected without affecting other devices. If no isolation is done, no matter which device is used, it will be sent once more.<Give Audio Status> Messages will cause normally functioning devices to repeatedly report volume values, causing the CEC bus to be busy and leading to other CEC compatibility issues.

[0118] By adopting the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the code corresponding to the compatibility scheme is isolated from the public code. The code corresponding to the compatibility scheme only acts on CEC devices with compatibility issues matching the compatibility scheme, thereby avoiding sending multiple command information for obtaining the volume status to all external CEC devices at the same time, causing the CEC bus to be busy and triggering other CEC compatibility issues.

[0119] Based on the above technical solution, as an embodiment, the compatibility problem of the target external CEC device is: no audio decoding capability message is reported; based on the compatibility solution, the target external CEC device is processed separately, which may include: based on the compatibility solution, obtaining the preset audio decoding capability of the target external CEC device.

[0120] The compatibility issue of the target external CEC device is that it does not report the audio decoding capability message, which means that when the electronic device sends a report audio decoding capability message to the target external CEC device, the target external CEC device does not respond to the report audio decoding capability message, so the electronic device cannot obtain the audio decoding capability of the target external CEC device.

[0121] In view of the compatibility problem, a compatibility solution can be preset to preset the audio decoding capability of the target external CEC device. The audio decoding capability of the target external CEC device can be obtained in advance through the product specification.

[0122] In this way, when the audio decoding capability of the target external CEC device needs to be obtained, the preset audio decoding capability of the target external CEC device can be directly obtained without obtaining the audio decoding capability from the target external CEC device, thereby solving the compatibility problem of the target external CEC device. In addition, obtaining the preset audio decoding capability of the target external CEC device alone will not affect other external CEC devices that do not have the compatibility problem.
