Automatic feedback for proper placement of Wi-Fi connected set top box

Embodiments include an automatic set top box placement (STB) process and system that balances video playback needs against the performance characteristics of individual devices and the communications system. For video playback, this involves maintaining required sustained data rates needed to support video of various levels of quality and resolution and matching these against the capacity of the Wi-Fi system in terms of channel capacity and gateway / Access Point to STB connection quality. An intelligent network controller calculates the STB total airtime. Each STB is associated with a Service Set Identifier (SSID) that the controller uses to identify the STB clients. The controller calculates the End-to-End PHY rates for each client. The total STB airtime can then be calculated and compared to the default allocation for the STBs. Recommendations regarding moving STBs, gateways, and or satellite / booster devices can then be provided to the user.

A method for managing the EPG memory of a set-top box

This invention discloses a set-top box EPG memory management method. A memory threshold is set based on the remaining system memory capacity after the set-top box starts up. When a program event data is filtered, it is parsed and stored in the Electronic Program Guide (EPG) linked list. The memory occupied by this program event data is calculated and added to the total EPG memory value. For each subsequent filtered program event data, the memory required for storage is calculated. If the memory threshold is exceeded, the EPG data already stored in memory is first cleared, and then the received program event information is stored in the EPG linked list. If the memory threshold is not exceeded, the filtered program event information is directly stored in the EPG linked list. The memory occupied by the new program event is added to the total EPG memory value. This invention ensures maximum EPG reception within the system's available memory range, presenting the user with a more complete electronic program guide.
