Embodiment

The invention will be further described below in conjunction with drawings and Examples.

Fig. 1 shows the flow process of the preferred embodiment of the method by the computer management television set of the present invention.Seeing also Fig. 1, is the detailed description to each step of the method for present embodiment below.

Step S101: the communication interface (for example Ethernet interface) by computer (PC) and television set couples together computer and television set, realizes the data communication between computer and the television set.

Step S102: the TV management software is installed at computer terminal.

Step S103: start the TV management software on the computer.

Step S104: the operation interface by the TV management software is operated television set.

Step S105: the data message that television set receiving computer end transmits.

Step S106: the data message that television set anacom end transmits.

Step S107: television set is according to the request of data of the content response computer terminal of packet.

Mode for above-mentioned computer and the data communication between the television set mainly adopts SOCKET (socket) communication mode, as shown in Figure 2.SOCKET (socket) describes a kind of method that meets other program communications by the standard unix file.SOCKET is a kind of socket standard that is based upon on the transport layer protocol (mainly being TCP and UDP), its essence is the end points that process communication is provided, and can be regarded as a kind of special pipeline, can realize network service by SOCKET communication.It defines two standards that intercomputer communicates, if two computers utilize a passage to communicate, the two ends of this passage are exactly two sockets so, can write data and reading of data by this socket.SOCKET communication has shielded the difference of bottom communication software and specific operating system, makes any two Transmission Control Protocol software to be installed and have been realized that the communication between the computer of socket standard becomes possibility.In PC shown in Figure 2 and the SOCKET traffic model between the television set, the process of PC end and TV set terminal is at first called the socket function, creates socket, returns a socket describing word; The PC end calls the bind function, and a specific I P address is bundled on its socket, and kernel is that corresponding socket selects a transient port as source port, calls the listen function this socket is converted to a monitoring socket; TV set terminal is called the connect function and is set up and being connected that PC holds, and the PC end calls the connection request that the accept function is accepted TV set terminal; PC end and TV set terminal send data and receive data by calling send function and recv function; Close socket by calling the close function at last, stop network and connect.

The content of television set being operated by the TV management software on the computer comprises the application program of download, installation and Management Television machine system, video code conversion, and user and TV information registration, the upgrading of TV software and recovery, and start-up picture is set.In these processes, relate to computer from TV set terminal reading of data and process from data to TV set terminal that write.

The process of data read as shown in Figure 3, the data read of indication is meant that computer reads the data message in the memory device (for example flash memory, i.e. flash memory) of digital television by coffret here.At first by coffret computer is connected with television set, makes computer and television set carry out data communication by coffret, computer sends one " data read request " to television set.When television set detects reading command, carry out the read operation of data message, read data information from flash, and the data message that reads among the flash sent it back computer terminal with the form of packet, finish read operation.

The process that data write as shown in Figure 4, the data of indication write and are meant that computer writes data message in the memory device of television set by coffret here.At first by coffret digital television is connected with computer or memory device, makes PC and television set carry out data communication by coffret, PC sends one " data write request " to television set.Digital Television detects when writing instruction; detect the write-protect state (optional) of flash memory device; be in to write the state that also can read the time when detecting the flash memory device; the data message of PC end is write specified flash sector; at last data are provided with the protection sign, finish write operation.
