Including verifying whether the code of user B is valid, and if the user provides the network address of the video program, it is also necessary to verify whether the video program can be successfully obtained from the network address; and verify the video program provided by user A. Whether it can be converted into the original data stream of the video playback format supported by User B. If the above verification can pass, the verification is successful, and the result is notified to the user A; one of the right verifications cannot pass the _th.. the stupid failure, delete the greedy program sending setting information, and notify the user A. The interactive half 30 is used to interact with the user B and select the fixed sound program transmission time. Including sending a notification message to the user B, informing the user b of the scene; the sender of the sound program, the duration, the introduction and the like. If the user 8 agrees to receive the video program, the latest network space: inter-time period is provided to the user B to select an appropriate sending time; if the user B does not agree to receive the video program or does not respond, the interaction fails, and the deletion is performed. The video program transmits the setting information and notifies the user A. After the interaction unit 30 receives the transmission time selected by the user B, it is determined whether the transmission time is the network idle time. If the parent is successful, the interaction result is saved to the storage unit 6 and the user A is notified; if the sending time is If the network is not idle, re-offer the latest network idle time to give User B a choice. The processing unit 40 is configured to: when the interaction is successful, convert the video program to the original data stream of the video playback format supported by the user B, and save the original data stream to the storage unit 60 » 099127520 Form No. A0101 Page 6 / 19 pages 0992048356- [0014] The processing unit 40 is further configured to determine whether the scheduled transmission time is currently reached. If it has arrived, the trigger sending unit 50 sends the converted original stream of the video program to the user, and continues to wait if it has not arrived yet. [0016] The sending unit 50 is configured to send to the user when triggered. The original data stream of the video program is sent to the user after the transmission is completed. [0017] [0018] As shown in FIG. 2, it is a flow of a preferred embodiment of the method for implementing sharing of a set-top box audio and video program according to the present invention. Figure. Ο Step S10, the receiving unit 10 receives the video program transmission setting information of the user A. The video program transmission setting information includes the code of the user B and the video program material customized by the user A. The operator has the account information corresponding to the smart card of each set-top box and the contact information of the user, and creates an open identifier corresponding to each account. This identifier may be an email address or a string of characters assigned by the operator to each user. We call this user code. The video program material customized by the user A includes a video program to be sent, or a network address of the video program, and a brief introduction and other information. Operators can customize the way the audio and video program sends settings information. A typical method is Internet web page input, or other communication methods can be used to complete these settings, such as telephone, SMS, etc. In step S12, the verification unit 20 verifies the video program transmission setting information of the user A. If the verification is successful, the process proceeds to step S14, and if the verification fails, the process ends. 099127520 Form No. A0101 Page 7 of 19 0992048356-0 [0019] Step S14, the interaction unit 30 interacts with the user B and determines the video program transmission time. If the interaction is successful, the process proceeds to step S1. If the interaction fails, the process ends. [0021] Step S16, the processing unit 40 converts the video program into the original data stream of the video playback format supported by the user B and saves it to the storage unit 60. [0022] Step S18, the processing unit 40 determines Whether the scheduled delivery time is currently reached. If it has arrived, step S20 is performed, and if it has not arrived, step S18 is continuously executed. [0023] Step S20, the sending unit 50 sends the original data stream of the video program to the user B. [0024] Step S22, the sending unit 50 reports to the user A that the transmission is successful after the original data stream of the video program is completed. [0025] As shown in FIG. 3, it is a specific flowchart of step S12 in FIG. 2. [0026] In step S100, the verification unit 20 verifies whether the code of the user B is valid. If it is effective, the process proceeds to step S1 0 2, and if it is invalid, step S11 0 is executed. [0027] Step S102, the verification unit 20 verifies whether the user A provides the network address of the video program. If not, step S106 is continued, and if so, step S1 0 4 is executed. [0028] Step S104, the verification unit 20 verifies whether the video program can be successfully obtained from the network address. If the video program can be successfully obtained from the network address, step S106 is continued, and if not, step S110 is performed. [0029] Step S106, the verification unit 20 verifies whether the video program provided by the user A is 099127520 Form No. A0101 Page 8/19 pages 0992048356-0 201210322 2 Converts the original data stream supported by the liver B. The right can be converted to step 4 (4) Q8; if it cannot be converted, execute S11 〇. [0030] Step S1G8' verifies that the unit pulse is successful, and notifies the user a of the result. [0031] ^ SU〇, the verification unit fails to verify, deletes the video program transmission, sets the message, and notifies the user A. [0032] As shown in FIG. 4, it is a specific flowchart of step S14 in FIG. [0033] 〇 Step S200, the interaction unit sends a notification message to inform the user B of the sender, duration, profile, and the like of the video program. [0034] Step S202: The interaction unit 3 receives the user (4) feedback. If the user b agrees to receive the video program, then step S2Q4 is performed. If the user b does not agree to receive the video program or does not respond, step S212 is performed. [0035] Step S204, the interaction unit 3 provides the latest network idle period to the user B to select an appropriate transmission time. [0036] Step S206' The interaction unit 3() receives the transmission time selected by the user B. [0037] Step S208, determining whether the transmission time is a network idle time, and if yes, executing step S210. If the transmission time is not the network (four) time, the process returns to step S204. [0038] Step S210' The interaction unit 3 saves the interaction result to the storage unit and notifies the user A. [0039] Step S212' The interaction unit 3 deletes the video program transmission setting information and notifies the user A. 099127520 Form No. A0101 Page 9 of 19 0992048356-0 201210322 [0040] In summary, the present invention complies with the requirements of the invention patent, and patents are filed according to law.
