Abstract
Provided are a method and apparatus for diagnosing a CableCARD-related status and performing proper processing according to the diagnosis result in an OpenCable system; an OpenCable host; and an OpenCable reception apparatus. The CableCARD-related status diagnosis and processing apparatus includes: a diagnosis unit diagnosing the CableCARD-related status or a network-related status; and a processor performing processing according to the status determined from the diagnosis result. Therefore, by installing a software-processing logic against critical errors or definite faults in a television or a set-top box in an OpenCable system, it is possible to diagnose a CableCARD-related status and quickly handle the CableCARD when an error is generated in the CableCARD, thereby reducing costs to service providers and providing an improvement in service quality to users.
