Description
Scienceに発表された「Stay Tuned for Smart TV」に概説されている。
1990年11月発行のPopularScienceに発表された「Stay Tuned for Smart TV」
Shackから入手できるような変調器でよく、それからその信号はテレビ受像機27に送られ、それはユーザーが変調チャンネル例えばチャンネル3又は4に同調するようにする。その複合ビデオ信号はVDGからそのVDG上のビデオポート25Aを通って直接にテレビ受像機27又は他の受像装置に供給することもできる。
作動時には、本発明の電子プログラムスケジュール装置は以下のように機能する。
視聴者がテレビ受像機で特定の番組チャンネルを見ているときに、番組スケジュールシステムは、図5に示すように、フリップモードになるようにデフォルトを働かせる。このモードでは、視聴者が、例えば、リモートコントロール装置の上下方向矢印を用いて、番組のチャンネルを変える度に、チューナーで選択されたチャンネルのプログラム情報を有するグラフィックオーバーレイ51がテレビ受像機27のスクリーン上に受像された番組信号55に重なるように表示される。図1に示すようなビデオオーバーレイ装置25は、コンピュータにより生じるRGBビデオグラフィック・オーバーレイ情報とチューナーからのNTSCフォーマット番組信号とを結合し、NTSCフォーマット出力信号を供給する。この信号はチューナーからの番組信号とテレビ受像機27上で見る番組スケジュール表示情報とを含む。
ブラウズモードを開始するには、利用者は図3に示す第1実施例のリモートコントロール装置31を用いるときは、フリップモードにあるときにモード・スイッチを1回だけ押す。図4に示す第2実施例のリモートコントロール装置40を用いるときは、利用者は、ブラウズ・アイコン47Aの下にあるボタンを押す。
23に指令して、図14に示すように、テレビ受像機27上にリマインダー・オーバーレイ・メッセージ140を表示させ、利用者に、同人が以前選択した番組を見るリマインダーを設定したことがリマインドさせる。リマインダーメッセージ140はチャンネル、サービス及び開始時間を含んでいる。これは、また特定の番組の放映時間前の分数を表示し、放映時間まで各分毎に表示を更新する。またリマインダーメッセージ140は「チャンネル選択」(TUNE)問合せを表示し、利用者に対して、自分で選択した番組にチャンネルを合わせるか否かを尋ねる。利用者が複数のリマインダーを設定するときは、リマインダー・オーバーレイは各リマインダーが放映される予定の時間に応じて、例えば昇順に重ねられ、利用者が、その時に表示されているリマインダーメッセージを除去する適当な処置をとった後はテレビ受像機上には次のリマインダーメッセージが現れる。リマインダーメッセージ140は、また、利用者が以前に設定したすべてのリマインダーのリストを表示したり修正したりすることができるようにされ得る。フリップモードでのオーバーレイ表示時間とともに、利用者は視聴者選択モードを用い、時間の表示を修正して、選択した番組が放映される前にリマインダーメッセージが現れる時間を変更することができる。
図3に示されたリモートコントローラ31を使用して、ユーザーは、MODEボタン38を1回あるいは2回押すことにより、それぞれBROWSEモードあるいはFLIPモードからMENUモードに入ることができる。図4に示されたリモートコントローラ40を使用すると、ユーザーは、MENUアイコンに相当するキー47Bを単に押すことになる。
GUIDE」アイコン61AはTVガイド(商標)マガジンからの番組表情報に対応し、第二のバー62内の「NOW SHOWING」アイコン62Aはペイパービュー及びプレミアムサービス種目に対応し、第三のバー63内の「MSO
Logo」アイコン63Aはカスタマサービスあるいはローカルケーブルカンパニー情報メッセージに対応し、第四のバー64内の円形アイコン64Aは、ユーザーが利用できる他の対話的サービスに対応し、広帯域ネットワークの場合には他のメニュー、例えばホームショッピング、バンキング、あるいは電話としての使用に対応する。図6A及び図6Bにも示されているように、各バーはその内容の文字による説明も含んでいる。
MENU画面215は以下に説明される別の「Locator」識別子も含んでいる。
GUIDE」アイコンに隣接するグリッドアイコン65Aが選択される。
MENU 215に示されたカテゴリーにも適用できることが当業者には明らかである。
Listings」モードを表している。別に、図25に示されたような、単一列のグリッド状ディスプレイも使用できる。この形式では、垂直y軸はチャンネル番号及びサービスを特定し、一方水平x軸は時間を特定する。図18の画面ディスプレイは、ユーザーにシステムの現在の動作モードを知らせるために、左上部コーナーにモード識別子180、この場合には表記「All
Listings」も含んでいる。そのモードディスプレイのすぐ下にあるのは、ユーザーがMENUモードを入力する前に見ていたチャンネルの強調されたディスプレイ181である。右上部にコーナーには、現在の日付及び時間を交互に表示する日付/時間識別子183のすぐ上のウインドウ内に、ロゴアイコン182がある。
Listing guideを入力すると、時間リスト化は、最新の時間が1時間又は1/2時間ではないときにはデフォルトによってその最新の時間の直前の30分に開始し、その場合には、表示が特定の時間又は30分から開始し、さらに、そのチャンネルリスト化はMENUモードに入る前にユーザーが見た最後のチャンネルから開始する。例えば、図18において、最新の時間は7:13p.m.と表示され、その時間のリスト化は7:00p.m.に始まり、さらに、チャンネルのリスト化はチャンネル4から始まる。
リスト モードにおいて情報を表示するために内容により、情報を分類できる。
リスト モードに入る前にユーザーが見ていた最後のチャンネルから開始される幾つかの連続チャンネル202A−202Cのリストである。中間ウインドウ202Bにおけるチャンネルは強調されていて、予定情報を表示するためのチャンネルとなっている。表示は、現在の時間が一時間又は半時間上にないと、現在の時間の直前の半時間から開始する強調されたチャンネルに表示される番組に関連し、その場合、表示は特別な時間又は半時間から開始する。ユーザーは、先に説明したように、カーソルのスクリーンの下部への操作及び表示の頁めくりにより、更に将来のリストを表示できる。ユーザーはまた、リモトートコントローラ40上で左又は右方向矢印キーを操作することにより、選択されたチャンネルを変更できる。この方式により、ユーザーがチャンネル変更指令を発すると、次の連続チャンネルが、表示の文頭にあるチャンネル列において強調されたウインドウ202Bに表示され、新たに選択されたチャンネルのための予定情報がテレビ受信機27に表示される。
メッセージ270及び請求情報271を含む。ユーザーがケーブルシステム メッセージ オプション270を選択すると、ユーザーには、図28Aに示されるような、地方ケーブルオペレータに関連したメッセージが呈示される。ユーザーが、図27に示される請求状況オプション271を選択すると、ユーザーには図29に示されるような現在の請求情報が呈示される。この情報は、ユーザーに請求された購入記録、現在の収支情報、係留中の注文、利用可能なクレジットの表示を含み、ここでクレジットは、ケーブル又は他のオペレータにより借用可能限界が予め定められている。従って、ユーザーは、予め設定された確実な使用限界のみを明示すればよい。視聴毎料金番組の請求額がひとたび限界に達すると、マイクロコントローラは更なる番組注文を許可しない。代替的なメッセージメニューが図28Bに示されている。
discretion)である。ユーザーが、右方向矢印キーを使用してアクティブウインドウ302まで移動して、特定の項目、例えば「L」を選択してエンターキーを押すと、マイクロコントローラ16に、暴力的か過激なことば(language)を示す「L」で表される番組のためにキーロックアクセスが選択されたことが指示される。システムは、「L」カテゴリー表示の直下にキーアイコンを表示させることにより、キーロックアクセスの起動を示す。キーロックアクセスが設定されると、これは、カテゴリー文字を選択し、次いでエンターキーを押すことにより、起動終了する。この動作は、キーアイコンを消去させる。ユーザーは、リモートコントローラ40上で左右方向矢印キーの使用によりアクティブウインドウ302における格付けカテゴリーを変更でき、そのイメージは、アクティブウインドウに隣接するスクリーン上に、ユーザーに対するリマインダーとして表示される。この方式では、ユーザーは、親の指導カテゴリー内に表れるいずれの番組内容確認のためにキーロックアクセスを設定するために他の格付けカテゴリーを選択できる。
評価」308を強調すると、ユーザーは、図30にも示されるように、これらMPAA 評価コードに基づく番組のためのキーロックアクセスをも設定できる。
ブロック」又は「チャンネル ロック」と題することができる。親の指導カテゴリー301及びMPAA 評価カテゴリー303とともに、ユーザーはチャンネルブロックカテゴリー303に進み、この操作は、リモートコントローラ上の方向矢印キーを使用してカーソルを操作し、さらにエンターキーを押すことによって行う。チャンネルブロックカテゴリー303が入力されると、ユーザーは、図30にチャンネル2を示すアクティブウインドウ307まで水平方向に移動できる。ユーザーが、リモートコントローラ40上の方向矢印キーを使用してカーソルを操作することにより、このウインドウを強調すると、キーロックアクセスが、アクティブウインドウに現われるチャンネルに対し設定される。これが、キーロックアクセスモードにおける他の目的カテゴリーとともに行われると、エンターキーを押すことにより実行され、これにより、アクティブウインドウにおけるチャンネル番号の下にキーアイコンが再び表示される。ユーザーは、リモートコントローラ40上の左又は右方向矢印キーのいずれかを押すことにより、順に前のチャンネルか次ぎのチャンネルへ移動できる。この方式では、ユーザーは、任意の利用可能なチャンネルのためにキーロックアクセスを稼働させることができる。
インフォーメーションがそのチャンネルに表示されることは許す。
KCNC」がロックされ、これはウインドウに表れる反転及びパッドロックアイコンにより示されている。
Jacket」番組リストを選択して強調表示している間に、リモートコントロールの星印が付いたボタンを押すと、ビデオテープ方式選択画面が図43Bに表示される。この画面は、ユーザーに特定の商品やサービスと各種オプション及び/又はビデオテープ方式、並びに異なるオプションとビデオテープ方式の価格が利用可能であることを知らせる。図43Bに示すように、リモートコントロール装置40の左矢印ボタンと右矢印ボタン43Bはスクロールしてビデオテープ方式を選択するのに用いられる。ユーザーがスクロールすると、表示されている価格が自動的に変更されて現在選択されているビデオテープ方式の価格を反映する。特定のビデオテープ方式すなわちVHS方式のカセットを選択すると(リモートコントロール装置40の「OK」又はENTERキー44を押して)、図43Cの画面が表示されて支払方法と発送方法を選択する。ユーザーは番組サービスに対するユーザーへの請求書の購入価格に追加されるオプション、並びに各種クレジットカードを含むさまざまな支払方法をスクロールして選択する。画面の下部で、ユーザーは自分のクレジットカードの番号と有効期間を入力する。また、さまざまな発送方法もスクロールして選択する。従って、合計価格は選択した発送方法によって異なってくる。支払方法と発送方法を選択すると、図43Dの画面が表示されこの画面で注文の確認をする。購入コードを用いて、図43Eに示すように許可されていない人が商品やサービスを注文するのを禁止してもよい。購入コードは、上述した番組ロックアウトコードと同じように前もって選択できる。
