Description
ーンガイドシステムは、オンスクリーンガイドシステムの分野では先駆的なものであることが立証されている。スターサイトシステムはテレビ視聴のみならず、テーマ検索、VCRプログラミング、詳細な番組情報、及びその他の機能性といった能力をも提供する。
と。このような1つのシステムにおいては、例えば衛星ソース及びケーブルソースといったような異種のソースからのガイド情報が組合わされて統一ガイドを形成する。本発明に従ったシステムは、例えばこのようなソースからの冗長な情報を削除し、その他の機能性を提供することができる。
号の中でさらに詳しく記述されているように、組織立った形で検索されユーザーに表示される。
ローカルチャンネルを実行する場合、チャンネルマップは、ローカルケーブルとDBSチャンネルの両方が組合された状態で作成される。ローカルチャンネル及びDBSチャンネルは、ソース識別子でタグ付けされる。この組合されたガイド情報は、システムによって、たとえ同じ番組のもう1つの放映例と同じソースからのものでなくても1つの特定の番組がいつ放映される予定かを識別するために使用される。
号に従ってテーマ別にソート及び/又はフィルタリングできる。
Wind)」に向けられ、クロスハッチにより示されている。この特定の放映例においては
、ディスプレイの左方向に向かう2重マークは、「風と共に去りぬ」がすでに何時間か放映されてしまっていることを指示している。従ってユーザーは、ユーザーが自動的に「風と共に去りぬ」の将来の放映を録画するか又は自動的に「風と共に去りぬ」の将来の放映に同調するか又は単純に「風と共に去りぬ」が将来の一時刻において放映される予定であることに気が付くように、「風と共に去りぬ」の映画がその他の時刻に放映されているか否かを知りたいと思うであろう。
りたいことを示すために、システムに対し入力を提供する。この入力は、例えば、リモコンで専用ボタンを押すことによってか、又は番組をマークし、カーソルを「when-else」
スクリーン表示ボタン48までトグルし、リモコン上で「入力」ボタンを押すことによって提供される。当然のことながら、フルキーボードであれば、より汎用性のある操作が可能となるだろう。
ここで示されているように、「風と共に去りぬ」の映画は、未来の多数の時刻で放映されている。特定的に言うと、現時刻について生成されたグリッドガイドからスクリーンが入力されたのであればおそらくすでにユーザーが気づいているように、この映画は現在HB01上で放映中である。さらに、同じチャンネルは、この映画を同じ日の午後11時にも放映している。又異なるチャンネルHB02がこの映画を同じ日の午後11時30分に放映している。この特定の事例においては、HB01及びHB02はテレビ信号の同じソース上で(この場合、ケーブルサービスプロバイダ)ユーザーに対し提供されている。従って、本発明はただ1つのサービスソースしか使用されない場合でも有用であることがわかる。本発明の有用性は、テレビ信号の多数のソースが提供される場合、さらに拡張される。この例では、「風と共に去りぬ」は同様に、次の水曜日の午後4時にDSSチャンネルで、又次の木曜日に従来のアンテナネットワーク信号、即ちNBC上でも放映されている。従って、特定の番組が異なる時刻に放映されているとき、ユーザーは、テレビ信号の異なるソース上でその番組が放映されている場合でさえこの情報を利用することができる。
が提供される可能性もある。
後の時刻ではなく実際の現時刻に始まるその特定の番組の全ての放映例をサーチすることになる。この要領で、ユーザーは例えば、遠い日付におけるリストに基づいて特定の番組に対して最大の関心を寄せた場合でさえ、その後数時間以内のいつ特定の映画が放映されるかを識別することができる。
