<p>Abstract The present invention relates to a method for addressing program overruns based on program interest. The method 5 comprises detecting, using a processor, a program overrun on a first channel. The processor determines whether interest for the program overrun exceeds interest for a regularly scheduled program on the first channel. In response to determining that the interest for the program 10 overrun exceeds the interest for the regularly scheduled program, bandwidth is allocated for a second channel in a switched digital video (SDV) system to accommodate the program overrun.</p> |
