Methods, systems, and products for enhanced electronic programming guides |
摘要 |
Methods, systems, and products are disclosed for generating an enhanced programming guide. Programming events are associated as packages of programming. The programming guide is generated as a programming grid of cells. The programming grid lists a wrapper associated with each package and each package's associated events. The wrapper surrounds all the cells in the programming grid that are associated with the events for each package. |

1. A method comprising:
storing, in memory, an association between programming events in a package of programming; generating, by a processor, a programming guide as a programming grid of cells that displays a wrapper surrounding all cells in the programming grid that are associated with the programming events in the package of programming; scrolling from the wrapper to an adjacent wrapper of a different package of programming; and prompting to switch to a different mode of operation of the programming guide in response to determining the package of programming is associated with non-contiguous ones of the cells. |
