Method and Arrangement for Storing and Playing Back TV Programmes

摘要

The invention relates to a method and a PVR server for storing and playing back TV programmes, in particular to an improved method for operating a network PVR and to an improved PVR server (102). The inventive method consists in determining the number of users storing in the personal archives thereof a determined TV programme, which is stored in the memory (108) of the PVR server (102). When the user number is less than a predefined limit value, an erasing signal occurs to them and the programme is cleared during a configurable period of time if no user selects said programme as to be preserved.
