METHOD OF REPRODUCING AUDIOVISUAL DOCUMENTS BY AN APPARATUS POSSESSING A PARTICULAR CHARACTERISTIC, APPARATUS AND SERVER FOR IMPLEMENTING THE METHOD

摘要

The present invention relates to a method of reproducing a plurality of audiovisual documents at the level of a receiver so as to present a user with a list of documents suited to his tastes. Firstly, receivers transmit the profile of their users to a server. The server computes chronological display lists for audiovisual documents, corresponding to the various user profiles and transmits them to the reproduction apparatus through a broadcasting network. The list comprises at least one attribute identifying the receiver, identifiers of documents associated with a determined source and with a reproduction time. The receiver selects the list corresponding to its attribute. Next, when requested by the user, the apparatus displays the document of the list which corresponds to the present time. According to an improvement, documents are transmitted before the time of their reproduction and recorded in the apparatus. These recorded documents are extracted from the memory and reproduced at the time specified by the display list. The invention also relates to a terminal and a server for implementing the method.
