INTERACTIVE PROGRAM GUIDE SYSTEM, AND PROCESS |
摘要 |
<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an interactive program guide system and a related process thereto. <P>SOLUTION: The interactive program guide is preferably implemented using a microprocessor-controlled set-top box that is coupled to a viewer's television set. The set-top box receives program schedule information and software from a headend telecasting center. Preferably, the program schedule information for the current day and at least six subsequent days is stored in a memory within the set-top box. The interactive program schedule guide provides a display mode for allowing a viewer to apply a restrictive search selection criterion and a non-restrictive sort attribute to the program schedule information. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
