A METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SELECTIVELY STORING INFORMATION RECEIVED FROM A BROADCAST SIGNAL

摘要

A method for selectively storing information received from a broadcast signal is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of; receiving and identifying a broadcast message, the message comprising a plurality of characters; comparing each character of the received message with a start of tag (SOT) identifier stored in a memory; if a character received in the received message is determined to match the SOT identifier stored in the memory then comparing each of the subsequent characters in the received message with an end of tag (EOT) identifier stored in the memory determining if the received message contains both SOT and EOT identifiers; and storing the message in a storage unit in dependence on the result of the determination.
