Linking of interactive television recording to applications

摘要

A method and computer-readable medium of handling recording of interactive television, such as MHP, wherein interactive television applications may initiate recording of interactive television content. The interactive television is tagged with information linking the content to the application that made the recording for access control purposes. In this way applications can see which recorded content is related to the application. Thus access is limited for applications to related recorded content. Furthermore an application may select between different parts of a multi-part program, such as a series of television programs.
