User interface for television schedule system in which the future events are paged in time |
摘要 |
An interface for a television system whereby a user, while viewing a television program, can upon demand via remote control view information in a banner overlaid on the currently displayed program. The banner may contain descriptions of programs being aired currently on all available channels, and descriptions of programs that are scheduled for future broadcasts on all available channels. The user can jump through the channel timeslots by manipulating keys on the keypad or remote control to input the number of hours to jump ahead or back. Program scheduling is provided by an electronic program guide that is received with the television signals and stored in the television receiver.
