METHOD FOR THE COMBINED BROADCASTING OF A TELEVISION PROGRAMME AND AN ADDITIONAL MULTIMEDIA CONTENT

摘要

Television programmes have changed over the past years. It happens in fact that these programmes are enhanced by additional contents that a user can access by means of his television set. However, in order to go further in the enhancement, it may be wished to enhance a television programme with contents that can be played, executed or broadcast on devices other than the television set displaying the television programme. In this case there is a risk that the broadcasting of the additional content on another device may compete with the broadcasting of the television programme on the television set that it is supposed to enhance. The invention makes it possible for the additional content and the television programme not to be in competition. Thus, when the additional content (313) is broadcast, the television programme is paused (309) and resumes (317) only when use of the additional content has ended.
