METHOD FOR SCHEDULING CONTENT ITEMS AND TELEVISION SYSTEM WITH AIDED CONTENT SELECTION

摘要

In a system for scheduling content items accessible to a receiver having a processor (120), at least one type of memory (150, 160, 170) bi-directionally connected to the processor (120), a data receiving block (110), an A/V block (130) for transmitting an output A/V signal, and external interfaces (140), the processor (120) comprises a schedule parameters module (121) for receiving and processing user's parameters input, a schedule search module (122) for searching local or remote schedule databases using parameters defined by the schedule parameters module (121) and a module (123) for adjusting and presenting content items to a user. These three modules (121, 122, 123) in another embodiment of the system can be separate modules placed outside the processor (120).
