Title:
電子式放送チャネル情報内をナビゲートする方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4398540
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A method for navigating in an electronic broadcast channel periodical is proposed. Such an electronic broadcast channel periodical can be transmitted, in addition to a number of video channels, in a corresponding separate channel or can be transmitted integrated in the video channels. In order to control the display, cursor control keys (13-16) of an input means are used in the method. In the method, when the up key (15) or down key (16) is activated, the display is changed in such a way that the list of represented programmes of a selected broadcast channel provider is changed in such a way that the chronologically next or preceding programme is displayed or it becomes possible to see (30) the chronologically next or preceding list of programmes. When the left key (13) or right key (14) is activated, the display is changed in such a way that a list of programmes of a different broadcast channel provider is displayed (40). This permits very convenient navigation in the broadcast channel periodical, which is equivalent to the standard of convenience of a conventionally printed broadcast channel periodical.
