    摘要: A method for determining whether one or more of a plurality of data fields for a plurality of television stations of a database that stores program schedule information for an electronic program guide contains missing or invalid data characterised by:
    allowing a user to select a station from the plurality of stations for verification of at least one of the data fields for the selected station;
    allowing the user to select a time range for the verification of the data fields;
    automatically analysing the data fields for the selected station for errors, wherein the errors are comprised of invalid or missing data;
    listing the detected errors; and
    providing the user with the ability to correct the detected errors.

    摘要: An electronic program schedule system which includes a receiver for receiving broadcast, satellite or cablecast television programs for a plurality of television channels and a tuner for tuning a television receiver to a selected one of the plurality of channels. A data processor receives and stores in a memory television program schedule information for a plurality of television programs to appear on the plurality of television channels. A user control apparatus, such as a remote controller, is utilized by a viewer to choose user control commands and transmit signals in response to the data processor which receives the signals in response to user control commands. A television receiver is used to display the television programs and television program schedule information. A video display generator receives video control commands from the data processor and program schedule information from the memory and displays a portion of the program schedule information in overlaying relationship with a television program appearing on a television channel in at least one mode of operation of the television programming guide. The data processor controls the video display generator with video control commands, issued in response to the user control commands, to display program schedule information for any chosen one of the plurality of television programs in overlaying relationship with at least one television program then appearing on any other chosen of the plurality of channels on the television receiver.
