    摘要: A remote support site having a detector internally collecting information on a user-selectable intrinsic broadcast characteristic of a media-playing set or television and a server enabling specification of a preferred setting for such characteristic from this information. A method including maintaining a remote site, therefrom internally collecting information from the set about a user-selectable intrinsic broadcast characteristic, and therefrom specifying a preferred setting for such characteristic. A similar method but information detected upon user request about user-adjustable component for selecting on-screen characteristic and final step is remotely adjusting component. A similar method but information is about broadcast characteristic potentially selectable initially by user instead remotely specified initially. A similar method but information is about plural broadcast characteristics and final step is remotely providing settings for each. Two methods on menu-free TV control via remote and a method listing possible broadcast outcomes so user can readily target outcome to resolve.

    摘要: An exemplary method to help end users configure their respective media playing sets includes prompting the user for their geographical location, transmitting the location to a remote processing site which identifies broadcast settings particularly suited for the location, and adjusting the set remotely from the site to fully implement automatically the settings. Another such method includes establishing a list of viewing categories, identifying preferred broadcast settings for each category, determining preferred categories for previous day/time combinations, predicting most likely to favored categories and settings, and automatically implementing such settings when the corresponding day/time combination is present. Yet another such method includes characterizing a particular program segment by at least one broadcast attribute, determining those broadcast settings most favorable for this segment based on such characterizing, and adjusting the set automatically for the user to implement these most favorable broadcast settings for the segment.

    摘要: Java Applets are packaged in a JAR file, including accompanying classes and resources as well as one addition file—a descriptor file. This last file can be read from the JAR file, and scanned to extract an icon to represent the applet on a menu, the applet's name in market applicable languages, applet size and position, and the applets main class name. No further processing need be done to present this applet to the user for selection. The entire applet need not be loaded into memory until the user requests it by using a remote control to select one of the applets represented on the display by a labeled icon. Once the user has selected the application, the applet can be sized and launched without further scanning.

    摘要: The invention relates to an improved interactive television having a timer. The timer alerts a television viewer of the expiration of preset timers. For example, the preset timers may be associated with events not traditionally related to television content, such as a kitchen timer. The exemplary kitchen timer can alert a television viewer that a baking time has expired. Thus, the timer can manage alerts in a non-intrusive manner to enhance the viewer's experience.

    摘要: A Personal Video Recorder (PVR) generates an object index table in real-time that can be updated while streaming media is being encoded and stored in memory. This allows more dynamic video trick mode operations such as fast forward, reverse and skip. The PVR also provides automatic data rate control that prevents video frames from being dropped thus preventing jitter in the output media.
