    摘要: Techniques for displaying a library of many movies and providing interactive mechanisms for users to browse the library, select or order a title are disclosed. In one embodiment, data pertaining to a title is distributed across a network. Whenever a movie is ordered, depending on implementation, either a leading portion of the data locally cached is played back or a time-fill program is activated during which distributed data is fetched as data streams from a set of designated boxes. In addition, movie titles are presented or displayed in movie banners, each resembling at least part or all of a corresponding movie poster distributed and promoted commercially by a studio or production company. Such a movie banner provides an expression with substantially similar style, colors and background such that a coincident impact may be created on audience when the movie banner is seen. Further each of the banners is embedded with a link that leads to a full review of the movie when selected.

    摘要: A graphic user interface is provided to facilitate a playback of a movie from any desired point. The graphic user interface includes a track bar to reflect how much time data pertaining to the movie title is available for playback. After it is determined that a current data point is being dragged along the track bar, a time corresponding to the current data point is tracked as such a subsequent playback of the movie starts right from the current data point. In one embodiment, dragging the current data point along the track bar is achieved by a scroll wheel.

    摘要: A graphic user interface is provided to allow a user to search an interested title among a plurality of titles by genre. In one embodiment, a list of types classifying the titles is displayed. A user is allowed to select one or more of the types to narrow down the list so that an interested title can be readily located in form of movie banners. As types are being selected, the list is progressively reduced. When one of the selected types is relaxed, the list is increased. In any case, movie titles in the list fall into a category classified by either one or all of the selected types.
