摘要:
A method includes determining a content type of a multimedia program at a first time for each of a plurality of multimedia channels and associating, during a first channel navigation period, each multimedia channel of a first subset of the plurality of multimedia channels with a corresponding channel number of a channel numbering sequence. The method additionally includes determining a content type of a multimedia program at a second time for each of the plurality of multimedia channels and associating, during a second channel navigation period, each multimedia channel of a second subset of the plurality of multimedia channels with a corresponding channel number of the channel numbering sequence. Each multimedia program of the first subset includes a first content type at the first time and each multimedia program of the second subset includes the first content type at the second time.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for testing integrity of a wired communication link includes receiving a plurality of signals, sent by at least one transmitter over the wired communications link, at corresponding multiple receivers. The signals have corresponding frequencies within a frequency range of the wired communication link, such that the frequencies are representative of the frequency range. A signal loss corresponding to each of the frequencies is measured, and an indication of whether each measured signal loss is within an acceptable range is provided. The wired communication link may be a coaxial cable.

摘要:
A method includes associating a first channel identifier of an electronic programming guide with a first multimedia channel from a first content source and associating a second channel identifier of the electronic programming guide with a second multimedia channel from a second content source. The second content source is different from the first content source. A computer readable medium embodies a set of executable instructions that manipulate a processor to generate an electronic programming guide. The electronic programming guide includes a first set of one or more channel identifiers and a second set of one or more channel identifiers. Each channel identifier in the first set is associated with one or more multimedia channels of a cable television transmission and each channel identifier in the second set is associated with a multimedia channel of a packet-based network transmission.
