We have disclosed an enhanced radio system that provides for the capture and playback of one or more radio stations. The user may tune to a station, or scan through stations, rewind to hear what was missed, and fast-forward through undesired content. The system allows a user to rate content, and to be notified when that content is being played on any station. The system may make radio station recommendations. The system allows the user to respond easily to radio content, download audio content, and send radio content to another user. The system may provide other radio related and radio content related information. The system may provide a karaoke mode. The system may also allow the user to integrate a telephone with the radio. The system may report usage information to a collection facility.

A system includes a receiver to receive content and an advertisement. The system further includes a cache, coupled to the receiver, to store the content and the advertisement. An interface in the receiver receives an updated advertisement and updating instructions, the updating instructions to enable the receiver to replace the stored advertisement with the updated advertisement. The receiver detects a starting point of the advertisement and creates a marker and inserts it into the content to indicate said starting point, and stores the advertisement from the content to a memory storage location separate from the content, and creates and stores a pointer to the memory location. The interface detects a user-initiated pause in the viewing of content, retrieves the updated advertisement from storage, and provides a user interface that enables the user to view the retrieved advertisement for as long as the viewing of the content remains paused. The receiver is configured to overlay the retrieved advertisement with material descriptive of upcoming content in the received content.

A method of updating age restriction settings for content on a mobile communication terminal, the method comprising requesting authentication data, in response to determining that a first age restriction value associated with a first content on the mobile communication terminal is greater than a first threshold value; and providing the first content via the mobile communication terminal and setting the first threshold value equal to the first age restriction value, in response to determining that the authentication data is valid.
摘要:
A handheld electronic device for use at a venue hosting a live sporting event, having a receiver for receiving a wireless RF transmission conveying a plurality of video streams derived from video cameras filming the live sporting event, a display and a user interface for selecting a video stream among the plurality of video streams to be displayed on the display. The handheld electronic device is capable to acquire a locked mode of operation and an unlocked mode of operation, in the locked mode of operation the handheld electronic device being precluded from displaying the video streams to a spectator, in the unlocked mode of operation the handheld electronic device being enabled to display the video streams to the spectator, the handheld electronic device capable to acquire the unlocked mode of operation in response to reception of authentication data wirelessly transmitted to the handheld electronic device.
摘要:
In a broadcast receiving apparatus and a channel changing method in a broadcast receiving apparatus, broadcast data corresponding to a selected broadcast program, included in a channel broadcast signal received as a result of broadcast program selection, is descrambled based on previously stored descrambling control information, thereby shortening scrambling time and reducing channel change time in the broadcast receiving apparatus.

摘要:
A mobile terminal and method of controlling a broadcast therein are disclosed, by which a currently-output broadcast content can be continued to be output despite expiration of a validity term of a broadcast viewing authority. The method includes acquiring a first broadcast viewing authority, receiving and outputting a first broadcast content if the first broadcast viewing authority is acquired, determining whether a validity term of the acquired first broadcast viewing authority expires within a broadcast time of the output first broadcast content, and if the validity term expires within the broadcast time, displaying an image for a purchase of the first broadcast content.
