CA 2288355

Video on Demand (VOD) allows a user to preview and order movies and pay per view events through an interactive on screen ordering process. The video on demand application allows a user to preview, order, stop, pause, fast forward, rewind, and restart a movie or event in real time, on demand. The disclosed system allows the user to have VOD functionality while the implementing technology is Near Video on Demand (NVOD). The user has VOD functionality in near real-time using a staggered broadcast of non-unique video streams (NVOD - near video on demand) i.e. multiple streams per type of content, combined with a local storage and playback device (call this a "set top box" STB for this description) located in the user's home.
