Patent

CA 2392396

Electronic content, including television (TV) programming and computer network content, is managed by a computer in a web-based TV environment by gathering the electronic content from multiple sources, selectively arranging (e.g., combining, re-organizing and/or re-formatting) the gathered electronic content to form one or more virtual channels, which can then be presented to a viewer. A virtual program guide formed, (e.g., from metadata descriptive of the virtual channels), also can be generated and presented to viewers, who can use the virtual program guide to search for, sort, bookmark, and/or filter out virtual channels as desired.

L'invention concerne la gestion du contenu électronique, tel que les programmes de télévision ou le contenu d'un réseau informatique, par un ordinateur dans un environnement télévisuel articulé autour d'Internet, consistant à regrouper les contenus électroniques provenant de plusieurs sources, à disposer de manière sélective (p.ex. associer, réorganiser et/ou reformater) le contenu électronique regroupé en vue de la création d'un ou de plusieurs canaux virtuels pouvant ensuite être présentés à un téléspectateur. Un guide virtuel des programmes, formé notamment à partir des métadonnées décrivant les canaux virtuels, peut également être généré et présenté aux téléspectateurs qui peuvent s'en servir afin de rechercher, de trier, de noter et/ou de filtrer les canaux virtuels comme ils le souhaitent.
