Patent

CA 2570705

A method, system and apparatus for delivering enhanced programming information. In some non-limiting embodiments the method comprises obtaining channel grid information for identifying a programming event, the programming event being associated to an occurrence interval. The method further comprises receiving a dynamic program description associated with the programming event. Receiving of the dynamic program description is executed during the occurrence interval associated to the programming event. The channel grid information is then augmented with the dynamic program description. The disclosed method, system and apparatus enable the subscriber to ascertain the current status of the programming event occurring on one or more channels to potentially enable the subscriber to make a more informed decision as to which specific programming event to select for viewing.

L'invention concerne un procédé, un système et un appareil pour acheminer des informations de programmation améliorées. Dans certains modes de réalisation non limitatifs, le procédé comprend l'obtention d'informations de grille de chaîne pour identifier un événement de programmation, l'événement de programmation étant associé à un intervalle d'apparition. Le procédé comprend en outre la réception d'une description de programme dynamique associée à l'événement de programmation. La réception de la description de programme dynamique est exécutée pendant l'intervalle d'apparition associé à l'événement de programmation. On ajoute ensuite aux informations de grille de chaîne la description de programme dynamique. Le procédé, le système et l'appareil de l'invention permettent à l'abonné de vérifier l'état actuel de l'événement de programmation apparaissant sur une ou plusieurs chaînes pour permettre éventuellement à l'abonné de prendre une décision mieux informée concernant quel événement de programmation spécifique sélectionner en vue de le regarder.
