Patent

CA 2732677

A DVR sends, to a server, information that indicates a set of programs. The information also may indicate a rank-ing of the programs in the set relative to each other. In response to receiving the information from the DVR, the server determines a 'to do' list of programs that the DVR should record as those programs are broadcasted in the future. The 'to do' list indicates recording times and channels for each program. The server sends the 'to do' list back to the DVR over the Internet. The DVR re-ceives the'to do' list over the Internet and stores the'to do' list. As the programs on the'to do' list are broadcasted, the DVR auto-matically records those programs at the list-specified times and on the list-specified channels. The DVR stores those programs on the DVR's hard disk drive for later viewing by the DVR user.

L'invention concerne un DVR envoyant, à un serveur, des informations qui indiquent un ensemble de programmes. Les informations peuvent également indiquer un classement des programmes dans l'ensemble les uns par rapport aux autres. En réponse à la réception des informations du DVR, le serveur détermine une liste 'à faire' des programmes que le DVR devrait enregistrer étant donné que ces programmes seront diffusés dans l'avenir. La liste 'à faire' indique les heures d'enregistrement et les canaux pour chaque programme. Le serveur renvoie la liste 'à faire' au DVR sur l'Internet. Le DVR reçoit la liste 'à faire' sur l'Internet et stocke la liste 'à faire'. Lorsque les programmes sur la liste 'à faire' sont diffusés, le DVR enregistre automatiquement ces programmes aux heures spécifiées dans la liste et sur les canaux spécifiés dans la liste. Le DVR stocke ces programmes sur le lecteur de disque dur du DVR pour une consultation ultérieure par l'utilisateur du DVR.
