Abstract

"MéTODO E APARELHO PARA PROCESSAR CONTEúDO DISPONìVEL". Um sistema e método de vídeo pessoal sob demanda, que permite a um usuário receber conteúdo disponível utilizando um único sintonizador e desempenhar uma dentre uma pluralidade de operações no conteúdo disponível. Estas operações incluem gravar dois ou mais sinais, onde um ou ambos podem ser simultaneamente visualizados, gravar um ou mais sinais e fazer o playback de um ou mais sinais, fazer o playback de dois ou mais sinais, assistir um ou mais sinais enquanto grava um ou mais outros sinais, visualizar dois ou mais sinais ao vivo, ou visualizar pelo menos um sinal ao vivo, enquanto revê um ou mais sinais em um modo de playback.
