Definitions

  • This invention relates to interactive television program guides, and more particularly, to techniques for providing interactive television program guide functionality on multiple devices within a household.
  • Cable, satellite, and broadcast television systems provide viewers with a large number of television channels. Viewers have traditionally consulted printed television program schedules to determine the programs being broadcast at a particular time. More recently, interactive electronic television program guides have been developed that allow television program information to be displayed on a viewer's television.
  • Interactive television program guides are typically implemented on set-top boxes. Such programs guides allow users to view television program listings in different display formats. For example, a user may instruct the program guide to display a grid of program listings organized in a channel-ordered or a time-ordered list. Users may also search or sort program listings by theme (e.g., movies, sports, etc.) or by title (i.e., alphabetically). A user may obtain additional information for a program by placing a highlight region on a desired program listing and pressing an “info” button.
  • theme e.g., movies, sports, etc.
  • title i.e., alphabetically
  • Households with children are concerned with protecting children from the potentially objectionable adult content contained in the broad range of programs that are currently available.
  • Some program guides allow users to block channels or programs using a parental control function. For example, a user may instruct the program guide to block access to channels that provide adult programs. A user must enter a password to regain access to such adult channels.
  • Another feature available on some program guides is the ability for the cable operator to send messages such as billing information to the user.
  • a user may also have the ability to set reminders that will alert the user when a preselected program is about to begin or that will automatically tune the user's set-top box to the channel of the preselected program when the program is about to begin.
  • a user may have the ability to establish a list of favorite channels. All of these program guide settings and features are specific to the user's set-top box.
  • an interactive television program guide system for a household in which multiple interactive television program guides within the household are coordinated.
  • various users in the household use various pieces of user television equipment (also called user television equipment devices).
  • An interactive television program guide is implemented on each piece of user television equipment.
  • Typical user television equipment may be a set-top box on which a program guide application and non-program-guide applications run, a videocassette recorder connected to the set-top box for recording television programs, and a television on which the program guide application may display various program guide display screens and the non-program-guide applications may display various non-program-guide display screens.
  • Other suitable types of user television equipment may be based on personal computer televisions (PC/TVs) or advanced television receivers such as high-definition television (HDTV) receivers.
  • PC/TVs personal computer televisions
  • HDTV high-definition television
  • Each piece of user television equipment may be located in a different part of the home. For example, one piece of equipment may be located in the parents' bedroom. Another piece of equipment may be located in a child's bedroom. Additional pieces of equipment may be located in a family room, kitchen, living room, etc.
  • Typical program guide features that may be provided by the program guides of this invention implemented on the user television equipment include features related to setting program reminders, profiles, program recording features, messaging features, favorites features, parental control features, program guide set up features (e.g., video display settings, language settings, etc.), and other suitable program guide features.
  • the system coordinates operation of the program guides so that, for example, a user may adjust his favorite channel settings on a program guide operating in the living room and those settings will be effective on the program guide operating in the master bedroom and may therefore be used by that program guide.
  • a parent may adjust parental control settings using the program guide in the parents' room and the system may apply those settings to all program guides in the household.
  • Parents may use the parental control feature to control the viewing of their children even though the children may be viewing television using multiple user television equipment devices. For example, parents may establish parental controls to lock various programs and services from a master location and the system will apply these parental controls to the various pieces of user television equipment throughout the household.
  • the ability to establish favorite channels, to set reminders, and to control other program guide settings at one location and to have those settings applied to multiple locations throughout the household may be used by both the parents and their children.
  • a user may adjust his favorite settings on a program guide in the family room and may direct the system to apply those settings to the program guides in the family room and the living room.
  • a child may set reminders for certain programs using the program guide in the family room and may direct the system to apply those settings only to the program guide running in that child's bedroom.
  • a user may select a program for recording using a program guide in the living room and may request that the videocassette recorder in the family room be used to record the selected program.
  • a user may receive messages from a cable system operator and may direct the system to make certain types of those messages available to the program guide located in all rooms but the children's room.
  • a user may adjust language or audio settings using one program guide and have those settings apply globally.
  • the settings for any suitable program guide features may be adjusted using the program guide at one location in a household and applied by the system to selected other program guides in the household.
  • the program guides may be linked using any suitable topologies and communication protocols.
  • the various pieces of user television equipment may be interconnected using a tree, bus or ring topology.
  • One piece of user television equipment may be designated as a primary device and other pieces of user television equipment may be designated as secondary devices.
  • the primary and secondary devices may be connected in a star arrangement.
  • a remote server may be used to implement certain program guide features and the pieces of user television equipment in the home may act as clients.
  • non-program-guide applications may be implemented on the user television equipment.
  • Such non-program-guide applications may include, for example, a web browser application, a home shopping application, a game application, an e-mail application, a chat application, a banking application, etc. These applications may be implemented on a set-top box within the user television equipment.
  • the user may adjust the settings of such a non-program-guide application at one set-top box.
  • the system coordinates the operation of the various set-top boxes so that the adjusted settings may be used by similar applications running on other set-top boxes in the household.
