Abstract

Selon l'invention, on programme par l'intermédiaire d'une page Web (106) un système d'enregistrement (120) de contenu, programmable à distance, afin d'enregistrer un contenu radiodiffusé, tel que des émissions de télévision. En conséquence, un utilisateur (110) peut choisir le contenu qui l'intéresse et programmer le système pratiquement à partir de n'importe quel endroit, à l'aide d'un navigateur Web (112). Un système hôte (102) accueille un site Web (104) par l'intermédiaire duquel l'utilisateur peut visualiser des listes d'émissions et choisir un contenu. En réponse au choix d'une émission par l'utilisateur, le système hôte crée des données de programmation et transmet celles-ci au système d'enregistrement de l'utilisateur. Le système d'enregistrement peut être configuré pour recevoir des transmissions à partir du système hôte. Un module de programmation client peut être complété par un serveur Web et une connexion Internet afin de constituer un point de présence sur le WWW, par le biais duquel le système peut être directement programmé.
