Abstract

Un sistema de plan de programa electronico que incluye un receptor para recibir la informacion del plan del programa de television y la informacion de promocion transmitida vía satélite, un sistema de reproduccion digital para almacenar la informacion de promocion y plan y preparar en formato páginas de la informacion y un modulador de canal de cabletelevision para modular las páginas de informacion en un sistema de cabletelevision. Un procesador de datos en el sistema de reproduccion recibe y almacena una memoria, la informacion de plan de programa de television con una pluralidad de programas de television a fin de que aparezcan en la pluralidad de canales de television. Un receptor de television se usa para presentar el plan del programa de television y la informacion de promocion sintonizando el receptor o caja del convertidor de cable al canal designado después de lo cual las señales se modulan. Un generador de medios multiples reciben mandos de control desde el procesador de datos y la informacion del plan del programa desde la memoria y presenta una porcion de la informacion de plan de programa ya sea en un formato de rejilla de pantalla completa o un formato de rejilla de pantalla parcial junto con la informacion de promocion, tal y como se controla mediante un plan para presentacion de la informacion de promocion existente en el procesador de datos. El procesador de datos controla el generador de medios multiples con mandos de control, emitidos en respuesta a un programa de computadora que existe en el procesador de datos, para presentar la informacion de plan de programa y la informacion de promocion.
