The system according to claim 1, characterized in that said computer circuitry responds to control signals from a remote control device that cause the superimposition circuitry to change the weight coefficient of the output signal of the program guide with respect to the television output signal so that when the computer circuit increases the weight coefficient of the output signal of the program guide, then the displayed signal generated by the overlay circuit. causes a weakening in a distinguishable image on the display screen of the displayed sections of the program guide, as a result of which the selected television channel is less visible through the program guide. 3. Система по п. 1, отличающаяся тем, что упомянутая компьютерная схема реагирует на управляющие сигналы с устройства дистанционного управления, которые приводят к тому, что схема наложения изменяет весовой коэффициент выходного сигнала программы передач по отношению к выходному телевизионному сигналу таким образом, что когда компьютерная схема уменьшает весовой коэффициент выходного сигнала программы передач, то отображаемый сигнал, генерируемый схемой наложения, вызывает усиление в различимом изображении на экране дисплея отображаемых участков программы передач, вследствие этого выбранный телевизионный канал оказывается более видимым через программу передач. 3. The system according to claim 1, characterized in that the said computer circuit responds to control signals from the remote control device, which leads to the fact that the overlay circuit changes the weight coefficient of the output signal of the program guide with respect to the television output signal so that when Since the computer circuit reduces the weight of the output signal of the program guide, the displayed signal generated by the overlay circuit causes amplification in a distinguishable image on the display screen. parts of the program guide, as a result of which the selected television channel is more visible through the program guide. 4. Система по п. 1, отличающаяся тем, что компьютерная схема реагирует на управляющие сигналы с устройства дистанционного управления путем включения и выключения режима отображения программы передач, при этом компьютерная схема устанавливает весовой коэффициент выходного сигнала программы передач при включении режима отображения программы передач, равным весовому коэффициенту, установленному на момент последнего выключения режима отображения программы передач. 4. The system according to claim 1, characterized in that the computer circuit responds to control signals from the remote control device by turning the program guide display mode on and off, while the computer circuit sets the weight coefficient of the program guide output signal when the program guide display mode is turned on, equal the weight coefficient set at the time of the last shutdown of the program guide display mode. 5. Система по п. 1, отличающаяся тем, что выходной сигнал программы передач содержит выходной сигнал "прокрутки" программы передач для того, чтобы на экране дисплея отображалась программа передач, непрерывно перемещающаяся в вертикальном направлении. 5. The system according to claim 1, characterized in that the output of the program guide contains the output signal of the "scrolling" of the program guide so that the program guide continuously moving in the vertical direction is displayed on the display screen. 6. Система по п. 1, отличающаяся тем, что экран дисплея (33) отображает величину, представляющую относительный весовой коэффициент выходного сигнала программы передач по отношению к выходному телевизионному сигналу. 6. The system according to claim 1, characterized in that the display screen (33) displays a value representing the relative weight coefficient of the output signal of the program guide with respect to the output of the television signal. 7. Способ отображения программы передач на экране дисплея, включающий этапы приема телевизионных сигналов, соответствующих ряду телевизионных каналов, и формирования выходного телевизионного сигнала, соответствующего выбранному телевизионному каналу из ряда телевизионных каналов, прием управляющих сигналов, прием информации о программе передач для упомянутой программы передач с помощью компьютерной схемы и генерирование выходного сигнала программы передач с помощью упомянутой компьютерной схемы, соответствующего по крайней мере части информации о программе передач, отличающийся тем, что включает отображение упомянутой программы передач в виде различимого изображения сверху упомянутого выбранного телевизионного канала на упомянутом экране дисплея путем суммирования упомянутого выходного сигнала программы передач и упомянутого выходного телевизионного сигнала, используя схему наложения. 7. A method of displaying a program guide on a display screen, comprising the steps of receiving television signals corresponding to a series of television channels, and generating an output television signal corresponding to a selected television channel from a number of television channels, receiving control signals, receiving program information for said program guide with using a computer circuit and generating a program guide output using said computer circuit corresponding at least to transmitting information about a program guide, characterized in that it includes displaying said program guide in the form of a distinguishable image on top of said selected television channel on said display screen by summing said program signal output and said television output signal using an overlay circuit. 8.
