Claim Text:
1. A method for centrally producing a user-specific user interface for controlling and selecting interactive media applications, particularly for interactive television, wherein the user interface is displayed at the user end on an output unit and wherein control signals for controlling and selecting the media applications are input at the user end by way of an input unit, comprising: following the process of registration of the input unit and the output unit with a central service, the control signals are transmitted by way of a communication network to a central user interface server, the user interface server initiates a user interface production unit, which takes the control signals as a basis for generating user-specific elements for the user interface, a mixing component connected to a database adds non-user-specific elements from the database to the generated user-specific elements, and the user-specific user interface produced is then forwarded as a data stream from a central streaming server by way of the communication network to the output unit and displayed by this latter.
