CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10/212,017, entitled ��LOCALLY-UPDATED INTERACTIVE PROGRAM GUIDE��, filed Aug. 2, 2002, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Cable television systems are now capable of providing many services in addition to analog broadcast video. In implementing enhanced programming, the home communication terminal (��HCT��), otherwise known as the settop box, has become an important computing device for accessing various video services. In addition to supporting traditional analog broadcast video functionality, digital HCTs (or ��DHCTs��) now also support an increasing number of two-way digital services such as video-on-demand.
FIG. 5 depicts a non-limiting example of a name entry screen that may be presented to a user after the user selects the ��Add New User�� option depicted in FIG. 4.
FIG. 9 depicts a non-limiting example of a customization options screen that may be presented to a user after the user activates the ��C�� key on the remote control device depicted in FIG. 3.
FIG. 10 depicts a non-limiting example of a Home Network Options screen that may be presented to a user after the user selects the ��Home Network�� option via the customization options screen depicted in FIG. 9.
The IPG application 238, the HNCA 260, the PVR application 270, and all other applications executed by the resources of the DHCT 200 comprise executable instructions for implementing logical functions. The applications can be embodied in any computer-readable medium for use by or in connection with an instruction execution system. The instruction execution system may be, for example, a computer-based system, a processor-containing system, or any other system capable of executing instructions. In the context of this document, a ��computer-readable medium�� can be any means that can contain, store, communicate, propagate, or transport the program for use by or in connection with the instruction execution system, apparatus, or device. The computer readable medium can be, for example, but is not limited to, an electronic, solid-state, magnetic, optical, electromagnetic, infrared, or semiconductor system, apparatus, device, or propagation medium, either internal to the DHCT 200 or externally connected to the DHCT 200 via one or more communication ports or network interfaces. More specific examples (a non-exhaustive list) of the computer-readable medium would include the following: an electrical connection (electronic) having one or more wires, a portable computer diskette (magnetic), a hard drive storage device (magnetic), a random access memory (RAM) (solid-state device), a read-only memory (ROM) (solid-state device), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM or Flash memory) (multiple devices), an optical fiber (optical), and a portable compact disc read-only memory (CDROM) (optical). Note that the computer-readable medium could even be paper or another suitable medium upon which the program is printed, as the program can be electronically captured, via for instance optical scanning of the paper or other medium, then compiled, interpreted or otherwise processed in a suitable manner if necessary, and then stored in a computer memory.
FIG. 3 depicts a non-limiting example of a remote control device 300 that may be used to provide user input to the DHCT 200. The remote control device 300 described herein is merely illustrative and should not be construed as implying any limitations upon the scope of the present invention. Four arrow keys 310 are provided including an up arrow key 311, a down arrow key 312, a left arrow key 313, and a right arrow key 314. The arrow keys 310 can be used to scroll through on-screen options and/or to highlight an on-screen option, whereas the select key 320 may be used to select a currently highlighted option. The guide key 380 may be used to access a television program guide such as, for example, IPG screen 800 (FIG. 8). The function of the ��A�� key 371, the ��B�� key 372, and the ��C�� key 373 varies depending on the screen being presented to a user at the time of a key's activation. In one embodiment, the ��A�� key 371 can be used to access a browse-by list for requesting an IPG screen that contains a subset of service instances falling under a user selected browse-by category such as, for example, comedy, drama, action/adventure, sports, etc.; the ��B�� key 372 can be used to request an IPG screen containing service listings for a user selected date; and the ��C�� key 373 can be used to initiate a process for customizing an IPG.
FIG. 4 depicts a non-limiting example of a user selection screen 400 that may be presented to a user by the IPG application 238 (FIG. 2) after the user turns on the DHCT 200 and/or after the user requests an IPG. A user may request an IPG by, for example, activating the Guide key 380 (FIG. 3). The user selection screen 400 has a user selection list 401 that includes one or more options for identifying the user. In the current example, the user selection list 401 includes the following options: ��Add New User�� 402, ��Guest�� 403, and ��Jane�� 404. The Add New User option 402 may be used to create a new profile for a user. The Guest option 403 may be used to avoid specifically identifying the user. The Jane option 404 corresponds to a previously created user profile. A user profile may be stored in, for example, the user preference database 261 (FIG. 2).
FIG. 5 depicts a non-limiting example of a name entry screen 500 that may be presented to a user by the IPG application 238 (FIG. 2) after the user selects the Add New User option 402 (FIG. 4). The name entry screen 500 includes name entry fields 501 that may be used to enter a user name. In one implementation, a user may enter a user name by using the left and right arrow keys 313 and 314 (FIG. 3) to highlight a desired entry field, and the up and down arrow keys 311 and 312 (FIG. 3) to scroll to a desired character in the highlighted entry field. In another implementation, another input device such as, for example, a keyboard may be used to input a user name. After the user has entered a desired user name, the user may activate the ��A�� key 371 (FIG. 3) to proceed to a subsequent screen.
Though other implementations are contemplated within the scope of the present invention, when the IPG application is first activated by the user, the lowest numbered television functionality is typically centered in the functionality identification area 880. In this non-limiting example, the lowest numbered television functionality in the functionality identification area 880 is ABC (channel number 2). Continuing with this non-limiting example, the left-most time column in the main listing display area 860 includes titles of functionality instance listings scheduled to be available about two hours into the future with the middle title in the column being highlighted and corresponding to the lowest numbered television functionality. Therefore, in this example, the Good Morning America listing 820, which is scheduled to be provided via ABC (channel number 2), is highlighted. It should be noted that the current functionality instance listing shown in video area 830 and referenced in information banner 840, corresponds to the currently tuned television channel (channel number 5), and not to the channel corresponding to the currently highlighted functionality instance listing 820. The bottom area 850 of IPG screen 800 indicates the selected day for which functionality instance listing data is being displayed as well as information about the current functions of the ��A��, ��B��, and ��C�� keys on the remote control 300. In an alternative embodiment, an IPG screen may have fewer, additional, and/or different components and may have a different layout. For example, an IPG screen might not include a detailed focus area 810, a video area 830, an information banner 840, and/or a bottom area 850.
FIG. 9 depicts a non-limiting example of a customization options screen 900 that may be presented by the IPG application 238 (FIG. 2). The customization options screen may be presented to a user in response to the activation of the ��C�� key 373 (FIG. 3) during the presentation of the IPG screen 800 (FIG. 8). The customization options screen 900 has a customization options list 901 that includes one or more options for modifying the content or layout of an IPG screen. In the current example, the customization options list 901 includes the following options: an ��Edit Layout�� option 902, a ��Home Network�� option 903, and a ��Filter Listings�� option 904. The ��Edit Layout�� option 902 may be selected in order to edit the layout of an IPG screen. The ��Home Network�� option 903 may be selected in order to add functionality instance listings corresponding to a device located at a customer premises 120 (FIG. 1). The ��Filter Listings�� option 904 may be selected to limit the listings provided via an IPG based on user determined settings.
FIG. 10 depicts a non-limiting example of a Home Network Options screen 1000 that may be presented by the IPG application 238 (FIG. 2) to a user after the user selects the ��Home Network�� option 903 via the customization options screen 900 (FIG. 9). The Home Network Options screen 1000 has a home network options list 1001 that includes one or more options for modifying the content or layout of an IPG screen. In the current example, the home network options list 1001 includes the following options: ��Email on Jane's PC�� option 1002, ��Calendar on Jane's PC�� option 1003, ��GE Alarm Clock�� option 1004, ��Home Thermostat�� option 1005, and ��Movies on Jane's PC�� option 1006. The ��Email on Jane's PC�� option 1002 corresponds to a functionality that allows access to e-mail messages via a local computer. The ��Calendar on Jane's PC�� option 1003 corresponds to a functionality that allows access to an electronic calendar via a local computer. The ��GE Alarm Clock�� option 1004 corresponds to a functionality provided by a local alarm clock. The ��Home Thermostat�� option 1005 corresponds to a functionality provided by the a local thermostat. The ��Movies on Jane's PC�� option 1006 corresponds to movies or portions thereof that are accessible via a local computer.
Each of the options 1002-1006 corresponds to a functionality that is offered by a local device that is capable of communicating with the DHCT 200 (FIG. 1). Information displayed via the Home Network Options screen 1000 may be retrieved from IPG database 240 where it may have been stored by the HNCA 260 upon being received by the DHCT 200 from a local device 150. Such information may be received from a local device 150 in response to a query by the HNCA 260 or may be periodically broadcast by the local device 150 over a home network to which the local device 150 and DHCT 200 are coupled. As used herein, the term ��local,�� when used in reference to a device or apparatus, means located at the same customer premises as the DHCT 200. A user may select an option from the options list 1001 in order to request that the functionality identified by the selected option be listed in an IPG. An option that is selected by a user is identified as having been selected via, for example, a distinctive icon and/or background color. In one embodiment a selected option is identified via a check mark icon that is displayed in the same field as the selected option, as illustrated in the example shown in FIG. 11.
In one embodiment of the invention, the functionalities that are listed via the Home Network Options screen 1000 are customized based on the specific user that is currently signed-in for the DHCT 200. Therefore, in the current example, the Home Network Options screen 1000 is presented to a person who is signed-in using the user name ��Jane.��
FIG. 11 depicts a non-limiting example of a Home Network Options screen 1100 that may be presented to a user after the user selects options 1002-1006 via the Home Network Options screen 1000 depicted in FIG. 10. Each of the options 1002-1006 is identified as having been selected via a check mark icon 1102 that is displayed in the same field as the option. A user may un-select a selected option by highlighting the option using an arrow key 310 (FIG. 3) and by activating the select key 320 while the option is highlighted. After the user has completed his selections from the Home Network Options screen 1100, the user may confirm the selections via, for example, the ��A�� key 371 (FIG. 3). The selections made by the user are stored in a user preference database 261 (FIG. 2) and are used by the IPG application 238 (FIG. 2) in determining whether a functionality is to be listed in an IPG.
FIG. 12 depicts a non-limiting example of an IPG grid 1200 that may be presented to a user after the user confirms the selection made via the Home Network Options screen 1100 (FIG. 11). The IPG grid 1200 may be presented as part of an IPG that includes additional components as illustrated, for example, in FIG. 8. IPG grid 1200 identifies PC functionalities 1201 and 1211 that are available via a local computer. Functionality instance listings that correspond to the ��PC Calendar�� functionality 1201 (which has an assigned channel number 254) include, in this example, ��Wake Up�� 1202, ��Check E-mail�� 1203, and ��Office Meeting�� 1204. Functionality instance listings that correspond to the ��PC Movies�� functionality 1211 (channel 255) include, in this example, ��Parent Trap�� 1212, ��Groundhog Day�� 1213, and ��You've Got Mail�� 1214. The PC Calendar functionality instance listings 1202-1204 correspond to entries in an electronic calendar contained in a local PC. Similarly, the PC Movies functionality instance listings 1212-1214 correspond to movies that are available via a local PC.
FIG. 13 depicts a non-limiting example of an IPG grid 1300 that may be presented to a user after the user scrolls up the IPG grid 1200 (FIG. 12). A user may scroll up an IPG grid by activating, for example, the up arrow key 311 (FIG. 3). In this example, the functionality listings ��Thermostat�� 1301, ��Alarm Clock�� 1311, and ��PC E-mail�� 1321 are included in the IPG grid 1300. In the current example, functionality instance listings that correspond to the Thermostat functionality 1301 include ��65�X F.�� 1302 and ��70�X F.�� 1303; functionality instance listings that correspond to the Alarm Clock functionality 1311 include ��Play 98.5 FM�� 1312 and ��Off�� 1313; and functionality instance listings that correspond to the PC E-mail functionality 1321 include ��james@yahoo.com�� 1322, ��john@aol.com�� 1323, and ��mike@hotmail.com�� 1324. The thermostat functionality instance listings 1302 and 1303 identify the temperature settings that a local thermostat is scheduled to have during half-hour time periods beginning at 7:00 a.m. and 7:30 a.m., respectively. Similarly, the alarm clock functionality instance listings 1312 and 1313 identify the alarm clock settings for the half-hour time periods beginning and 7:00 a.m. and 7:30 a.m., respectively. The PC E-mail functionality instance listings 1322-1324 identify e-mail addresses of respective senders of e-mail messages that are available via a local device 150. The PC E-mail functionality instance listings 1322-1324 do not have time characteristics that are represented by the time entries in the time area 870. Therefore, in one embodiment, time entries in the time area 870 are not displayed when one of the functionality instance listings 1322-1324 is highlighted.
FIG. 14 depicts a non-limiting example of a thermostat settings screen 1400 that may be presented to a user in response to a user selecting the functionality instance listing 1302 while being presented with the IPG grid 1300 (FIG. 13). The thermostat settings screen 1400 includes a temperature setting field 1401 and time settings fields 1402 and 1403. The temperature setting field 1401 may be used to specify a temperature setting for a local thermostat, whereas the time settings fields 1402 and 1403 may be used to specify a beginning and end, respectively, of a time window during which the temperature setting is to be in effect. After the desired thermostat settings are selected by a user, the user may then confirm the setting by activating, for example, the ��A�� key 371 (FIG. 3). After the thermostat settings are confirmed by a user, they are communicated by the DHCT 200 to the local thermostat using a suitable messaging protocol. The local thermostat, implements the settings upon receiving them from the DHCT 200. A user may also be able to modify settings pertaining to other functionalities such as, for example, the alarm clock functionality 1311, by selecting a corresponding functionality instance listing.
