Abstract:
Apparatus and method for improving the bandwidth efficiency of delivering electronic program guide (EPG) data to consumer premises equipment (CPE). In one exemplary embodiment, electronic guide data is rendered by devices away from the CPE, shifting the executing data- and bandwidth-heavy operations away from the CPE. In particular, one or more gateways at the user's home bears the processing, memory, bandwidth load to reduce the inefficiency of delivering redundant information to CPE(s) interfacing with the gateway(s). Using guide data it receives from the cloud, the gateway produces and delivers to the CPE one or more “simple views” of the guide data, including a video stream, still image, or simple HTML or other renderable formats. As the end user interacts with the CPE, the user receives a series of the simple views, allowing the rich experience that is typically given by EPG rendered directly by the CPE.

Claim (Index 35):
A computerized gateway apparatus for delivering electronic program guide (EPG) data over a content delivery network, the computerized gateway apparatus comprising:\n a first data interface configured for data communication with at least one computerized server device, the computerized server device comprising a plurality of guide data; a second data interface configured for data communication with at least one computerized client device; processor apparatus in data communication with the first and second data interfaces; and a non-transitory storage apparatus in data communication with the processor apparatus and comprising a storage medium having a computer program thereon, the computer program comprising a plurality of instructions configured to, when executed by the processor apparatus, cause the computerized gateway device to:\n receive the plurality of guide data from the at least one computerized server device; \n pre-process at least a first portion of the received plurality of guide data into a first representation of the received plurality of guide data based on one or more capabilities associated with the at least one computerized client device; \n transmit the first representation of the received plurality of guide data to the at least one computerized client device for display thereon; and \n based at least in part on data relating to a command subsequently received via the at least one computerized client device, pre-process at least a second portion of the received plurality of guide data into an updated version of the first representation; and \n cause delivery of the updated version to the at least one computerized client device for display thereon.
