Abstract
A method for selectively recording or replaying partial scenes of a broadcasting program includes the steps of: receiving a broadcasting program and a corresponding supplementary information; determining whether or not information on pre-selected scenes or user-selected scenes of the broadcasting program is contained in the supplementary information; and if so recording the pre-selected or user-selected scenes of the broadcasting program.
Claims23
A method for selectively recording a pre-selected subset of scenes of a broadcasting program, the pre-selected subset of scenes being pre-selected prior to broadcasting the broadcasting program, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving the broadcasting program and corresponding supplementary information;
- determining whether or not information on the pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcasting program is contained in the supplementary information;
- and
- if the determining step determines the information on the pre-selected subset of scenes is contained in the supplementary information,
- extracting the information on the pre-selected subset of scenes from the supplementary information,
- recording the pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcasting program based on the extracted information, and
- updating a recording history stored in the storage unit, the recording history including a recording status indicating a ratio of a partial recording of the broadcasting program.
A method for selectively playing a pre-selected subset of scenes of a broadcasting program recorded in a recording device, the pre-selected subset of scenes being pre-selected prior to broadcasting the broadcasting program, the method comprising the steps of:
- displaying on a screen a recording history of the recording device, the recording history including a list of recorded broadcasting programs, the list including recording status indicating a ratio of a partial recording of the broadcasting programs;
- selecting the broadcasting program from the list of recorded broadcasting programs in response to a user input;
- determining whether to replay an entirety of the broadcasting program or a pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcast program according to the recording history;
- extracting information on a pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcast program and corresponding supplementary information stored in a storage unit;
- and
- selectively playing the pre-selected subset of scenes based on the extracted information on the pre-selected scenes.
A device configured to selectively record a pre-selected subset of scenes of a broadcasting program, the pre-selected subset of scenes being pre-selected prior to broadcasting the broadcasting program, comprising:
- a tuner configured to receive the broadcasting program and corresponding supplementary information;
- a controller configured to
- determine whether or not information on the pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcasting program is contained in the supplementary information, and
- if the information on the pre-selected subset of scenes is determined to be contained in the supplementary information,
- extract the information on the pre-selected subset of scenes from the supplementary information, and
- record the pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcasting program based on the extracted information;
- a storage unit configured to store the pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcasting program based on the extracted information and a recording history, the recording history including a recording status indicating a ratio of a partial recording of the broadcasting program;
- and
- a display unit configured to selectively display the pre-selected subset of scenes of the stored broadcasting program based on the extracted information.
A device configured to selectively play a user-selected subset of scenes of a broadcasting program recorded in a recording device, comprising:
- a tuner configured to receive the broadcasting program and corresponding supplementary information;
- a remote control keypad configured to input a key word identifying a user-selected parameter for selecting a subset of scenes in the broadcasting program;
- a controller configured to detect user-selected scenes from the broadcasting program corresponding to the user-selected parameter;
- and
- a storage unit configured to store the user-selected scenes corresponding to the user-selected parameter and to store a recording history, the recording history including a recording status indicating a ratio of a partial recording of the broadcasting program.
A system configured to transmit, receive and selectively record a pre-selected subset of scenes of a broadcasting program, the pre-selected subset of scenes being pre-selected prior to broadcasting the broadcasting program, comprising:
- a transmitter configured to transmit the broadcasting program and corresponding supplementary information;
- and
- a receiving device configured to
- receive the broadcasting program and the corresponding supplementary information;
- determine whether or not information on the pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcasting program is contained in the supplementary information, and
- if the information on the pre-selected subset of scenes is determined to be contained in the supplementary information,
- extract the information on the pre-selected subset of scenes from the supplementary information,
- record the pre-selected subset of scenes of the broadcasting program based on the extracted information, and
- update a recording history stored in the storage unit, the recording history including a recording status indicating a ratio of a partial recording of the broadcasting program.
A method for selectively playing a user-selected subset of scenes of a broadcasting program recorded in a recording device, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving the broadcasting program and corresponding supplementary information;
- inputting a key word identifying a user-selected parameter for selecting a subset of scenes in the broadcasting program;
- detecting user-selected scenes from the broadcasting program corresponding to the user-selected parameter;
- and
- storing the user-selected scenes corresponding to the user-selected parameter and a recording history, the recording history including a recording status indicating a ratio of a partial recording of the broadcasting program.
