Embodiment Construction

[0073] The invention relates to a remote controller system, which can control the display of a first media program on a first screen of a television. The remote control system includes a remote control, a media source, and at least one communication path. The remote control has a second screen and a user interface through which user input corresponding to selection of the first media program is received. The remote control causes the second screen to display the first media program in response to the received input. The remote controller also sends a first control signal in response to user input, so that the first screen also displays the first media program.

[0074] For example, the media source may be a set-top box, server, media player, or personal video recorder. In some configurations, the media source sends video of the first media program for display on the first and second screens. The first and second videos can be customized for the first and second screens resp...

Abstract

A remote control with a built-in miniature television screen and sound system manages settings and display of media on an associated television screen. The remote control's user interface permits media guide perusal and channel selection for display on both of the main and miniature television screens. Media guides can be downloaded per request to, or cached within, the remote control for display on the miniature screen. The remote control supports media swapping between the main and miniature television screens and associated sound systems. The sound system of the remote control includes built in speakers and external wired and wireless headphone support. Media and media guides may be located and downloaded from Internet servers via a web browser and associated search engine tailored for remote control usage. Transcoding functionality is employed at various network nodes, such as a set top box, remote control, an intranet or Internet linked device, and television.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the control of the selection and transmission of broadcast video signals, and more particularly to the interaction of remote controls with televisions, set-top boxes, and other video sources. Background technique [0002] A typical remote control device (or "remote control" as used herein) has a series of preset buttons that, when selected, immediately interact with the corresponding TV (television) to perform a series of tasks, such as changing channels , adjust TV settings, and control TV power. This direct interaction usually involves a one-way infrared transmission from the remote control to the TV, but can also include radio frequency transmissions. [0003] The TV manages control functions by displaying selected channels, status or information and / or a visual user interface on the TV screen in response to transmissions received from the remote control. When the TV screen receives the visual user interface, the u...
