Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 2 A device according to a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown. figure 2 Only the device itself is shown, and objects external to the device in FIG. 1 are not shown. However, for convenience, figure 2 The same reference numerals are used. Additionally, internal connections are not shown in the figures for clarity.

[0023] The device (in this example, the tuner 230) comprises at least a first interface (I / O1) 231 for communicating with the access network 110 and a second interface (I / O1) 231 for communicating with the terminals 150, 155 via the intranet 140. Interface (I / O2) 232 . The tuner 230 also comprises at least one memory (hereinafter "memory") 233 and at least one processor (hereinafter "processor") 234 adapted to respond to requests from the terminals 150,155.

[0024] Assume now that the terminals 150, 155 request services from the tuner 230 in the same order as before, ie the first terminal 150 requests the first service and then the sec...

Abstract

In certain home multimedia networks having a plurality of terminals, there are no provisions for sending error messages when a service cannot be delivered owing to conflicts with another service. The present invention proposes to let the media server of the tuner (230) in such a network (120) provide an image bearing the message and deliver this image to the terminal (150, 155) that otherwise would be left in the dark.

Description
