摘要： A method, apparatus and system are provided for the automatic replacement of potentially objectionable audio content from an audio signal in real time. In one embodiment of the present invention, the selective filtering of objectionable audio content from an audio signal is accomplished by first marking objectionable audio content in the audio signal with filtering information that identifies the type of objectionable audio content (e.g., crude language, ethnic and racial slurs, cursing, strong profanity) and storing the filtering information and the corresponding location of the objectionable audio content for that particular audio signal. Objectionable audio content having filtering information corresponding to a stored replacement content code determined from a predetermined replacement setting is then automatically replaced with an audio clip corresponding to the replacement setting.

摘要： A method and a system for performing trick mode features in a personal video recorder without introducing a channel change delay during normal viewing. The method includes the steps of recording a video source signal (202) and concurrently bypassing the video source signal (204) to a display device, without experiencing any buffering delay associated with the recording step (202). During trick mode operation the bypassing step can be automatically terminated and a recorded version of the video source signal can be substituted (208) and sent to the display. The bypassing step further can include substituting, without any buffering delay, an alternate video source signal (230) in response to a user selection of an alternate video source signal channel. A user notification can be generated to acknowledge receipt of a trick mode command (210). The user notification can be terminated once the step of substituting the recorded version of the video source signal has been completed.

摘要： An apparatus and method is presented for receiving (128) and displaying (116) user messages associated with multimedia content. Specifically, the present invention is directed to controlling the operation of a television recording/playback system to permit a user to input a message (128), associate that message with a selected television program (130), and display the associated message (116, 120, 132) when the selected television program is accessed by another user (see FIG. 1). The apparatus of the present invention is directed to a system (600) for managing multimedia content including devices (602) for storing television programs and associating with those programs user-generated messages for display to other system users. In this way, the present invention provides content management tools that promote sharing by all users, ease the process of establishing a consensus for managing limited resources, and encourage monitoring by the administrator.
