摘要： Systems and methods are disclosed for providing an interactive television system for recording television programming. The interactive television system may include components for providing personal video recorder (PVR) functionality, such as an interactive television program guide (IPG), PVR extensions, PVR application programming interfaces (APIs), a PVR device, any suitable hardware or software, or a combination thereof. These components may be implemented in, for example, an arrangement having an integrated PVR-compliant device with a PVR device, or in an arrangement having a PVR-compliant device (e.g., a set-top box) coupled to PVR equipment (e.g., a remote PVR server or a PVR sidecar) with a PVR device. The PVR-compliant device may include software and hardware configured to implement the IPG. The PVR APIs may be a library of intelligent vendor-specific and vendor-independent APIs able to determine the type of PVR device being used. The PVR extensions and PVR APIs may be configured to provide a seamless integration of functionality associated with the PVR-compliant device and the PVR device. A full port of the IPG may be implemented in both the PVR-compliant device and the PVR device.
摘要翻译：公开了用于提供用于记录电视节目的交互式电视系统的系统和方法。交互式电视系统可以包括用于提供个人录像机（PVR）功能的组件，例如交互式电视节目指南（IPG），PVR扩展，PVR应用程序接口（API），PVR设备，任何合适的硬件或软件，或其组合。这些组件可以在例如具有与PVR设备的集成的PVR兼容设备的布置中实现，或者在具有耦合到PVR设备的PVR兼容设备（例如，机顶盒）的布置中实现（例如，一个远程PVR服务器或一个PVR sidecar）与PVR设备。符合PVR的设备可以包括被配置为实现IPG的软件和硬件。 PVR API可以是智能供应商特定的和供应商独立的API的库，可以确定正在使用的PVR设备的类型。 PVR扩展和PVR API可以被配置为提供与PVR兼容设备和PVR设备相关联的功能的无缝集成。 IPG的完整端口可以在PVR兼容设备和PVR设备中实现。
