Definitions
- the present invention describes a method of program recording in a program recording system, which method comprises the steps of collecting a recording schedule or specification of a program to be recorded for a first user, collecting user identity and privacy settings for the first user, and concealing from a second user the user identity and/or elements of the recording schedule of the first user according to the privacy settings of the first user.
- An appropriate system for program recording comprises an information collection unit for collecting a recording schedule, user identity and privacy settings, and a control unit for controlling the system according to the privacy settings such that the user identity and/or elements of the recording schedule of the first user are concealed from a second user.
- the present invention thus allows a user to schedule a recording in a program recording system used by several users, while at the same time maintaining his own privacy.
- the user can enjoy complete privacy or can choose which information regarding his user identification or recording schedule is to be revealed to other users of the system.
- the information regarding user identification, recording schedule and privacy settings can be entered by the user by means of a suitable user interface. Therefore, the information collection unit can comprise one or more user interfaces, such as a computer keyboard, television remote control, etc. Alternatively, some or all of this information can be stored by the user in a user profile, and saved, for example, as a data file on a hard disk. The system can access this data at a later time or when instructed to do so by the user. Preferably, at least the privacy settings, for example default privacy settings, are read from a user profile.
- the recording priority determines what recording schedule will be accepted, whilst the privacy settings will determine what information will be revealed to the second user in the event of a recording conflict.
- a recording schedule which has been terminated due to a recording conflict may be automatically rescheduled at a later time, while maintaining the privacy settings originally specified by the first user.
- the program recording system may have access to an electronic program guide, which it can scan to determine whether the program originally scheduled for recording will be broadcast at a later date. This feature might take effect automatically, or might be specified as an option in the information supplied by the user, for example as an entry in the user profile.
- the program recording system comprises the usual components of a recording system, such as receiver, tuner, recording unit, storage medium, display etc.
- the program recording system comprises a concealment level determination unit for determining a level of concealment of information pertaining to a first user. This concealment level determination unit interprets the information entered by the user to determine which elements of the information may be revealed to other users.
- the program recording system also preferably comprises a recording priority determination unit, for determining the priority accorded to the current recording schedule, as described above.
- the storage medium of the program recording system might be one or more hard disk drives or DVD (digital versatile disc) drives. Furthermore, such a system may comprise one or more displays.
