Abstract

L'invention concerne un guide électronique de contenu, comprenant de préférence un champ de source permettant de répertorier les sources de contenu et les dispositifs de sortie, ainsi qu'un premier champ de contenu permettant de répertorier des données de programmation correspondant à des premières données de contenu disponibles actuellement pour une visualisation à partir de chacune des sources de contenu et permettant de répertorier des informations d'affichage correspondant aux premières données de contenu affichées pour être visualisées au moment présent sur chacun des dispositifs de sortie. De préférence, le champ de source et le premier champ de contenu peuvent être affichés dans des colonnes parallèles. Ce guide électronique de contenu peut comprendre également un second champ de contenu, pouvant être affiché dans une colonne parallèle au champ de source et au premier champ de contenu, ce second champ de contenu correspondant à des secondes données de contenu. Dans un mode de réalisation, les premières données de contenu de chaque source de contenu peuvent être affichées simultanément sur plusieurs dispositifs de sortie.
