Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for Video-on-demand (VOD) satisfying the desire of 'surfers'. The process entails a server operating in a standard Near-Video-on-demand (NVOD) mode, whereby it repeatedly transmits multiple copies of each program on separate channels. Each copy is delayed by a stagg eredtime interval. The server also repeatedly transmits a beginning portion of each NVOD program of a duration up to the staggered time interval. The invention provides a way to fulfill a VOD user requests asynchronous with the start of a NVOD transmission but which still makes primary use of the NVOD transmission for thatrequestor. The invention further advantageously prov ides fixed asset utilization in a predictable manner.

Abstract: A system and method for Video-on-Demand (VOD) satisfying the desire of 'surfers'. The process entails a server operating in a standard NVOD mode, w hereby it continuously sends multiple copies of each program on separate channels. Eachcopy is delayed by a staggered time interval. The in vention provides a way to fulfill a VOD user request asynchronous with the start of a NVOD transmission but wh ich still makes primary use of the NVOD transmission for that requestor. The sys tem and method combines independent server service satisfying an asynchronous reques t for only a short duration, usually less than or equal to the NVOD staggered time interval, and then aligns that requestor with an immediately previously commenced NVOD transmission.
