Abstract: The invention relates to the provision of an internet capability as a function of a broadcast data receiver included in or connected to a display screen as part of a television set. The display screen of the television set is used to display a series of user selected internet window display but can only display one internet window at a time, typically of a page from a website, at a time. However several window displays can be open and available for user selection for display at any time. In accordance with the invention an information display is generated and displayed on screen which allows information identifying each of the display windows available for user selection to be shown to the user and, in one embodiment, selected from the display screen using the broadcast data receiver remote control facility.

Abstract: The invention relates to the generation of a display on a display screen, such as that of a television set. The display includes an internet web page, selected for display by a user. The web page includes a display window for a video display generated from video data. The web page and video data are received by a broadcast data receiver connected to the display screen. In accordance with the invention the display window is provided of a predetermined size which is compared with the size of the video display to be shown at that time. If the video display will not fit into the display window, newly set dimensions are generated for the display window thereby allowing the video display to be shown in its entirety and without the need for cropping or any other editing features to be performed.

Abstract: The invention which is the subject of this application is to provide for the dynamic adjustment of the display of a graphic display on a display screen, such as that of a television set. Typically, the display screen shows a video display such as that of a television programme generated from received video data such as via a broadcast data receiver, DVD, VCR or the like. On occasion and typically in response to a user selection a graphic display can be generated and overlaid on the video display to provide information to the user. Changes in the video display to take into account different video display formats and/or the particular format of the display screen can cause the graphic display to be unacceptable but this is avoided in the current invention which allows the graphic display to be altered with respect to the format such that it is visible and in a preferred form.

Abstract: A broadcast data receiver (BDR) is provided and a method of using the BDR for the production of a pseudo stable reference control for the reliable generation of composite video signals. The BDR receives video, audio and/or auxiliary data from a broadcaster can stored a part of all of the data in storage means, typically in the form of a hard disk drive. When the BDR is deriving video data from the hard disk due to the BDR being disconnected from the signal feed from the broadcaster, the BDR uses a pseudo stable reference produced by deriving one or more values from stable frequency information embedded in incoming data. The pseudo stable reference is used to control the frequency of a VCXO in the BDR, thereby allowing accurate color sub-carrier frequency generation for the generation of a final video output. The one or more values can be average stable reference control values extracted from the incoming data or the one or more values can be derived from locking the frequency of the VCXO to an off air incoming data stream.
