    Abstract: The invention provides a method for searching the frequency range of a digital data receiving device, said method including the steps in one embodiment of firstly identifying and disregarding analogue carrier frequencies in the range, then proceeding to estimate the initial starting frequency for a digital carrier by dynamic real-time pre-processing of the spectrum profile and then obtaining successive samples of the frequency range from the start position for the carrier until the centre frequency for the carrier is located. In one embodiment the method includes the prediction of the centre frequency estimations of all digital carriers for respective channels in the range prior to the search commencing. The method reduces the possibility of locking to analogue carriers, and can reduce the time required to perform a search in comparison to the current digital carrier frequency "search & lock" procedure

    Abstract: A broadcast data receiver (BDR) is provided with a web browser system. A service provided by the web browser system si selectable by a user of the BDR and, when selected, is controllable by the user via a remote control handset, thereby allowing an Internet web site page for display on a display screen connected to or forming part of the BDR to be determined and one or more user options can be selected if required. One or more icons are generated on at least a portion of the display screen and each of the icons represents a button on the remote control handset. Each icon is mapped to a specific control function or option of the web browser, thereby allowing user selection of a web browser control function or option by selection of the appropriate button on the remote control handset.

    Inventor: SMITH MARK

    Abstract: The invention relates to the ability to connect items of electrical apparatus and to allow the transfer of data signals between said apparatus. In particular, the invention relates to the connection of at least three items of electrical apparatus (2,4,6) via SCART connections and, the transfer of data signals between the first and third items (2,6) of apparatus via the second item (4) of apparatus such that even if the second item (4) of apparatus is switched off from the mains power supply, a circuit in the same can still be powered via power supply provided via the SCART connection to allow the passage of the data signal between the first and third items (2,6) through the second item (4). This therefore allows savings in electricity and overcomes the need for the second item (4) of apparatus to be kept connected to a mains power supply at all times which is conventionally the case.

    Abstract: The invention relates to improvements to the operation of a broadcast data receiver (BDR) and, in particular, to the provision of a video data amplifier and driver circuit for the processing of a received video data signal. The circuit includes a means for generating at least one compensatory value and preferably a multiplication factor. The compensatory value is added to the received video data signal as it passes through the circuit to form a combined signal. The combined signal can also be multiplied. The level of the compensatory value can alter with reference to changes in the environment of the operation of the circuit so as to take into account and minimise changes affecting the operation of the circuit and on the video signal.
