Abstract:
A device uses received electronic program guide data to present an electronic program guide in a display of the device. The displayed electronic program guide includes at least one selectable user interface element corresponding to the at least one currently available media, e.g., a currently airing television program, and at least one user interface element corresponding to at least one yet-to-be available media, e.g., a future airing television program. When a user selects the at least one user interface element corresponding to the at least one currently available media the portable electronic device is caused to issue one or more commands to cause at least one controllable device to access the currently available media. When a user selects the at least one user interface element corresponding to the at least one yet-to be available media data related to the yet-to-be available media is transferred to a calendar application resident on the portable electronic device.
