Abstract

An electronic device for controlling the broadcasting of digital audio and/or video streams that includes: a module for receiving a list of upcoming streams able to be broadcast; a module for acquiring a set of profile(s) of a group of user(s); a module for detecting, among the received list and based on the acquired set, a preferred digital stream intended to be broadcast after a current digital stream; and a module for switching from a broadcast of the current stream to a broadcast of the preferred stream. The detection module is configured to detect an event triggering a switch to the preferred stream, and the switching module is configured to operate at least according to an automatic mode, where it is able to switch from the broadcasting of the current stream to that of the preferred stream upon the detection of the triggering event.
