Abstract
A personal recorder/playback system () includes a recording agent () configured to transparently receive multiple audio/visual streams from analog and/or digital sources. The streams are temporarily stored in queues () for subsequent analysis. The streams, after analysis, are either discarded, stored permanently in an audio/visual collection (), or used to improve the quality of previously stored streams in the collection. The recording agent () provides features such as virtual channels () and a 'top-ten' list () of most popular stored audio/visual streams.
