Abstract

A television receiver, comprising a television signal input, a tuner, a frame buffer, a control input, a pattern recognition unit, and an electronic program guide unit. In operation, the television signal input receives a television signal. The tuner generates consecutive frames of a selected television channel on the basis of the television signal and is connected to a screen so as to drive the screen to display the frames consecutively. The frame buffer buffers the frames. The control input receives a scheduling request triggered by a user. The pattern recognition unit determines one or more program schedule values in response to the scheduling request, by performing an automatic pattern recognition analysis of one or more frames residing in the frame buffer. The electronic program guide unit provides program schedule information and updates the program schedule.
