Abstract: The invention relates to a method for navigating in a list of items in an audiovisual receiver including a first step for generating an ordered list of items available in the receiver, a step for displaying a first sub-list extracted from the list including a first item highlighted at one end of the displayed sub-list. The method also includes a step for identifying a second item adjacent to the first item not appearing in the first sub-list, and a step for displaying a second sub-list including at least the first item and the second highlighted item. In one improvement to the present invention, the displayed items are digital television service identifiers. In one variant, these items are identifiers of events broadcast by a television network. The invention also relates to the receiver capable of selecting the services according to the method.

Abstract: The invention enables selecting items from a list, as well as functions associated with these items and with the list in general. Each item is identified by an icon displayed in a series of icons. A first means of receiving commands enables the item to be selected and a second means of receiving commands enables it to be activated. The series of icons comprises at least one additional icon. The user selects this additional icon, then at the end of a certain time a sub-menu appears presenting all the functions selectable via the second means of receiving commands. With the second means of reception, the user can execute functions that apply to the list of items and no longer to a single item. The invention also relates to a device capable of executing the method of selection and executing an item and a function.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of reproducing audio or audiovisual documents divided into sequences and recorded in a device. During reproduction, the document is read from its recording medium. The audio or audiovisual content of the no impaired sequences is fully recorded (2.5) but not that of the impaired sequences which are represented by an identifier and a duration. Then, the recorded sequences are reproduced and a graphics menu representing the content of the document is displayed. The menu indicates the location of the impaired sequences with respect to the no impaired sequences and the duration of the impaired sequences. According to an improvement, an index moves on the graphics menu and the moment of reproduction. The invention also relates to a device able to implement the method of reproduction.
