Abstract: In a method for sorting and storing stations in a television or radio broadcasting set, the received stations are firstly represented in an arbitrary order in a matrixlike list or table on a display device. An input field into which a user inputs a program location number is represented for each station. The input may be effected by directly inputting one or more numerals, or be selecting a number from a list of available program location numbers. Selection fields whose selection brings about a deletion of the respective station or a shift to the end of the list may additionally be represented. Once the input or selection fields have been filled in or selected, the stations are sorted in accordance with the inputs. The sorted list is then stored.

Abstract: In the context of recording program contributions, in particular television transmissions, it is frequently undesirable for the advertising blocks broadcast during the transmission also to be recorded and displayed in the event of subsequent reproduction. The invention is concerned with the problem of reliably suppressing such advertising blocks in the event of subsequent reproduction. To that end, it proposes firstly recording the transmission including the broadcast advertising blocks and then carrying out a search during which the beginning and the end of the advertising blocks (WU1–WU3) are marked.
