  • Method for the management of a decoder connected to the internet, and associated decoder
    Publication number: 20010054182
    Abstract: To enable a user of a television set connected to a decoder having access to a remote data source to access preferred messages for display at high speed, these messages are stored in a back-up memory of the decoder and updated at predetermined dates, or even occasionally. Thus a mini-Internet is created in the decoder, but it is a network that is regularly updated. Thus the time needed to access the message for display is reduced to the time needed to access the back-up memory in the decoder.
