Abstract

Methods, interfaces, and devices for navigating locations previously accessed by an end user device such as a set top box. A history menu with menu items is provided with the menu items referencing the last locations accessed by the end user device. The end user can therefore choose any one of the previously accessed locations and, upon activation of the menu items, the location referenced by the menu item is accessed. Each location accessed by the end user device creates or modifies a record that notes details relating to how that location is accessed. The mode of the end user device, the address or channel for the location, and any related or required software is noted in the record along with a short but useful description of the location. Each record is referenced by one of the menu items and, upon activation of the menu item, the record is retrieved. The end user device then uses the details in the record the record is retrieved. The end user device then uses the details in the record to access the desired location.
