Abstract

See full text

Video receiving method and apparatus, are responsive to requests from a selector unit (240), for identifying channels (1 through n), in a transmitter system (204), containing video signals to be sent from the transmitter system (204) to one or more receiver systems (202). The receiving method includes steps of having the receiver system (202) select (94) one or more channels. The receiver system generates (90) signals identificative of the selected channels, and sends (29) the channel identifying signals to the transmitter system (204). The transmitter system uses the channel identifying signals to selectively identify the channels to be transmitted to the receiver system (202). The transmitter system compresses (17, 19, 21) and multiplexes (25) the signals of the channels selected by the receiver system (202). The receiver system (202) receives (75) the compressed and multiplexed signals, and stores (35, 37, 39) the received signals.
