Abstract
The present invention may be regarded as a method of permitting a viewer to view alternative subject matter data (e.g., an advertisement) on a display while receiving streaming video data without loss of the streaming video data. The method receives streaming video data and displays the streaming video data as a program of a first content. Upon selection by a viewer of the alternative subject matter data, the method stores the streaming video data on a personal video recorder. When the viewer selects returning to viewing of the streaming video data on the display, the method displays the streaming video data stored on the personal video recorder on the display while continuing to store incoming streaming video data on the personal video recorder. This method allows a viewer with 'one click' to select and view the alternative subject matter data and with 'one click' to return to the first content where it was left.
