1. A method for operating a media center rendering a media object comprising the steps of:
- enabling a first mode of operation for rendering the media object;
operating the media center in accordance with parameters corresponding to the first mode of operation within a duration of time associated with the operation of the first mode;
enabling a second mode of operation for rending the media object;
operating the media center in accordance with parameters corresponding to the second mode of operation within a duration of time association with the operation of the second mode, wherein one of the parameters used for rendering the media object is changed from the first mode of operation to the second mode of operation.

Abstract
A method is disclosed for the operation of a media center in two different modes of operation, each mode is used for rendering a media object. A first mode is enabled, where a media object is rendered in conformance with parameters within a time duration defined for the operation of the first mode. A second mode is later enabled for rendering a media object, where the rendering of the media object is in conformance with parameters within time duration defined for the second mode.

9. A method of enabling a media object designated as an alarm for rendering by a media center, comprising the steps of:
-
determining a duration of time from a pre selected time setting, wherein the time setting comprising a start time and a ending time;
rendering the alarm from information related to an emergency situation, wherein the rendering step is controlled by parameters that are related to the duration of time where such parameters are active when a local time is within the start time and the ending time of the duration of time. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

13. A method of rending alarms for a media center comprising the steps of:
-
specifying a type of alert to be rendered by a media center, wherein type of alert corresponds to a hierarchical level of alerts;
determining a first parameter controlling the rendering of the alert;
defining a first duration of time for the activation of the alert;
determining a second parameter controlling the rendering of the alert;
defining a second duration of time for the activation of the alert;
wherein the alert is rendered with the first parameter during the first duration of time, and the alert is rendered with the second parameter during the second duration of time when a local time changes from matching the first duration of time to the second duration of time; and
the alert corresponds to the level of alerts selected during the specifying step. - View Dependent Claims (14)
