Abstract
The present invention relates to transmission of signals (S) to a plurality of subscriber receivers (110), where each signal (S) represents a type of information which belongs to a particular contents category. A central management server (100) receives administrative instructions (Iadm1, Iadm2, Iadm3) pertaining to the transmission of the signals (S). In response to the administrative instructions (Iadm1, Iadm2, Iadm3), the central management server (100) organizes and synchronizes signals (s1a, s1b, s2a, s2b, s1, s2, s3, s4, C) originating from one or more signal sources (120, 141, 142, 143, 144, 151a-b, 152a-b) before these signals are transmitted to the subscriber receivers (110). At least one client computer (151, 152, 153) each has an interface towards the central management server (100). Thus, the client computer(s) (151, 152, 153) may produce administrative instructions (Iadm1, Iadm2, Iadm3) for organizing a sub-set of the signals (S) to be transmitted via the central management server (100).
