METHOD FOR PROVIDING MULTICAST SERVICES
First Claim
1. A method for providing a service guide in a network providing a plurality of multicast services, said network comprising at least one client device connected to a first device, wherein a subset of said plurality of multicast services is being multicast to said at least one client device via said first device, and the service guide provides a list of the plurality of multicast services in a second order, wherein, at the side of a client device, it comprises the steps ofdetermining a list of the plurality of multicast services in a first order, wherein the order is changed from the second order to the first order based on the multicast services of the subset;
- andpresenting said list of multicast services in said first order.

Abstract
It is provided a method for providing a service guide in a network providing a plurality of multicast services, said network comprising at least one client device connected to an intermediate a first device, wherein a subset of said plurality of multicast services is being multicast to said at least one client device via said intermediate first device, and the service guide provides a list of the plurality of multicast services in a second order; and at the side of a client device, the method comprises the steps of determining a list of the plurality of multicast services in a first order, wherein the order is changed from the second order to the first order based on the multicast services of the subset; and presenting said list of multicast services in said first order.

14. An apparatus for providing a service guide in a network providing a plurality of multicast services, wherein, said apparatus connects to a first device and the service guide provides a list of the plurality of multicast services in a second order, wherein the apparatus comprises
a receiver configured to receive the list of the plurality of multicast services in the second order; - and
a rendering module configured to present a list of the plurality of multicast services in a first order, wherein, the order is changed from the second order to the first order based on one or more multicast services that is being multicasted by the first device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)
