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 media center operates in two modes where each mode is used for rendering a media object. When a first mode is enabled, 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, the rendering of the media object is in conformance with parameters within time duration defined for the second mode.

9. 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 (10)

11. A method for operating a media center with a media object comprising the steps of:
-
enabling a first mode of operation for generating a first signal comprising 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 generating a second signal comprising 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 generating the first and second signals comprising the media object is changed from the first mode of operation to the second mode of operation. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
