Remote control device with programming guide information
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a remote control device from a television, a first subset of programming guide information;
outputting, by the remote control device for display, a first user interface including at least some of the first subset of the programming guide information;
determining, based on the first subset of programming guide information, a second subset of the programming guide information, wherein each program in the second subset of the programming guide information is related by subject to one or more programs within the first subset of programming guide information;
receiving, based on determining the second subset, by the remote control device from the television, the second subset of the programming guide information;
receiving, by the remote control device after outputting the first user interface, an indication of input; and
responsive to the indication of input, outputting, by the remote control device for display, a second user interface including at least some of the second subset of the programming guide information.

Abstract
A remote control device comprising: a display, at least one processor, and a storage device. The storage device stores instructions that when executed cause the at least one processor to: receive, from a television, a first subset of programming guide information, output, for display, a first user interface including at least some of the first subset of the programming guide information, receive, after outputting the first user interface, an indication of input, determine, based on the indication of input, a second subset of the programming guide information, receive, from the television, the second subset of the programming guide information, and output, for display, a second user interface including at least some of the second subset of the programming guide information.

7. A remote control device comprising:
-
a display; at least one processor; and a storage device that stores instructions that when executed cause the at least one processor to; receive, from a television, a first subset of programming guide information; output, for display, a first user interface including at least some of the first subset of the programming guide information; determine, based on the first subset of programming guide information, a second subset of the programming guide information, wherein each program in the second subset of the programming guide information is related by subject to one or more programs within the first subset of programming guide information; receive, from the television, based on determining the second subset, the second subset of the programming guide information; receive, after outputting the first user interface, an indication of input; and responsive to the indication of input, output, for display, a second user interface including at least some of the second subset of the programming guide information. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A system comprising:
-
a television comprising a storage device on which programming guide information is stored; and a remote control device capable of communicating with the television, wherein the remote control device includes at least one processor programmed to; receive, from the television, a first subset of the programming guide information; output, for display, a first user interface including at least some of the first subset of the programming guide information; determine, based on the first subset of programming guide information, a second subset of the programming guide information, wherein each program in the second subset of the programming guide information is related by subject to one or more programs within the first subset of programming guide information, receive, from the television, based on determining the second subset, the second subset of the programming guide information, receive, after outputting the first user interface, an indication of input, and responsive to the indication of input, output, for display, a second user interface including at least some of the second subset of the programming guide information. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)

16. A television comprising:
-
a display; at least one processor; and one or more storage devices on which programming guide information and instructions are stored, wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the at least one processor to; send, to a remote control device, a first subset of the programming guide information; determine, based on the first subset of programming guide information, a second subset of the programming guide information, wherein each program in the second subset of the programming guide information is related by subject to one or more programs within the first subset of programming guide information; and send, to the remote control device and based on determining the second subset, for display, the second subset of the programming guide information. - View Dependent Claims (17)
