ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for editing broadcast programming signals which allow a user to compile a proprietary signal tailored to the user's individual preferences are provided. Systems of the present invention include a receiver for receiving a broadcast programming signal in any broadcast format, a database memory having identification signals stored therein, a comparator for comparing portions of the broadcast signal with the identification signal in order to select those portions of the broadcast programming signal to be recorded, a data processor, and a compression buffer for storage of the selected broadcast programming signals. Methods of the present invention include receiving a broadcast programming signal, comparing the broadcast programming signal to an identification signal derived, employing a signal analyzer originally to derive the identification signals from the content of the broadcast programming before broadcast, so as to select a portion of the broadcast programming signal, and storing the selected portion in a memory.
