ABSTRACT:
A terminal device in a video-on-demand system is provided. The terminal device is connected to a server via a network, and information screens are displayed by the terminal device in accordance with information screen data transmitted from the server. The terminal device contains a memory, a display, an input device, and a controller. The memory stores selection information corresponding to a particular information screen of the information screens, the display displays the particular information screen, and the input device inputs a selection command and a retrieval command. The controller generates the selection information and stores the selection information in the memory in response to the selection command. Furthermore, the controller reads the selection information from the memory in response to the retrieval command. Also, the controller outputs a request command to the server after reading the selection information from the memory, and the request command requests the server to transmit particular information screen data corresponding to the particular information screen so that the particular information screen can be promptly displayed on the display. Therefore, information on the information screen can be promptly provided to a user, thereby preventing service delay and reducing connect-time fees charged by the network.
