Abstract

See full text

A method and system for providing an interactive shopping channel. A head-end server may be configured to access product information, to access customer information specific to a set-top receiver, and to process purchase requests. The head-end server can be used to generate metadata which can be associated with broadcast video of a shopping channel. The head-end server may be configured to extract data from video content of the shopping channel in order to generate the metadata. The head-end server is configured to send the video content and the metadata to a set-top receiver and other companion client devices. The client devices can be configured to receive and play the shopping channel video, as well as facilitate purchasing of one or more products shown by the broadcast video. A purchase transaction can be initiated from the client devices by sending a communication to the head-end server which references the metadata.
