Rovi Guides, Inc. v. Bell Canada
TIVO SOLUTIONS INC.
The case involved patent infringement and validity proceedings regarding patents related to interactive television program guides and internet protocol television technology. An interactive television program guide (IPG) allowed users to navigate and interact with television program listings, while IPTV delivered television content over IP networks. The patents' claims covered various features such as managing recordings, viewing from other devices, scheduling multiple recordings, retrieving on-demand media, and restarting broadcasts. The court found the asserted claims to be neither new nor inventive, rendering them invalid. The plaintiffs' infringement claims were dismissed, and the defendants' counterclaims for invalidity were granted.
