A time sequential signal comprising audiovisual content and hyperlinks is
received and displayed on a display device by the systems of the
invention in a time sequential manner. The display of the time sequential
signal is paused whenever a displayed hyperlink is selected. While
pausing the display, data corresponding to any selected hyperlink is
accessed and displayed on the display device. The corresponding data may
comprise a web page accessed through the Internet or an interval page
that is transmitted within the vertical blanking intervals of the time
sequential signal. While pausing the display of the time sequential
signal, the time sequential signal is recorded so that it can be viewed
in the order it was recorded as soon as a resume display command is
received by the system.
