Content

Conventionally, the challenge may be handled by including fewer buttons on the remote control 106, or by using translation stickers affixed to the buttons. However, fewer buttons requires various buttons to serve multiple roles, which can be annoying to advanced users. Also, translation stickers may fall off or require frequent changing. Alternatively, help screens and printed manuals may be provided to assist foreign language users. However, for certain interactive options, a user may not have time to consult a help screen or printed manual before the option is no longer available. The limited availability is even more troublesome when a user experiences a language barrier.
