1 compressed or non-compressed response to said query at said remote query and data retrieval
2 means from said remote server via said input/output means") reads on receiving compressed
3 motion picture data from head end 115 and storing the motion picture data in program
4 buffer 161. Dr. Koopman's testimony that Baji fails to disclose "receiving a compressed or non-
5 compressed response," 2d Koopman Decl. at 190, para. 415, appears to be based on the
6 misconception that Baji must disclose receiving compressed and non-compressed responses;
7 reception of either type of response is enough, as noted by the examiner. Final Action at 221,
8 para. 415; Answer at 210, para. 415.
9 Step (d) ("displaying a presentation corresponding to said compressed or non-compressed
10 response on output means") reads on using the television monitor 114 to display the selected,

12 testimony (2d Koopman Decl. at 190-91, para. 416) that the television monitor 114 and program
13 buffer do not teach displaying a presentation corresponding to the response is not understood.
14 The examiner reads step (e), which specifies that "said displaying step commences before
15 said step of receiving said compressed or non-compressed response has been completed," on the
16 following passage sentence:
17 While an access is effected on a motion picture data base, it is
18 possible to use a playback control function 170 for various operations
19 such as a fast forward operation, a rewind operation, a temporary stop, and
20 a slow display, thereby achieving a remote control on the motion picture
21 data base located in the head end 115. The function above is also
22 available during an operation of a local video image recording apparatus
