Systems And Methods For Modifying An Interactive Media Guidance Application Interface Based On Time Of Day

US Patent:
2008009, Apr 17, 2008
Filed:
Sep 29, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/541248
Inventors:
Steve Shannon - Pacific Palisades CA, US
Michael Ross Starkenburg - Costa Mesa CA, US
International Classification:
H04N 5/445, G06F 3/00, G06F 13/00
US Classification:
725 47, 725 44, 725 46
Abstract:
Systems and methods for automatically displaying personalized interactive media guidance application screens based on the time of day are provided. The interactive media guidance application may monitor user interactions with the user equipment, and identify individual user profiles for different times of day. Using this information, the interactive media guidance application may partition the day into day parts, each associated with a user profile. The interactive media guidance application may also create or select a plurality of personalized interfaces or configurations for displaying media guidance information, where each interface or configuration reflects the interests of an identified user profile. When a user accesses the interactive media guidance application, the interactive media guidance application may identify the user profile associated with the current day part, and display the personalized interface or configuration associated with the identified user profile.

US Patent:
2011017, Jul 21, 2011
Filed:
Mar 31, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/077763
Inventors:
Michael Ross Starkenburg - Costa Mesa CA, US
Peter Kellogg-Smith - Issaquah WA, US
Andrew Ferrone - Boston MA, US
Steve Shannon - Pacific Palisades CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709217
Abstract:
Users of interactive media guidance applications may access media content and seek media guidance on a plurality of user equipment devices. A user profile server may be used for the management of a user's profile information. The user profile server may store a user's profile information including information about the user's media network and about user equipment devices associated with the user's media network. The user's profile information may be used to provide functionality to record media content on the most suitable user equipment device of a user's media network. The user's profile information may also be used to provide recommendations of media content based on a user's monitored interactions with a plurality of user equipment devices. The user's profile information may also be provided to user equipment devices of the media network not having the user profile information.
