| 20090310937 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR INTERACTIVE PROGRAM GUIDES WITH PERSONAL VIDEO RECORDING FEATURES - Methods and systems that provide enhanced personal video recorder (“PVR”) and interactive television program guide (“IPG”) functionality are provided. An interactive television application (“application”) may be implemented to provide such functionality. The application may be used to display a list of PVR recordings, to schedule recordings to a PVR, to configure recordings, to view a list of scheduled recordings, to configure recording settings, or to select delete priority settings for recordings. The application may integrate pay-per-view and PVR functionality. The application may send user notifications for changes that are to be made to the recording content of a PVR. Live programming may be buffered by the application using a straight buffers that are created for each new program. Parallel buffers for concurrent programs may be implemented using multiple tuners. Straight buffers may be used in managing or controlling the flow of programming. Television content may be automatically paused when a user is engaged in using the application. Multiple IPGs for different users of a PVR may be implemented. Other PVR related features are also provided. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100310227 | PERSONAL VIDEO RECORDER SYSTEMS AND METHODS - Systems and methods are disclosed for providing an interactive television system for recording television programming. The interactive television system may include components for providing personal video recorder (PVR) functionality, such as an interactive television program guide (IPG), PVR extensions, PVR application programming interfaces (APIs), a PVR device, any suitable hardware or software, or a combination thereof. These components may be implemented in, for example, an arrangement having an integrated PVR-compliant device with a PVR device, or in an arrangement having a PVR-compliant device (e.g., a set-top box) coupled to PVR equipment (e.g., a remote PVR server or a PVR sidecar) with a PVR device. The PVR-compliant device may include software and hardware configured to implement the IPG. The PVR APIs may be a library of intelligent vendor-specific and vendor-independent APIs able to determine the type of PVR device being used. The PVR extensions and PVR APIs may be configured to provide a seamless integration of functionality associated with the PVR-compliant device and the PVR device. A full port of the IPG may be implemented in both the PVR-compliant device and the PVR device. | 12-09-2010 |

| 20100175086 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING TRANSPORT CONTROL - A transport control interface may be provided by an interactive television program guide application to provide information, control or both for live and recorded video programming. The transport control interface may indicate to the user the time duration of a live or recorded program and any time segments of the program that have been recorded. The transport control interface may automatically adjust the start and end time shown to accommodate various factors such as continuous viewing on a particular channel, multiple recorded segments, buffer size, etc. Various information associated with the live or recorded video programming may be displayed in the transport control interface. | 07-08-2010 |

| 20090240660 | INTEGRATION FOR INTELLIGENCE DATA SYSTEMS - A system includes one or more server computing devices coupled to a data network. One or more storage devices are associated with each of the one or more server computing devices. A search device is configured to search intelligence data residing on one or more of the storage devices. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20090240661 | INTEGRATION FOR INTELLIGENCE DATA SYSTEMS - A method and computer program product for creating a document library and uploading content to the document library. An application programming interface of a metadata framework is exposed. Metadata associated with the content is generated based upon, at least in part, one or more defined schemas. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20090240662 | INTEGRATION FOR INTELLIGENCE DATA SYSTEMS - A method and computer program product for searching one or more intelligence data stores to generate a result set. At least a portion of the results set is overlaid onto a graphical map to define one or more available pieces of content. The one or more of the one or more available pieces of content is accessed. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20090240699 | INTEGRATION FOR INTELLIGENCE DATA SYSTEMS - A method and computer program product allow for accessing one or more intelligence data stores distributed across a network. The one or more of the intelligence data stores are searched. The method and computer program product further allow at least a portion of the content of the one or more intelligence data stores to be managed. | 09-24-2009 |
