摘要： Systems and methods for a video scan are provided. The scan may be dynamically interactive and a function of characteristics of the programs in the scan (e.g., commercial breaks or the end of a program approaching) The scan may simultaneously display multiple scan windows for a plurality of programs, for example in a scan wizard. The scan wizard allows the user to simultaneously view a scan window and an information panel, select criteria for the scan from a criteria panel, and control the scan using a scan control panel. The scan may allow the user to record a program displayed in the scan without interrupting the scan (e.g., by using an additional tuner). The scan may display, within the scan interface, trick-play functions for appropriate scanned programs (e.g., recorded, cached and on-demand programs). The user may select and perform trick-play functions for a scanned program without exiting the scan mode.
摘要翻译：提供了视频扫描的系统和方法。扫描可以是动态交互的，并且扫描中的程序的特征（例如，商业中断或程序结束）的扫描可以同时显示多个程序的多个扫描窗口，例如在扫描向导中。扫描向导允许用户同时查看扫描窗口和信息面板，从标准面板中选择扫描的标准，并使用扫描控制面板控制扫描。扫描可以允许用户记录在扫描中显示的程序而不中断扫描（例如，通过使用另外的调谐器）。扫描可以在扫描界面内显示用于适当扫描程序（例如，记录，缓存和按需程序）的特技播放功能。用户可以选择并执行扫描程序的特技播放功能而不退出扫描模式。

摘要： Systems and methods for transitioning from buffering video to recording video. The control application receives a video and causes the video to be buffered until it detects a buffer full condition. Upon receiving the buffer full condition, the control application causes the media recorder to begin recording the newly received video as a recording, and designates the buffered video as part of the recording. In one method, the control application can be set to either record or play when the buffer becomes full. In other methods, the control application prompts the user for input indicating whether the video should be recorded or played when the buffer becomes full. In still other methods, the control application alerts the user as to how long a program may be paused before the buffer will become full.

摘要： Systems and methods for providing media planners for planning a user's media content viewing activities are provided. The media planner may include an interactive grid of content with scheduled viewing, recording, or reminders set within a user-selectable time window. The media planner may prioritize content within the planner grid and automatically resolve conflicts when the number of available tuners within the user equipment device has been exceeded. Programs matching a user's viewing interests may also be automatically recorded in the user's absence. Coming-soon announcements may be received for programming outside the current program schedule window. Conditional media guidance application functions may be scheduled based on preliminary availability and attribute data associated with a coming-soon asset.

摘要： Systems and methods for managing the storage of recordings in a recording device in which the recordings were requested by several users are provided. Each user may be assigned a storage space limit defining the amount of storage space each user is entitled to use. In some embodiments, the storage space limit may be flexibly increased to take advantage of extra space available from other users. The system may intelligently borrow space from other users to limit the risk that a requested recording is canceled due to unavailable storage resources. In some embodiments, the system may jointly allocate a recording to several users who commonly requested a recording. The system may also set aside space in the recording device that is saved exclusively for a particular user. In some embodiments, the recording device may allocate the storage resources based on the usage of the recordings.
摘要翻译：提供了用于管理在多个用户请求记录的记录装置中记录的存储的系统和方法。可以为每个用户分配限定每个用户有权使用的存储空间量的存储空间限制。在一些实施例中，可以灵活地增加存储空间限制以利用来自其他用户的额外空间。系统可以智能地从其他用户借用空间，以限制由于不可用的存储资源而要求的记录被取消的风险。在一些实施例中，系统可以共同地将记录分配给通常请求记录的多个用户。系统还可以在专门为特定用户保存的记录装置中留出空间。在一些实施例中，记录设备可以基于记录的使用来分配存储资源。

摘要： Systems and methods for rewinding a video to a point before the video was first viewed. Video transmitted by a media source is cached by a remote server. Upon a trick-play request for the video, the server generates a rewind stream that includes the video that was transmitted by the media source before the user started to view the video. Upon receiving the rewind stream, the user's equipment may cache the rewind stream in a rewind buffer and rewind or play from the rewind buffer. The server may also generate and transmit a forward stream of the video that the media source has not yet transmitted. The user's equipment may cache the forward stream in a forward buffer. To perform trick-play operations with the video, the user's equipment may migrate the playback of the video to the rewind and forward buffers and rewind or fast-forward the video from the buffers.
摘要翻译：将视频倒转到视频首次观看之前的系统和方法。由媒体源发送的视频由远程服务器缓存。在对视频进行特技播放请求时，服务器产生包括在用户开始观看视频之前由媒体源发送的视频的倒带数据流。在接收到倒带流时，用户的设备可以将快退流缓存在倒带缓冲器中并从倒带缓冲器进行倒带或播放。服务器还可以生成和发送媒体源尚未传送的视频的前向流。用户的设备可以将前向流缓存在前向缓冲区中。为了用视频执行特技播放操作，用户的设备可以将视频的回放迁移到倒带和转发缓冲器并且从缓冲器中倒带或快进视频。

摘要： Systems and methods for displaying substitute media while fast forwarding past advertisements are provided. When a user reaches the advertisement, the interactive media guidance application may receive an instruction to fast forward the advertisement. In response to the fast forward instruction, the interactive media guidance application may identify and display substitute media instead of the advertisement. The substitute media may be an image, a video frame/clip, a graphic, an animated graphic, or any other suitable media. The substitute media may be distributed in the advertisement using any suitable method. For example, the substitute media may be incorporated in the video frames of the advertisement (e.g., overlaid in the video frames of the advertisement), added as hidden video frames distributed in the advertisement, or any other suitable approach. An advertisement tool for creating advertisements that include substitute media, and for previewing advertisements as they are fast forwarded is also provided.
摘要翻译：提供了在快速转发广告时显示替代媒体的系统和方法。当用户到达广告时，交互式媒体引导应用可以接收快速转发广告的指令。响应于快进指令，交互式媒体引导应用可以识别和显示替代媒体而不是广告。替代媒体可以是图像，视频帧/剪辑，图形，动画图形或任何其它合适的媒体。替代媒体可以使用任何合适的方法分发在广告中。例如，替代媒体可以被并入广告的视频帧（例如，叠加在广告的视频帧中），作为在广告中分配的隐藏视频帧添加，或者任何其他合适的方法。还提供了用于创建包括替代媒体的广告以及用于在快速转发时预览广告的广告工具。
