    摘要: A favorite channel list for a media system is generated by observing the viewing, surfing, and recording habits of a user. The viewing habits may include the duration and frequency of viewing a channel. A user's surfing habits, including navigation habits of a guide, the method used for navigation to a channel, and information queries made during a surfing session may be used to determine which channels may be added to a favorites list. When the user has an ability to record a program and view the program later, the user's behavior in selecting programs for recording, and the behaviors of playing back and archiving recorded shows may also be used to identify favorite channels. In some embodiments, the favorites list may be customized for a user or node of a playback system, as well as time of day.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and computer program products for managing and prioritizing record events. A priority manager includes an event list that lists scheduled record events. Each event in the event list has a priority that is different from the other events in the event list. If some of the events conflict, such as when a tuning resource is lost and unavailable, then those events with the highest priority in the event list are recorded. A user can assign priority to events when they are scheduled or at a later time. This enables event conflicts to be resolved by the user when the events are initially scheduled. When an event conflict arises later, the conflict is resolved by the priority manager according to the relative priority of the events in the event list.

    摘要: Systems, methods and computer program products for allocating tuner resources to tuner consumers when a tuner conflict occurs. When the tuner resources of a system or network reside at a central server, the tuners are allocated to requesting consumers according to the priority of the tuner request and the current tuner priorities. A tuner request that has a higher priority than one of the current tuners is granted. The tuner is not taken from the consumer without warning, however. Tuner conflict is also prevented by lowering the respective tuner priorities as appropriate.
