    Abstract: A smart broadcast program recording padding and scheduling system provides a system for adjusting the start and end times of a broadcast program's recording schedule that has a predetermined start and end broadcast time and resolving any conflicts arising from conflicting scheduled program recordings. An on screen program guide is displayed to the viewer via a monitor or television that lists the predetermined scheduled broadcast times and channels of a plurality of broadcast programs. The viewer selects a particular broadcast program to record and the invention schedules the broadcast program to be recorded by inserting the program's information such as program identifier, start and end times, and storage duration into a recording schedule database. The viewer adjusts the scheduled start and/or end recording times for a specific program or series of programs by specifying the time increment (padding) to add or subtract from the start and/or end recording times and the invention adjusts the recording schedule for the program(s) using the padding values. Conflicts that arise from adjusted recording schedules are resolved using a priority scheme. Conflicting padding values and start and end recording times are adjusted using threshold values or by elimination. Broadcast programs are recorded onto a persistent storage device when the recording schedule indicates that it is time to do so.

    Abstract translation: 智能广播节目记录填充和调度系统提供了一种用于调整具有预定的开始和结束广播时间的广播节目的录制节目的开始和结束时间并且解决由冲突的预定节目记录产生的任何冲突的系统。 屏幕上的节目指南通过列出多个广播节目的预定的广播时间和频道的监视器或电视机向观看者显示。 观众选择要记录的特定广播节目，并且本发明通过将诸如节目标识符，开始和结束时间以及存储持续时间的节目信息插入到录制节目表数据库来安排要记录的广播节目。 观看者通过指定从开始和/或结束记录时间加或减的时间增量（填充）来调整特定节目或一系列节目的预定开始和/或结束记录时间，并且本发明调整记录时间表 程序使用填充值。 使用优先方案解决调整后的记录时间表产生的冲突。 冲突填充值和开始和结束记录时间是使用阈值或消除来调整的。 当记录时间表指示是时间时，广播节目被记录在永久存储设备上。

    Abstract: Techniques for recommending recording and/or downloading suggestions to a DVR user are provided. According to one technique, a list of suggestions is received from a recommending entity. Each of the suggestions identifies either to-be-broadcasted content or downloadable content. The entity is mapped to the list, thereby establishing an entity-to-list mapping. Data, which indicates a user's selection of a list, is received. The user's DVR is mapped to the selected list, thereby establishing a DVR-to-list mapping. Based on this mapping, one or more candidate items are automatically selected from among a set of items. Identities of the candidate items are sent to the DVR. The recommending entity does not own or operate the DVR.

    Abstract: Techniques described herein enable searching for multimedia content and for downloading or scheduling the recording of the multimedia content. The multimedia content may have been previously stored on one or more databases. The client device may download or schedule the recording of multimedia content in one step, for example, in one touch. When desired multimedia content is not available, the multimedia content is added to the client device's wish list. When the client device's does not have a wish list, the client device's wish list may be created on the spot. During the scheduling of the recording, a tag associated with the multimedia content is checked to determine whether the multimedia content is live or delayed. When the tag indicates the multimedia content is live or delayed, the client device prompts with a suggestion to add extra time to the end of the recording of the multimedia content.

    Abstract translation: 本文描述的技术能够搜索多媒体内容并用于下载或调度多媒体内容的记录。 多媒体内容可能已经先前存储在一个或多个数据库上。 客户端设备可以在一个步骤中例如一个接一个地下载或安排多媒体内容的记录。 当期望的多媒体内容不可用时，多媒体内容被添加到客户端设备的愿望列表中。 当客户端设备没有希望列表时，客户端设备的愿望列表可以在现场创建。 在记录调度期间，检查与多媒体内容相关联的标签，以确定多媒体内容是实时还是延迟。 当标签指示多媒体内容是实时的或延迟的时，客户端设备提示建议在多媒体内容的记录结束时增加额外的时间。
