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: Techniques described herein enable a service to receive search requests from client systems and perform an integrated search across databases containing informational data for broadcast content and broadband content. The service receives the search request from the client device and formulates a query for at least one broadband database and at least one partner broadcast database. The service queries each broadband database with a compatible query that the service creates using information regarding the type of database queries each partner's database requires. Partners pay the service provider a fee for placing data in the database or for having their database searched by the service. The service formats the data received from the searches of the databases into a user interface screen that is presentable by the client device. The screen information instructs the client device on how it should respond to any key presses by the user.

Abstract translation: 本文描述的技术使得服务能够从客户端系统接收搜索请求，并且跨越包含用于广播内容和宽带内容的信息数据的数据库执行综合搜索。 该服务从客户端设备接收搜索请求，并为至少一个宽带数据库和至少一个伙伴广播数据库制定查询。 该服务使用与每个合作伙伴数据库所需的数据库查询类型相关的信息，使用服务创建的兼容查询来查询每个宽带数据库。 合作伙伴向服务提供商支付将数据放入数据库或将其数据库由服务搜索到的费用。 服务将从数据库的搜索接收到的数据格式化为由客户端设备呈现的用户界面屏幕。 屏幕信息指示客户端设备如何响应用户的任何按键。
