Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a list of ranked entities for playback. The list of ranked entities being ranked in a first order based on information for a user account. At least a portion of the list of ranked entities is used to determine corresponding channels that are playing the at least the portion of the list of ranked entities. The method rearranges the channels of an electronic programming guide from a sequence to a second order based on the first order for the at least the portion of the list of ranked entities. The channels are displayed in the electronic programming guide based on the second order.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method uses a first list of ranked entities to determine a first ordering of entities in slots of an electronic programming guide. Information is outputted to display at least a portion of the first ordering of entities in slots of the electronic programming guide. The method determines when a refresh of the electronic programming guide should be performed. When it is determined that the refresh should be performed, if a second list of ranked entities is available: the method uses the second list of ranked entities to determine a second ordering of entities in slots of an electronic programming guide and outputs information to display at least a portion of the second ordering of entities in slots of the electronic programming guide to update the electronic programming guide for the refresh.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method receives a list of ranked entities for video playback for a first interface in a first layout. The list of ranked entities being ranked based on personalized information for a user account. The list of ranked entities is used to determine an ordering of entities in slots of an electronic programming guide. The slots of the electronic programming guide display the entities in a second layout based on a time dimension. The method outputs information to display at least a portion of the entities in the electronic programming guide based on the ordering of entities.
