Patent number: 8903863Abstract: Automatically and repeatedly crawling multiple multimedia websites to identify and collect information about the multimedia content that is available for delivery over the Internet to a client device for playback on a media player operating on the client device. In one embodiment, the method normalizes the collected information by converting the different formats of the collected information into a common format and converting the different nomenclatures of the collected information into a common nomenclature. The method updates an index with the normalized information, and sends a data feed to the client device to populate the user interface on the client device with the normalized information of the index. The user interface allows the user to navigate and select the multimedia content that is available for delivery over the Internet for playback on the media player.Type: GrantFiled: September 14, 2012Date of Patent: December 2, 2014Assignee: EchoStar Technologies L.L.C.Inventors: John Edwards, Nathan Edwards, David Brueck
