Patent number: 12206916Abstract: The systems and methods described herein optimize the retrieval of missed content by playing back cached content to enable tuners with limited capacity to retrieve the missed content. A content presentation system may receive, with a tuner, a transmission of content comprising media content and advertisements. The content presentation system may cache the advertisements. The content presentation system may determine whether an interruption during the transmission resulted in a missed portion of content and, in response, determine whether an advertisement upcoming at a time period in the transmission of content is cached. If the upcoming advertisement is cached, the content presentation system may play back the cached advertisement at the time period and release the tuner previously receiving the transmission of content to retrieve the missed portion of the content during the time period.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2024Date of Patent: January 21, 2025Assignee: Adeia Guides Inc.Inventors: Madhusudhan Srinivasan, Piar Chand, Labhala Gowtham, Durga Prasad Pulicharla, Aditya Rautray, Deviprasad Punja

Publication number: 20240333994Abstract: Systems and methods provided herein describe dynamically displaying a guide interface element for a customized period of time that is determined based on characteristics of the actual guide interface element to be displayed. In this way, when the timeout of the guide interface element is customized based on characteristics of the guide data, the duration engine allows sufficient time for the viewer to view and react to the guide interface element. Incidents of viewer re-launching of the guide interface element can thus be reduced to improve system processing efficiency and viewing experience.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 11, 2024Publication date: October 3, 2024Inventors: Madhusudhan Srinivasan, Labhala Gowtham
