Patent number: 9596428Abstract: Disclosure is generally directed to a television receiver with multiple inputs, some accepting a local broadcast and some accepting satellite transmissions or transmissions across another network. The television receiver may pass local transmissions through to a display in their original form and at their original frequency, while retuning the display to receive the transmission at its original frequency. The television receiver may also receive, process and provide satellite or other types of programming to the television as necessary. The output of the receiver's modulator may switch back and forth as a user changes between local broadcast and satellite channels. Further, an EPG may be provided that includes information for both programming sources in an integrated fashion.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2014Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: ECHOSTAR TECHNOLOGIES L.L.C.Inventor: Markus Wayne Jackson

Patent number: 8997156Abstract: A television provider receives content from a plurality of users. The user generated content is aggregated and scheduled for broadcast across a channel of the television provider. The user generated content is then broadcast at the scheduled time for reception by communication devices associated with the television provider.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2009Date of Patent: March 31, 2015Assignee: EchoStar Technologies LLCInventors: Nicholas Newell, Markus Wayne Jackson

Patent number: 8732764Abstract: A program recording device including an input port, a processor memory, a processor, a selector, and a storage element is configured to receive command data and program data through the input port. The selector receives command data and program data from the input port and outputs the command data to the processor memory and the program data to the storage element. The processor uses this command data to control the selector and storage element to automatically record a program influenced by user preferences onto the storage element without requiring any user input.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2007Date of Patent: May 20, 2014Assignee: EchoStar Technologies, L.L.C.Inventors: David A. Kummer, Markus Wayne Jackson
