Abstract: Systems and methods are described for searching media files using a set-top box (STB), a television receiver, digital video recorder (DVR), placeshifting device or other media device, or any type of network host that communicates with a media device of any sort. Search criteria is received from a user, and the search criteria is identified in listings of media programming available from one or more sources. In some implementations, a combined search result can be provided that identifies instances of the search criteria found in program guide listings, files stored on a digital video recorder (DVR), available on-demand content, or any other sources as desired. Some implementations may prioritize search results using information about files stored on a DVR, user preferences, or any other information as desired.

Abstract: An online system associated with a venue provides an application to client devices that allows users to request products from one or more vendors associated with the venue. When the online system receives a request for a product from a vendor associated with the venue from a client device, the online system selects a delivery person to provide the product to the user. Based on a physical location of the client device from which the request was received and a physical location of an additional client device associated with the delivery person, the online system determines directions from the physical location of the additional client device to the physical location of the client device. The online system provides an interface identifying the directions to the additional client device, allowing the delivery person to navigate through the venue to deliver the product to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described for remotely controlling a personal or digital video recorder (PVR/DVR), a set top box (STB), a placeshifting device, or any other media server. A communications session is established between a server host and the media server in response to a connection request received from the client. Information about the content processed at the media server is received via the session and provided to the client. In response to subsequent instructions received from the client, the media server can be controlled, or other actions can be taken, by providing directions to the media server from the host via the communications session. Additional or alternate features may be provided as desired.
