  • Systems and methods for indicating progress within a media asset
    Patent number: 10511890
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for indicating progress within a media asset. An illustrative method retrieves a content preference from a database, identifies a plurality of segments of a media asset that match the content preference, each segment of the plurality of segments having a respective duration. The method further calculates a first sum of the respective durations of the plurality of segments of the media asset that match the content preference, determines which of the plurality of segments that match the content preference precede an output position of the media asset, calculates a second sum of the respective durations of the segments determined to precede the output position of the media asset, and generates for display a progress indicator of the media asset based on the second sum as a percentage of the first sum.
