Abstract: A network device receives battery status signals for multiple mobile devices and receives a notification of an incoming call from a calling device to a particular mobile device. The network device determines if a battery status, from the battery status signals, is available for the particular mobile device and provides, to the calling device, a challenge to solicit a categorization of the incoming call as important or not important when a battery status is available for the particular mobile device. The network device receives, from the calling device, a response to the challenge, wherein the response includes the categorization of the incoming call. The network device connects the incoming call from the calling device to the particular mobile device when the categorization of the incoming call is important.

Abstract: A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium to output a program during a program session; monitor trick play inputs during the outputting of the program; receive a trick play input during the outputting of the program; capture trick play data and time data based on a receipt of the trick play input; store the trick play data and the time data as behavioral data; and use the stored behavioral data to govern a subsequent outputting of the program during another program session.

Abstract: An exemplary method includes an adaptive media content presentation system detecting an interaction of a user with a media content program, generating a playing pattern associated with the media content program based on the detected interaction of the user with the media content program, and applying the playing pattern to at least one of a presentation of the media content program and a presentation of an additional media content program. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method including receiving a request to start recording a sequence of navigational inputs to be received by a user device; storing each navigational input of the sequence when each navigational input is received; receiving a request to stop recording the sequence of navigational inputs; stopping the recording of the sequence of navigational inputs; receiving an assignment of a trigger to invoke an execution of the recorded sequence of navigational inputs; storing the assignment of the trigger; identifying when the trigger is received or occurs; and executing the recorded sequence of navigational inputs on the user device based on the identifying.

Abstract: A device receives first streaming media from a content delivery server at a client device via an OTT network service. The device receives an Emergency Alert System (EAS) notification at the client device, and receives via the OTT network service and plays, subsequent to the EAS notification, EAS media at the client device. The device disables a user interface at the client device to prevent user interface interactions until completion of the playing of the EAS media.
