Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012087825A1] The disclosed methods and systems are related to providing programming recommendations for a user that are time and/or contextually specific. i.e. "What type of programming would user A watch at 9-12 pm on a Thursday" instead of the more generic "What type of programming would user A watch." In addition, the present invention is capable of providing recommendations that consist of non-scheduled content. Non-scheduled content refers to content that is not part of a providers programming schedule (i.e. shows and movies shown at a specific scheduled time). Examples of non-scheduled content include, but are not limited to, previously recorded content (such as shows or movies on a DVR), video on demand (VOD), over the top services (such as streaming services Netflix, Hulu, Vudu, Pandora, etc.), stored content (such as movies, music, or photos), and web sites.
