发明名称 Context-based media program presentation methods and systems
摘要 An exemplary computer-implemented media service system detects an input command provided by a user to initiate a viewing session by way of a display screen in communication with a media content processing device that operates in accordance with a media service, identifies a context within which the input command is provided by the user, selects, based on the identified context, a media program available by way of the media service and that is potentially of interest to the user, and directs the media content processing device to present the media program by way of the display screen when the viewing session begins in response to the input command. Corresponding systems and methods are also described.

主权项 1. A method comprising: detecting, by a computer-implemented media service system, an input command provided by a user to initiate a viewing session by way of a display screen in communication with a media content processing device that operates in accordance with a media service; identifying, by the computer-implemented media service system, a context within which the input command is provided by the user; selecting, by the computer-implemented media service system based on the identified context, a media program available by way of the media service and that is potentially of interest to the user; directing, by the computer-implemented media service system, the media content processing device to present the media program by way of the display screen when the viewing session begins in response to the input command; detecting, by the computer-implemented media service system while the media content processing device is presenting the media program by way of the display screen, that an additional user enters a vicinity of the display screen; determining, by the computer-implemented media service system in response to the detecting that the additional user enters the vicinity of the display screen, whether the user has left the vicinity of the display screen; and if the determining indicates that the user has left the vicinity of the display screen selecting, by the computer-implemented media service system, an additional media program available by way of the media service and that is potentially of interest to the additional user, andautomatically directing, by the computer-implemented media service system without receiving input from the additional user, the media content processing device to switch from presenting the media program by way of the display screen to presenting the additional media program by way of the display screen.
