SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SETTING A TIMER VIA AN INTERACTIVE TRIGGER

摘要

Systems and methods may provide for setting a timer via an interactive trigger. The interactive trigger may be combined with a video stream and detected when the video stream is to be displayed. Based on the detection, a selectable display object associated with the interactive trigger may be displayed with the display of the video stream. Selection of the selectable display object may enable a timer to be set based on the interactive trigger. The timer enabled by the interactive trigger may be a recording timer, an auto-tune timer or a reminder timer.

1. A method for setting a timer via an interactive trigger, the method comprising:
receiving a video stream at a client device, the video stream including at least one interactive trigger configured to enable a timer to be set based on the interactive trigger; detecting, utilizing at least one processing unit of the client device, the at least one interactive trigger; transmitting at least one selectable display object with the video stream to a display device, the at least one selectable display object associated with the at least one interactive trigger; receiving a selection of the selectable display object at the client device; and setting a timer for the client device based on the at least one interactive trigger in response to the received selection, wherein the at least one interactive trigger includes at least one timer parameter and said setting a timer for the client device based on the at least one interactive trigger in response to the received selection comprises: receiving an input to modify the at least one timer parameter; and setting the timer with the modified at least one timer parameter, wherein the at least one timer parameter includes a unique program identification (UPID).
