Abstract
Systems and methods for providing an enhanced viewing experience for a user of an interactive media guidance application are provided. In some aspects, an interactive media guidance application implemented on control circuitry receives a selection of a media asset from a user. The control circuitry analyzes the media asset to determine a context for a portion of the media asset. The control circuitry identifies content related to the portion of the media asset based on the context. The identified content is different from the media asset and is displayed in response to the user selection of the media asset.
Claims21
A method for enhancing viewing experience for a user of an interactive media guidance application implemented on control circuitry, comprising:
- receiving user selection of a media asset to he viewed by the user;
- analyzing the media asset to determine, using the control circuitry, a context for a portion of the media asset;
- identifying, using the control circuitry, content related to the portion of the media asset based on the context, wherein the content is different from the media asset;
- determining an ordering scheme for the identified content;
- arranging the content in a playlist based on the ordering scheme;
- and
- causing the playlist to be played in response to the user selection of the media asset.
