SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MULTIPLE MEDIA GUIDANCE APPLICATION NAVIGATION
First Claim
1. A method for navigating an interactive program guide, the method comprising:
- receiving with a media equipment device, first interactive program guide information from a first mobile device, wherein the first mobile device is configured to display a first mobile interactive program guide;
receiving with the first media equipment device, second interactive program guide information from a second mobile device different from the first mobile device, wherein the second mobile device is configured to display a second mobile interactive program guide;
generating a first interactive program guide based on the received first interactive program guide information;
generating a second interactive program guide based on the received second interactive program guide information; and
displaying, on the media equipment device, one of the first and second interactive program guides.

Abstract
Systems and methods for allowing a user to access media guidance application settings from any given mobile device and centralize the settings using a media equipment device are provided. One or more mobile devices may be detected with a media equipment device. The media equipment device may receive mobile media guidance application settings from the detected mobile devices. The media equipment device may replicate a mobile media guidance application for each of the detected mobile devices based on the received settings. Access to the replicated mobile media guidance applications associated with the detected mobile devices may be provided on the media equipment device. Changes to the settings of the replicated mobile media guidance applications associated with the detected mobile devices may be tracked and transmitted to the corresponding mobile device. The mobile device may modify a mobile media guidance application based on the changes received from the media equipment device.
