Recorded content repair
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- detecting, by a television receiver during a primary recording of particular programming, degradation of a received signal quality associated with the particular programming to at or below a predetermined threshold value;
instantiating, by a television receiver in response to the detecting, a secondary recording of the particular programming during the primary recording when the particular programming is accessible over at least one terrestrial network;
querying, by the television receiver over the at least one terrestrial network, a computing system to acquire content associated with at least one gap in content within the primary recording present due to received signal quality;
outputting, by the television receiver for display by a presentation device during playback of the primary recording, a notification to enable access to the secondary recording instantiated by the television receiver when the at least one gap in content within the primary recording is unavailable over the at least one terrestrial network;
acquiring content associated with the at least one gap in content within the primary recording;
editing the primary recording to repair the at least one gap; and
editing the primary recording to include at least one advertisement that when displayed provides an announcement of a product related to the particular programming and offered by an entity other than a content provider associated with broadcast of the particular programming during the primary recording.

Abstract
A television receiver may detect during a primary recording of particular programming degradation of a received signal quality associated with the particular programming to at or below a predetermined threshold value. The television receiver may instantiate a secondary recording of the particular programming during the primary recording when the particular programming is accessible over at least one terrestrial network. The television receiver may query a computing system to acquire content associated with at least one gap in content within the primary recording present due to received signal quality. The television receiver may output during playback of the primary recording a notification to enable access to the secondary recording when content associated with the at least one gap in content within the primary recording is unavailable over the at least one terrestrial network.

8. A television receiver, comprising:
-
one or more processors; and a memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the one or more processors and having stored therein processor-readable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including; detecting, during a primary recording of particular programming, degradation of a received signal quality associated with the particular programming to at or below a predetermined threshold value; instantiating, in response to the detecting, a secondary recording of the particular programming during the primary recording when the particular programming is accessible over at least one terrestrial network; querying, over the at least one terrestrial network, a computing system to acquire content associated with at least one gap in content within the primary recording present due to received signal quality; outputting, for display by a presentation device during playback of the primary recording, a notification to enable access to the secondary recording instantiated by the television receiver when the at least one gap in content within the primary recording is unavailable over the at least one terrestrial network; acquiring content associated with the at least one gap in content within the primary recording; editing the primary recording to repair the at least one gap; and editing the primary recording to include at least one advertisement that when displayed provides an announcement of a product related to the particular programming and offered by an entity other than a content provider associated with broadcast of the particular programming during the primary recording. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium comprising processor-readable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:
-
detecting, by a television receiver during a primary recording of particular programming, degradation of a received signal quality associated with the particular programming to at or below a predetermined threshold value; instantiating, by a television receiver in response to the detecting, a secondary recording of the particular programming during the primary recording when the particular programming is accessible over at least one terrestrial network; querying, by the television receiver over the at least one terrestrial network, a computing system to acquire content associated with at least one gap in content within the primary recording present due to received signal quality; outputting, by the television receiver for display by a presentation device during playback of the primary recording, a notification to enable access to the secondary recording instantiated by the television receiver when the at least one gap in content within the primary recording is unavailable over the at least one terrestrial network; acquiring content associated with the at least one gap in content within the primary recording; editing the primary recording to repair the at least one gap; and editing the primary recording to include at least one advertisement that when displayed provides an announcement of a product related to the particular programming and offered by an entity other than a content provider associated with broadcast of the particular programming during the primary recording. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
