Patent Images
1. A computer implemented method, comprising:
- initiating a call from an interactive voice response (IVR) system to a first device associated with a user, the call initiated in response to a user request;
receiving voice input data at the IVR system via the call;
performing a search of a media content database based at least partially on the voice input data; and
sending search results identifying media content items based on the search of the media content database to a second device associated with the user.

11. An interactive voice response (IVR) system, comprising:
-
a processor to process voice input data received from a user via a call from a first device associated with the user and to determine search terms for a search of a media content database based on the voice input data; a search engine to perform the search of the media content database based at least partially on the search terms; and an input/output interface to send search results to a second device associated with the user identifying at least one media content item identified via the search. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. An interactive voice response (IVR) system, comprising:
-
a processor; and a computer-readable storage medium comprising operational instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to; receive voice input data from a user via a voice call to initiate a search of a media content database; initiate the search of the media content database; identify a set-top box device associated with the user; and send search results identifying media content items based on the search of the media content database to the set-top box device associated with the user. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
