SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DISPLAYING A LIVE VIDEO STREAM IN A GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE
The disclosed technology relates to playing a live video stream in a graphical user interface upon preselection of a live video stream from a plurality of live video streams. The graphical user interface is configured to play a live video stream of a plurality of live video streams in a background portion of the graphical user interface upon preselection of the live video stream from a scrolling portion of the graphical user interface. The scrolling portion is removed from the graphical user interface in response to a selection of the live video stream.
1 . A computer-implemented method for playing a live video stream from a plurality of live video streams, comprising:
generating a graphical user interface comprising a scrolling portion and a background portion, wherein the scrolling portion comprises a plurality of live video streams for preselection and selection;
playing a first live video stream of the plurality of live video streams in the background portion in response to a preselection of the first live video stream from the scrolling portion; and
removing the scrolling portion from the graphical user interface in response to a selection of the first live video stream.
2 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising arranging the plurality of live video streams in the scrolling portion based on preference of a user.
3 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising displaying an image associated with the first live video stream in the background portion.
4 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the preselection of the first live video stream comprises navigating the first live video stream to a focus of the scrolling portion.
5 . The computer-implemented method of claim 4 , wherein the selection of the first live video stream comprises maintaining the focus on the first live video stream for a predetermined amount of time.
6 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the selection of the first live video stream comprises receiving an input from a user to select the first live video stream.
7 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the scrolling portion further comprises metadata for each live video stream of the plurality of live video streams, the metadata comprising network name, content title, and an image.
8 . The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein the scrolling portion further comprises elapsed information for each live video stream of the plurality of live video streams.
9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , wherein the background portion further comprises metadata for the first live video stream, the metadata comprising a time slot, content title, and content description.
10 . A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored therein, the instructions, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to:
generate a graphical user interface comprising a scrolling portion and a background portion, wherein the scrolling portion comprises a plurality of live video streams for preselection and selection;
play a first live video stream of the plurality of live video streams in the background portion in response to a preselection of the first live video stream from the scrolling portion; and
remove the scrolling portion from the graphical user interface in response to a selection of the first live video stream.
11 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the instructions further cause the computing system to arrange the plurality of live video streams in the scrolling portion based on a preference of a user.
12 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the preselection of the first live video stream comprises navigating the first live video stream to a focus of the scrolling portion.
13 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , wherein the selection of the first live video stream comprises maintaining the focus on the first live video stream for a predetermined amount of time.
14 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the selection of the first live video stream comprises receiving an input from a user to select the first live video stream.
15 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the scrolling portion further comprises metadata for each live video stream of the plurality of live video streams, the metadata comprising network name, content title, and an image.
16 . The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the background portion further comprises metadata for the first live video stream, the metadata comprising a time slot, content title, and content description.
17 . A system comprising:
a processor; and
a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored therein that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
generate a graphical user interface comprising a scrolling portion and a background portion, wherein the scrolling portion comprises a plurality of live video streams for preselection and selection;
play a first live video stream of the plurality of live video streams in the background portion in response to a preselection of the first live video stream from the scrolling portion; and
remove the scrolling portion from the graphical user interface in response to a selection of the first live video stream.
18 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the instructions further cause the system to arrange the plurality of live video streams in the scrolling portion based on a preference of a user.
19 . The system of claim 17 , wherein the preselection of the first live video stream comprises navigating the first live video stream to a focus of the scrolling portion.
20 . The system of claim 19 , wherein the selection of the first live video stream comprises maintaining the focus on the first live video stream for a predetermined amount of time.
