Systems and methods for providing recording of a blacked-out media content item

1. A method for providing blacked out media content item for recording, the method comprising:

receiving a request from a first user device associated with a profile to record a media content item scheduled to broadcast on a second user device associated with the profile, at a second location, wherein the first user device is different from the second user device;

determining that the media content item is subject to a blackout during a blackout period within a blackout region;

determining that the first user device and the second user device are associated with the profile;

determining that the first user device is at a first location outside the blackout region;

in response to determining that the first user device is outside the blackout region, recording the media content item to the memory of the second user device during the blackout period; and

transmitting the recorded media content item from the second user device to the first user device via a communication network after expiry of the blackout period.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

permitting the recorded media content item to be played on the first user device when the blackout period has expired.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

generating for display the recorded media content item on the first user device when the blackout period has expired.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

storing the recorded media content item in the first user device after transmission of the recorded media content item; and

causing a play back of the stored media content item.

5. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

causing a play back of the recorded media content on the first user device.

6. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

determining a channel scheduled to broadcast the media content item on the second user device at the second location.

7. The method of claim 6 further comprising:

generating for display a program blackout on the channel scheduled to broadcast the media content item during the blackout period.

8. The method of claim 6 further comprising:

determining another channel different from the channel scheduled to broadcast the media content item;

recording the media content item on the another channel.

9. The method of claim 1 wherein the blackout period is an entire time of the broadcast of the media content item.

10. The method of claim 1 wherein the blackout period is a portion of time of the broadcast of the media content item.

11. A system for providing blacked out media content item for recording, the system comprising:

an input/output (I/O) circuitry configured to:

receive a request from a first user device associated with a profile to record a media content item scheduled to broadcast on a second user device associated with the profile, at a second location, wherein the first user device is different from the second user device;

a control circuitry communicably coupled to the I/O circuitry configured to:

determine that the media content item is subject to a blackout during a blackout period within a blackout region;

determine that the first user device and the second user device are associated with the profile;

determine that the first user device is at a first location outside the blackout region;

in response to determining that the first user device is outside the blackout region, record the media content item on the memory of the second user device during the blackout period; and

transmit the recorded media content item from the second user device to the first user device via a communication network after expiry of the blackout period.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

permit the recorded media content item to be played on the first user device when the blackout period has expired.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

generate for display the recorded media content item on the first user device when the blackout period has expired.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

store the recorded media content item in the first user device after transmission of the recorded media content item; and

cause a play back of the stored media content item.

15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

cause a play back of the recorded media content on the first user device.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

determine a channel scheduled to broadcast the media content item on the second user device at the second location.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

generate for display a program blackout on the channel scheduled to broadcast the media content item during the blackout period.

18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to:

determine another channel different from the channel scheduled to broadcast the media content item;

record the media content item on the another channel.

19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the blackout period is an entire time of the broadcast of the media content item.

20. The system of claim 11 , wherein the blackout period is a portion of time of the broadcast of the media content item.
