Methods and systems for verifying media guidance data

1. A method comprising:

transmitting, from a server, a media asset for display on a user device;

transmitting, from the server, media guidance data for display on the user device;

receiving a verification request to verify the media guidance data;

in response to receiving the verification request:

extracting a portion of data from the media asset generated for display on the user device;

determining whether the extracted portion of data corresponds to the media guidance data generated for display on the user device;

in response to determining that the extracted portion of data does not correspond to the media guidance data, retrieving updated media guidance data from a first database of media asset; and

transmitting, from the server, the updated media guidance data for display on the user device, wherein the updated media guidance data is graphically accentuated from the media guidance data generated for display to indicate that the updated media guidance data has been verified.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the verification request is triggered in response to a periodic system event.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the verification request is received from a user through a graphical user interface of the user device.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying one or more databases of media asset that includes information about the media asset, the one or more databases including the first database of media asset and a second database of media asset, wherein the first database of media asset was selected to retrieve the updated media guidance data.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

retrieving the media guidance data from the second database of media asset for transmitting for display on the user device;

in response to determining that the media guidance data retrieved from the second database of media asset does not correspond to the extracted portion of data generated for display on the user device, cross-referencing the portion of extracted data with the first database of media asset to determine whether the extracted portion of data matches the media guidance data.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the portion of extracted data corresponds to a scene, a chapter, or a frame of the media asset.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

selecting the portion of data from the media asset that is being displayed when the verification request was received.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprises extracting audio data and video data from the media asset.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the updated media guidance data includes a verification message indicating that the media guidance data has been verified.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the updated media guidance data is presented in a different color than unverified media guidance data.

11. A system comprising:

control circuitry configured to:

transmit, from a server, a media asset for display on a user device;

transmit, from the server, media guidance data for display on the user device;

receive a verification request to verify the media guidance data;

in response to receiving the verification request:

extract a portion of data from the media asset generated for display on the user device;

determine whether the extracted portion of data corresponds to the media guidance data generated for display on the user device;

in response to determining that the extracted portion of data does not correspond to the media guidance data, retrieve updated media guidance data from a first database of media asset; and

transmit, from the server, the updated media guidance data for display on the user device, wherein the updated media guidance data is graphically accentuated from the media guidance data generated for display to indicate that the updated media guidance data has been verified.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the verification request is triggered in response to a periodic system event.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the verification request is received from a user through a graphical user interface of the user device.

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

identify one or more databases of media asset that includes information about the media asset, the one or more databases including the first database of media asset and a second database of media asset, wherein the first database of media asset was selected to retrieve the updated media guidance data.

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

retrieve the media guidance data from the second database of media asset for transmitting for display on the user device;

in response to determining that the media guidance data retrieved from the second database of media asset does not correspond to the extracted portion of data generated for display on the user device, cross-reference the portion of extracted data with the first database of media asset to determine whether the extracted portion of data matches the media guidance data.

16. The system of claim 11 , wherein the portion of extracted data corresponds to a scene, a chapter, or a frame of the media asset.

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

select the portion of data from the media asset that is being displayed when the verification request was received.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the control circuitry is further configured to extract audio data and video data from the media asset.

19. The system of claim 11 , wherein the updated media guidance data includes a verification message indicating that the media guidance data has been verified.

20. The system of claim 11 , wherein the updated media guidance data is presented in a different color than unverified media guidance data.
