Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed herein for classifying, based on most recent information associated with recorded content, the recorded content to an appropriate deletion classifier. A media guidance application may receive information about an event that is associated with a recorded media asset. The media guidance application may determine, based on the event and a current deletion classifier associated with the recorded media asset, whether the current deletion classifier associated with the recorded media asset needs to be updated to a new deletion classifier. The media guidance application may make this determination by accessing a deletion classification database containing rules for classifying recorded media assets into a variety of deletion classifiers. Upon determining that the current deletion classifier associated with the recorded media asset needs to be updated to a new deletion classifier, the media guidance application may update the current deletion classifier to the new deletion classifier.

Claims (46)

1. A method comprising:

storing a first deletion classifier associated with a recorded media asset;

determining that an event associated with the recorded media asset corresponds to a stored rule;

in response to the determining that the event associated with the recorded media asset corresponds to the stored rule, updating the first deletion classifier to a second deletion classifier based on the stored rule; and

generating, for display, the second deletion classifier, a media asset identifier of the recoded media asset, and a notification comprising a reason for updating the first deletion classifier to the second deletion classifier.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the event comprises a version of the recorded media asset being available through a media consumption platform associated with a user, and

wherein the notification comprises an indication that the version of the recorded media asset is available through the media consumption platform.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the event comprises consumption of a portion of the recorded media asset, and

wherein the notification comprises the consumption of the portion of the recorded media asset.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the event comprises consumption of a portion of a version of the recorded media asset that is available from a different source, and

wherein the notification comprises an indication of the consumption of the portion of the version of the recorded media asset was consumed from the different source.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, for display, one or more additional media asset identifiers associated with a same deletion classifier as the second deletion classifier that are spatially organized to be associated with the second deletion classifier.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, for display, one or more selectable options to change the second deletion classifier associated with the recorded media asset.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, for display, at least one other deletion classifier and at least one other media asset identifier associated with the at least one other deletion classifier, the at least one other media asset identifier being spatially organized to be associated with the at least one other deletion classifier.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the stored rule comprises a trigger event, an initial deletion classifier, and a final deletion classifier.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the determining that the event associated with the recorded media asset corresponds to the stored rule comprises:

identifying the event associated with the recorded media asset matches the trigger event of the stored rule.

10. The method of claim 8 , wherein the updating the first deletion classifier to the second deletion classifier based on the stored rule comprises:

updating the first deletion classifier from the initial deletion classifier to the final deletion classifier of the stored rule.

11. A system comprising:

control circuitry configured to:

store a first deletion classifier associated with a recorded media asset;

determine that an event associated with the recorded media asset corresponds to a stored rule; and

in response to the determining that the event associated with the recorded media asset corresponds to the stored rule, updating the first deletion classifier to a second deletion classifier based on the stored rule; and

input/output circuitry configured to:

generate, for display, the second deletion classifier, a media asset identifier of the recoded media asset, and a notification comprising a reason for updating the first deletion classifier to the second deletion classifier.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the event comprises a version of the recorded media asset being available through a media consumption platform associated with a user, and

wherein the notification comprises an indication that the version of the recorded media asset is available through the media consumption platform.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the event comprises consumption of a portion of the recorded media asset, and

wherein the notification comprises the consumption of the portion of the recorded media asset.

14. The system of claim 11 , wherein the event comprises consumption of a portion of a version of the recorded media asset that is available from a different source, and

wherein the notification comprises an indication of the consumption of the portion of the version of the recorded media asset was consumed from the different source.

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

generate, for display, one or more additional media asset identifiers associated with a same deletion classifier as the second deletion classifier that are spatially organized to be associated with the second deletion classifier.

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

generate, for display, one or more selectable options to change the second deletion classifier associated with the recorded media asset.

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

generate, for display, at least one other deletion classifier and at least one other media asset identifier associated with the at least one other deletion classifier, the at least one other media asset identifier being spatially organized to be associated with the at least one other deletion classifier.

18. The system of claim 11 , wherein the stored rule comprises a trigger event, an initial deletion classifier, and a final deletion classifier.

19. The system of claim 18 , wherein the control circuitry is configured to determine that the event associated with the recorded media asset corresponds to the stored rule by:

identifying the event associated with the recorded media asset matches the trigger event of the stored rule.

20. The system of claim 18 , wherein the control circuitry is configured to update the first deletion classifier to the second deletion classifier based on the stored rule by:

updating the first deletion classifier from the initial deletion classifier to the final deletion classifier of the stored rule.
