Abstract

Systems and methods for generating notification interfaces based on media broadcast access events are provided. The system can determine, based on one or more attributes of the plurality of historic content streams accessed by a broadcast receiver device, an arrangement of the plurality of content items corresponding to the one or more live events. The system can generate display instructions for the broadcast receiver device that cause the broadcast receiver device to display a notification including the plurality of content items with a broadcast of a live event of the one or more live events according to the arrangement. The system can transmit the display instructions to the broadcast receiver device to cause the broadcast receiver device to display the notification including the plurality of content items with the broadcast of the live event of the one or more live events according to the arrangement.

Claims (35)

1 . A method, comprising:

maintaining, by one or more processors coupled to memory, a plurality of historical wagers associated with a player profile, each of the plurality of historical wagers associated with a historical type of live event;

determining, by one or more processors coupled to memory, for a receiver device of an entity during a historic time period, a respective access frequency of a plurality of historic content streams, each historic content stream of the plurality of historic content streams corresponding to a common type of live event;

identifying, by the one or more processors, based on a player profile associated with the receiver device, a plurality of wager opportunities, each wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities corresponding to a respective live event;

ranking, by the one or more processors, each wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities based on a type of the respective live event of the wager opportunity matching the common type of live event and matching the historical type of live event of at least one of the plurality of historical wagers;

responsive to selecting and ranking the plurality of wager opportunities:

generating, by the one or more processors, display instructions for the receiver device that cause the receiver device to display a plurality of content items according to the ranking with a broadcast of a live event currently presented via the receiver device, each content item of the plurality of content items corresponding to a respective wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities each content item of the plurality of content items including a respective actionable object that causes the receiver device to navigate to a respective broadcast of the respective live event identified by the respective wager opportunity and a second actionable object that causes the receiver device to transmit a request to place a wager for the respective wager opportunity; and

transmitting, by the one or more processors, the display instructions to the receiver device to cause the receiver device to display the plurality of content items with the broadcast of the live event.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising maintaining, by the one or more processors, a streaming profile with the receiver device, the streaming profile generated based on the respective access frequency and one or more respective attributes of each historic content stream of the plurality of historic content streams.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein each of the plurality of wager opportunities are ranked further based on the one or more respective attributes of at least one historic content stream of the plurality of historic content streams.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising identifying, by the one or more processors, the receiver device based on a signal received from the receiver device that indicates the receiver device is displaying the broadcast of the live event.

5 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising selecting, by the one or more processors, the plurality of wager opportunities based on the respective access frequency.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of wager opportunities are ranked further based on at least one occurrence within at least one respective live event associated with the plurality of wager opportunities.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the one or more processors, a request to authorize identification of content streams accessed by the receiver device; and

identifying, by the one or more processors, the plurality of historic content streams accessed by the receiver device responsive to the request.

8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein each content item further identifies the respective live event associated with a respective wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities.

9 . A system, comprising:

one or more processors coupled to non-transitory memory, the one or more processors are further configured to:

maintain a plurality of historical wagers associated with a player profile, each of the plurality of historical wagers associated with a historical type of live event;

determine, for a receiver device of an entity during a historic time period, a respective access frequency of a plurality of historic content streams, each historic content stream of the plurality of historic content streams corresponding to a common type of live event;

identify, based on a player profile associated with the receiver device, a plurality of wager opportunities, each wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities corresponding to a respective live event;

rank each wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities based on a type of the respective live event of the wager opportunity matching the common type of live event and matching the historical type of live event of at least one of the plurality of historical wagers;

responsive to selecting and ranking the plurality of wager opportunities:

generate display instructions for the receiver device that cause the receiver device to display a plurality of content items according to the ranking with a broadcast of a live event currently presented via the receiver device, each content item of the plurality of content items corresponding to a respective wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities each content item of the plurality of content items including a respective actionable object that causes the receiver device to navigate to a respective broadcast of the respective live event identified by the respective wager opportunity and a second actionable object that causes the receiver device to transmit a request to place a wager for the respective wager opportunity; and

transmit the display instructions to the receiver device to cause the receiver device to display the plurality of content items with the broadcast of the live event.

10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to maintain a streaming profile with the receiver device, the streaming profile generated based on the respective access frequency and one or more respective attributes of each historic content stream of the plurality of historic content streams.

11 . The system of claim 10 , wherein each of the plurality of wager opportunities are ranked further based on the one or more respective attributes of at least one historic content stream of the plurality of historic content streams.

12 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to identify the receiver device based on a signal received from the receiver device that indicates the receiver device is displaying the broadcast of the live event.

13 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to select the plurality of wager opportunities based on the respective access frequency.

14 . The system of claim 9 , wherein each of the plurality of wager opportunities are ranked further based on at least one occurrence within at least one respective live event associated with the plurality of wager opportunities.

15 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the one or more processors are further configured to:

receive a request to authorize identification of content streams accessed by the receiver device; and

identify the plurality of historic content streams accessed by the receiver device responsive to the request.

16 . The system of claim 9 , wherein each content item further identifies the respective live event associated with a respective wager opportunity of the plurality of wager opportunities.
