Abstract

Customized highlight shows for sporting events, entertainment events, and/or the like, may be generated and presented. Source content with a representation of one or more events, such as sports events, may be obtained. A user may designate an attribute and/or a viewing length. A subset of the source content with highlights from within the source content may be selected such that the subset has the attribute and/or viewing length designated by the user. A customized highlight show including the subset may be generated and outputted to the user, for example, on a display screen. The attribute may include a team playing in the sporting events, a player playing in the sporting events, and/or a type of play occurring in the sporting events. The subset may optionally be generated based on teams and/or players in one or more fantasy sports teams.

57 . The computer-implemented method of claim 54 , wherein the one or more user preferences includes a highlight show length, wherein the highlight show length is determined by at least one of: receiving the highlight show length from the user, analyzing previous user viewing habits, or analyzing one or more industry standards.

58 . The computer-implemented method of claim 57 , wherein receiving the highlight show length from the user includes:

displaying, by the one or more processors, a plurality of highlight show lengths on the user interface; and

receiving, by the one or more processors, a user length selection via the user interface of the highlight show length.

59 . The computer-implemented method of claim 54 , wherein the first attribute includes at least one of: a team corresponding to the one or more events, a player corresponding to the one or more events, a coach corresponding to the team, one or more penalties corresponding to the one or more events, a length of the one or more events, a statistic corresponding to the one or more events, or a play type corresponding to the one or more events.

60 . The computer-implemented method of claim 54 , the computer-implemented method further comprising:

generating, by the one or more processors, content corresponding to the highlight show; and

displaying, by the one or more processors, the content on the user interface.

61 . A computer system for presenting a customized highlight show to a user, the computer system comprising:

a memory having processor-readable instructions stored therein; and

one or more processors configured to access the memory and execute the processor-readable instructions, which when executed by the one or more processors configures the one or more processors to perform a plurality of functions, including functions for:

receiving source content corresponding to one or more events;

receiving a user selection of a first attribute corresponding to the source content;

selecting a subset of the source content based on the first attribute, wherein the subset comprises a plurality of highlight segments depicting one or more portions of the source content;

determining one or more user preferences for a plurality of transitions, the one or more user preferences indicating whether to include a spoiler transition or a discreet transition as a transition for an upcoming segment;

generating the transition between a first highlight segment and a second highlight segment of the plurality of highlight segments based on the one or more user preferences, the transition including the spoiler transition or the discreet transition;

generating a highlight show comprising the subset and the transition; and

displaying the highlight show on a user interface.

62 . The computer system of claim 61 , the functions further comprising:

receiving a user interaction with the highlight show; and

displaying an updated user interface based on the user interaction.

63 . The computer system of claim 61 , wherein determining the one or more user preferences is based on at least one of: receiving the one or more user preferences from the user, observing behavior and actions corresponding to the user, receiving the one or more user preferences from a user profile, creating one or more inferences based on content viewed by the user, receiving the one or more user preferences from a database, or one or more user demographics.

64 . The computer system of claim 61 , wherein the one or more user preferences includes a highlight show length, wherein the highlight show length is determined by at least one of: receiving the highlight show length from the user, analyzing previous user viewing habits, or analyzing one or more industry standards.

65 . The computer system of claim 64 , wherein receiving the highlight show length from the user includes:

displaying a plurality of highlight show lengths on the user interface; and

receiving a user length selection via the user interface of the highlight show length.

66 . The computer system of claim 61 , wherein the first attribute includes at least one of: a team corresponding to the one or more events, a player corresponding to the one or more events, a coach corresponding to the team, one or more penalties corresponding to the one or more events, a length of the one or more events, a statistic corresponding to the one or more events, or a play type corresponding to the one or more events.

67 . The computer system of claim 61 , the functions further comprising:

generating content corresponding to the highlight show; and
