Abstract

See full text

An interactive program guide system is provided in which an interactive program guide offers a user access to content from multiple available media types. The program guide system allows the designation of at least one channel as a favorite channel based on user selection from multiple channels of at least one media source. The multiple channels are associated with one or more of the available media types. The program guide system also allows the designation of at least one of the available media types as a preferred media type for a current viewing session independently from designating a favorite channel. In addition, a user has the option of navigating among only favorite channels of the preferred media types.
