Systems and methods for aiding user content navigation are described. An exemplary system may include an electronic device configured to receive audiovisual content and/or user inputs. The electronic device may additionally include one or more outputs coupled with a display device. The electronic device may further include one or more processors as well as memory, which when executed by the one or more processors, cause them to perform one or more navigation functions to receive a channel change command to adjust from a first channel to a second channel. The one or more processors may further be caused to determine that the second channel is presenting advertising content instead of program content, and determine that a third channel is presenting program content. The one or more processors may further be caused to adjust the output to the third channel.

Methods and systems for content navigation among programs presenting advertising content

Systems and methods for performing automatic content modification or removal are described. An exemplary system may include an electronic device configured to receive video content and/or user inputs. The electronic device may further include one or more processors as well as memory, which when executed by the one or more processors, cause them to review each frame of the received video content and identify instances of sequential frames providing similar content. The one or more processors may further be caused to determine whether at least one of the sequential frames may be removed, remove one or more of the sequential frames to produce modified video content, and transmit the modified video content to one or more display devices.
