Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer readable media may be operable to facilitate recording scheduling based on calendar information. A multimedia device may track viewing history by one or more devices and/or one or more users, and the multimedia device may maintain a view count for one or more programs being viewed at certain times. The multimedia device may receive calendar information associated with one or more users, wherein the calendar information includes one or more calendar entries. The multimedia device may determine whether any time slots associated with the calendar entries overlap or encompass any time slots associated with one or more programs that are typically viewed according to the viewing history, and if a time slot associated with a calendar entry does overlap or encompass a time slot of one or more programs, the multimedia device may automatically schedule the one or more programs for recording.
