Abstract
Systems and methods for generating a channel sequence for display via an abbreviated on-screen guide are disclosed herein. Channel tuning commands are entered via a user interface of a computing device. Channel tuning data, which describes channel transitions caused by the channel tuning commands, is stored in a buffer. Based on the channel tuning data, a channel family comprising a plurality of channels is generated. A determination is made as to whether a currently tuned channel is included in the channel family. In response to determining that the currently tuned channel is included in the channel family, an on-screen guide, which comprises an abbreviated channel listing of the plurality of channels of the channel family, is generated for display.
