Abstract
Systems and methods for processing segment boundary notifications in a digital media receiver are disclosed. One such method includes the step of registering for notification of segment boundary events associated with a first service provided to the digital media receiver. The method further includes receiving a notification of one of the segment boundary events, while tuned to a second service different than the first service; and tuning to the first service responsive to the received notification.
