Abstract
Methods and systems enhance user experience of an interactive content delivery service. A main interface screen comprises a background, playing selected streamed content; and a foreground overlay, comprising a vertical bar crossing a horizontal bar. The vertical bar lists content categories, a first category corresponding to content currently available for immediate viewing, and another category corresponding to content designated by the user as favorite content. The horizontal bar comprises thumbnail representations of content in the category selected by the user from the vertical bar. When the first category is selected, a thumbnail representation in the horizontal bar corresponding to the content currently being played includes a first symbol indicating whether the content being played is live or recorded, and a second symbol indicating whether the content is currently being recorded. When the favorite content category in the vertical bar is selected, a favorites button appears in the foreground overlay.
