Abstract
Systems and methods for detecting a conflict between viewing selections of two users. In some aspects, the method comprises generating for display a first media asset on a user equipment device, receiving a second request from a second user to generate for display a second media asset on the user equipment device, determining a first priority and a second priority associated with the first user and the second user, and based on determining that a first scheduled time period of the first media asset and a second scheduled time period of the first media asset overlap and the first priority is higher than the second priority, generating for display on the user equipment device an indication of a conflict between the first request and the second request.
