    摘要: A method includes receiving search criteria associated with a user account, sending a first query identifying a first media content item from the server to a device associated with the user account in response to identifying the first media content item that satisfies the search criteria and that is scheduled to be available to a media device associated with the user account and distinct from the device, and sending a second query that identifies a second media content item that satisfies the search criteria from the server to the device in response to lapse of a time period and a determination that a first title associated with the first media content item matches a second title associated with the second media content item and that a first time associated with the first media content item does not match a second time associated with the second media content item.
