Macrovision's interactive program guides (IPGs) enable consumers to discover relevant, new content and navigate to the programming that interests them most. Macrovision licenses IPG technology to third party guide developers, including cable and satellite providers, consumer electronics manufacturers, set-top box manufacturers, interactive television software providers, and program guide providers in the online, computer, and mobile phone businesses.

Third party guide developers can license Macrovision interactive program guide (IPG) products and technologies. Macrovision IPGs are incorporated into consumer electronics products, including plasma, DLP, and LCD televisions as well as DVD recorder-based products. Patent licensing is also available to online and mobile providers.

Macrovision has license and distribution agreements for its interactive program guides (IPGs) with the majority of U.S. direct broadcast satellite (DBS), multi system operators (MSO), and IPTV (IP Television) providers—as well as some international MSOs and DBS providers. Licensees have the option of a service agreement to deploy Macrovision IPGs or a patent license which allows them to deploy Macrovision IPGs or another IPG.
