Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods for indicating media asset access conflicts using a time bar in accordance with various embodiments of the present invention are provided. A media guide display that includes at least some media asset listings and a time bar is generated. A first portion of the time bar representing a first time interval during which media assets, for which a respective media guidance function has been assigned, are scheduled for transmission is identified. A second portion, within the first portion of the time bar, which represents a second time interval during which the scheduled transmission times of the media assets overlap is identified. A first indicator is generated, for display in the first portion, to represent the first time interval. A second indicator is generated, for display in the second portion, to represent the second time interval during which the scheduled transmission times of the media assets overlap.
