Abstract
A digital content playback application (“app”) for a digital platform may be used for receiving content and for optionally generating or modifying, and then using an audio profile of a first user. The app may also be executed to modify, within the app, audio of a digital content per the audio profile. For example, a built-in media player incorporated into the app may be used to modify the audio of the digital content within the app per the audio profile prior to outputting the audio to the digital platform.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- executing an application (“app”) of a digital platform to allow a user to select digital content from a plurality of content choices;
- responsive to user selection of the digital content via the app, receiving the digital content from a content source;
- configuring the app with an audio profile chosen from a plurality of audio profiles;
- decrypting and decompressing the digital content;
- modifying a decrypted audio portion of the digital content per the chosen audio profile;
- outputting the modified decrypted audio portion using the app;
- and
- playing the modified decrypted audio portion at a client device according to the chosen audio profile;
- wherein the plurality of audio profiles are:
- different from each other, each associated with a same user, each tailored to a different frequency response of a different speaker configuration.

An assembly, comprising:
- at least one processor configured with instructions to:
- execute an application (“app”) of a digital platform to allow a user to select digital content from a plurality of content choices;
- responsive to user selection of the digital content via the app, receive the digital content from a content source;
- configure the app with an audio profile chosen from a plurality of audio profiles;
- decrypt and decompress the digital content;
- modify a decrypted audio portion of the digital content per the audio profile;
- output the decrypted modified audio portion using the app;
- and

- wherein the plurality of audio profiles are:
- different from each other, each associated with a same user, each tailored to a different frequency response of a different speaker configuration.
8 more elements
An apparatus, comprising:
- at least one computer storage that is not a transitory signal and that comprises instructions executable by at least one processor to:
- execute an application (“app”) of a digital platform to allow a user to select digital content;
- responsive to user selection of the digital content via the app, access the digital content;
- load, into the app, an audio profile chosen from a plurality of audio profiles;
- modify, using the app, an audio portion of the accessed digital content per the audio profile;
- and
- play, according to the audio profile, the modified audio portion through the app at a client device;
- wherein the plurality of audio profiles are:
- different from each other, each associated with a same user, each tailored to a different frequency response of a different speaker configuration.
