Apparatus for adapting a presentation of media content to a requesting device

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, comprising instructions which when executed by a processor facilitate performance of operations comprising:

• receiving first stereoscopic media content at a media processor for presentation at a display device coupled to the media processor;
• receiving second stereoscopic media content at the media processor;
• determining if a communication device is capable of supporting multiplex of images;
• generating transcoded content by transcoding the second stereoscopic media content according to rendering capabilities of the communication device;
• and
• transmitting to the communication device the first stereoscopic media content content and the transcoded content over a cellular communication network, wherein the first stereoscopic media content and the transcoded content are presented at the communication device via the multiplex of images such that the first stereoscopic media content is viewable in stereoscopic form at the communication device via first shutter glasses and the transcoded content is viewable in stereoscopic form at the communication device via second shutter glasses.

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a communication device, a command from a shutter glasses device, wherein the command is generated by the shutter glasses device responsive to capturing a user input at a user interface of the shutter glasses device;
• transmitting, by the communication device, control information to a media processor responsive to receiving the command from the shutter glasses device;
• receiving, by the communication device, stereoscopic media content from the media processor, wherein the stereoscopic media content is modified by the media processor according to the control information;
• and
• transmitting, by the communication device, the stereoscopic media content to the shutter glasses device for viewing in stereoscopic form via the shutter glasses device.
