## Abstract

Methods, systems, media devices, and non-transitory, machine-readable media to facilitate asynchronous wireless media transfer are disclosed. A request for video service from a content provider system via a wireless network may be received. A media device may be configured to provide an asynchronous session for subsequent video content transfer. The configuring may utilize a network layer and a transport layer without utilizing a presentation layer and an application layer. Specifications of asynchronous session parameters may be created to define delivery operations with the asynchronous session. An encrypted token, corresponding to the specifications, may be created. Opening of the asynchronous session may be requested by transmitting the encrypted token to the content provider system from the transport layer. At the session layer, the asynchronous session may be started for video content delivery in accordance with the specifications of the asynchronous session parameters. Display of the video content may be caused.

## Claims

### Claim 1

(canceled)

### Claim 2

A system comprising:
one or more processing devices; and
memory communicatively coupled with and readable by the one or more processing devices and having stored therein processor-readable instructions which, when executed by the one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising:
processing an electronic communication corresponding to a request for video service from a content provider system that is communicably couplable with a media device via a wireless network;
consequent to the request, using specifications of parameters corresponding to rules for delivery of video content with an asynchronous session within which the video content is to be transferred from the content provider system to the media device via the wireless network, wherein the specifications of parameters were previously created in a previous session of the media device; and
facilitating the asynchronous session within which video packets corresponding to the video content are delivered from the content provider system to the media device in accordance with the specifications of parameters corresponding to the rules for the delivery of the video content with the asynchronous session.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The system as recited in claim 2, wherein a token was created in the previous session and stored by the media device, the token corresponding to the specifications of parameters corresponding to the rules for the delivery of the video content with the asynchronous session.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The system as recited in claim 3, wherein the media device transmits an instance of the token via the wireless network to the content provider system to facilitate the asynchronous session.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The system as recited in claim 4, wherein the transmitting the instance of the token is responsive to the content provider system prompting the media device to indicate acceptance of previously agreed terms.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The system as recited in claim 5, wherein the transmitting and the prompting occurs at a transport layer.

### Claim 7 (depends on 3)

The system as recited in claim 3, wherein the media device determines whether to use the token to prepare a presentation at a presentation layer or to use the token to initiate a session at an application layer.

### Claim 8 (depends on 2)

The system as recited in claim 2, wherein, when the media device receives a message from the wireless network, the media device identifies a type of packet for the asynchronous session at a session layer.

### Claim 9

One or more non-transitory, machine-readable media having machine-readable instructions thereon which, when executed by one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform:
processing an electronic communication corresponding to a request for video service from a content provider system that is communicably couplable with a media device via a wireless network;
consequent to the request, using specifications of parameters corresponding to rules for delivery of video content with an asynchronous session within which the video content is to be transferred from the content provider system to the media device via the wireless network, wherein the specifications of parameters were previously created in a previous session of the media device; and
facilitating the asynchronous session within which video packets corresponding to the video content are delivered from the content provider system to the media device in accordance with the specifications of parameters corresponding to the rules for the delivery of the video content with the asynchronous session.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The one or more non-transitory, machine-readable media as recited n claim 9, wherein a token was created in the previous session and stored by the media device, the token corresponding to the specifications of parameters corresponding to the rules for the delivery of the video content with the asynchronous session.

### Claim 15 (depends on 9)

The one or more non-transitory, machine-readable media as recited in claim 9, wherein, when the media device receives a message from the wireless network, the media device identifies a type of packet for the asynchronous session at a session layer.

### Claim 16
