Systems and methods are presented to allow coordination between media end devices such that a user interface on a first end device may be used to manage audio calls, media playback, or the like, on a second end device. The first end device establishes a first communications channel to a source device and a second communications channel to a second end device. The second end device may also have a communications channel to the source device. The first end device communicates with the second end device on the second communications channel to exchange command and control information to influence operation between the second end device and the source device. The source device, however, is unaware of the second communications channel between the first and second end devices.
An end device that is a first end device, comprising:
A method of controlling an end device, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored thereon that when executed by a suitable processor cause the processor to perform a method comprising:
The computer readable medium of claim 17 wherein the user configuration setting is a persistent setting, which is a user selected default setting, being stored and associated with either of the first or second end device.
The computer readable medium of claim 18 further comprising a plurality of user selected default settings, wherein each of the user selected default settings dependent upon at least one of an identified one of a plurality of users, an identified one of a plurality of second end devices, and an identified presence of the one of the plurality of second end devices.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
