Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for presenting a supplemental content asset on a secondary device that is relevant to a primary content asset that is being presented on a primary user device, to enhance the user experience of the primary content asset. A relevant supplemental content asset may be selected based on characteristics of the primary content asset and/or user profile information. Presentation of the supplemental content asset and primary content asset may be coordinated and synchronized by exchange of messages between the primary user device and secondary device.

A method for adjusting an environmental setting comprising:
- receiving a user selection of a primary content asset for output on a first device;
- based on an attribute of the primary content asset, determining a setting for a second device that is located in a same content consumption environment as the first device, wherein the setting corresponds to an output of the second device;
- and
- in response to causing output of the primary content asset by the first device, modifying the output of the second device based on the determined setting.
A system for adjusting an environmental setting comprising control circuitry configured to:
- receive a user selection of a primary content asset for output on a first device;
- based on an attribute of the primary content asset, determine a setting for a second device that is located in a same content consumption environment as the first device, wherein the setting corresponds to an output of the second device;
- and
- in response to causing output of the primary content asset by the first device, modify the output of the second device based on the determined setting.
A method comprising:
- receiving a user selection of a primary content asset for output on a first device, wherein the primary content asset is of a first content type;
- identifying, based on a first attribute of the primary content asset, a supplemental content asset having a second attribute that matches the first attribute, wherein the supplement content asset is of a second content type, different from the first content type;
- determining that a first output setting of the first device restricts output of content matching the second content type and that a second output setting of the second device does not restrict output of content matching the second content type;
- and
- based on determining the first setting and the second setting, causing output of the supplemental content asset on the second device.
