Port-connected television upgrader device

A system, comprising:

• a memory;
• and
• at least one processor coupled to the memory and configured to perform operations comprising:
• receiving a command to execute a function of an application of a media device, wherein a user account is logged into the application based on at least a username and password;
• in response to receiving the command, determining whether a connection speed or bandwidth of a databus connection between the media device and an upgrader device is above a threshold;
• in response to determining that the connection speed or the bandwidth is above the threshold, provide at least the username and the password to the upgrader device, wherein the upgrader device comprises computing hardware that is configured to execute the application logged in to the user account based on the at least the username and password faster than the media device, and wherein both the media device and the upgrader device are logged into the user account;
• providing the command to the upgrader device;
• receiving a response to the command from the upgrader device;
• and
• outputting content corresponding to executing the response.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a media device, cause the media device to perform operations comprising:

• receiving a command to execute a function of an application of the media device, wherein a user account is logged into the application based on at least a username and password;
• in response to receiving the command, determining whether a connection speed or bandwidth of a databus connection between the media device and an upgrader device is above a threshold;
• in response to determining that the connection speed or the bandwidth is above the threshold, providing, by the media device, at least the username and the password to the upgrader device, wherein the upgrader device comprises computing hardware that is configured to execute the application logged in to the user account based on the at least the username and password faster than the media device, and wherein both the media device and the upgrader device are logged into the user account;
• providing the command to the upgrader device;
• receiving a response to the command from the upgrader device;
• and
• outputting content corresponding to executing the response.
