Problems solved by technology

However, establishing a pairing between two devices uses a registration process that requires the user to explicitly authorize access to controls from the device, or adding a hardware extension to the device to force pairing over a certain channel, requires a one-time pairing operation
These techniques often require user knowledge of pairing and require coupling hardware that may not be inherent to either the TV or the device
Also, distance and different forms of interference have limitations on performance, and the device interface may only be connected to one TV

Embodiment Construction

[0023] Users are increasingly consuming their content across multiple devices such as smartphones, tablets, PCs, consoles / STBs, televisions, and the like. However, the level of integration of a user's experience across these devices is low. For most users, the experience across device boundaries is quite different. Certain solutions only serve the needs of specific applications. No other content provider can build on those types of solutions. Also, some systems are platform-specific. Where many home appliances with respective types of devices each operate using a different platform, a platform-specific solution allows only a subset of the home appliances to use the system. Additionally, those solutions are inherently single-user, such that the user initiating an action is only the user who is allowed to interact in a meaningful way with the activity resulting from that action. If one person is playing content, another person may not even be able to pause that content (be u...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and system for remote media control. A system enables universal remote media control across multiple platforms, devices, and users. A protocol allows a media controller (such as computer or mobile device) to have access to running activities (such as a television show playing on a media player). The protocol does not require installation of a specific platform application, or a specific user-login / pairing of the media controller with the media player. The system receives commands from a media controller device using a common interface, provides the commands toa remote media player, loads new media content into the media player, based on the commands, and receives state notifications from the media player. The commands and the state notifications include anamespace and a message payload represented as a two-element script array.
