  • Patent number: 10846045
    Abstract: Audio processing systems and methods are configured to receive audio program content and to reproduce the audio program content in accord with at least one audio parameter. The audio parameter is stored with a relation to an identifier associated with the audio program content. The audio parameter may be later retrieved for reproduction of associated audio program content.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20190258368
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes accessing a first configuration file defining a first key event that associates a first interface interaction with a first intended action; detecting, by an event handling process, a first user input at a user interface; determining whether the first user input corresponds to the first interface interaction; responsive to the first user input corresponding to the first interface interaction, providing an identifier of the first intended action; accessing a second configuration file defining a second key event that associates a second interface interaction with a second intended action; detecting a second user input at the user interface; determining whether the second user input corresponds to the second interface interaction without rebooting the device after accessing the second configuration file; and responsive to the second user input corresponding to the second interface interaction, providing an identifier of the second intended action.

  • Publication number: 20190258375
    Abstract: A device includes an input/output element; a device controller configured to detect a user input event; an embedded web browser; and a state controller executing as an interpreted language application on the embedded web browser, the state controller configured to receive an indication of the user input event; determine an updated state of the input/output element responsive to the user input event; change a state of the input/output element to the updated state; and cause the input/output element to be updated according to the updated state.

  • Publication number: 20080215169
    Abstract: A method of selecting an audio source includes the step of providing an audio system that includes a source of audio data which can be supplied to a speaker to produce sound. A portable audio source device is enabled to be operatively connected to the audio system. When the portable audio source device is operatively connected to the audio system, the audio system automatically stops supplying audio data from the source of audio data to the speaker and starts supplying audio data from the portable audio source device to the speaker to produce sound.
