Abstract: A multimedia controller for controlling and displaying zones in a multi-zone system is provided. In one example the controller provides a user interface for multiple zones of a media playback system comprising multiple playback devices. The controller identifies respective states associated with each zone of the multiple zones and detects an input to display a list of the multiple zones. In response to detecting the input, the controller determines an order of the multiple zones within the list of the multiple zones and displays, via the user interface, the list of the multiple zones, wherein the list of the multiple zones identifies each zone of the multiple zones in the determined order.

Abstract: Example techniques related to a sub-index of a media index. An example implementation may involve maintaining, on a mobile device, a first index of audio tracks associated with a particular user profile, the audio tracks indexed in the first index consisting of a particular subset of audio tracks that are indexed in a second index. Based on receiving the input data indicating the search query, the mobile device searches, within the first index, for audio tracks corresponding to the search query. If the audio tracks corresponding to the search query are not found in the first index, the mobile device sends to one or more servers of the cloud service, a request to search the second index for audio tracks corresponding to the search query.

Abstract: A system configured as an online marketplace with a high-speed, game-like method for determining which users obtain which products or services in the marketplace is disclosed. One implementation provides a mobile application where users swipe through a presentation of items (products, services, or money) that they can obtain. Users earn credits by giving items or money to other users. Then, they redeem these credits by getting items or money from other users. Thus, a given user alternates between being a “giver” and a “getter,” making pairs of asynchronous trades with two other users. In the selection process to choose an item to receive, users can choose any single item, but may only swipe unidirectionally, meaning that they cannot return and see or choose an item previously rejected. Aspects include a game engine and a set of rules and constraints to create a novel experience for transactional based experiences such as shopping and reservations.

Abstract: Examples provided herein involve a playback history for media items played by playback zones of a media playback system. An example implementation involves a mobile device querying, via a network interface, a database hosted by one or more servers for a particular portion of a playback history stored in the database, the particular portion of the playback history corresponding to media items played by the media playback system during the particular time period. The mobile device displays graphical representations of the particular media items played during the particular time period by the media playback system. The mobile device may receive input data selecting one or more particular media items played during the particular time period by the media playback system and add the selected one or more particular media items to a queue.

Abstract: A commitment is received from a user to obtain an item from a plurality of items to be presented to the user after receiving an exchange credit from the user. Each item is represented individually in sequence for a predetermined duration before showing another item's image. A selection input by the user is monitored. Before the predetermined duration ends, if the presented item's image is rejected by the user, the image is removed, and that item is permanently removed from the items to be offered to the user, and another item's image is presented to the user. In response to the predetermined duration, a presentation of the item's image is graphically varied by visually conveying to the user that an ability to reject the item and view a next item in sequence will end at the end of the predetermined duration unless the user rejects the item.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein involve generating and modifying a sub-index of a media index. An example method may involve receiving requests to play back media items in a media index, tracking the requests to play back the media items in the media index, determining a set of media items from among the media items in the media index based on the tracked requests to play back media items in the media index, and indexing the determined set of media items into a sub-index. The set of media items have been played at least a pre-determined threshold number of times within a pre-determined threshold period of time. The media items in the sub-index are a subset of the media items in the main index.
