Abstract: In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media are described that are associated with menu interfaces for media source and content navigation. In embodiments, an apparatus to control a remote computing device may include a wireless transmitter; a capacitive touchpad; and logic operably coupled with the wireless transmitter and capacitive touchpad. In various embodiments, the logic may be configured to: detect a change in position and/or a velocity of a change in position of a tactile input received at the capacitive touchpad. In various embodiments, the logic may be configured to generate, based at least in part on the detected change in position and/or velocity of the change in position, a signal configured to cause the remote computing device to perform an operation associated with provision of a media content for consumption. In various embodiments, the logic may be configured to transmit the signal with the wireless transmitter directly to a wireless receiver of the remote computing device.

Abstract: In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media (transitory and non-transitory) are described that are associated with contextual information interfaces. In various embodiments, a contextual information interface may be presented in association with a media content on a display. In various embodiments, contemporaneously with the presentation of the contextual information interface, information pertinent to the media content and/or a source of the media content may be obtained from a remote computing device. In various embodiments, one or more selectable elements may be selectively rendered, as part of the contextual information interface, based on the obtained information. In various embodiments, the one or more selectable elements may be operable to cause a computing device to present on the display one or more other media contents pertinent to the media content and/or the source of the media content.

Abstract: In embodiments, apparatuses, methods and storage media are described that are associated with menu interfaces for media source and content navigation. In embodiments, a menu interface may be selectively rendered. In various embodiments, the selective rendering may include selectively rendering a first scrollable arrangement of selectable elements disposed along a first axis to represent sources of media content; and selectively rendering a second scrollable arrangement of selectable elements to represent media contents available from only a selected one of the sources of media content and not unselected ones of the sources of media content, wherein the second scrollable arrangement of selectable elements is disposed along a second axis that extends from the first axis.
