Then, the method switches from the first mode to a second mode based on the change in the condition. The second mode restricts movement of the media player. The media player is moved from a first position to a second position upon switching to the second mode and the media player continues to play the media program in the second position.

  • Media player operating in multiple modes
    Patent number: 9998781
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method plays, on an interface, a media program in a media player operating in a first mode. A position change of the media player on the interface is determined while the media program is being played in the media player to cause the media player to move to an out of bounds position. The method detects the media player moving to the out of bounds position and upon detecting, automatically performs switching from the first mode to a second mode based on the media player moving to the out of bounds position where the second mode restricts movement of the media player. Also, the method transfers the media player to a new position that is not in the out of bounds position where the media player continues to play the media program in the new position.
