Abstract: In some implementations, a mobile computing device may participate in the calibration of an output signal of a media device. This calibration process includes storing device-specific calibration data which is related to properties of a light sensor of the mobile device. The mobile device then detects of properties of light emitted by the display device during a presentation to obtain sensor values related to light emitted by the display device during the presentation. The calibration process may also ensure that the mobile device is proximate to the display device prior to obtaining the sensor values. The collected sensor values are adjusted using device-specific calibration data stored to the mobile device to normalize the sensor values relative to a baseline. These normalized sensor values are sent to the media device for use in adjusting the output signal based on the normalized sensor values.

Abstract: In some implementations, a system can be configured to route media data to playback devices based on a context associated with the media data. For example, the media data can include audio and/or video data associated with media items, such as music, movies, television shows, etc. The media data can include audio and/or video data generated by software, such as audio/video output from gaming applications and/or an operating system. The context can be determined based on the source of the media data and the media data can be routed to playback devices based on the determined context. For example, when the context is a media context associated with a media item source, the media data can be routed to remote playback devices for presentation. When the context is a system context associated with a software source, the media data can be presented by a local device.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to select display settings for a display device. Device capabilities may be read from a display device and a determination made whether the device capabilities support other display formats than are read from the display, for example, a high dynamic range (HDR) format or a high resolution format. When the device capabilities do not include an format supported by a video source, video may be driven from the video source to the display device in the format and, if confirmation is received that the display device displays the driven video, settings may be stored for the display device identifying the format as a one supported by the display device. Additionally, interconnect may be tested by estimating noise levels generated by the interconnect to a network connection and/or by estimating network throughput both when video is driven over the interconnect and when it is not. Display formats may be selected for the device based on a maximum data rate of a network connection that can be maintained while the interconnect carries video.

Abstract: A device implementing a system to associate a user account with a content output device includes at least one processor configured to receive an invitation to access content associated with a first user account on another device associated with a second user account, the other device being connected to a local area network. The at least one processor is further configured to send, to a server, a request for authorization to access the content associated with the first user account on the other device associated with the second user account, the request comprising information included with the invitation, and to receive, from the server, the authorization to access the content. The at least one processor is further configured to access, based at least in part on the authorization, the content associated with the first user account on the other device associated with the second user account.

Abstract: User switching for multi-user devices is provided. Each of multiple users of the multi-user device can have multiple external accounts that are each associated with one or more applications installed at the device. The user switching is provided such that each application installed at the device can be operated using user-specific data for the correct account of the correct user. The user switching is provided such that an app developer of an application for the multi-user device does not have to manage multiple data stores for multiple users.

Abstract: A device implementing a system for associating a profile with an active user account includes a processor configured to receive, from an application running on a device, a request to identify an active user account on the device. The processor is further configured to generate, in response to the request, a unique identifier corresponding to the active user account on the device, the unique identifier being distinct from a user account identifier of the active user account. In addition, the processor is configured to provide the unique identifier to the application for differentiation, by the application, of the active user account on the device relative to at least one other account on the device.

Abstract: A device in a payment transaction handoff system may include at least one processor configured to receive a request to perform a payment transaction and identify, using a first communication protocol, a respective device identifier of each of a plurality of proximate devices. The at least one processor is configured to select, based at least in part on a payment factor, a default payment device from the plurality of proximate devices. The at least one processor is configured to transmit, via a second communication protocol, a message to perform the payment transaction, the message comprising the device identifier of the default payment device. In one or more implementations, a first device of the plurality of proximate devices may be associated with a first user account and a second device of the plurality of proximate devices may be associated with a second user account, different from the first user account.
