    摘要: A first device listens for a communication token across an audio bandwidth covering a transmit frequency one or more audio frequency broadcasting device. The first device receives at least one token broadcast from the one or more broadcasting devices. The first device demodulates and decodes each received token. One or more computing devices validates each decoded token. The first device determines, based on the validating, a broadcasting device of the broadcasting devices with which to establish a communications channel The one or more computing devices generates a response token based on the token received from the determined device. The first device broadcasts the generated response token in a response band of the determined device. The determined device demodulates decodes, and validates the token broadcast from the first device. Upon determining the token broadcast from the first device valid, the first device and the determined device establish a wireless communication channel.

    摘要: A synchronization device, for use in a system of synchronization devices, to synchronize a received data stream with data streams received at other synchronization devices, and including a synchronization buffer receiving a data stream; an event detector detecting an event in the received data stream and to broadcast event information including an event detection time; and a delay computation element receiving, from each synchronization device, event information including the event detection time, to determine a delay time of a most delayed data stream, and to calculate a delay time to be applied to the received data stream to synchronize the received data stream with the most delayed data stream.

    摘要: An electronic device that reduces relative drift is described. In particular, an interface circuit in the electronic device may calculate, based on differences between transmit times when packets were transmitted by a second electronic device and receive times of the packets, relative drift as a function of time between a clock in the interface circuit and a second clock in the second electronic device. Then, the interface circuit may adjust, based on the relative drift, a clock circuit that provides the clock to eliminate the relative drift, and may store the adjustments to the clock circuit. Furthermore, when a wireless reset occurs, the interface circuit may adapt the clock circuit based on the stored adjustments to reduce the relative drift while the interface circuit restores frequency lock with the second clock based on additional packets with additional transmit times that are received from the second electronic device.

    摘要: An example computing device in a media playback system receives a first request to create a first zone scene including a first preconfigured grouping of zones including a first zone and a second zone, and based on the first request, causes creation and storage of the first zone scene. The computing device receives a second request to create a second zone scene including a second preconfigured grouping of zones including the first zone and a third zone, and based on the second request, causes creation and storage of the second zone scene. While displaying a representation of the first zone scene and a representation of the second zone scene, the computing devices receives a third request to invoke the first zone scene, and based on the third request, causes the first zone scene to be invoked such that the first zone and the second zone become configured for synchronous playback of media.
