    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for operating a user application including a user rendered context operating on a user device and maintaining a current render tree, and a user programmer context operating on a cloud computing system. The user rendered context of the user application can receive an input; and send, responsive to receiving the input, an event notification to the user programmer context of the user application. The user rendered context can further receive, from the user programmer context, a difference tree to update the current render tree, and update the current render tree based on the difference tree.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for a port-connected television upgrader system. An embodiment operates by receiving a fetch command from a first instance of an application executing locally on a host device physically connected to a media device through a port of the media device. The fetch command is provided to the media device executing a second instance of the application to fetch a file associated with displaying an interface of the application on the media device. Metadata corresponding to the file that was retrieved by the media device is received. A rendering command corresponding to the interface is determined and provided to the media device that is configured to display the interface of the application responsive to executing the rendering command.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to embodiments for securely reconfiguring a media playback device. For example, a method may include determining whether a media playback device is being controlled by a user. In response to determining that the media playback device is not being controlled by the user, the method may further include: causing display of a pictograph that includes an encrypted payload with information for wirelessly connecting to the media playback device and is configured to be scanned by a client device; determining whether a request from the client device to wirelessly connect to the media playback device is a valid request; in response to the request being valid, wirelessly connecting the client device to the media playback device via a soft access point; and receiving, at the media playback device, information for reconfiguring the media playback device.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for a computing device upgrading system over a wireless network. An embodiment operates by determining that a computing device is connected to an upgrader device over a wireless network connection. It is determined that an upgrader mode of the computing device is activated based on the determination that the wireless network connection to the upgrader device is active. A command at is received at the computing device. It is determined that a speed of the wireless network connection exceeds a threshold. The command is transmitted to the upgrader device based on both the determination that the upgrader mode of the computing device is active and the determination that the speed of the wireless network connection exceeds the threshold. At the computing device, a response from the upgrader device executing the command is received, and content is output.
