MODIFYING PLAYBACK OF REPLACEMENT CONTENT RESPONSIVE TO DETECTION OF REMOTE CONTROL SIGNALS THAT MODIFY OPERATION OF THE PLAYBACK DEVICE

摘要

In one aspect, an example method includes (i) providing, by a playback device, replacement media content for display; (ii) determining, by the playback device, that a remote control transmitted to the playback device an instruction configured to cause a modification to operation of the playback device while the playback device displays the replacement media content; (iii) determining, by the playback device based on the instruction, an overlay that the playback device is configured to provide for display in conjunction with the modification; (iv) determining, by the playback device, a region within a display of the playback device corresponding to the overlay; and (v) modifying, by the playback device, a transparency of the region such that the overlay is visible through the replacement media content when the playback device provides the overlay for display.
