A mobile device application adapted to provide multimedia content to a target canvas is described. The application includes sets of instructions for: establishing a communication link with an external system associated with the target canvas; rendering multimedia content for playback by the target canvas; and sending the rendered multimedia content to the target canvas over the communication link. A mobile device application adapted to execute web-based applications in a browser associated with an external system includes sets of instructions for: establishing a communication link with the external system; accessing a web-based application; and rendering content associated with the application and sending the rendered content to the external system for display in the browser. A system adapted to provide multimedia content includes: a target adapted to display multimedia content; a host adapted to generate multimedia content; and a remote server adapted to at least partially control the display of multimedia content.
