==TRANSMITTING MESSAGES TO A DISPLAY DEVICE BASED ON DETECTED AUDIO OUTPUT - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240220192 titled 'TRANSMITTING MESSAGES TO A DISPLAY DEVICE BASED ON DETECTED AUDIO OUTPUT

==Simplified Explanation==
The patent application describes a system for transmitting messages to a display device based on detected audio output from the device. A digital media player can control the audio output of the display device and confirm the processing of messages by the device.

* The system involves transmitting messages to a display device based on detected audio output.
* A digital media player can control the audio output of the display device using a transmission protocol.
* Instructions are sent to the remote control device to confirm the processing of messages by the display device.
* The digital media player can determine if the display device is enabled to receive communication via the transmission protocol.
* Attributes associated with the audio output are monitored to ensure they are within predetermined thresholds.

==Potential Applications==
This technology can be applied in various settings where remote control of audio output on display devices is necessary. It can be used in home entertainment systems, public display screens, and digital signage.

==Problems Solved==
This technology addresses the need for efficient communication between digital media players and display devices. It ensures that messages are properly processed and that audio output is controlled effectively.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

provided herein are system, apparatus, device, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for transmitting messages to a display device based on detected audio output from the display device. in a given embodiment, a digital media player can transmit a message to the display device to control the audio output of the speaker using a transmission protocol, and transmit a set of instructions to the remote control device to confirm the display device processed the message by determining whether an attribute associated with the audio output from the speaker is within a predetermined threshold. in response to receiving a message that an attribute associated with the audio output is within a predetermined threshold, the digital media player can determine that the display device is enabled to receive communication via the transmission protocol.
