1. A method for enhancing the quality of visual prompts in an interactive media response system, said method comprising:
- determining a video coder/decoder (codec) used by a thin device;
accessing a visual prompt to be displayed on said thin device; and
modifying the display parameters of said visual prompt such that at least one character of said visual prompt is aligned with a blocking artifact generated by said video codec.

Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention recite a method for enhancing the quality of visual prompts in and interactive media response system. In one embodiment, a video coder/decoder (codec) used by a thin device is determined. A visual prompt to be displayed on the thin device is accessed and the display parameters of the visual prompt are modified such that at least one character of the visual prompt is aligned with a blocking artifact generated by the video codec.
