First Claim
1. A computer implemented system for monitoring in a vehicle the hands-free accessibility of a plurality of media items from a media item repository for play at the vehicle, the computer implemented system comprising:
- a vehicle entertainment computing system configured to;
receive a first plurality of predetermined rules relating to voice-activated access of one or more media items playable at the vehicle entertainment computing system, wherein requests for access to the one or more media items are received by a voice-recognition engine;
detect violations of one or more of the first plurality of predetermined rules in relation to the accessibility of the one or more media items based on metadata associated with the one or more media items;
if one or more violations are detected, output a prompt at the vehicle entertainment computing system regarding the presence of one or more violations in relation to the accessibility of the one or more media items;

Abstract
A system for monitoring hands-free accessibility of media items for play at a vehicle includes a vehicle entertainment computing system (VECS) configured to receive predetermined rules for voice-activated access of the media items. Violations of the rules are detected based on media item metadata. If a violation is detected, a prompt is outputted. Media items are retrieved and played based on voice-activated requests. One embodiment includes a method for monitoring hands-free accessibility of media items for play at a vehicle. A system for formatting media items for accessibility at a VECS includes a media item incompatibility resolution system (MIIRS) configured to resolve violations of the predetermined rules by receiving additional rules relating to formatting violating media items. The media items are searched and the violations addressed by reformatting the media items for voice-activated access. The media items are outputted to the MIIRS.

20. A computer implemented system for formatting a plurality of media items for accessibility at a vehicle entertainment computing system from a media item repository, the computer implemented system comprising:
-
a media item incompatibility resolution system configured to; resolve one or more violations of a first plurality of predetermined rules with respect to accessing media items at a vehicle entertainment computing system, wherein the first plurality of predetermined rules are stored in a vehicle entertainment computing system, by; receiving a second plurality of predetermined rules relating to formatting the one or more media items violating the first plurality of predetermined rules; based on the second plurality of predetermined rules, searching a plurality of media items stored in a media item repository for the one or more violating media items requiring formatting; addressing the one or more violations of the first plurality of predetermined rules by reformatting the one or more violating media items based on the second plurality of predetermined rules to enable voice-activated access of the one or more reformatted media items; and outputting the one or more reformatted media items to the media incompatibility resolution system.
