Methods and systems for dynamic creation of hotspots for media control
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing one or more programs configured for execution by one or more processors of a first electronic device, the one or more programs comprising instructions for:
- receiving, from a second electronic device that is distinct from the first electronic device, an indication of availability of a media presentation system for use by the first electronic device;
in accordance with detecting the indication of availability of the media presentation system, sending a request for access to the media presentation system;
in response to sending the request for access to the media presentation system, receiving, from the second electronic device, an authentication token that allows the first electronic device to access the media presentation system through submission of media control requests that include the authentication token; and
sending, to a server system, a media control request that includes the authentication token and causes the server system to send a command corresponding to the media control request to the media presentation system.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and/or devices for sharing control of media presentation systems are described herein. In one aspect, a first electronic device receives, from a second electronic device, an indication of availability of a media presentation system (“MPS”) for use by the first electronic device. In accordance with detecting the indication of availability of the MPS, the first electronic device sends a request for access to the MPS. In response to sending the request for access to the MPS, the first electronic device receives, from the second electronic device, an authentication token that allows the first electronic device to access the MPS through submission of media control requests that include the authentication token. The first electronic device also sends, to a server system, a media control request that includes the authentication token and causes the server system to send a command corresponding to the media control request to the MPS.

17. A method of controlling media presentation, performed at a first electronic device with a processor and memory storing instructions for execution by the processor, the method comprising:
-
receiving, from a second electronic device that is distinct from the first electronic device, an indication of availability of a media presentation system for use by the first electronic device; in accordance with detecting the indication of availability of the media presentation system, sending a request for access to the media presentation system; in response to sending the request for access to the media presentation system, receiving, from the second electronic device, an authentication token that allows the first electronic device to access the media presentation system through submission of media control requests that include the authentication token; and sending, to a server system, a media control request that includes the authentication token and causes the server system to send a command corresponding to the media control request to the media presentation system.

18. A first electronic device, comprising:
-
one or more processors; and memory storing one or more programs which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the first electronic device to; receive, from a second electronic device that is distinct from the first electronic device, an indication of availability of a media presentation system for use by the first electronic device; in accordance with detecting the indication of availability of the media presentation system, send a request for access to the media presentation system; in response to sending the request for access to the media presentation system, receive, from the second electronic device, an authentication token that allows the first electronic device to access the media presentation system through submission of media control requests that include the authentication token; and send, to a server system, a media control request that includes the authentication token and causes the server system to send a command corresponding to the media control request to the media presentation system.
