Adjusting a playback device
First Claim
1. A playback device comprising:
- one or more processors;
a network interface; and
tangible, non-transitory computer readable storage media having stored therein instructions executable by the one or more processors, wherein the instructions, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the playback device to perform functions comprising;
receiving, via the network interface over a local area network (LAN) from a controller device, an instruction to obtain a sound profile for the playback device from a location outside of the LAN;
in response to receiving the instruction to obtain a sound profile for the playback device from a location outside of the LAN, (i) obtaining the sound profile via the network interface from a location outside of the LAN, and (ii) updating one or more audio playback parameters at the playback device based on the sound profile received from the location outside of the LAN;
after updating the one or more audio playback parameters at the playback device based on the sound profile, receiving a command to playback audio from the controller device; and
in response to receiving the command to playback audio, playing back an audio signal according to the sound profile.

Abstract
Certain embodiments provide methods and systems for managing a sound profile. An example playback device includes a network interface and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored therein instructions executable by the processor. When executed by the processor, the instructions are to configure the playback device to receive, via the network interface over a local area network (LAN) from a controller device, an instruction. The example playback device is to obtain, based on the instruction, via the network interface from a location outside of the LAN, data comprising a sound profile. The example playback device is to update one or more parameters at the playback device based on the sound profile. The example playback device is to play back an audio signal according to the sound profile.
