Abstract

Techniques are described for adaptive control of media channel interfaces for delivery of media content over communications systems to transport craft passengers. Embodiments monitor viewership of various media channel offerings provided to transport craft passengers to compute aggregated viewership scores. Based on the scores, respective prominence parameters associated with the various media channel offerings can be automatically updated. Interface control signals can be communicated to cause media channel interfaces being displayed on passenger devices to dynamically and automatically update the graphical listings of the media channel offerings in accordance with the updates to their respective prominence parameters. Dynamically updating the graphical prominence of different media channel offerings can tend to make passengers more likely to view a smaller subset of the media channel offerings, thereby helping to maintain high passenger satisfaction with less network capacity demand.
