Abstract
A control device such as a mobile device can be used as a secondary display to provide a controller user interface (UI) element corresponding to a contextual display user interface element displayed via a television or other device. An example method includes receiving a media data stream from a media content provider and transmitting the media data stream to a display device for playback. After determining that the media data stream comprises a contextual display user interface element, the method involves causing the controller device to present a controller user interface element corresponding to the contextual display user interface element. An indication of a user input via the controller user interface element is received, after which a signal is transmitted to the media provider that corresponds to the received indication of user input.
