Abstract
Techniques for automatically configuring and controlling a conference room mode setting of a digital media device are described. A digital media device can be programmed to enter a conference room operating mode upon a trigger event. The trigger event can include a time-based trigger or an event-based trigger. In the conference room mode, the digital media device can provide for display an identifier of the digital media device and an identifier of a network for accessing the digital media device. The identifier of the digital media device and identifier of a network can be used by a mobile device to connect to the digital media device and to submit content to the digital media device. Once configured, the digital media device can enter the conference room mode automatically, without requiring a user to select the conference room mode using a remote control.
