Abstract
Controlling and managing home electronic devices is disclosed. A remote control may obtain from a wireless home entertainment controller registration information. The remote control may then determine an instruction to switch content from a first source device to content from a second source device based on a sensed motion of the remote control. The remote control may then send to the wireless home entertainment controller the instruction.
