Abstract: A multi-sided controlling device automatically makes keys on one or more sides of the controlling device active as a function of an operating mode of the controlling device. One or more sides of such a multi-sided controlling device may also have at least one keycap behind which is positioned an IR transmitter usable when another side of the controlling device is active.

Abstract: A controlling device is automatically configured to issue a communication directly to a first controllable appliance to control a functional operation of the first controllable appliance in the event that the first controllable appliance is determined to be unresponsive to a command communication transmitted to the first controllable appliance via a digital communications link or to issue a communication to a second controllable appliance to control the functional operation of the first controllable appliance via a digital communications link in the event that first controllable appliance is determined to be responsive to a command communication transmitted to the first controllable appliance via a digital communications link.

Abstract: A smart device is provided with a main remote control application that may be configured using information obtained from a QR code. The main remote control application may present images of original remote controls corresponding to devices which are controllable by the configured main remote control application. In connection with a presented image of an original remote control, the display may present icons that are representative of a subset of the buttons of the original remote control. The user interface also allows a user to select amongst the images of the original remote controls to change which appliances are to be controlled via the user interface. A pop-up remote control widget may also be provided which may be invoked without switching to the main remote control application provisioned on the smart device.

Abstract translation: 智能设备提供有可以使用信息配置的主要远程控制应用。 主遥控应用程序可以呈现对应于可由配置的主遥控应用控制的设备的原始遥控器的图像。 结合原始遥控器的呈现图像，显示器可以呈现代表原始遥控器的按钮的子集的图标。 用户界面还允许用户在原始遥控器的图像中进行选择，以通过用户界面来改变要控制哪些设备。 还可以提供弹出式遥控小部件，其可以被调用而不切换到在智能设备上提供的主远程控制应用。
