Abstract:
A gaming system includes a game console that executes an application that creates and plays soundtracks through the gaming system. The application allows a user to create soundtracks by copying audio tracks from one or more audio sources. A user-created soundtrack can be associated with a particular game such that the user-created soundtrack is played during execution of the game instead of the game's default soundtrack.

Abstract:
A user control for dynamically adjusting the scope of a set of content, information, and/or data and a user interface (UI) for representing the same are provided. A scope control tool represented, e.g., by a selectable icon, may be accessible from all screens in the UI and may be applied to both traditional list-type views of content or data, as well as to control screens, tools, or application screens. A method for applying scope to a set of data and representing the data on a UI in a manner which provides a readily visible indication of the amount of data in the data set and which provides for the prominent presentation of that data which may be most useful to the user is also provided.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to systems and methods for to an improved user interface shell for small computer devices (SCD)s that execute typical operating systems and application programs. Several embodiments of the present invention are directed to a shell task user interface (STUI) that resides on top of the native operating system and application programs to enable an end-user to conveniently utilize the SCD and its operating system and applications programs in a more convenient way that is characteristic with the ways in which SCDs are typically utilized.
