Abstract:
A network media system forms a group comprising a first networked device and a second networked device using a first media playback protocol. The network media system includes the first networked device and the second networked device. The network media system determines a group coordinator for the group using the first media playback protocol. The network media system transmits, to a media source device, a group network identity using a second media playback protocol. The media source device and one of the first networked device and the second networked device are configured to use the first media playback protocol and the second media playback protocol. The first media playback protocol and the second media playback protocol are incompatible.

Claim (Index 1):
Tangible, non-transitory computer-readable media comprising instructions encoded therein, wherein the instructions, when executed by one or more processors, cause a first playback device to perform a method comprising:\n receiving, via a first media playback protocol, a command to enable a particular playback setting; receiving, via the first media playback protocol, a command to form a group with a second playback device for synchronous media playback, wherein the first playback device is configured to use the first media playback protocol; forming, via the first media playback protocol, the group comprising the first playback device and the second playback device; receiving, via a second media playback protocol from a media source device, a first media stream comprising audio data for playback, wherein the first playback device and the second playback device are configured to use the second media playback protocol, wherein the first media playback protocol and the second media playback protocol are incompatible; determining that the particular playback setting is enabled and that the group comprises the first playback device and the second playback device; and based on determining that the particular playback setting is enabled and that the group comprises the first playback device and the second playback device, transmitting, to the second playback device, the audio data in a second media stream using the second media playback protocol.
