Abstract

Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for controlling a media device and a display device using audio commands. In so doing, some embodiments operate to suppress noise from the display device, and enhance audio commands from users. Some embodiments operate by determining a position of the display device and de-enhancing audio from the display device based on the display device position. The position of the user is determined, and audio from the user based on the user position is enhanced. Then, a command in the enhanced user audio is identified, and the media device and/or the display device are caused to operate according to the command.
