Abstract

Embodiments are provided for media playback controller interfaces, interface layouts, and interactions for facilitating a user's navigation and control of a media playback system. Implementation of a controller interface may involve displaying in an information window, content associated with a first tab at a position directly above the information window, displaying a second tab at a position directly below the information window, and in response to a first input, causing (i) the second tab to be displayed at a position directly below the first tab, (ii) the information window to be displayed at a position directly below the second tab, and (iii) the information window to display content associated with the second tab. Other configurations of tab and information window displays, some of which may be modified in response to user interactions with the controller interface, are also provided.
