Abstract

Described are techniques and systems for providing a virtual controller user interface. The virtual controller user interface of a source media device accepts user input and provides control data based on that input to a target media device. The target media device may process the control data, injecting input events into an operating system of the target media device. An application executing on the target media device may use these inputs.
