PERMISSIONS BASED CONTROL OF THIRD PARTY SELECTION OF DISPLAY OPERATING MODE

摘要

This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus for altering the selected operating mode and image formation characteristics of a content item displayed on a display device. The content item can include a license header that includes a permission code and a preferred operating mode. The preferred operating mode can specify a selected operating mode or image formation characteristics preselected for display of the content item. Control logic can check the permission code against a permission code table to determine one or more permissions associated with the content item. A valid permission code can allow the control logic to alter the current selected operating mode and/or image formation characteristics based on the selected operating mode and/or image formation characteristics specified by the preferred operating mode in the license header.
