Devices in a multi-media environment may be controlled by a controller that accepts gestures as inputs. The gestures may represent characters and/or symbols. These symbol gestures may correspond to different commands based on a current operating mode of a multi-media device in the multi-media environment. A set top box may obtain information relating to the operating mode of the multi-media device, and may provide the information to the controller. The symbol gestures may be translated to a symbol-specific command for the multi-media device by the set top box or the controller. Some gestures may persist across multiple devices or services as corresponding to one command. |
