Abstract: A display device according to an embodiment includes: a display, a communication interface comprising communication circuitry configured to communicate with at least one of a first control device including a first key and a second control device including the first key, and at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, configured to execute at least one instruction to cause the display device to: receive a first control signal corresponding to the first key, perform a first operation to output a first full screen by executing the first control signal based on the first control signal being received from the first control device while first content is being played, and perform a second operation different from the first operation to output a second full screen different from the first full screen based on the first control signal being received from the second control device while the first content is being played.

Abstract: In response to a detected presence of an intended target appliance within a logical topography of controllable appliances identity information associated with the intended target appliance is used to automatically add to a graphical user interface of a controlling device an icon representative of the intended target appliance and to create at a Universal Control Engine a listing of communication methods for use in controlling corresponding functional operations of the intended target appliance. When the icon is later activated, the controlling device is placed into an operating state appropriate for controlling functional operations of the intended target appliance while the Universal Control Engine uses at least one of the communication methods to transmit at least one command to place the intended target appliance into a predetermined operating state.
