Summary:In one embodiment, a remote control interface is provided that allows a user to interact with a programmable multimedia controller from a mobile device having a touch screen display, in a largely "head-up" manner, while providing visual feedback on the mobile device to confirm touch input. The user may enter touch input, including taps, holds swipes and pans, on the touch screen display. Such touch input may be processed and communicated to the programmable multimedia controller, which displays an on-screen display menu system on a display device coupled to the programmable multimedia controller. The user may direct the majority of his or her attention to the on-screen display menu system on the display device. However, some visual feedback may also be displayed on the touch screen display of the mobile device that is specific to the type of touch input received on the touch screen display.
