METHOD AND SYSTEM OF ADAPTING QUALITY FOR PRESENTING CONTENT ON A COMPUTING DEVICE

1 . A method of adapting quality for presenting content on a computing device, comprising:

detecting current display and/or audio settings of the computing device;

detecting maximum possible display and/or audio settings of the computing device; and

in response to determining a difference between the current and the maximum possible display and/or audio settings, prompting a user of the computing device for adjusting the current display and/or audio settings to different display and/or audio settings.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further including determining a price for adjusting the current display and/or audio settings, wherein prompting the user includes providing a price level for respective display and/or audio settings.

3 . The method of claim 2 , wherein the price level is in proportion to an improvement of display and/or audio settings incurred by the respective display and/or audio settings.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further including receiving a selection of display and/or audio settings from the user and applying the selected display and/or audio settings to the computing device.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein prompting the user includes displaying a first graphical indicator slidable by the user between a first and a second position, said first position corresponding to a minimum possible display setting of the computing device and said second position corresponding to a maximum possible display setting of the computing device, said first graphical indicator indicating said current display setting.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein prompting the user includes displaying a second graphical indicator slidable by the user between a first and a second position, said first position corresponding to a minimum possible audio setting of the computing device and said second position corresponding to a maximum possible audio setting of the computing device, said first graphical indicator indicating said current audio setting.

7 . The method of claim 1 , wherein detecting current display settings includes detecting a screen size of the computing device.

8 . A system of adapting quality for presenting content on a computing device, comprising:

a first component adapted for detecting current display and/or audio settings of the computing device;

a second component adapted for detecting maximum possible display and/or audio settings of the computing device; and

a third component adapted for prompting a user of the computing device, in response to determining a difference between the current and the maximum possible display and/or audio settings, for adjusting the current display and/or audio settings to different display and/or audio settings.

9 . The system of claim 8 , further including a fourth component adapted for determining a price for adjusting the current display and/or audio setting, wherein the third component is further adapted for providing a price level for respective display and/or audio settings, said price level obtained from said fourth component.

10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the price level is in proportion to an improvement of display and/or audio settings incurred by the respective display and/or audio settings.

11 . The system of claim 8 , further including a fifth component adapted for receiving a selection of display and/or audio settings from the user and for applying the selected display and/or audio settings to the computing device.

12 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the third component is further adapted for displaying to the user a first graphical indicator slidable by the user between a first and a second position, said first position corresponding to a minimum possible display setting of the computing device and said second position corresponding to a maximum possible display setting of the computing device, said first graphical indicator indicating said current display setting.

13 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the third component is further adapted for displaying to the user a second graphical indicator slidable by the user between a first and a second position, said first position corresponding to a minimum possible audio setting of the computing device and said second position corresponding to a maximum possible audio setting of the computing device, said first graphical indicator indicating said current audio settings.

14 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the first component is further adapted for detecting a screen size of the computing device.
