1. A system, comprising:
one or more circuits configurable for handling a plurality of media feeds, wherein the one or more circuits are configured to:
select, based on a feedback signal corresponding to an output signal of a media player, a media feed from the plurality of media feeds; and
configure a transmit signal for transmittal to the media player, wherein the transmit signal comprises a plurality of channels, and wherein, to configure the transmit signal, the one or more circuits are configured to:
identify a signature, from a plurality of unique signatures, based on the feedback signal, wherein the signature is associated with the selected media feed;
select one channel from the plurality of channels based on the identified signature;
convey the selected media feed over the selected one channel; and
convey a different one of the plurality of unique signatures over a remaining one or each of remaining ones of the plurality of channels.
