20090163273 | HANDHELD VIDEO PLAYER AND OPTICAL STORAGE DISC FOR USE THEREWITH - An optical storage disc can be used in a handheld video player that includes a processing module, an interface module for receiving a video signal, and a display device. The optical storage disc includes a first portion that stores conditional access data and a second portion that stores a plurality of operational instructions including a video player application. When the optical storage disc is loaded in the handheld video player and when the plurality of operational instructions are executed by the processing module, the video player application descrambles the video signal received from the interface module using the conditional access data and displays video content from the video signal on the display device. | 06-25-2009 |
20090163281 | HANDHELD VIDEO PLAYER AND OPTICAL STORAGE DISC WITH ADVERTISING DATA FOR USE THEREWITH - An optical storage disc can be used in a handheld video player that includes a processing module, a interface module for receiving a video signal, and a display device. The optical storage disc includes a first portion that stores a plurality of advertising data; and a second portion that stores a plurality of operational instructions including a video player application. When the optical storage disc is loaded in the portable game console and when the plurality of operational instructions are executed by the processing module, the video player application decodes the video signal to produce a decoded video signal that includes at least one advertisement from the plurality of advertising data and displays video content from the video signal on the display device. | 06-25-2009 |
20110078721 | DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT FOR MULTIPLE DEVICES AND METHODS FOR USE THEREWITH - Media content is received for a plurality of devices based on a user selection. The media content includes digital rights for the plurality of devices. The media content is transferred to at least one of the plurality of devices in accordance with the digital rights. | 03-31-2011 |
20110288971 | DISTRIBUTED DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT NODE MODULE AND METHODS FOR USE THEREWITH - A digital rights management (DRM) node module for use in a node of a public data includes a node data module that stores DRM data associated with a plurality of digital files, the DRM data including a plurality of DRM identifiers. A packet monitoring module receives the plurality of DRM identifiers from the node data module, that receives packets containing incoming content and compares the incoming content to the DRM identifier, and generates event data when the incoming content matches at least one of the DRM identifiers. A node reporting module receives the event data, and generates node report data based on the event data. | 11-24-2011 |
