It should be kept in mind that both the foregoing general description and the detailed description below are given by way of example and explanation and therefore do not necessarily limit the present invention. The attached drawings, which are incorporated into this report and form part of it, illustrate the inventive material. Together,
'3/19 the descriptions and drawings serve to explain the principles of the invention.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Figure 1 is a block diagram that illustrates a system for automatically recording multiple instances of content from one or more programming providers.
Figure 2 is a block diagram that illustrates a system for storing multiple instances of content.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS The following description includes exemplary systems, methods and computer programs that incorporate various elements of the present invention. However, it must be borne in mind that the described invention can be practiced in various forms in addition to those described in this document.
Users of content recipients may wish to access different instances of content transmitted at the same time and / or substantially at the same time by content providers. For example, many viewers want to watch different television programs that occupy the same window on the broadcast grid, such as the different television programs associated with the major television networks that are broadcast during peak hours from 7 pm to 10 pm . Content receivers can try to solve this problem using several tuners that can each play and / or record separately different instances of content transmitted at the same time. However, a separate tuner may still be necessary for each instance of simultaneous or substantially simultaneous transmission or content received that the user of a content receiver wishes to view and / or record.
'. À 4/19 Furthermore, in addition to the separate tuners required for each instance of content, the content receiver may need sufficient resources to decode, demodulate and store each of the content instances desired by the user.
Figure 1 is a block diagram that illustrates a system 100 for automatically recording multiple instances of content from one or more programming providers. The automatic recording of multiple content instances made possible by system 100 allows users of content receivers to access different content instances transmitted at the same time and / or substantially at the same time by content providers. “Multiple instances of content” can be, for example, different programs, films, episodes of a program, and so on. Thus, several instances of content can be different episodes of the same program, or different programs. It should be borne in mind that the various instances of content can be recorded at the same time using the concretisations described in this document.
Furthermore, it should be borne in mind that a first group of several instances of content can occupy a first segment of time, while a second group of several instances of content can occupy a second segment of time. The embodiments described in this document can record the first group in the first half and the second group in the second half.
In various broadcast systems, content providers transmit content to several different content receivers through one or more frequency bands using one or more satellites. Each multiplexed signal contained in the frequency band (sometimes called a transponder) is configured to include data for one or more instances of content, such as one or more television programming channels. The data for each of the
:: 5/19 instances of content included in each frequency are encoded using one or more CWs (control words), which can then be encrypted to generate one or more ECMs (header control messages), which can in turn , be included in the data.
Typically, a content receiver tunes to one or more frequency bands to receive the multiplexed signal that contains data for a specific programming channel, or group of channels, using one or more tuners.
The content receiver processes only a subset of the programming channels, keeping the data associated with the specific programming channel and discarding the data received by the tuned frequency band and multiplexed signal associated with other programming channels.
The content receiver decrypts the ECM included in the data associated with the specific programming channel to obtain the CW, decode the data using the CW and store and / or transmit the data (for example, uncompressed audio and video data and reconstructed) to one or more reproduction devices
production.
As Figure 1 illustrates, in this implementation, one or more content providers select multiple instances of content 101 to be recorded automatically, such as using predefined recording parameters.
For example, a content provider selects that all television events defined as “prime time events” associated with all channels defined as “prime time television channels” for a specific time period defined as “prime time ”Are recorded automatically.
In other examples, the content provider selects television events associated with programming channels for a specific time period (such as half an hour, several hours and / or an entire day of programming) in response to user selections.
After the content provider selects the various content instances, they are multiplexed using a multiplexer 102. The multiplexed signal (which includes the y '6/19 multiple selected multiplexed content instances) is then encoded by a 105 scrambler using one or plus CWs 103. The CW is encrypted to generate an ECM, which is included in the multiple-signed signal. The encoded multiplexed signal is then included in a transmission over a frequency band (for example, cable, via satellite), which is then emitted to one or more satellites 106 for transmission. Satellite 106 receives the frequency band (uplink frequency band) and then transmits the multiplexed signal to several content receivers in a translated frequency band (downlink frequency band), such as a content receiver - with a 107 tuner.
Tuner 107 tunes the frequency band to the various instances of content (which may occur in response to one or more recording instructions received by the content receiver as a tuner from the content provider). The data received by the tuned frequency is demultiplexed by a demultiplexer 109 and then decoded by a descrambler 110 (ie, decoder) using the CW before being stored in a non-transitory storage medium 111 (which may have the form, among others, of: a magnetic storage medium, an optical storage medium, a magneto-optical storage medium, a random access memory, an erasable programmable memory, a flash memory and so on) with based on recording parameters, such as predefined recording parameters. Demultiplexer 109 obtains ECM 104, which is sent to a smart card 108, which decrypts ECM 104 to obtain CW 103 for descrambler 110. Thus, the various content instances are all made available to the receiver's user content (until removed from the non-transitory storage medium) without the need for many tuners to receive each of the various instances of content and without the need for the smart card to decrypt multiple ECMs.
: '7/19 In some implementations, the various instances of content are stored in the same file.
It should be kept in mind that tuner 107, smart card 108, demultiplexer 109, descrambler 110 and / or storage medium 111 can all be arranged in the same housing or housing.
An example of a device that can incorporate these elements is the content receiver 202, discussed below with reference to Figure 2. Although system 100 is illustrated in Figure 1 and described above with several specific components configured according to a specific structure, it is understood that this is the case with the example guide and that other structures with fewer components and / or additional components are possible without departing from the scope of the present invention.
For example, in various implementations, the various instances of content can be individually coded using the control word before multiplexing.
In another example, in some embodiments, the data received by the tuned frequency can be demultiplexed before being individually decoded using the control word.
In some implementations of the system in Figure 1, multiple instances of content can be recorded at the same time from a single transponder and stored in the non-transitory storage medium 111 of the content receiver in the form of a single file with multiple instances of recorded content .
When playing a content instance from the single file with the various recorded instances of content, the content receiver reads the file incrementally in order to play the content instance while filtering the other contents of the file (for example, other instances of content within the file). For example, five instances of content are received on a transponder and recorded at the same time by the content receiver based on predefined recording parameters.
: '8/19 dos, and each of these content instances is recorded at a variable average bit rate. More specifically, an instance of content is received by the transponder and recorded by the content receiver at an average of 1 Mb / s (Megabits per second), a second instance of content is recorded at an average of 2 Mb / s, an third to an average of 3 Mb / s, a fourth to an average of 4 Mb / s and a fifth to an average of 5 Mb / s. In this example, the transponder receives and the content receiver records the five instances of content at an aggregated bit rate of 15 Mb / s (that is, the sum of 1 Mb / s, 2 Mb / s, 3 Mb / s) s, 4 Mb / s and 5 Mb / s). Thus, the reproduction of one of the five instances of content involves using the content receiver to read the entire file at 15 Mb / s, but discarding all instances of content except the desired one. In alternative embodiments, each instance of content recorded at the same time can be recorded as a separate file on the storage medium 111.
In some implementations, the aggregate recording bit rate is less than the maximum available recording bit rate. Thus, the aggregate bit rate of 15 Mb / s for a transponder is less than the maximum available bit rate, for example, up to 40 Mb / s. Therefore, the reproduction of a recorded content instance involves the content receiver determining the aggregated recording bit rate of the file with the various content instances recorded at the same time and reproducing the content instance based on the recording bit rate. aggregate.
In another example, a file with ten instances of content recorded at the same time is recorded at a bit rate of 40 Mb / s (for example, the maximum aggregate bit rate of the transponder), in which, to reproduce one of the ten instances of content recorded at a recording bit rate (or average bit rate) of 4 Mb / s, it is necessary to use the content receiver so that it reads the file
: '9/19 vo in increments of 4 Mb / s of the recorded total of 40 Mb / s. A first program associates with the content recorded in the first 4 Mb / s (that is, from 1 to 4 Mb) out of a total of 40 Mb / s, a second program associates with the content recorded in the second 4 Mb / s (ie 5 to 8 Mb) and so on.
In the examples above, it is contemplated that the various instances of content are recorded based on statistical multiplexing using communicatively interconnected video compressors that determine the data bandwidth necessary to compress the instance of content that will be recorded. This allows the recording (and playback) bitrate of a content instance to be variable within the recording stream, and therefore the various instances of content can be recorded each at varying bit rates. In a given transponder, as the percentage of the transport flow being recorded increases, the variability of the recording data drops. That is, if 100 percent of the stream is being recorded (for example, at the maximum aggregate bit rate of the transponder), then the variability is zero. As a result, the average recording bitrate for many variable streams is less noisy. In the examples above, it is also contemplated that the aggregate recording bit rate is calculated periodically or in real time.
Figure 2 is a block diagram illustrating a system 200, which potentially includes a content provider 204 and a content receiver 202. System 200 can be incorporated at least in part into the system in Figure 1. The system receiver 202 content (such as a set-top box) can receive and, in some cases, transmit content (such as television programming and content for display on the screen) to other receivers to a remote viewer, and the like. Generally, content provider 204 is a cable or satellite programming service provider and broadcasts content
: 10/19 to the receiver via a network, an example of what satellite 106 is illustrated in Fig. 1. Alternative networks include a wired network, such as a cable network, a wireless network, such as a network of terrestrial broadcasting, the Internet, an Ethernet network or other local network, combinations of any of the above and their similars. It should be kept in mind that the content receiver 202 can incorporate several elements of Figure 1, such as tuner 107, demultiplexer 109, smart card 108, multiplexer 110 and / or storage 111. These elements may not be illustrated specifically in Figure 2 as they were discussed with reference to Figure
1. These elements can be controlled, for example, by the processing unit 224 of Figure 2. Furthermore, the data storage unit 226 can be the same as the storage device of Figure 1.
The system may also include or connect to a content display device 206, which receives and displays the content (such as a television) and a controller 208 (such as a remote control), which transmits data as signals control to the content receiver
202.
In general terms, content receiver 202 receives content from content provider 204 and, optionally, from other external sources, such as other content receivers and servers accessed over a network. The content receiver 202 processes and / or decodes the content, in addition to transmitting it to the content display device 206. The content receiver 202 is, for example, a signal decoder, a television receiver, a recorder digital video device, a computing device, an electronic game device or a television that, as a rule, is located at the user's location (such as at the user's home or work). Content receiver 202 is - operable to receive content from content provider 204
: | 11/19 (and / or from another external source) through the transmission link 210. This content is received by the communication unit 220 of the content receiver 202; the communication unit 220 can be analogous to or include one or more of tuner 107, demultiplexer 109, descrambler 110 and / or smart card 108. Processing unit 224 executes instructions to make the data storage unit 226 (as the non-transitory storage medium 111) records multiple instances of content from multiple programming channels at the same time within a single file, as described above with reference to Figure 1, and / or to play one of the stored content instances. The transmission unit 228 connects communicatively to the content display device 206 through the transmission link 211. The content provider 204 (such as a satellite programming company, a cable company, an Internet service provider, for example) example, an online video service or a video provider over the Internet, and the like) is usually located at a remote location in relation to the content receiver 202. The content provider transmits content to the receiver's communication unit 220 - it streams content 202 through the transmission link 210. The transmitted content may include metadata that specify recording instructions to the content receiver 202 in order to automatically record multiple instances of content at the same time from various programming channels, as described elsewhere in this document.
The content display device 206 normally connects communicatively to the content receiver 202 and displays the content transmitted by it. Although the content display device 206 and the receiver 202 are illustrated as separate components in Figure 2, the content receiver 202 can be incorporated into the device.
F i 12/19 content display device 206. The content display device 206 is, for example, a television, a computer screen, a video screen or any other display device for displaying content. The content display device 206 connects communicatively to the content receiver 202 via the transmission link 211.
As a rule, controller 208 is located in an area close to content receiver 202 and communicatively connects to content display device 206 via transmission link 212 and content receiver 202 via transmission link 213 The controller is, for example, a remote control, such as a universal remote control, a dedicated remote control or a computing device programmed to send command signals (such as check signals) to the 202 content receiver. 208 can be used to send command signals that instruct the content receiver 202 to record and / or play one or more instances of content.
With reference again to the content receiver 202, the processing unit 224 can be programmed to manage, initiate or otherwise facilitate the recording and / or reproduction of one or more instances of content received from various programming channels carried over a single transponder. For example, four programming channels and the corresponding four instances of content can be recorded at the same time and stored in the data storage unit 226. Upon receipt of one or more suitable commands, which can be transmitted by controller 208, the processing unit 224 retrieves data from data storage unit 226 and formats it for display on the content display device 206. It should be borne in mind that such formatting and display may involve demodulating, decrypting and / or other operations performed by a or more hardware, software and / or firmware elements (not necessarily illustrated) controlled
| At 13/19 sides, as a rule, by processing unit 224. Therefore, actions imputed to the processing unit can be performed by other parts of the content receiver 202 in the direction of the processing unit.
Ss Recording or playback of one or more of the various content instances may involve the processing unit 224 reading metadata associated with an initial frame of the content instance, such as a packet identifier (“PID”) and a presentation time stamp (“PTS”). For example, when playing the content instance, processing unit 224 selects only the PID for the content instance to be played, while ignoring other PIDs from the various content instances recorded at the same time within the file. Generally, PIDs are identifiers associated with data streams, such as content streams and complementary data streams, that identify a channel in the data stream. Several PIDs can be associated with a transponder controlled by the content provider 204 and recorded at the same time using the system in Figure
1. When identifying or selecting the right PID for the content instance played from the file, the content receiver 202 navigates correctly to determine which of the various instances of content recorded at the same time will be displayed.
Generally speaking, the content receiver 202 may include several tuners 107, demultiplexers 109, decamblers 110 and / or other decoders. In some cases, the content can be —modulated from a carrier wave or other signal to be reconstructed, recorded and / or viewed. In many cases, demodulation occurs before decoding. Demultiplexing and decoding can be considered as examples of decoding.
In some embodiments, a single decoder (such as a demultiplexer 109 and / or descrambler 110), or a decoder
E | 14/19 scanner of any type (for example, a demodulator and a decoder) can be associated with several tuners 107. Each tuner can be adjusted to receive a specific frequency band or transponder. Thus, each tuner can receive a different transponder and, therefore, the various instances of content on that transponder.
In this embodiment, the transponders to which each tuner 107 tunes can be encoded with a common control word. In this way, each different tuner transmits the various instances of content received on the transponder corresponding to a single decoder for processing. As the content associated with the various transponders is coded in common, the descrambler 110 can decode all this content relatively efficiently. These various instances of content are then recorded, as described in detail above. In this way, several tuners can be associated with a single descrambler in order to receive and record multiple instances of content from one or more frequency bands / transponders. Therefore, several tuners can be used to receive a greater amount of content than can be transported on a single transponder and all of this content can be demultiplexed and / or decoded by common elements and shared by the tuners. Since a common control word is used to encrypt content carried on different transponders, a single decoder can handle all of that content.
Thus, the various instances of content can be seen as a first set of content and a second set of content, each coded with a common control word, but transported by different carrier frequencies.
It should be borne in mind that several transponders can use the same control word (or another decryption key) it is still 15/19 that a single descrambler is not used. That is, several transponders can be encoded with the same control word and a tuner 107 or communication unit 220 can receive corresponding data from each of these transponders. Each tuner or unit transmits the received signal to a descrambler dedicated to that tuner to decode, when then each of the various instances of content can be recorded on a storage medium (either separately or in one or more aggregated files).
In alternative embodiments, the various instances of content received from the various transponders can be recorded on the storage medium without decryption or decryption. Decoding can occur when the content is played. That is, the totality of the various instances of content received from the transponders can be stored as a single file still encrypted (or a file still encrypted by transponder, in some embodiments) on the 226 storage unit. The descrambler can only decode the content during playback. In this embodiment, the decoded content can be retrieved from storage medium 226, sent to the single descrambler and decoded before performing the operations to identify and display specific content, as described above.
In some embodiments, the system checks whether the content on several transponders has been encoded using the same control word. This can be indicated, for example, in corresponding metadata - corresponding to one or more of the content instances, or to one or more of the transponders. Metadata can identify all content and / or all transponders encoded with the same control word. Then, the processing unit 224 can receive this metadata and, in response to them, instruct the communication unit 222 to receive data from each of the transponders. The communication unit
: 16/19 tion 222 can have multiple tuners 107 in this embodiment. The received content can then be stored and reproduced, as described elsewhere in this document. It should also be borne in mind that certain embodiments employ a user command, in addition to metadata, to instruct communication unit 222 to receive data. Also, a command to receive and record instances of content can be initiated by the content provider
204. It may be useful or desirable to secondarily encode some subset of the various instances of content in addition to encoding it with the common control word. For example, this can allow a subset of content to be distributed to certain users. This subset of content can be additional or enhanced content. For example, the subset of content can be a “behind the scenes” video associated with some other part of the various instances of content and can only be sent to users who have paid an extra fee. The subset of content can be related to one or more instances of the other multiple instances of content, or it can be completely separate. Users who can access the subset of content can be those who have paid a fee, live or are otherwise associated with a certain geographic area, users corresponding to certain demographics, and so on. The subset of content can be encoded twice: once with the control word in common with the various instances of content and / or transponders and once with a specific subkey. Thus, the subset of content can be received and initially decoded according to other parts of this invention, but it can remain encoded by the subkey, although all other instances of content have been fully decoded. The subset - can be saved along with the rest of the various instances of content
: | 17/19 do. It must be kept in mind that the decoding of all or any content can occur either before or after recording the content on the data storage unit 226, as appropriate to the actualization in question.
In one embodiment, the subset of content may not be played by anyone other than an authorized user. The subset of content can be received and stored by everyone, but inaccessible to unauthorized users. Unauthorized users may be prevented from playing the subset of recorded content, but be able to see it in a list of recorded content. The unauthorized user may be presented with an option to unblock the content, such as purchasing it or taking some other action.
In alternative embodiments, the subset of content can be stored with the rest of the various instances of content (either in the form of different files or in a single file, as appropriate) and not be detectable by unauthorized users. Thus, only authorized users can view and / or retrieve the subset of content.
In the present invention, the disclosed methods can be implemented in the form of instruction sets or software readable by a device. In addition, it is understood that the specific order or hierarchy of the steps of the revealed methods are nothing more than models of exemplary approaches. In other embodiments, the specific order or hierarchy of the steps of the method can be reorganized and still remain within the scope of the relevant inventive material. The attached claims of the method contain elements of the various steps in an exemplary order and are not necessarily intended to be limited to the specific order or hierarchy presented.
: 18/19 The described invention can be practiced in the form of a computer program, or software, which can include a machine-readable non-transitory medium with instructions stored therein, which can be used to program a computer system (or other electronic devices) to perform a process according to the present invention.

Ts 171 “Device for Receiving Multiple Instances of Content and Methods for Recording the Same and Decrypting Content” Summary
A content receiver records at the same time several instances of content from various programming channels based on instructions from the content provider.
Systems and methods use content receivers to record these multiple instances from at least a single transponder.
In some embodiments, several transponders have a common control word so that the content carried on each referred transponder is received, decoded and recorded at the same time.
In addition, a single demodulator can be associated with several tuners, so that the single demodulator processes all the content received from the transponders with control words and / or other encryption mechanisms in common.
