Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for distributed DCP over internet. A client-side digital content delivery device receives a digital cinema package (DCP) for a digital movie from a remote digital content delivery system. The DCP includes a unique digital watermark applied by the content delivery system. In response to receiving an input to cause playback of the digital movie, the client-side digital content delivery device compares a unique device identifier for a display device paired to the client-side digital content delivery device to an authorized unique identifier. If the unique device identifier matches the authorized unique identifier, the client-side digital content delivery device uses the DCP to causes presentation of the digital movie by the display device paired to the client-side digital content delivery device.

Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a machine-readable storage medium, including executable instructions that, when executed by a processing system including a processor, facilitate performance of operations that include receiving a request for a video-on-demand session through a selected video-application provided at a media processor, instantiating an instance of the selected video-application as an instantiated video-application, wherein the instantiated video-application loads a decryption algorithm for the video-on-demand session, receiving video data from a video service associated with the instantiated video-application, applying the decryption algorithm on the video data to generate decoded video content, and providing the decoded video content to the media processor. Other embodiments are disclosed.

An image processing apparatus includes a storage, a receiver configured to receive a transport stream from a source device, and a processor. According to an aspect, the processor is configured to decrypt encrypted content data obtained from the transport stream received by the receiver, generate index information based on the decrypted content data where the index information generated includes at least one reference corresponding to the encrypted content data to be referenced to display an image of the content data, and store the encrypted content data in association with the index information in the storage.

.[.A unified system of programming communication. The system encompasses the prior art (television, radio, broadcast hardcopy, computer communications, etc.) and new user specific mass media. Within the unified system, parallel processing computer systems, each having an input (e.g., 77) controlling a plurality of computers (e.g., 205), generate and output user information at receiver stations. Under broadcast control, local computers (73, 205), combine user information selectively into prior art communications to exhibit personalized mass media programming at video monitors (202), speakers (263), printers (221), etc. At intermediate transmission stations (e.g., cable television stations), signals in network broadcasts and from local inputs (74, 77, 97, 98) cause control processors (71) and computers (73) to selectively automate connection and operation of receivers (53), recorder/players (76), computers (73), generators (82), strippers (81), etc. At receiver stations, signals in received transmissions and from local inputs (225, 218, 22) cause control processors (200) and computers (205) to automate connection and operation of converters (201), tuners (215), decryptors (224), recorder/players (217), computers (205), furnaces (206), etc. Processors (71, 200) meter and monitor availability and usage of programming..]. .Iadd.A method is described for controlling a receiver station using stored data specific to a user. By receiving a computer program transmitted from a transmitter station, the computer program is stored at the receiver station. Upon execution of the computer program, the data specific to a user is processed to generate information content at an output device..Iaddend.

A radio receiver includes a tuner and processing circuitry, which in turn includes watermark detection circuitry and local playout control circuitry. The tuner receives an over-the-air radio broadcast on a tuned frequency. The over-the-air radio broadcast includes broadcast content. The processing circuitry, which is coupled to the tuner, is used to implement the watermark detection circuitry and local playout control circuitry. The watermark detection circuitry detects an actionable watermark included in the broadcast content, and transmits a watermark-detected signal to the local playout control circuitry in response to detecting the actionable watermark. In response to receiving the watermark-detected signal, the local playout control circuitry initiates retrieval of replacement content.

A method to provide secure delivery of video manifest/playlist files by generating a single use, per-user encryption key to encrypt the video manifest/playlist file is disclosed. A video player generates a session ID when establishing connection with a manifest server. The manifest server is in communication with a key server and uses the session ID and content ID to generate the single use encryption key specifically for the session ID generated by the video player. The manifest server encrypts the manifest file prior to providing it to the video player. The content of the manifest file can then only be decrypted by the single use encryption key. The video player communicates with the key server to retrieve the single use key and to decrypt the manifest file.

A dashboard system may receive data feeds from one or more associated devices, such as the hardware devices of first responders or other public safety officers, and may aggregate and prioritize them. The dashboard system may then manage, prioritize and encrypt the video, files and other data in preparation for broadcast over the television or satellite transmitter, via, for example, a television broadcasting station, and may then broadcast the video, files, or other data to a plurality of users. Alerts and notifications may be created, files attached and links to video streams distributed over this same broadcast network.
