A method, apparatus and system for processing a live broadcast information stream are provided. The method includes: obtaining an encryption permission recognition result by recognizing an encryption permission for a target live broadcast room in response to a live broadcast request of the target live broadcast room sent by an anchor client; generating an encryption live broadcast indication and a stream pushing address of the target live broadcast room in response to the encryption permission recognition result indicating that the target live broadcast room is an encrypted live broadcast room, in which the encryption live broadcast indication is used to instruct a live broadcast source station to encrypt live broadcast information stream of the target live broadcast room; and sending the stream pushing address corresponding to the target live broadcast room to the anchor client, in which the stream pushing address indicates an address of the live broadcast source station.

Methods and systems for storage and playback of broadcast media received via a local digital video recording (DVR) system. The system includes the DVR system configured to receive the broadcast media and upload the broadcast media to a storage server over a network. The DVR system divides the broadcast media content into blocks and assigns a unique block ID to each block based on the block data. Prior to uploading each block to the storage server, the unique block ID is sent to the storage server, which only uploads and stored the block if a duplicate block has not already been stored on the storage device, minimizing network demand. A transcoding server coupled to the storage server transcodes the broadcast media content for streaming over the network.

The invention relates to a process for transmitting streaming digital content to a client device for access to digital content. The inventive process makes it possible, in particular, to apply an access control system to the protection of direct-mode video streams. The process also makes it possible to significantly improve the security and safety of the system, based on a periodic mandatory back-communication on the part of the client device.

The various implementations described herein include methods, devices, and systems for detecting motion and persons. In one aspect, a method is performed at a smart home system that includes a video camera, a server system, and a client device. The video camera captures video and audio, and wirelessly communicates, via the server system, the captured data to the client device. The server system: (1) receives and stores the captured data from the video camera; (2) determines whether an event has occurred, including detected motion; (3) in accordance with a determination that the event has occurred, identifies video and audio corresponding to the event; and (4) classifies the event. The client device receives information indicative of the identified events, displays a user interface for reviewing the video and audio stored by the remote server system, and displays the at least one classification for the event.

A processing service of a provider network may protect media content from being tampered with when it is transmitted from the provider network/transcoder to untrusted networks (e.g., third-party networks/CDNs) and to a media player. The processing service (e.g., the transcoder) generates a public and a private key. The service uses the private key to digitally sign content portions (e.g., video frames) before distribution to untrusted CDNs. The provider network creates a manifest that includes the public key. To play the media content, the media player obtains a manifest that includes the public key (via a secure/trusted connection with the provider network). The media player may then obtain the media content from an untrusted edge server/CDN and validate it using the public key that was separately obtained from the manifest (to verify the content was not tampered with).

An apparatus, e.g. a wireless media access point, includes a transceiver, a non-transitory storage medium, and a processor operably coupled to the transceiver and the storage medium. The processor is configured by instructions stored on the storage medium to transmit a first multicast channel associated with a first group temporal key (GTK), and to simultaneously transmit a second multicast channel associated with a second GTK.
