Definitions
- the clear content is identified using a primary Packet Identifier (PID).
- PID Packet Identifier
- a secondary PID or shadow PID is also assigned to the program content. Selected portions of the content are encrypted under two (or more) encryption systems and the encrypted content transmitted using both the primary and secondary PIDs (one PID or set of PIDs for each encryption system).
- the so-called legacy STBs operate in a normal manner decrypting encrypted packets arriving under the primary PID and ignoring secondary PIDs.
- the newer (non-legacy) STBs operate by associating both the primary and secondary PIDs with a single program. Packets with a primary PID are decoded normally and packets with a secondary PID are first decrypted then decoded. The packets associated with both PIDs are then assembled together to make up a single program stream.
- the PID values associated with the packets are generally remapped to a single PID value for decoding (e.g., shadow PIDs remapped to the primary PID value or vice versa.)

- VOD ARCHITECTURES The decision on a particular VOD architecture is the result of the interaction between a complex set of both independent and dependent variables, providing a solution to an equation of state. Some of the variables are fixed directly as a result of choices by the MSO. Others are constrained by factors such as the existing incumbent system, location, size, available capital and ROI requirements.
- a generalized VOD system 10 contains some or all of the following elements / resources: Content Aggregation and Asset management 14, Content distribution (SAN) 18, Video server module(s) 22, Session Management 26, Transaction management 30, Billing system 34, EPG server or VOD catalog server 38, Transport router/switch fabric (routing matrix) 42, Stream encryption device(s) (not shown in this Figure), and QAM modulators/upconverters and other edge resources 46.
- This VOD system 10 provides programming to the subscriber terminals such as 50 for ultimate viewing and listening on a TV set or other monitor device 54. In operation, content is received from various sources including, but not limited to, satellite broadcasts received via one or more satellite dishes 58.
- Content is aggregated at 14 and cataloged at EPG server or VOD catalog server 38. Content is then distributed at 18 to one or more video servers 22.
- a subscriber orders a VOD selection, a message is sent from the subscriber terminal (e.g., STB) 50 to the session manager 26.
- the session manager 26 notifies the transaction manager 30 to assure that the billing system 34 is properly brought into play.
- the session manager 26 selects a VOD server from a cluster of VOD servers having the requested content on it and having a signal path that reaches the node serving the subscriber.
- the session manager 26 also enables the routing matrix 42 to properly route the selected video content through the correct edge resources 46 for delivery to the subscriber terminal 50.
- TRICK MODES One aspect of VOD that has become a "signature” feature is the support of "trick modes". These are operational modes invoked by the session client that mimic a
- these subfiles contain only I-frames, since I-frames contain stand-alone whole pictures (see ISO/IEC 13818-2, section 6.1.1.7).
- I-frames are somewhat larger than B or P frames, and they typically represent approximately as much as 21% of the data in a given video selection.
- a file containing only I-frames extracted from the original content affords the ability to have accelerated playback, since typical GOP (group of pictures) structures have only one frame in about 10 to 20 as an I-frame. If the I-frame files are played at normal rates (1 frame per 33 mS) the pictures will appear to the viewer to sequence at about a 1 Ox to 20x rate, though the actual data rate is the same as the original content.
- the motion will appear to run backwards.
- This is the method used to implement fast forward and rewind trick modes.
- the video server plays the selected content file and upon subscriber selection of a trick mode (or vice versa) the server notes the index value of the closest I-frame and then opens the appropriate associated subfile 78 or 80 and moves to the I-frame in the subfile with the same corresponding index.
- the video server treats all stream content (main file or subfiles) the same and always spools the MPEG packets to the outgoing transport stream at the same constant bit rate through multiplexers and buffers 84 as shown. It is through this method that trick modes are typically implemented on a slotted, session based system without the encumbrance of additional, dynamic bit rate issues.
- VOD PROGRAM SPECIFIC INFORMATION A function of the VOD video server(s) 22, in addition to origination of session A V content, is the creation of the associated, session specific PSI (program specific information). This information is a departure from the broadcast model in that the PSI is extremely dynamic. The content of the PAT and subordinate PMTs change whenever a new session is started or ended. In the broadcast world, the PSI changes very seldom because the PSI tables reflect only the structure of the transport multiplex, not the actual A/V content carried within. The VOD video server 22 dynamically assigns a new session to an existing, available "slot" in an outgoing transport multiplexed stream.
- PSI program specific information
- the slot is denoted by the MPEG program number and in many cases, the combination of which transport stream (TSID) and program number determine at the service level a unique session and the routing that occurs as a result.
- Edge resources 46 generally are not configured dynamically. The routing of content appearing on a particular input port to a specific QAM carrier at the output is determined through a preconfigured, static assignment of TSID/input port and program number mapping to specific QAM resources in the device. This same mapping information is also loaded in the VOD system so that once a session is requested by and authorized for a specific subscriber terminal 50, a solution to a routing matrix 42 can be determined to find the appropriate VOD server 22 and QAM transport 46 serving the requestor.
- PATENT program ID and QAM frequency
- SNY-T5711.02 PATENT program ID and QAM frequency
- VOD distribution system implementation is a clear VOD distribution system, i.e. one that contains no encryption as depicted in FIGURE 1. While not providing any safekeeping of what might be considered the entertainment medium's most valuable properties, namely current feature films, etc., clear VOD avoids many of the issues that the incumbent cable system providers to date have not adequately addressed and that introduction of a second, alternative CA system complicates even further still.
- Various arrangements for providing selective or full encryption in a VOD environment are discussed below. Throughout this discussion, it is instructive to carry an example VOD movie through the various embodiments to illustrate the relative storage efficiencies obtained with the various systems disclosed.
- VOD movie A real world example of a VOD movie which will be used throughout this document has the following attributes: Compressed video data rate: 3Mbit/S Movie length: 120 minutes (2 Hrs) I-frame overhead: 17% Total storage used for the video portion of a single, clear (unencrypted) copy of a film: 3.618GBytes.
- Pre-encrypted VOD systems such as system 100 shown in FIGURE 3 can be architecturally similar to clear VOD distribution systems. One difference between the two is that on pre-encrypted systems there is pre-processing of the content prior to storage in the VOD system to provide safekeeping of content during the storage and
- This pre-processing can be carried out in pre-encryptor 104.
- Data security is implemented through storage of previously encrypted content within the video server(s) 22. While the clear VOD system contains directly viewable MPEG or other compressed A/V content on the server(s) 22, the pre-encrypted model stores this same content in a form that is only decipherable using a properly entitled subscriber terminal 50.
- the pre-encryption process can be performed by the MSO at the time of deployment on the VOD system 100, prior to loading into the storage area network (SAN) used to propagate content to all of the video servers in the MSO's system.
- SAN storage area network
- the encryption may be performed prior to receipt of the content by the MSO at an external service bureau, content aggregator or by the distributor or studio.
- the content is theoretically secured throughout the distribution phase, storage phase and transmission to subscriber for display on an authorized device.
- the use of pre- encryption prior to distribution of content to the MSO potentially adds to the complexity of entitlement distribution, separate from the content distribution, for installation on the VOD transaction manager 30 to allow bone fide subscribers to decrypt the purchased content.
- content will be considered stored in the VOD video server if it is stored either directly in the VOD video server or indirectly in the VOD video server (i.e., is accessible by the VOD video server).
- VOD architectures share one or more of the following common drawbacks: • Additional handling of new content may be needed to perform the pre-encryption prior to loading into the server, either by the MSO or service bureau. • Coordination and or distribution is required for entitlements matching the access criteria used to encrypt the content stored in the server. • Limited “shelf life" of the encryption keys used to secure the stored content, rendering decryption impossible at a later date. • Incapability of present VOD video servers to load pre-encrypted streams.
- trick play and pre-encryption is based upon the concept that VOD servers 22 currently expect clear content and then subsequently identify the I- frames and store or otherwise segregate them for access in fast-forward or fast rewind playback modes, as described in conjunction with FIGURE 2. If the stream is pre- encrypted prior to storage upon the server, it may be difficult or impossible for the server 22 to examine packet payloads to identify I-frames during the process of importation into the server 22 to create trick mode files 78 and 80 or associated indices. Many current systems will not accept streams for importation that are pre-encrypted.
- a segregated storage mechanism can be physically similar to the architecture of the clear VOD distribution system.
- the content is encrypted in its entirety (100%) and a separate copy of the complete feature is stored for each different conditional access format supported by the MSO.
- the organization and configuration of the system is such that when a subscriber initiates a session on the server, the stream files for the selected content containing the CA format appropriate to the specific equipment deployed at the subscriber's premises requesting the session are spooled and delivered.
- This method offers a low system complexity encrypted VOD system but may suffer from some of the same issues common to other pre-encryption topologies, mentioned previously. In addition, a very significant storage penalty (one or more encrypted duplicate copies of the same movie) is incurred.
- VOD system session manager is made aware of which conditional access method is appropriate for a session requested by a specific subscriber. This information is in turn transferred to the video server that has been selected as the source for the session so that the appropriate PSI can be created for the session, including conditional access specific data.
- the video server is cognizant of the conditional access resources (ECMs) for each program stored on the server and these resources can be dynamically allocated on unique PIDs along with PIDs for the corresponding audio and video data.
- ECMs conditional access resources
- the PSI generated for each specific session in addition to indicating the assigned PIDs for A/V, indicate the appropriate CASID, which is unique to each conditional access system provider and the PID assigned for the ECMs associated with the session.
- COMPOSITE STORAGE PRE-ENCRYPTION Composite storage is essentially the storage on the video server of a selectively encrypted stream such as a PassageTM processed stream that contains previously encrypted "critical packets" for a plurality (two or more) of independent conditional access systems (i.e., dual selective encrypted).
- the stream may be prepared identically to the processing of a selectively encrypted broadcast stream as described in the above- referenced pending patent applications, except that the resultant transport stream is recorded to a hard disk or other suitable computer readable storage medium, instead of being sent directly to a QAM modulator for HFC distribution to the requesting subscriber.
- the content can be encrypted by either the MSO at time of deployment on the VOD system, a third party service bureau, by the
- a negative aspect in addition to those mentioned previously and common to other pre-encryption topologies, is the vulnerability of the prepared selectively encrypted stream to corruption by downstream equipment containing transport remultiplexing functionality that is not specifically designed to maintain the integrity of the selective encryption process applied to the stream.
- VOD system session manager can be made to be aware of which conditional access method is appropriate for a session requested by a specific subscriber. This information is in turn transferred to the video server that has been selected as the source for the session so that the appropriate PSI can be created for the session, including conditional access specific data.
- the video server is cognizant of the conditional access resources (ECMs) for each program stored on the server and these can be dynamically allocated on unique PIDs along with PIDs for the corresponding audio and video data.
- ECMs conditional access resources
- the PSI generated for each specific session in addition to indicating the assigned PIDs for A/V, can indicate the appropriate CASID, which is unique to each conditional access system provider and the PID assigned for the ECMs associated with the session.
- the video server dynamically allocates another set of PIDs for the shadow packets associated with the respective audio and video component streams for each session in the manner described in the above-referenced patent applications. This
- PATENT information can be included in the PSI sent in sessions requested by non-legacy clients.
- PAT one table common to all sessions, but modified for each
- PMT Primary Video
- Primary Audio Primary Audio
- Shadow Video Shadow Audio
- Legacy ECM Legacy ECM
- Alternative ECM Alternative ECM
- the content format specified for VOD servers often uses a single program transport multiplex containing a single PAT entry, single PMT entry and service components, for one audio and one video stream.
- the shadow packets added in a composite selectively encrypted transport stream may prove problematic for a legacy VOD pre-encryption device, in certain instances. It is more probable that a device or process (since there are no real time requirements, an off-line process running on a PC or UNLX server may suffice) to process a candidate stream before passing through the legacy pre-encryptor and then post-encryption reconcile to extract only the encrypted "critical" packets for insertion into the VOD video server 22.
- the same or similar algorithms and techniques for performing this manipulation for selective encryption processing as described in the above-referenced patent applications can be adapted to VOD applications for off-line work.
- the VOD server 22 may also be modified to allow introduction of streams having multiple service elements (primary video, primary audio, shadow video, shadow audio) uniquely associated with a PassageTM transport.
- the present video servers generally only allow one each, primary video and audio, respectively.
- the quartet of data representing PassageTM processed A/V content should preferably be managed as a indivisible set on the VOD video server 22.
- Hybrid composite storage is a variant of the composite storage concept, but incorporates elements of session-based encryption for implementing the alternative conditional access encryption.
- the legacy "critical" packets comprising approximately 2-10% of the total content, are pre-encrypted by the legacy conditional access system 104 using selective encryption technology for managing the process.
- the selective encryption is managed in selective encryption processor 134.
- the duplicate copy of "critical" packets, which are located on previously unused PIDs, is left unencrypted. This latter aspect is the departure from the composite storage scenario described above.
- the composite stream of unencrypted non-critical packets, legacy encrypted "critical" packets on the original service PIDs (e.g., PID A) and an unencrypted, duplicate copy of the "critical" packets on alternate service PIDs (e.g., PID B) is stored on the video server 22 as a single stream. Therefore, an abbreviated stream of packets might be stored as follows:
- a computer data structure representing digital video content has a segment of digital video content divided into a plurality of data packets.
- the data packets are divided into at least three types of data packets as follows: a first type of data packet that is selected according to a selection criterion for Docket No.: SNY-T5711.02 PATENT encryption; a second type of data packet that is not-selected according the selection criterion; and a third type of data packet that comprises duplicates of the first type of data packets.
- the first type of data packet are encrypted under a first encryption system, the second type of data packet is unencrypted, and the third type is unencrypted.
- FIGURE 5 depicts one process 200 consistent with certain embodiments for storage and retrieval of content starting at 204.
- the clear content is processed at 208 to select packets for encryption using any suitable selective encryption selection criterion such as those described in the above-referenced patent applications or any other suitable selection criterion. Once those packets are selected, they are duplicated at 212 to produce duplicates of the selected packets. At 216, the selected packets are encrypted under the legacy CA encryption system.
- the content can be stored as a file or collection of files containing the clear content, the encrypted selected content, and the clear duplicate content at 220.
- a subscriber session as a result of a subscriber request at 224, if the session is destined for a legacy STB (represented by subscriber terminal 50) at 228, the existing paradigm for pre-encrypted content is followed and no special action is taken.
- the content is retrieved from storage at 232.
- the stream is routed at routing matrix 138 operating under control of session manager 26, through a session encryption device 142 capable of performing encryption using the alternative conditional access system 144, but the session manager 26 does not provision the device to perform encryption on elements of the stream and it is sent directly to the requesting subscriber without further modification.
- the stream is processed through an add- drop remultiplexer 148 and the clear "critical" duplicate content on alternate service PIDs are removed at 236 from the outgoing transport.
- the output stream is then routed at routing matrix 152 to appropriate edge resources 46 for delivery to the subscriber
- the session encryption device 142 that performs encryption using the alternative conditional access system also contains the add-drop multiplexer capability.
- the content is retrieved at 244.
- the stream is then routed through session encryption device 142 capable of performing encryption using the alternative conditional access system and only the duplicate "critical" packets on alternate service PIDs (previously in the clear) are encrypted at 248 using the alternative conditional access system 144, as provisioned by the session manager.
- a multiple selective encryption method for digital content involves selecting a plurality of packets for encryption according to a selection criterion, to produce selected packets, wherein unselected packets are designated to remain unencrypted.
- the plurality of selected packets is duplicated to produce duplicate packets, wherein the duplicate packets are unencrypted.
- the selected packets are encrypted under a first encryption system to produce first encrypted packets.
- the content is stored by storing the unencrypted unselected packets, the first encrypted packets and the duplicate unencrypted packets.
- the process determines if the subscriber terminal is compatible with the first encryption system, and if so retrieves the stored content and sends the content to the subscriber terminal.
- the duplicate unencrypted packets can be deleted from the content before sending the content to the subscriber terminal. If the request for the content is received from a subscriber terminal that is compatible with a second encryption system, the stored content is retrieved, the duplicate packets are encrypted under the second encryption system, and the content is sent to the
- the first encrypted packets can be deleted from the content before sending the content to the subscriber terminal.
- the above-described processes can be carried out using a programmed processor such as a programmed general purpose computer residing at the cable system headend.
- both the legacy (encrypted) and non-legacy (clear) packets as well as both sets of PSI data can be sent, however, in this case the entire stream would be available in the clear for anyone willing to remap the PIDs.
- a preprocessor can be used to perform selective encryption of content to be loaded onto the video server.
- a modified file protocol can be used to allow the video server to import and associate these files.
- Either the preprocessor or the video server can be designed to perform the indexing.
- An alternate instantiation could be use to perform all selective encryption pre-processing (e.g., PID mapping and packet duplication) within the VOD video server 22 itself.
- VOD video server 22 This could be accomplished by modifying the VOD video server 22 application to add a pre-processor task as a separate executable, called by the VOD video server 22 during the process to prepare content for pre-encryption. Changes can be implemented to the method employed by the VOD system for creating dynamic PSI data to implement this architecture.
- the VOD system session manager 26 is made aware of which conditional access method is appropriate for a session requested by a specific subscriber. This information can in turn be transferred to the VOD video server 22 that has been selected as the source for the session so that the appropriate PSI can be created for the session, including conditional access specific data.
- the VOD video server 22 is cognizant of the conditional access resources (ECMs) for each program stored on the server and these can be dynamically allocated on unique PIDs
- the PSI generated for each specific session in addition to indicating the assigned PIDs for A/V, can indicate the appropriate CASID, which is unique to each conditional access system provider and the PID assigned for the ECMs associated with the session.
- the VOD video server 22 dynamically allocates PIDs for the shadow packets associated with the respective audio and video component streams for each session. This information is included in the PSI sent in sessions requested by non-legacy clients. Just like in the more general composite storage architecture discussed in the previous section, the video server manages multiple resources and PIDs.
- the hybrid topology reduces the unique entities by one from eight to seven: there is no need for alternative ECM PID or data resource in the stored composite stream. This information will be added later in a downstream device providing the alternative conditional access encryption for those sessions destined for decoding upon a non-legacy client.
- certain of the functional blocks used to implement the VOD system can be implemented using a programmed processor such as a general purpose computer.
- a functional block is the session manager 26.
- the invention is not limited to such exemplary embodiments, since other embodiments could be implemented using hardware component equivalents such as special purpose hardware and/or dedicated processors.
- a computer readable storage device for storage and retrieval of digital video content has at least one computer readable storage medium. A segment of digital video content resides on the computer readable storage medium.
- the digital video content has a first plurality of packets selected according to a selection criterion, the plurality of packets being encrypted under a first encryption system; a plurality of duplicate packets of the first plurality of packets, wherein the duplicate packets are stored unencrypted; and a plurality of packets that were not selected according to the selection criterion, wherein the plurality of packets that were not selected are stored unencrypted.
- the above device can have the first plurality of packets identified by a first set of Packet Identifiers (PIDs).
- PIDs Packet Identifiers
- the plurality of duplicate packets can be identified by a second set of PIDs.
- the plurality of packets that were not selected can be identified by the first set of PIDs.
- Other variations in PID identifiers is also possible as taught in the above-referenced patent applications. While certain illustrative embodiments have been described, it is evident that many alternatives, modifications, permutations and variations will become apparent to those skilled in the art in light of the foregoing description.
