Abstract
Systems and methods for accessing a media stream are presented. In response to a request for a media stream, an individual can be authorized to manipulate the media stream. Once an individual has gained authorization with respect to a media stream's manipulation rights, they are allowed to manipulate the stream. In some embodiments, a provider controls a secure environment to play the stream and enforce the rights.
Claims18
A method of providing dually altered media to a remote computer via a network, the method comprising:
- providing a software modulus to a secure environment of the remote computer within a provider-controlled environment;
- receiving a first request from the remote computer for the media;
- streaming a portion of the media from a data server to the remote computer;
- enabling a first manipulation control of the software modulus within the secure environment under the control of the data server, the first manipulation control configured to manipulate the media within the secure environment;
- enabling a second manipulation control of the software modulus;
- receiving a second request from the second manipulation control to manipulate the media wherein the second request includes an audio track for attachment to the media;
- and
- streaming altered media to the software modulus in response to the second request from the second manipulation control, wherein the altered media is streamed to the software modulus from outside the secure environment and the altered media includes the audio track and an image file.

- receiving a second request from the second manipulation control to manipulate the media;
- streaming altered media to the software modulus in response to the second request from the second manipulation control, wherein the altered media is streamed to the software modulus from outside the secure environment;
- assigning a first manipulation right and a second manipulation right to the media, the first manipulation right associated with the first manipulation control and the second manipulation right associated with the second manipulation control, wherein the step of assigning occurs before the step of receiving, via the network, the first request from the remote computer for the media;
- the step of receiving, via the network, the second request from the second manipulation control to manipulate the media includes an audio track for attachment to the media;
- and
- the altered media includes the audio track and an image file.
