A digital information stream communication (DISC) system within a first conditional access system (CAS) is disclosed. The DISC system communicates information from a digital information stream (DIS) having DIS attributes for accessibility using the first CAS or associated with a digital media (DM) content in the DIS. The DISC system includes a monitoring module configured to receive the DIS and identify one or more of the DIS attributes for accessibility using the first CAS. The DISC system also includes a processing module configured to identify one or more of the DIS attributes associated with the DM content and analyze the DIS attributes. It does this to determine whether to send DIS data from the DIS to a second CAS based upon the DIS data being included in the DIS attributes. The DISC system also includes a processor configured to operate the monitoring module and the processing module.
A digital information stream communication (DISC) system, within a first conditional access system (CAS), the DISC system configured to communicate information from a digital information stream (DIS) having DIS attributes for accessibility using the first CAS or associated with a digital media (DM) content in the DIS, the DISC system comprising:
A method of communicating information from a digital information stream (DIS) having DIS attributes for accessibility using a first CAS or associated with a digital media (DM) content in the DIS, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing computer readable instructions that when executed by a computer system perform a method of communicating information from a digital information stream (DIS) having DIS attributes for accessibility using a first CAS or associated with a digital media (DM) content in the DIS, the method comprising:
