Full motion video (fmv) routing in one-way transfer systems using modified elementary streams

A system for routing video streams in a one-way transfer (OWT) system, the system comprising:

• a destination video broker, in a destination computing environment protected by the OWT system, that:
• receives an enriched video stream, wherein the enriched video stream includes a multiplexed content packetized elementary stream (PES) and an enriched metadata PES including a unique identifier for the video stream;
• accesses the enriched metadata PES by demultiplexing the enriched video stream;
• extracts the unique identifier from the enriched metadata PES;
• based on the extracted unique identifier, identifies a destination address for the video stream from a routing table that stores corresponding destination addresses for multiple unique identifiers;
• forms an unenriched video stream by multiplexing the metadata PES, without the unique identifier, and the content PES;
• and
• transmits the unenriched video stream to a destination device having the destination address.

A method for routing video streams in a one-way transfer (OWT) system, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a destination video broker in a destination computing environment, an enriched video stream, wherein the enriched video stream includes a multiplexed content packetized elementary stream (PES) and a routing PES including a unique identifier for the video stream;
• accessing the routing PES by demultiplexing the enriched video stream;
• extracting the unique identifier from the routing PES;
• forming an unenriched video stream by multiplexing the content PES without the routing PES;
• based on the extracted unique identifier, identifying, by the destination video broker, a destination address for the video stream;
• and
• transmitting, by the destination video broker, the unenriched video stream to a destination device having the destination address.

The method of claim 226, further comprising:

• receiving, by a source video broker in a source computing environment, the video stream;
• identifying, by the source video broker, the unique identifier for the video stream;
• accessing PESs of the video stream by demultiplexing the video stream;
• generating the routing PES including the unique identifier;
• forming the enriched video stream by multiplexing the PESs and the routing PES;
• and
• transmitting, by the source video broker, the enriched video stream through the OWT system.

The method of claim 226, wherein identifying, by the destination video broker, the destination address, comprises:

• accessing a routing table that stores corresponding destination addresses for multiple unique identifiers;
• querying the routing table with the unique identifier;
• and
• receiving, in response to the query, the destination address.

A method for routing video streams in a one-way transfer (OWT) system, the method comprising:

• receiving, by a destination video broker in a source computing environment, an enriched video stream comprising multiple, multiplexed packetized elementary streams (PESs) including at least one of:
• a routing PES including a unique identifier for the video stream;
• or
• an enriched metadata PES including the unique identifier;
• accessing the at least one of the routing PES or the enriched metadata PES by demultiplexing the enriched video stream;
• extracting the unique identifier from the at least one of routing PES or the enriched metadata PES;
• forming an unenriched video stream by multiplexing the PESs without the routing PES;
• based on the extracted unique identifier, identifying, by the destination video broker, a destination address for the video stream;
• and
• transmitting, by the destination video broker, the unenriched video stream to a destination device having the destination address.
