Abstract
A method for processing video content is disclosed. The method comprises: receiving, in a hardware device connected in operation to a computer, encrypted, encoded video content; decrypting the encrypted, encoded video content to form decrypted, encoded video content; decoding a first portion of the decrypted, encoded video content to form a decrypted, decoded video content portion; re-encrypting the decrypted, decoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, decoded video content portion; re-encrypting a second portion of the decrypted, encoded video content to form a re-encrypted, encoded video content portion; and outputting the re-encrypted, decoded video content portion and the re-encrypted, encoded video content portion to the computer.
Claims49
A method for processing video content, said method comprising:
- receiving, in a hardware device connected in operation to a computer, encrypted, encoded video content;
- decrypting said encrypted, encoded video content to form decrypted, encoded video content;
- decoding a first portion of said decrypted, encoded video content to form a decrypted, decoded video content portion;
- re-encrypting said decrypted, decoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, decoded video content portion;
- re-encrypting a remaining second portion of said decrypted, encoded video content to form a re-encrypted, encoded video content portion;
- and
- outputting said re-encrypted, decoded video content portion and said re-encrypted, encoded video content portion to said computer.
A method for processing video content, said method comprising:
- receiving, in a hardware device connected in operation to a computer, encrypted, encoded video content;
- decrypting a first portion of said encrypted, encoded video content to form a first decrypted, encoded video content portion;
- decoding said first decrypted, encoded video content portion to form a decrypted, decoded video content portion;
- re-encrypting said decrypted, decoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, decoded video content portion;
- decrypting a remaining second portion of said encrypted, encoded video content to form a second decrypted, encoded video content portion;
- re-encrypting said second decrypted, encoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, encoded video content portion;
- and
- outputting said re-encrypted, decoded video content portion and said re-encrypted, encoded video content portion to said computer.
A method for processing video content, said method comprising:
- receiving, in a hardware device connected in operation to a computer, encrypted, encoded video content;
- decrypting a first portion of said encrypted, encoded video content to form a first decrypted, encoded video content portion;
- decoding said first decrypted, encoded video content portion to form a first decrypted, decoded video content portion;
- re-encrypting said first decrypted, decoded video content portion to form a first re-encrypted, decoded video content portion;
- and
- outputting said first re-encrypted, decoded video content portion and a remaining portion of said encrypted, encoded video content to said computer.
A hardware device for processing video content, wherein said hardware device is connected in operation to a computer, said hardware device comprising:
- means for receiving encrypted, encoded video content;
- means for decrypting said encrypted, encoded video content to form decrypted, encoded video content;
- means for decoding a first portion of said decrypted, encoded video content to form a decrypted, decoded video content portion;
- means for re-encrypting said decrypted, decoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, decoded video content portion, and for re-encrypting a remaining second portion of said decrypted, encoded video content to form a re-encrypted, encoded video content portion;
- and
- means for outputting said re-encrypted, decoded video content portion and said re-encrypted, encoded video content portion to said computer.
A hardware device for processing video content, wherein said hardware device is connected in operation to a computer, said hardware device comprising:
- a receiver operable to receive encrypted, encoded video content;
- a decryptor operable to decrypt said encrypted, encoded video content to form decrypted, encoded video content;
- a decoder operable to decode a first portion of said decrypted, encoded video content to form a decrypted, decoded video content portion;
- an encryptor operable to re-encrypt said decrypted, decoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, decoded video content portion, and further operable to re-encrypt a remaining second portion of said decrypted, encoded video content to form a re-encrypted, encoded video content portion;
- and
- an outputter operable to output said re-encrypted, decoded video content portion and said re-encrypted, encoded video content portion to said computer.
A hardware device for processing video content, wherein said hardware device is connected in operation to a computer, said hardware device comprising:
- a receiver operable to receive encrypted, encoded video content;
- a decryptor operable to decrypt a first portion of said encrypted, encoded video content to form a first decrypted, encoded video content portion;
- a decoder operable to decode said first decrypted, encoded video content portion to form a decrypted, decoded video content portion;
- and
- an encryptor operable to re-encrypting said decrypted, decoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, decoded video content portion;
- wherein said decryptor is further operable to decrypt a second portion of said encrypted, encoded video content to form a second decrypted, encoded video content portion;
- and wherein said encryptor is further operable to re-encrypt said second decrypted, encoded video content portion to form a re-encrypted, encoded video content portion;
- said hardware device further comprising:
- an outputter operable to output said re-encrypted, decoded video content portion and said re-encrypted, encoded video content portion to said computer.
