  • Patent number: 9263085
    Abstract: A method for copy protection in which an audiovisual or audio data is divided into a plurality of portions. The plurality of portions is at least partly scrambled and prepared so as to be stored on a record carrier in the scrambled order. This is done so that a physical position on the record carrier, e.g., a sector of the record carrier, where a respective portions of the divided data is stored depends on the scrambled order.

  • Patent number: 8649513
    Abstract: Method for converting non copy protected data into copy protected data. The non copy protected data includes data structure data, controlling data and content data. The content data are embedded into data structures defined by the data structure data, and are processed using the controlling data. The method includes transferring part of the data structure data or the controlling data via a first network, from a first to a second network location, generating modified data structure data or modified controlling data at the second network location based on the data structure/controlling data supplied to the second network location, transferring the modified data structure/controlling data via a second network from the second to a third network location, where the copy protected data is generated by embedding the content data into modified data structures based on the modified data structure data or by replacing the controlling data with the modified controlling data.

  • Patent number: 8356355
    Abstract: A record carrier for storing at least one stream of linked content cells thereon, which linking is performed based on navigation data. The record carrier includes modified navigation data and/or a stream arrangement of at least one stream of linked content cells, so that an access of the at least one stream of linked content cells on the record carrier under consideration of the navigation data is not disturbed, whereas a generally linear access of the at least one stream of linked content cells on the record carrier is disturbed.

  • Patent number: 8000179
    Abstract: An optical disc including: sectors each having a sector ID; a first area having a first set of sectors sequentially arranged on the disc according to their respective IDs; a second area having a second set of sectors sequentially arranged on the disc according to their respective IDs, the second area being located after the first area in respect of a disc scan direction, the second area including all information needed for playback of the entire disc and having at least one sector ID which duplicates that of a sector in the first set of sectors.
