Abstract: A method (1) of and a device for rendering content data of a content data stream. From content data identified in the content data stream, a level of toxicity is determined (4). The level of toxicity represents a measure of authenticity of the received content data stream. Content data of the received content data stream is rendered (6) based on an aggregated level of toxicity.

Abstract: Example embodiments relate to a system to prevent manipulation of transmitted video data including an Integrated Receiver Decoder (IRD) receiving audio/video data and a display device. The IRD may include a device to transmit an HDMI compliant audio/video stream toward the display device. The system may further include a device to add an over-encryption layer to the HDMI/HDCP stream before reaching the display device and a device to remove the added encryption layer so as to recover the HDMI/HDCP stream, before processing the HDMI/HDCP stream by the display device.

Abstract: A method to enhance broadcast content of an event received by a television set by supplying additional information related to the event. A user builds a request message for getting more information through a displayed menu where some items are extracted from metadata broadcast with the content. The request message, completed with user preference and identification data, is sent to a management center. The latter performs a search in local databases or in remote databases of providers distributed in a cloud comprising a plurality of internet services and resources. The search results are filtered before sending to the television set in the form of enhanced data comprising abstracts including at least text, or any combination of text with graphics or pictures.
