Abstract: Content-specific archive files can be generated concurrently with the encoding of an output stream, such as for broadcast content. Tags or triggers, such as SCTE-35 messages, can be detected in the input content stream, and those triggers used to determine actions to be taken with respect to the content stream. As an example, program start tags and end tags can be used to determine when to begin, and end, the archiving of content to an output file specific to that program content. For archives that should not include advertising, secondary content, or any non-program content, triggers such as advertising start and stop tags can be used to determine when to pause and resume recording for those archives. Once completed, these archive files can be made accessible to users, such as through a video-on-demand service or other such offering.
