Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable recording media for a user account secure with a single sign on (SSO) password hidden authentication. Receiving credential information (CI) and generating the SSO password through at least one client device (CD). Encrypting the SSO password. Storing the SSO password in the CD and an electronic device (ED). Transmit the SSO password and encrypted SSO password to a cloud services platform (CSP), where the CSP stores both. Storing the SSO password in a cloud server (CS). Accessing the user account, if SSO password is unavailable, through the CSP transmitting a one time passcode to a user email, the CD setting a temporary password transferred to the CSP. The CSP confirming a match and transmitting the encrypted SSO password to the CD, the CD decrypting the encrypted SSO password and resetting the temporary password to the SSO password.

Abstract: The present invention enables determination of transport stream channels for video-on-demand (VOD) applications. A television terminal is provided which includes a tuner for tuning to a home channel. An application program interface in the terminal retrieves a transport stream identifier of a transport stream carrying the home channel. The home channel transport stream identifier defines a plurality of transport stream identifiers of a corresponding plurality of transport streams visible to the terminal. A video service controller receives the home channel transport stream identifier from the application program interface. A VOD subsystem controller controls distribution of a requested VOD service in response to video service controller commands. A video pump provides the requested VOD service to a re-multiplexing QAM device for distribution on one of the transport streams visible to the terminal based on commands from the VOD subsystem controller.
