Abstract: The application concerns a method for transmitting video data in a data stream and associated metadata, said metadata representing associated video data structure. The method comprises the steps of—determining the structure of the video data, —splitting said structure into chunks in an incremental manner, —transmitting said chunks in the data stream at time intervals before the video data it is related to. The application concerns also a method for transmitting fingerprint information associated with video data into a video data stream. The method comprises the steps of: —determining fingerprint associated with at least one frame of said video data, —inserting at least a message into the video stream comprising said fingerprint information.

Abstract: A system for protection against unauthorized modifications of digital content, in particular image content, in which a content processing system retrieves content, a fingerprint for the content and at least one modification limit expressing authorized modifications to the content. The content may then be modified, but before saving or exportation is allowed, a second fingerprint is calculated, and the difference between the fingerprints is compared with the at least one modification limit. If the difference is within the allowed bounds, then saving or exportation is allowed; if not, it is prevented. Also provided are a method and a content consumer device performing essentially the same steps before allowing rendering of the content.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for computing a fingerprint of a video sequence. The method comprises the steps of—Computation of a visual digest for each frame of the video, —Computation of the distance between the visual digest of each frame of the video in order to detect shots, —Detection, for each detected shot of the video, of a frame, called stable frame, having the smallest content variation of the shot, —Calculation of a local fingerprint for said stable frame.

Abstract: The invention concerns a food composition, in particular an animal food composition, comprising a coating designed to provide a roasted appearance to the cooked product, said coating including at least a pigment or colorant source and a protein source.
