Abstract: A system and method by which an application is capable of accessing its own DRM information stored in a content-agnostic DRM system. By being able to access its own DRM information, the application is able to improve the overall user experience by, among other things, making DRM-related information available to the user and providing potential options to the user which may not have been previously available.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic device comprising an interface for providing a connection with an accessory. The accessory includes a library for enabling said electronic device to use the accessory. The electronic device further comprises means for providing said library available to the electronic device. The invention also relates to a mobile communication device and a system. The invention further relates to a method for accessing accessory functionality to applications of an electronic device; a computer program product for implementing the method; and a method for providing access to an accessory of an electronic device.

Abstract: A method and corresponding apparatus are disclosed whereby a user initially establishes a profile 202 of content in which she has an interest. The profile 202 is used to filter 204 metadata relating to broadcasts made to a receiver 106 such as a Set Top Box and the personalised metadata is delivered to her personal trusted device 176 such as a PDA, for example. A final selection of content to be rendered by the receiver 106 is made via the PTD 176.

Abstract: Method for addressing at least one service in a data communication system comprises at least one data transmission network (6, 12a, 12b, 15a, 15b, 16, 17) for transmitting information in at least one preferably MPEG data transmission stream (TS). In the method one or several service_providers transmits services to one or several data transmission networks (6, 12a, 12b, 15a, 15b, 16, 17). The service is assigned an identification (original_network_id, transport_stream_id, service_id), wherein on basis of the identification (original_network_id, transport_stream_id, service_id), it is possible to retrieve the data transmission stream (TS) to be used and the location in the data transmission stream (TS). The service is assigned an identifying name (service_provider_name, service_name) and a relation between the name information and the identification data, wherein on the basis of the name information (service_provider_name, service_name) and the relation, it is possible to retrieve the service identification.
