  • Publication number: 20240015360
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for distributed DCP over internet. A client-side digital content delivery device receives a digital cinema package (DCP) for a digital movie from a remote digital content delivery system. The DCP includes a unique digital watermark applied by the content delivery system. In response to receiving an input to cause playback of the digital movie, the client-side digital content delivery device compares a unique device identifier for a display device paired to the client-side digital content delivery device to an authorized unique identifier. If the unique device identifier matches the authorized unique identifier, the client-side digital content delivery device uses the DCP to causes presentation of the digital movie by the display device paired to the client-side digital content delivery device.

  • Patent number: 10764305
    Abstract: A digital content delivery system transmits, to a client device, a request for a set of verification data as part of an account registrations process to verify that a user of the client device is providing accurate information regarding their identity. The digital content delivery system receives a subset of the verification data and determines that the user has provided sufficient verification data to verify that the user of the client device is providing accurate information regarding their identity. In response, the digital content delivery system generates a unique identifier for the user account, which enables the user to access digital content maintained by the digital content delivery system. The digital content is provided to the user embedded with the unique identifier for the user account.
