Abstract: In one embodiment of the invention, a content is composed for delivery over a network to a subsystem. The content has a package containing a content. The package has package elements. The package and the package elements are tagged using meta-data. The meta-data are serialized into a file system compatible with the subsystem using a markup language.

Abstract: A system architecture provides a hardware-based root of trust solution for supporting distribution and playback of premium digital content. In an embodiment, hardware root of trust for digital content and services is a solution where the basis of trust for security purposes is rooted in hardware and firmware mechanisms in a client computing system, rather than in software. From this root of trust, the client computing system constructs an entire media processing pipeline that is protected for content authorization and playback. In embodiments of the present invention, the security of the client computing system for content processing is not dependent on the operating system (OS), basic input/output system (BIOS), media player application, or other host software.

Abstract: A client computing system renders digital content (such as, for example, a movie or TV program) for a user. Based on the user's interest, the user may select an object image in a video frame of a sequence of video frames of the digital content being rendered. The user input data indicating the object image selection may be sent to a service provider server coupled to the client computing system over a network via a secure communications channel. The server obtains information about an object corresponding to the user-selected object image. The server sends the object information to the client computing system for display to the user. The object may be an object in the physical world, such as a consumer good. The object information may include information enabling the user to purchase the object.

Abstract: A client computing system inserts selected advertising into digital content. Ads may be inserted into content based on a dynamic advertising matching process that is securely implemented within a hardware-based root of trust. User profiles used in ad matching may be privacy protected and maintained with confidentiality protection in the client computing system and/or a service provider server, respectively. When a client computing system makes a request to the service provider server for content with specified ad slots, the request may be made with the client's EPID signature, which is inherently privacy protected. The hardware-based root of trust protects insertion of selected ads into the linear rendering flow of the content.

Abstract: Securely sharing content between a first system and a second system is provided. A hardware-based root of trust is established between the first system and a server. Content requested by a user and an encrypted license blob associated with the content is received by the first system from the server. A first agent on the first system connects with a second agent on the second system. The encrypted license blob and a sub-license request are sent from the first agent to a security processor on the first system. The first security processor decrypts the encrypted license blob, validates the sub-license request, and if allowed, creates a sub-license to allow the second system to play the content. The first security processor sends the sub-license to a security processor on the second system. The first system provides access to the content to the second system for future playback according to the sub-license.
