  • Patent number: 7221959
    Abstract: A system and method for determining, storing and utilizing terminal operating mode data in a telecommunication system, in which the user can selectively set his terminal into two or more distinct operating modes. When the operating mode of the user's terminal is changed, information regarding the change of operating mode is sent from the user terminal to a telecommunication server using any available and/or otherwise available technique available in the telecommunication network. The user terminal operating mode change is stored on the telecommunication server for access by parties seeking to contact or communicate with the user's terminal.

  • Publication number: 20060168227
    Abstract: A system and method for progressively downloading a content file. An electronic device including a browser application, and a server including a metafile and an associated content file. When a user desires to progressively download the content file to the electronic device, the electronic device reads the metafile to determine whether the content file is capable of being subject to progressive downloading. If the content file is capable of being subject to progressive downloading, the content file is progressively downloaded to the electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20060106723
    Abstract: The invention relates to supporting a flexible use of encrypted media objects at an electronic device 10. The encrypted media objects are received at the device 10 in at least one data package. The data package includes in addition a non-editable playlist, which comprises a respective reference to at least one encrypted media object. Upon receipt of such a data package, a new, editable playlist is created. To this editable playlist, either at least one referenced encrypted media object in the at least one data package or a reference to a storage location of at least one referenced encrypted media object from the at least one data package in the electronic device 10 is added.

  • Publication number: 20060080740
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method, a system, network entities and computer program products for adapting digital rights management protected content for a receiving terminal. In the method protected content is sent from a sending terminal to a content sender network entity. The content sender network entity sends information identifying the receiving terminal and at least part of the protected content to a content issuer network entity. The content issuer network entity determines an appropriate form of the protected content for the receiving terminal and sends the determined appropriate form of the protected content or information identifying the appropriate form to the content sender network entity. The content sender network entity then sends the appropriate form of the protected content to the receiving terminal.

  • Publication number: 20060075226
    Abstract: A method for assembling a data file 10, 20 including encrypted content and a rights object 18, 26 enabling at least one electronic device 35 to decrypt the encrypted content. In order to enable a fast access to the rights object, the method comprises inserting an offset descriptor 51 into the data file. The offset descriptor includes an indication of an offset at least of the portion 17, 25 of the data file comprising the rights object. A further method comprises at the at least one electronic device 35 receiving the data file from a content provider 31, evaluating the offset descriptor during a continued reception of the data file, and requesting the content provider to provide immediately a portion of the data file beginning at the offset.

  • Publication number: 20060059267
    Abstract: Provided are improved systems, methods, and devices for downloading content using a second transport protocol within a generic content download protocol, such as using a FLUTE session to download content within a DLOTA session. The DLOTA download descriptor file can point to a media object which is a FLUTE session descriptor file. The DLOTA session permits the FLUTE session to occur before sending an install notification, or content download notification. This type of binding permits users to receive multicast and broadcast unidirectional content delivery masked by a generic content download protocol. Accordingly, the generic content delivery architecture can provide additional functionality to the underlying transfer protocol, such as dynamic capability check, user confirmation, and content download notification.
