1. A method for managing content, the method comprising:
- receiving first encrypted content from a first media device through a network;
decrypting, by a decryption device, the first encrypted content into first decrypted content;
receiving second encrypted content from a second media device different from said first media device through the network;
decrypting, by the decryption device, the second encrypted content into second decrypted content; and
sending data representative of said first or second decrypted content to a probe device to verify transmission of the content.

Abstract
A content distribution system is disclosed that supports verification of transmission. In some embodiments, a remote probe device captures content and sends the content to a decrypting device so that decryption may be performed. The decrypting device may archive the content and may subsequently send the content to the probe device or to a playback device so that the content may be displayed. Consequently, the content distribution system can verify that specified content (e.g., an advertisement) was correctly distributed according to scheduled information.
