1. A method of transmitting conditional access information including entitlement management and control data comprising:

  • forming N-byte conditional access codes of like type, each of which is equal in length to an MPEG start code;

    concatenating M different of said like type N-byte conditional access codes, N an integer and M an integer greater than one;

    selecting one of said N-byte conditional access codes of like type or a special N-byte conditional access code of like type having a predetermined logic state;

    forming a payload including a) said selected one of said N-byte conditional access codes or said special N-byte code, b) concatenating the selected code with concatenated said M different N-byte conditional access codes to form M+1 concatenated N-byte conditional access codes of like type and c) concatenating the concatenated codes with said entitlement management and control data; and

    forming a transport packet having a) a header identifying such transport packet as containing entitlement data, and b) said payload.
