PROCESSING RECORDABLE CONTENT IN A STREAM
First Claim
1. A method of transforming recordable content protected in accordance with a conditional access system into content protected in accordance with a digital rights management system, the method comprising:
- receiving a content stream and one or more entitlement control messages associated with said content stream, at least one of said entitlement control messages comprising at least one first key for decrypting data in said content stream and recording information indicating one or more events in said content stream to be recordable;
selecting at least one recordable event;
decrypting data packets associated with said selected event using said first key;
providing a DRM key associated with said digital rights management system; and
encrypting at least part of said data packets under said DRM key.

Abstract
Methods and a systems are described for processing recordable content in a broadcast stream sent to a receiver, wherein said broadcast stream is protected in accordance with a conditional access system and wherein said receiver is configured for storing and consuming content in said broadcast stream in accordance with a digital rights management system. In this methods and systems recording information is sent in one or more entitlement control messages over a broadcast network to a receiver. Using the recording information in the entitlement control messages the receiver is able to store recordable events in a broadcast stream on a storage medium and to consume said recorded events in accordance with a digital rights management system.

6. A method of decrypting of at least part of a recorded event associated with a content stream originating from a conditional access system, said stored event being protected in accordance with a digital rights management system, wherein said digital rights management system comprises an interface with said conditional access system and wherein said conditional access system is configured for generating a DRM key for decrypting said stored event, the method comprising:
-
selecting at least one event stored on a storage medium; providing recording information associated with said selected event, said recording information comprising at least one content identifier for identifying said stored event and a key reference for enabling said conditional access system to generate at least one DRM key; providing location information associated with at least one server in said digital rights management system; sending said recording information via said server to said conditional access system; receiving at least one DRM key generated by said conditional access system; and decrypting said stored event for consumption using said DRM key.

7. A receiver system for receiving recordable content in a content stream protected in accordance with a conditional access system and for transforming said content into content protected in accordance with a digital rights management system, said content encryption system comprising:
-
an input for receiving said content stream and one or more associated entitlement control messages, at least one of said entitlement control messages comprising a first key and recording information; a recording detector for detecting a recording identifier in said recording information, said recording identifier indicating that one or more events in said broadcast stream are recordable; a selector for selecting at least one of said recordable events identified by said recording detector. a conditional access descrambler for decrypting at least one data packet in said broadcast stream using said first key; a DRM key generator for generating a DRM key; and a DRM scrambler for encrypting data packets associated with a selected recordable event under said DRM key. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
