| 20100118938 | ENCODER AND METHOD FOR GENERATING A STREAM OF DATA - A method generates a stream of data, wherein the stream comprises a plurality of encoded data blocks. The encoded data blocks comprise a plurality of self-contained blocks including all information for decoding the block and a plurality of blocks including only partial information for decoding. The distance of the self-contained blocks in the stream is varied dependent on the content encoded in the stream. The stream is a main stream, and wherein tuning into the main stream is effected via a secondary stream comprising at least a subset of the data blocks of the main stream encoded at a quality different from a quality of the data blocks of the main stream. The self-contained blocks are inserted at positions in the main stream where differences in the quality of the data encoded in the main stream and in the secondary stream are less detectable. | 05-13-2010 |
| 20100189256 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR STORING AND READING A FILE HAVING A MEDIA DATA CONTAINER AND METADATA CONTAINER - An apparatus for recording a file having a related media data container and a metadata container, the apparatus a receiver for receiving first data packets having packetized first media data samples based on a first clock, and for receiving second data packets having second media data samples based on a second clock different from the first clock, wherein the second media data samples are associated to the first media data samples, and for receiving first control packets including information for indicating a relationship of the first clock to a reference clock and for receiving second control packets including information for indicating a relationship of the second clock to the reference clock, and a recorder for storing the received first and second data packets and at least a portion of the received first and second control packets in the media data container, and for storing associated metadata in the metadata container, the associated metadata having timing information of the received first and second data packets and the received first and second control packets and location information indicating a location of the stored first and second data packets and the stored first and second control packets in the media data container. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100189424 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING AND READING A FILE HAVING A MEDIA DATA CONTAINER AND A METADATA CONTAINER - An apparatus for processing stored data packets in a media data container and stored associated meta information in a metadata container, the associated meta information having transport timing information and location information indicating a storage location of the stored data packets in the media data container, the apparatus having a processor for determining, based on the stored data packets and the stored associated meta information, decoding information for a media payload of the stored data packets, wherein the decoding information indicates at which time instant to replay which payload of the stored data packets. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100198798 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR STORING AND READING A FILE HAVING A MEDIA DATA CONTAINER AND A METADATA CONTAINER - A concept is disclosed for outputting a file having a media data container and a metadata container, the concept including providing an error information related to a data sample and storing the error information together with a sample number related to the data sample in the metadata container. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100212022 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DIGITAL RIGHTS MANAGEMENT - A digital rights management method includes: storing information on a rights object in a memory area, wherein the rights object has been transferred from a first device to a second device, and wherein the rights object includes permissions linked to a digital media object; receiving a rights object at the first device; and accessing the memory area to check whether information on the received rights object is stored in the memory area and to set up the received rights object on the first device in case the information on the received rights object is not stored in the memory area, and to reject the received rights object in case the information on the received rights object is stored in the memory area. | 08-19-2010 |
