    Abstract: Systems, devices and automated processes detect piracy of broadcast television signals through selective delay of decrypted code words that are used to render satellite or other received television signals. Smart cards or similar access control hardware are programmed to selectively delay delivery of cryptographic code words based upon the identity of the receiver device. The delayed delivery of the code words produces intentional glitches in the content rendered by the receiver, thereby allowing viewers of the rendered content to ascertain the identity of the device.

    Abstract: Methods, devices and systems are provided for recording a broadcast media program using a media device. An exemplary method involves receiving audiovisual content for the broadcast media program from a distribution network and receiving via the distribution network, an indication to adjust a recording timer associated with the broadcast media program scheduled for recording in accordance with a broadcast schedule. In response to the indication, a recording timer associated with the broadcast media program is automatically adjusted to deviate from the broadcast schedule, and the audiovisual content is automatically recorded in accordance with the adjusted recording timer.

    Abstract: Arrangements for preparing a television channel for presentation are presented. A tuner of a television receiver may tune to a first television channel and the first television channel may be output for presentation. One or more idle tuners of the television receiver may be identified. One or more television channels other than the first television channel may be selected for preparation. The one or more television channels may be selected prior to receiving user input selecting a television channel of the one or more television channels for presentation. Each of the one or more television channels may be prepared for presentation by tuning, by each tuner of the one or more idle tuners, to the one or more television channels prior to receiving the user input selecting the television channel of the one or more television channels for presentation.
