摘要:
A list of computing components to be disabled can be distributed through a computer readable medium to computing devices. A process on these computing devices can read the list and disable listed components. The components can be permanently disabled, or disabled for a limited purpose. A list or list update may be provided with a digital media object that specifies a more or less stringent revocation policy for that object. A media object may also specify a maximum age for the list. This allows owners of digital media to control the stringency of media protection for their property. The process that accesses the list may prompt updates to the list, informing users of component disabling, and prompt replacement of disabled components. Finally, the invention provides techniques for securely transmitting and storing the list to protect it from alteration by unauthorized entities.

摘要:
A system for processing a media content comprising an application space, a media control mechanism operating in the application space, the media control mechanism controlling the operation of the system, a user interface adapted to provide input to the media control mechanism, a protected space distinct from the application space, and a protected media pipeline operating in the protected space, the protected media pipeline coupled to the media control mechanism, the protected media pipeline adapted to access the media content, process the media content, and output the media content.
摘要:
Media processing methods, systems and application program interfaces (APIs) are described. In but one embodiment, a media engine component, also referred to as a media engine, provides a simple and unified way of rendering media from an origin to a destination of choice without requiring intimate knowledge about the underlying components, their connectivity and management. Clients of the media engine need not worry about how to render the particular media, but rather can simply focus on what media to render and where to render the media. In at least one embodiment, a media session is provided and is encapsulated by the media engine and provides a mechanism by which additional components are made transparent to the application and, in at least some embodiment, the media engine. In some embodiments, the media engine and media session provide a simple API for building, configuring, and manipulating a pipeline of components (e.g. media sources, transforms, and sinks) for media flow control between an origin and one or more destinations.
摘要:
Techniques relating to managing multimedia transmissions in terminal services scenarios are described. In one instance, a method sends a user-interface component from a server to a remote client. The method further streams a media component for presentation on the remote client in combination with the user-interface component and wherein the media presentation is tracked but not displayed by the server.
