Abstract: A method of communicating control information in a satellite broadcast communication system is presented. In the method, at least one copy of a control message set is transmitted from a control system by way of a satellite to a broadcast receiver. The control message set includes at least one control message. At least one copy of each of the control messages of the control message set is received at the broadcast receiver. A feedback message is transmitted from the broadcast receiver by way of a terrestrial communication link to the control system. The feedback message includes an indication that all of control messages of the control message set were received at the broadcast receiver. The feedback message is received at the control system. In response to receiving the feedback message, transmission of subsequent copies of the control message set is terminated at the control system.

Abstract: A method of recommending media content is presented. In the method, a first media content receiver receives from a first user an indication of recommended media content and an identity of a second user. The indication and an identity of the first user are transmitted to a second media content receiver associated with the second user. The indication, the identity of the first user, and available commands associated with the recommended media content are presented via the second media content receiver to the second user. The second media content receiver receives a selection of one of the available commands from the second user. The recommended media content is processed at the second media content receiver according to the selected command.

Abstract: A method of communication involving a media content receiver is presented. In the method, the media content receiver receives a message including an address. The receiver processes the address to determine whether the address is associated with the media content receiver. Additionally, if a removable circuit device is installed in the receiver, the receiver processes the address to determine whether the address is associated with the installed removable circuit device. If the address is associated with the media content receiver, the receiver processes the message. If the address is associated with the removable circuit device, the receiver transfers the message to the removable circuit device, which then processes the message.
