  • the processing step comprises the step converting the data to another format.
  • the processing step may comprise the step of converting data from an SVGA format to an NTSC or PAL format.
  • the processing step comprises the step of decrypting data which is encrypted.
  • the data which is transmitted by the video provider may be encrypted to prevent use of the data by other than the viewer or other authorized person. This may be useful, for example, in preventing the data from being intercepted and played by others.
  • the video provider may provide decryption data, such as a key, for use in decrypting the data for playback.
  • the apparatus and method of the invention permit a viewer to obtain, at any time, a particular video content. In this manner, the invention achieves the desired "video on demand.”
  • the apparatus 20 and system of the invention may permit a user to obtain "customized" video content. For example, if a user wishes to obtain only the weather and sports portions of a news program, the viewer may select those elements from a menu. Those selected portions only may then be transferred to the viewer for viewing.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil d'obtention de vidéo d'un réseau, et de présentation de la vidéo obtenue. A cet effet, on commence par établir une connexion avec un réseau, on sélectionne un contenu vidéo à obtenir via le réseau, puis on reçoit les données représentant le contenu vidéo via la connexion réseau. On stocke ensuite sur disque les données représentant le contenu vidéo, on reprend du disque les données représentant le contenu vidéo, et on transfère en vue d'une présentation des données vidéo sur un afficheur. Cet appareil comprend d'abord une interface réseau permettant de recevoir des données en provenance d'un réseau et de les envoyer vers le réseau. L'appareil comprend également une mémoire à disque, ainsi qu'un enregistreur capable de stocker sur la mémoire à disque les données représentant une vidéo récupérée via l'interface réseau. L'appareil comprend enfin un module de restitution capable, d'une part de récupérer depuis une mémoire à disque des données représentant une vidéo, et d'autre part de traiter ces données en vue de leur présentation par une télévision.
