Adams, CFA Digital Media Technology 415.962.4553, [email protected] Wireless Technology Jason Tsai 415.318.7069, [email protected] Erik Rasmussen 415.318-7074, [email protected] The Battle Is On! Enabling the Digital Media Home Network FOR DISCLOSURE INFORMATION, REFER TO MONTGOMERY & CO.’S FACTS & DISCLOSURES ON PAGES 18 & 19 Digital Media Technology & Wireless Technology May 16, 2007 INVESTMENT SUMMARY The battle for the digital media The battle for superiority in the next great digital media market opportunity—the digital multimedia home network is on. home network—is on. And, like all great digital media markets, this one just makes good intuitive sense. Digital media consumers worldwide have a great appetite for digital content and they have a desire to move that content around the home. We believe that, necessitated by the continuing adoption of the digital video recorder (DVR) and other content storage technologies, accelerated by the rapid ramp of digital and high-definition television technologies, and enabled by the deep pockets of the telcos and cable operators, this market is poised for significant growth over the next several years and represents one of the largest-volume semiconductor opportunities in the digital media component space to date. The digital media networked The digital multimedia home network opportunity has been necessitated by the increasing ability of home—a function of recording... the consumer to record (or download) and display video content. Over the last several years consumers, especially in North America, have grown fond of recording content and storing it to hard drive solutions. -

It reflects the experience of the Security Laboratory of Thomson in the development of SmartRight. This paper does not only account the chosen technical solutions. It also explores less technical but highly important issues such as the social, legal and commercial aspects. Hence, while carefully developing our motivations, some light is shed on the very peculiar problems raised by the enforcement of copy protection. -

Often these schemes are computation, or algorithm, to decode the described as either “HW” or “SW” based protected content. security or rights management systems. Since SW requires HW on which to execute, Most digital CA systems employ a unique and HW has necessarily SW running on it, key that enables a successful computation. the terminology is often thoroughly confusing The locations on the Set-Top Box (STB) for and misleading.

NCTA Comments on the ENERGY STAR Version 4.1 STB Specification
April 13, 2012 Katharine Kaplan EPA Team Lead ENERGY STAR Product Development US Environmental Protection Agency 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20460 [email protected] Re: ENERGY STAR® Specification for Set-top Boxes Version 4.0 Dear Ms. Kaplan: On behalf of the National Cable & Telecommunications Association (“NCTA”), I am responding to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (“EPA”) March 20, 2012 request for comment on ENERGY STAR® Specification for Set-top Boxes Version 4.0 (“ESv4”). Since the adoption of EPA’s Energy Star Version 3.0 and 4.0 specifications for set-top boxes, the cable industry has launched new initiatives dedicated to improving the energy efficiency of cable-provided consumer set-top boxes on an aggressive timeline. These new initiatives include (1) the creation of CableLabs - Energy Lab (a specific facility within CableLabs1 dedicated to improving energy efficiency); (2) focused projects to increase the efficiency of set-top boxes through development of “light sleep” and “deep sleep” set-top box modes that function with U.S. cable system architectures; and (3) cable operator volume procurement commitments for set-top boxes that meet ENERGY STAR standards to move the 1 Cable Television Laboratories or CableLabs, founded in 1988, is the cable industry’s R&D consortium playing a role similar to that played by BellLabs for the telephone industry. CableLabs has over 40 cable operator members representing over 80 million customers, predominantly in North American (US and Canada), but also internationally in Europe, Asia, and Central America. Among other things, CableLabs developed common specifications for the cable modem enabling the size and price of such modems to plummet in a short time as they were made available at retail outlets across the country which, in turn, spurred the revolution in broadband access the Nation has experienced in recent years. -

This paper addresses the several design trade-offs which should be considered by a system operator in selecting a security and In analog television, there is basically only access control sub-system for protecting digital one decision which must be made for access television signals on cable television systems. control; that is, whether to descramble the Factors are discussed which have a strong incoming signal or not. The same descrambler impact on the strength, adaptability, and cost in the set-top converter is used whether the of such systems. The principles discussed in system has one scrambled channel or many. this paper apply whether the primary source of The sophistication and depth of the scrambling security and access control in the subscriber mechanism is limited because the analog signal home is found in a set-top decoder, a decoder is very difficult to reconstruct without leaving interface unit, a home server, or as an insertion unacceptable artifacts in the visible picture. in an MPEG-capable computer or television Therefore, with only one, very limited, receiver. process to protect the analog television signal, meaningful security is difficult. Some later systems, which use line shuffling under the SCOPE control of a modem cryptographic system and hard-encrypted audio, are much superior in This paper will address the options which this aspect, but are costly and have come too system operators should consider in choosing late relative to the advent of digital television. -

Advances in Digital Video Content Protection EUGENE T. LIN, STUDENT MEMBER, IEEE, AHMET M. ESKICIOGLU, REGINALD L. LAGENDIJK, SENIOR MEMBER, IEEE, AND EDWARD J. DELP, FELLOW, IEEE Invited Paper The use of digital video offers immense opportunities for of illegal copying and distribution on a massive scale. This creators; however, the ability for anyone to make perfect copies problem is not merely theoretical. Popular Internet software and the ease by which those copies can be distributed also facilitate based on a peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture (such as Kazaa misuse, illegal copying and distribution (“piracy”), plagiarism, and misappropriation. Popular Internet software based on a [1], BitTorrent [2], eDonkey [3], and Gnutella) has been used peer-to-peer architecture has been used to share copyrighted to share (distribute) copyrighted music, movies, software, movies, music, software, and other materials.
