ARRIS Secure Media DRM APIs in Hosted Architecture

摘要

Systems and methods are provided for digital rights management of licensed media content. Client library components and server library components provide digital rights management services. A client-side hosting application accesses client library functionality through invocation of client application programming interfaces (APIs). A server-side hosting application accesses server library functionality through invocation of server APIs. Licenses for specific media content can be requested and issued, and appropriately licensed media content can be played. Client and server library components can function essentially absent direct communication, such as that employing a transport layer. Communications between client and server library components can be carried by the hosting applications.
