Digital rights management of streaming captured content based on criteria regulating a sequence of elements

摘要

A captured content rights controller detects a first portion of streaming captured content and a second portion of the streaming captured content after the first portion of the streaming captured content is detected. The captured content rights controller determines whether rendering the second portion of the streaming captured content after the first portion of the streaming captured content is subject to at least one digital rights management protection rule for streaming captured content as specified by at least one owner of at least one restricted element within the streaming captured content captured independent of distribution of the content by the owner of the at least one restricted element within the streaming captured content by determining whether the first portion and the second portion of the streaming captured content in sequence represent a particular selection of content elements specified in a selection of a plurality of content elements protected by the at least one digital rights management protection rule. The captured content rights controller applies the at least one digital rights management protection rule to restrict rendering of the second portion of the streaming captured content after the first portion of the streaming captured content.
