    Abstract: This application relates to embodiments for providing a content stream to a device from a content server based on a protocol that is established between the device and an account server. The account server can initiate a session with the device and provide the device with a list of channels available for a user account associated with the device. When a channel is selected at the device, conditional access information can be provided from the account server to the device, which can thereafter relay the conditional access information to the content server. The content server can use the conditional access information to verify that the device has the appropriate permission to receive streaming content. In this way, because the conditional access information originates at the account server, permission to access streaming content can be managed by correspondence between the account server and the device, rather than the content server.

    Abstract translation: 本申请涉及用于基于在设备和帐户服务器之间建立的协议从内容服务器向设备提供内容流的实施例。 帐户服务器可以发起与设备的会话,并向设备提供可用于与设备相关联的用户帐户的频道列表。 当在设备上选择频道时,可以从帐户服务器向设备提供条件访问信息,该设备随后可以将条件访问信息中继到内容服务器。 内容服务器可以使用条件访问信息来验证设备是否具有接收流内容的适当权限。 以这种方式,由于条件访问信息来自帐户服务器,所以可以通过帐户服务器和设备之间的对应而不是内容服务器来管理访问流内容的权限。
