SCRAMBLING, DESCRAMBLING AND SECURED DISTRIBUTION OF AUDIO-VISUAL SEQUENCES FROM VIDEO CODERS BASED ON WAVELETS PROCESSING

摘要

A process for secured distribution of video sequences according to a digital stream format stemming from an encoding based on a processing by wavelets including frames including blocks containing coefficients of wavelets describing the visual elements, including analyzing the stream prior to transmission to client equipment to generate a modified main stream by deletion and replacement of selected information coding the original stream and having the format of the original stream, and complementary information of any format comprising the digital information coding the original stream and suitable for permitting reconstruction of the modified frames; and transmitting the modified main stream and the complementary information separately from a server to addressed equipment.
