AUDITOR FOR MONITORING SPLICING OF DIGITAL CONTENT

摘要

An auditor (60) for monitoring digital content spliced into a master program digital stream comprises a receiver for receiving a master program digital stream, a processor, a receiver for receiving a digital stream with spliced digital content and a recorder. The master program digital stream includes program insertion information, which is extracted from the program insertion information by the processor. The processor identifies a time slot (15) in which splicing should occur from the extracted program insertion information. The spliced digital content in the digital stream and/or an identifier therefor is recorded by the recorder (62) for confirming whether the spliced content matches content scheduled for the time slot.
