Cinea executives will be on hand to demonstrate and highlight new functions for our Running Marks™ watermarking product

• We will demonstrate the Enhanced Revenue Protection extension to our Running Marks Watermarking product used to combat illegal re-broadcast and/or commercial misuse of broadcast content.  Running Marks’ Enhanced Revenue Protection extension enables the discreet display of the set-top box identifier (STB ID) on the video display.

Stopping the IP Pirates
A key element of securing revenues in next generation video entertainment is in the area of Content Security. There is no doubt that the driving mechanism for next generation video will be IP, but are the content owners still scared of the “I” in “IP”? Does it mean that new operators are going to be plagued with piracy? Specificallly addressing the role of DRM; is DRM doomed to be proprietary, and which DRM is expected to be dominant (if any)? How does DRM and service authorization based security co-exist and complement each other?

April 18: 4:20 - 5:00 Digital Rights in a Cross-Platform World S222/223
Featured Presentation: EMC, Dwight DeClouette, Business Development Manager, EMC

Operators and content owners are seeking to maximize the value of their businesses by repurposing programming across multiple platforms: TV, Internet, mobile, games, and so on. But the strategy could backfire if the strategy invites wholesale piracy. How can intellectual property be protected -- without "dumbing it down" by degrading the quality of video storage to prevent it from being copies?

Digital Media Summit
March 13 - March 14, 2007
Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel - Los Angeles, California, USA

March 14: 12:00 - 12:40 What Digital Rights?
An entire generation has grown up that cares nothing for the digital rights of TV networks, labels or movie studios -- at least where big acts are concerned. Even those kids who don't actively download copyrighted material readily trade albums' digital tracks among themselves. Can a DRM strategy work in this environment?
