Abstract: Le système consiste à convertir en élévation à un format 4-2-2 un signal vidéo reçu à composantes numériques avec entrelacement 2-1 de format 4-2-0, à combiner un signal vidéo à composantes numériques avec entrelacement 2-1 et un signal d'amélioration par étalement de bandes à chrominance verticale avec les composantes de chrominance afin de simuler plus étroitement la résolution de chrominance verticale à bande plus étalée du signal de format initial 4:2:2 dont provient au départ le signal de format 4:2:0. Dans une première variante, le signal d'amélioration de chrominance verticale découle des transitions verticales de la composante de luminance du signal de format 4:2:0. Dans une autre variante, le signal d'amélioration de chrominance verticale est obtenu à partir des transitions verticales de la composante de luminance du signal de format 4:2:0 lorsque ces transitions verticales existent et, en l'absence de transition de luminance, le signal d'amélioration de chrominance verticale est obtenu à partir des composantes de chrominance à fréquence d'échantillonage réduite du signal du format 4:2:0. Dans toutes les variantes, le signal d'amélioration de chrominance verticale est un signal à 'étalement de bandes' qui reproduit un signal détaillé de chrominance verticale à bandes étalées. Le signal détaillé de chrominance verticale découle automatiquement du signal vidéo de format 4:2:0 proprement dit et n'exige aucune transmission ou mémorisation de signaux auxiliaires.

Abstract: Dans  un système d'accès conditionnel, l'information transmise est enregistrée sous une forme (SV) brouillée. De ce fait, tout accès à l'information (SV) enregistrée est conditionné par le fait qu'un ou plusieurs mot(s) de commande (CW) approprié(s) soient disponibles. Afin d'autoriser l'accès à l'information enregistrée (SV), des messages de contrôle d'admissibilité (ECM) de données de régénération de mot de commande (KRD) sont mémorisées. Le ou les mots de commande (CW) peuvent difficilement être dérivés de ces messages de contrôle d'admissibilité (ECM) de données de régénération de mot de commande (KRD). Un dispositif de sécurité (SCD) est, toutefois, en mesure d'extraire le ou les mots de commande (CW) appropriés des messages de contrôle d'admissibilité (ECM) de données de régénération de mot de commande (KRD). Un opérateur de système régit efficacement les opérations exécutées dans le dispositif de sécurité (SCD). De ce fait, si cet opérateur de système le souhaite, il peut arrêter l'extraction du ou des mots de commande (CW) et, partant, interdire l'accès à l'information enregistrée (SV). Il est possible, par exemple, de mettre en oeuvre ce système d'accès conditionnel dans une télévision à péage ou dans des multimédias.
