Sistemi z večpredstavnostnim domačim strežnikom - Dovolilni kod za digitalne pravice (IEC 62227:2008/A1:2012)

Ta mednarodni standard določa dovolilni kod, niz podatkov v zvezi z dovoljenjem v obliki kratkega koda, ki so primarno namenjeni za sisteme z domačim strežnikom. Dovolilni kod je sestavljen iz sistema skupnih ID (ID vsebine, ID izdajatelja, ID prejemnika, ID naprave itd.) in ozko opredeljenega dovolilnega koda. Sistem skupnih ID se uporablja za sistematično identifikacijo vsake osebe, naprave in vsebine, ki je lahko vpletena v potek digitalne distribucije vsebine. Dovolilni kod lahko izraža številne nize podatkov o dovoljenju in pogojih dovoljenja, ki so potrebni za prenos vsebine v zelo kratki obliki koda. Dovolilni kod ni opredeljen iz tehničnega vidika, ampak bolj na podlagi podatkov o dovoljenju, ki jih imetniki pravic dejansko uporabijo na področju. Dovolilni kod odraža njegova tehnična učinkovitost v zvezi z digitalno distribucijo vsebine.

Overview

EN 62227:2008/A1:2013 (CLC adoption of IEC 62227:2008/A1:2012) specifies the digital rights permission code for multimedia home server systems. Published as a CENELEC European amendment (A1, 2013), it updates the base standard to improve permission, usage and content-type descriptors used in Digital Rights Management (DRM) metadata for home multimedia servers and appliances.

Keywords: Multimedia home server systems, Digital rights permission code, EN 62227:2008/A1:2013, DRM metadata, content classification.

Key topics and technical requirements

• New and updated descriptors: Amendment A1 introduces a new content type definition and a permission purpose classification element to expand content and permission granularity.
• Content type classification (Table 5): Adds and clarifies codes for sound, visual, text, image and program types (examples: VM Visual Music, VF Visual Film, IB Image Book, GG General Group).
• Permission classification unit (Table 12): Defines the bit-structured fields and lengths for permission units, including tag, disclosure class, usage purpose class, charge model, billing class, application class, sponsor, territory and usage class.
• Usage purpose and billing: Adds an education permission code (usage_purpose_type = 101b) and specifies that free content billing should be encoded as other (11b).
• Usage class structure (Table 26): Specifies bit-fields for usage_type, redistribution, copy/move/export/share/edit/modify flags, super-distribution and reserved bits.
• Execute and playback usage descriptors (Tables 31 & 33): Defines the structure and field values for execute/playback condition descriptors, including mandatory descriptor_tag values (playback = 0x02, execute = 0x03), control flags, accumulation, timing parameters and parental guidance fields.
• Extended use conditions: Introduces an extended use condition unit and header structure for multiple condition descriptors.
• Expiration semantics: Defines explicit encoding for “not specified” expiration dates as 0xffffffffff.

Practical applications

• Ensures consistent DRM metadata encoding for home media servers, set-top boxes, NAS media servers and consumer gateway devices.
• Supports interoperable permission control, playback restrictions, educational licensing, billing indicators and territorial rights management across vendors.
• Useful for building compliant content provisioning systems, DRM middleware, and testing suites for consumer electronics and service providers.

Who should use this standard

• Device manufacturers and firmware developers for multimedia server products
• DRM architects and content platform engineers
• Broadband and IPTV service providers
• Test laboratories and certification bodies
• Standards committees and implementers aligning to IEC/CENELEC requirements

Related standards

• IEC 62227 (base publication) and associated IEC/TC 100 deliverables on audio, video and multimedia systems.
