Abstract:
A system and method for distributing content over multiple networks may include at least two encoders configured to encode the content in formats for play on devices having different formats. A metadata management unit may be configured to apply information associated with the content to the content in the form of metadata. A content management server may be in communication with the encoders and be configured to receive and store the content. A conditional access digital rights management server may be in communication with the content management server and be configured to authenticate a user. A middleware server may be in communication with the content management server and be configured to manage a program guide accessible to users to view and select content to play on a device. Devices of different formats may be configured to access the content management server and select content to play via the program guide.
