Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013102745A1] Control of on-demand services communicated in broadcast mode. The invention relates to a method implemented by a computing entity for providing at least differentiated on-demand services (CjVOD) to a plurality of respective terminals (TVj), with means of communication in broadcast mode of said services. The aforesaid entity generates (S4) an undifferentiated stream (Phi2), which is common to the terminals and comprises at least signalling tables for said on-demand services (CjVOD), each signalling table being dedicated to a terminal (TVj) and each terminal (TVj) being configured so as to read the signalling table for the on-demand service dedicated thereto and ignore the other signalling tables. The computing entity receives (S10), from at least some of the terminals, requests (REQ(IPj)) for on-demand services by return path between the terminals and the computing entity. The computing entity being connected to a source of data of on-demand services (S_VOD), it is thus possible to condition the delivery of the aforesaid data (data_VOD) in the common stream (Phi2) as a function of the requests.
