A data management system that protects data into a continuous object store includes a management interface having a time control. The time control allows an administrator to specify a “past” time, such as a single point or range. When the time control is set to a single point, a hierarchical display of data appears on a display exactly as the data existed in the system at that moment in the past. Preferably, the visualization includes both the structure of the hierarchy (e.g., the identity of the directories, their files, databases, and the like) and also the contents of the data objects themselves (i.e., what was in the files and databases). The time control enables the management interface to operate within a history mode in which the display provides a visual representation of a “virtual” point in time in the past during which the data management system has been operative to provide the data protection service. In addition, the management interface can be toggled to operate in a real-time mode, which provides an active view of the system data as it changes in real-time, typically driven by changes to primary storage. This real-time mode provides the user with the ability to view changes that occur to a set of data currently visible on the display screen. The interface also allows an administrator to specify and manage policy including, without limitation, how long data is retained in the management system. A policy engine enables the user to assert “temporal-based” policy over data objects.

Some embodiments provide a method of specifying speed effects for playing a video clip. The method defines a set of speed effects for the video clip. It then displays in real-time a presentation of the video clip that accounts for the set of speed effects defined for the video clip. In some embodiments, this method represents the playback speed of a video clip in terms of a graph that is part of a graphical user interface (“GUI”). This graph is defined along two axes, with one axis representing the playback time, and the other axis representing the content-time (i.e., the time within the video clip). In these embodiments, a user can change the playback speed of the video clip by using a set of GUI operations to select and modify the graph. For instance, a user can select and adjust the graph at different instances in time in order to change the playback speed of the video clip at these instances. Different embodiments use different types of graphs to represent playback speed. For instance, some embodiments use a deformable line bar that is superimposed on a rectangle that represents the video clip.

In a service enabling viewing of a rental content time-limit-managed by a copyright protection system (DRM) for a certain time period from first-time viewing in a video download service through a network, even possible viewing times for the content under the one and another copyright protection systems when the content is exported to a removable medium in conformity with the other system (CPS) before first-time viewing under DRM management are synchronized. When a content time-limit-managed by a copyright protection system is exported to a removable recording medium in conformity with a different content protection system, a URL for a management server is designated and a request is made of the designated management server to fix a possible viewing time if the URL of the management server is designated when the content is viewed for the first time in a content reproducer in conformity with the content protection system.

A proxy content server responds to a request message from a user terminal by determining whether the message is a registration request or a content request. If the message is a registration request, the proxy content server maps the user terminal to a registered content server in a memory. If the message is a content request for requesting a content from a server, the proxy content server requests it to send content data to the user terminal if the content server is registered in the memory and the user terminal is mapped to the registered content server. If the user terminal is not mapped to the requested server, the user is not entitled to access the requested server and informed of this fact.
