A method for authenticating a user of an application stored on a first terminal, able to communicate with a service provider through a first communication link. The provider requires authentication of the user of the application before a service is provided to the application. The Method includes: receiving a request to access an application stored on the first terminal; creating a code associated with the received access request; transmitting, by the first terminal, to an authenticated second terminal, via a second communication link, a request to provide authentication data via a second communication link, the request including the obtained code; receiving, via a third communication link, the input code and authentication data delivered by the second terminal; and transmitting the authentication data via the first link to the service provider if the received code corresponds to the transmitted code.

Management of the authentication of a terminal to access a service of a service provider

A management method performed by a management entity of a terminal. The method includes starting up the terminal, referred to as a current startup. The terminal includes a plurality of applications stored in the terminal and programmed to be executed after or in parallel with startup of the terminal. The management entity manages execution of the plurality of applications stored in the terminal, by spreading execution of the applications over time. In response to a duration between a start of the current startup and a start of a previous startup being less than a given duration, the management entity increases duration between the execution times of the plurality of applications for a next startup.

Method for managing the execution of applications stored in a terminal

A method for managing, in a reader terminal, streaming of a televisual content, called the main content, and of a navigation interface concomitantly from a telecommunication network, the navigation interface has regions including contents representative of real-time televisual contents available for selection, which contents are called secondary contents. The method includes the following steps, in the multimedia-stream reader terminal: receiving a command to display the navigation interface; and transmitting a request to access secondary contents of the interface, the request including a datum representative of a type of secondary contents to be streamed, the chosen image type taking into account a datum related to the streaming of the main content.

Method for rendering a multimedia content and a navigation interface on a screen

A method for managing progressive and adaptive streaming of digital content within a multimedia stream player terminal connected to a communication network, the digital content being associated with a description file of the digital content, which includes a list of time segments of the content each associated with several encoding bit rates or qualities of the content. The method implements: obtaining a connection speed to the communication network determined from a size and a streaming time of at least one already streamed time segment, and selecting, for at least one subsequent time segment to be streamed, a maximum quality of the content, depending on the connection speed and a ratio, called a gain factor, between an actual encoding bit rate of the already streamed time segment and the quality associated with the time segment in the description file.
