Abstract
A video content presentation terminal includes a video content receiver that is configured to receive video content and presentation override controls for the video content. The presentation override controls define presentation restrictions for the video content. The video content presentation terminal also includes an applications processor that is configured to execute applications on the video content presentation terminal. The applications include presentation format requests. The video content presentation terminal also includes a controller that is responsive to the video content receiver and the applications processor. The controller is configured to format the content that was received for presentation on a content presentation device according to the presentation override controls that were received, while preventing implementation of the presentation format requests that are made by the applications that are inconsistent with the presentation override controls. Related systems, methods and devices are described.
