Abstract

A remotely controlled uplink server system has a remote access interface that allows multiple user groups to individually control their respective media files. The user groups also have individual control over their respective remote receivers. The control over the media files includes file uploading, file management and file distribution and the control over the remote receivers includes the identification and grouping of receivers, managing the play list, scheduling and storage space on the receivers and selecting media channels. Through the remote access interface into the uplink server system, each one of the user groups operates and controls its own fully functioning network operations center, sharing the uplink facility with the other user groups. The uplink server also includes a media manager for storing and managing the media files, a network controller for combining control instructions for the remote receivers with the media files in a broadcast signal, and a transmitter for sending the broadcast signal to the remote receivers over the satellite network.
