See full text

When new software is received by air in the form of successive blocks by a video receiver having a specialized digital video processing module (19), connected by a first bus (28) to a specialized video memory (29), and a microprocessor (15) connected by a second bus (27) to a rewritable program memory (26), the microprocessor verifies the blocks of this new software one by one and stores them in the video memory (29) of the specialized video processing module until the new software is complete. Not until that moment will the new software be transferred to the program memory (26).
