In a method for controlling the use of a program signal in a broadcast
system, comprising one or more broadcasters and a number of receivers, at
least a part of the receivers can be provided with a storage medium for
storing program signals. The program signal comprises content signals of
a first and a second type, wherein the second type of content signals is
inserted in time slots in the first type of content signals. At least the
first type of content signals is scrambled using control words as
scrambling keys to obtain a scrambled program signal. The program signal
is scrambled using control words as scrambling keys and the scrambled
program signal is broadcasted together with entitlement control messages
(ECM's) containing the control words in an encrypted manner using a
second key. Decrypting means are provided at each receiver for retrieving
the control words from the ECM's by decrypting the ECM's, wherein the
control words are delivered by the decrypting means for descrambling the
program signal. At least a plurality of ECM's comprises control
information to control the decrypting means in such a manner that at
least the time slots for second type of content signals are maintained in
the first type of content signals.
