Abstract

A method, an apparatus and a system for authorization-dependent access to multimedia contents. A first terminal produces a first request for a multimedia content for an output of the multimedia content via the first terminal. A first authorization information item is used to check that the output of the multimedia content is authorized. The first terminal produces a second request for an output of the multimedia content via a second terminal. A check is carried out to determine whether to output a first security note via the first terminal. The output of the multimedia content takes place via the second terminal if the first security note is not to be output, or an input of a confirming acknowledgement for the first security note is identified by the first terminal.
