Systems and methods that protect transport stream content are disclosed. The system may include a first module and a second module, the first module having a common interface. The second module is coupled to the first module via the common interface. In one embodiment, the first module is a set top box, and the second module is a conditional access card. In one example, the first module demodulates an incoming transport stream, copy protection encrypts the demodulated transport stream and passes the copy protection encrypted transport stream to the second module via the common interface. The second module copy protection decrypts the transport stream received from the first module, conditional access decrypts at least some of packets of the transport stream that were conditional access encrypted, copy protection encrypts the transport stream and passes the copy protection encrypted transport stream to the first module via the common interface.

What is claimed is: 1. In a system that protects transport stream content, the system comprising a first module and a second module, the first module comprising a common interface and being configured to demodulate an incoming transport stream, to copy protection encrypt the demodulated transport stream and to pass the copy protection encrypted transport stream to the second module via the common interface, the second module comprising: a copy protection decryptor configured to copy protection decrypt the transport stream received from the first module; a conditional access decryptor configured to conditional access decrypt at least some of packets of the transport stream that were conditional access encrypted; and a copy protection encryptor configured to copy protection encrypt the transport stream, wherein the second module is configured to pass the copy protection encrypted transport stream to the first module via the common interface. 2. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the first module is configured to copy protection decrypt the transport stream received from the second module. 3. The second module according to claim 2, wherein the first module is configured to copy protection decrypt the entire transport stream received from the second module. 4. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the first module comprises a demodulator, a copy protection encryptor and a processor, the demodulator being operatively coupled to the copy protection encryptor, the copy protection encryptor being operatively coupled to the common interface, and the processor being operatively coupled to the common interface. 5. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the common interface is operatively coupled to the copy protection decryptor, the copy protection decryptor being operatively coupled to the conditional access decryptor, the conditional access decryptor being operatively coupled to the copy protection encryptor, and the copy protection encryptor being operatively coupled to the common interface. 6. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the first module comprises a set top box. 7. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the first module comprises a receiver. 8. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the second module comprises an access card. 9. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the second module comprises a conditional access card. 10. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the second module comprises conditional access circuitry. 11. The second module according to claim 1, wherein the common interface is user accessible. 12. In a system for protecting transport stream content, the system comprising a first module and a second module, the first module comprising a common interface and being configured to demodulate an incoming transport stream, to copy protection encrypt packets of the demodulated transport stream that were not conditional access encrypted, and to pass the copy protection encrypted packets and to pass the conditional access encrypted packets of the transport stream to the second module via the common interface, the second module comprising: a conditional access decryptor configured to conditional access decrypt at least some of the packets of the transport stream that were conditional access encrypted; and a copy protection encryptor configured to encrypt the packets of the transport stream that were conditional access decrypted, wherein the second module is configured to pass the transport stream to the first module via the common interface. 13. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the first module comprises a demodulator, a copy protection encryptor and a processor, the demodulator being operatively coupled to the copy protection encryptor, the copy protection encryptor being operatively coupled to the common interface, and the processor being operatively coupled to the common interface. 14. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the common interface is operatively coupled to the conditional access decryptor, the conditional access decryptor being operatively coupled to the copy protection encryptor, the copy protection encryptor being operatively coupled to the common interface. 15. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the first module comprises a set top box. 16. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the first module comprises a receiver. 17. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the second module comprises an access card. 18. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the second module comprises a conditional access card. 19. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the second module comprises conditional access circuitry. 20. The second module according to claim 12, wherein the common interface is user accessible.
