Abstract

A personal video service manager (230) can store one or more personal video assets (215) on a server. A personal video asset can comprise a recording of a broadcast stream of a broadcast asset (20) or an asset that has been pre-authored in a personal asset format. Upon receiving a request from a subscriber (295) to receive the personal video asset, the personal video service manager (230) can facilitate a connection between the server and the subscriber for distributing the personal video asset from the server to the subscriber.
