The preferred method involves the use of an embedded data field within the video stream to transport a predetermined/known source string of data which in normal operation is carried intact through the entire head-end, grooming, distribution and access portions of the provider's network. An element or multiple elements are positioned at one or more points in the network. The elements continually monitor the stream to verify that a predetermined data string is located in the embedded data field.

A meat cutlet tenderizing machine having first and second sets of coacting roller cutters between which a meat cutlet is fed is disclosed. The coacting roller cutters of each set are arranged in parallel pairs with rotary tenderizing knives mounted in axially spaced relation on each roller cutter. The second set of roller cutters are vertically spaced with respect to the roller cutters of the first set to permit a meat cutlet to be engaged and perforated simultaneously by the rotary tenderizing knives of both first and second sets as the meat cutlet advances through the coacting roller cutter pairs. The coacting roller cutters are driven by a chain and sprocket assembly in which the drive sprocket coupled to the roller cutters of the second set has a greater number of sprocket teeth than the drive sprocket coupled to the roller cutters of the first set thereby causing the rotary tenderizing knives of the second set to rotate at a faster rate relative to the rotary tenderizing knives of the first set. The meat cutlet is stretched and perforated simultaneously as it advances through the coacting roller cutter sets because of the differential rotation.

A bulk processing meat cutlet tenderizing machine is provided with multiple sets of roller cutters between which a meat cutlet is tenderized. The roller cutters of each set are arranged in parallel pairs with rotary tenderizing knives mounted on each roller cutter. The second set of roller cutters are vertically spaced with respect to the roller cutters of the first set to permit a meat cutlet to be engaged and perforated simultaneously by the rotary knives of both first and second sets as the meat cutlet advances through the roller cutter pairs. The cutlets are inverted automatically after passing through a first array of roller cutters. The cutlets then undergo further perforation and enlargement in successive cutter stations. The direction of feeding movement to the successive cutter stations is at a right angle with respect to the direction of feeding movement in the first cutter station, with the result that each cutlet is tenderized on its opposite faces along lines which are mutually perpendicular, thereby assuring maximum tenderizing effect.
