Between that video clip and the PDF file, every claim within the Acacia patent(s) is covered except for the end user being able to replay the downloaded clip later and having features such as Fast Forward, Slow-Mo, etc. in their player. However, I think that could be easily surmised from existing applications at the time, if not covered in some other aspect of their work.
Also, that PDF file was published Jan 12 1990, not quite a full year before when the original patent was filed, Jan 7 1991. There ought to be earlier publications that cover all this though (some are referenced in that paper).
