Abstract: When a transport stream is transmitted between each unit connected through an interface, if any data which is not permitted to be transmitted on a partial transport stream is transmitted, information of this section is transmitted as a private section or a user private. As a result, information of a section of an EIT can be transmitted from for example a digital satellite broadcast tuner to a personal computer and an original program schedule list can be created on the personal computer.

Abstract: There is provided a digital broadcast receiver that can readily cope with a change in a time lag between simultaneous broadcasts and opening of a new broadcast station and that enables smooth switching between the simultaneous broadcasts without addition of devices entailing performance of enormous amounts of processing. A characteristic showing that a coding rate increases when a large difference arises between a current frame and a preceding frame of a video signal is utilized for MPEG2 and MPEG4-AVC standards employed as schemes for coding a video signal in a ground digital broadcast. A per-frame coding rate of first broadcast coded video data and a per-frame coding rate of second broadcast coded video data are ascertained. A lag between an output time of the first broadcast and an output time of the second broadcast is detected from time shifts in the thus-ascertained coding rates and a lag between internal clock signals. The output time of the first broadcast video frame and the output time of the first broadcast audio frame are delayed by an amount corresponding to the output time lag. Either the first broadcast or the second broadcast is selected according to predetermined conditions, and the thus-selected broadcast is displayed on a display.

Abstract: In certain embodiments, a selective encryption encoder has a packet identifier that identifies packets of a specified packet type. The specified packet type includes packets carrying data representing a video slice wherein the video slice contains a larger amount of data than a threshold amount of data. A packet duplicator duplicates the identified packets to produce first and second sets of the identified packets. Packets are sent and received to and from a primary encryption encoder to encrypt the first set of identified packets under a first encryption method. A secondary encrypter encrypts the second set of identified packets under a second encryption method. This abstract should not be considered limiting since embodiments consistent with the present invention may involve more, different or fewer elements.
