Broadcast receiving device and operating method thereof

A method of processing supplementary content in a digital receiving apparatus, includes connecting to an external device being different from a broadcaster; receiving uncompressed audio/video (A/V) content from the external device being different from the broadcaster; extracting audio watermark from the uncompressed A/V content, wherein the audio watermark includes domain type information, time information and event flag; constructing a first uniform resource locator (URL) based on the audio watermark, transmitting a request to a remote server based on the first URL; receiving a second URL for the supplementary content from the remote server, and presenting the supplementary content based on the second URL.

Method for transmitting broadcast signals and method for receiving broadcast signals

A companion device interoperating with a broadcast reception device for receiving a broadcast signal, can include a communication device configured to connect the companion device with the broadcast reception device, in which the broadcast signal includes emergency alert information and service information for a broadcast service, and the service information includes service identification information for identifying the broadcast service and name information of the broadcast service, and the emergency alert information and the service information are carried in Internet Protocol (IP) packets having a same IP address; and a controller configured to receive the emergency alert information from the broadcast reception device, the emergency alert information including identifier information for the emergency alert information, category information of the emergency alert information, and priority information for the emergency alert information, and the controller receiving information for components of the broadcast service.

Broadcast receiving device, method of operating broadcast receiving device, linking device for linking to broadcast receiving device, and method of operating linking device

A digital broadcast receiver for receiving a broadcast signal, includes a tuner configured to receive the broadcast signal including service data in a broadcast signal and application signaling information, wherein the application signaling information includes a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of an entry page of a broadcaster application for the digital broadcast receiver, a cache configured to store a content for the broadcaster application and a processor configured to launch the broadcaster application based on the application signaling information, wherein the entry page of the broadcaster application is loaded based on the URL, and the URL is used to point to a server.

Broadcast receiver and method for launching broadcaster application based on URL in application signaling information

One embodiment of the present invention provides a method and a device for transmitting and receiving service guide information. The service guide information transmission method, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: generating service guide information including information on broadcast service and content; encoding the generated service guide information; and transmitting the encoded service guide information.

Service guide information transmission method, service guide information reception method, service guide information transmission device, and service guide information reception device

A method of processing supplementary content in a digital receiving apparatus, includes connecting to an external device being different from a broadcaster; receiving uncompressed audio/video (A/V) content from the external device being different from the broadcaster; extracting audio watermark from the uncompressed A/V content, wherein the audio watermark includes domain type information, time information and event flag, further the event flag is used to signal when an event is available, and the event flag is 1-bit; constructing a first uniform resource locator (URL) based on the audio watermark; transmitting a request to a remote server based on the first URL; receiving a second URL for the supplementary content from the remote server; and presenting the supplementary content based on the second URL.

A digital broadcast receiver for processing data of a broadcaster application, includes a tuner configured to receive a broadcast signal including video data for a broadcast program and application signaling information, wherein the application signaling information includes a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of an entry page of the broadcaster application for providing an interactive service; a frequency deinterleaver configured to frequency deinterleave the video data and the application signaling information; and a time deinterleaver configured to perform time deinterleaving differently based on mode information, wherein the time deinterleaver comprises a twisted block deinterleaver, and wherein the twisted block deinterleaver is configured to deinterleave one or more FEC (Forward Error Correction) blocks comprising the video data and the application signaling information based on at least one TI (Time Interleaving) block interleaved by a TI scheme.

A digital broadcast receiver for receiving a broadcast signal, includes a tuner configured to receive the broadcast signal including a table for service, video data for a broadcast program and application signaling information, wherein the table for service includes IP (Internet Protocol) address of a LCT (Layered Coding Transport) channel carrying service signaling information and UDP (User Datagram Protocol) port number of the LCT channel carrying the service signaling information, wherein the application signaling information includes a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of an entry page of a broadcaster application; a network interface configured to receive at least one content; a cache configured to store the at least one content; and a processor configured to launch the broadcaster application after the digital broadcast receiver receives the application signaling information and then forwards the URL to a first module capable of processing HTML5.

A method of transmitting broadcast data by a broadcast receiver that is connected to a companion device. The method includes receiving a broadcast signal including service data and Electronic Service Guide (ESG) information for the service data; time deinterleaving the service data and the ESG information; decoding the service data and the ESG information; and transmitting the ESG information to the companion device. Further, content information is acquired based on the ESG information, the content information representing component information including at least one of a video component element describing a role of a video component, an audio component element describing a role of an audio component, a closed caption component element describing a role of a closed caption component, or an application component element describing a role of an application component, and the content information further representing a capability element for the at least one of the video component or the audio component.

A companion device interoperating with a broadcast reception device for receiving a broadcast service, includes a communication device configured to connect the companion device with the broadcast reception device; and a controller configured to receive emergency alert information from the broadcast reception device, the emergency alert information including identifier information for the emergency alert information, category information of the emergency alert information, and priority information for the emergency alert information, wherein a value of the priority information represents one of 5 levels of priority of the emergency alert information, the 5 levels represents the priority from low priority to high priority, and in response to a change of the priority, the controller receives changed emergency alert information including changed priority information of which a value represents a level of the changed priority.
