Hybrid delivery mechanism in a multimedia transmission system

Methods and apparatus are provided for receiving a file in a streaming system. The method includes receiving, by a client device, a file related to at least one segment, the at least one segment being decoded based on the file; and performing, by the client device, a streaming service based on the file. The file is updated for a live service, and the file includes information indicating if the file is to be updated.

Method and apparatus for generating and reproducing adaptive stream based on file format, and recording medium thereof

A method and an apparatus for reproducing video data are provided. The method includes the steps of extracting a coded video data stream and video data attribute information from the stored video file, extracting samples relevant to an expanded time layer from the extracted video data stream on the basis of the location information of the sample which allows for temporal layer access contailed in the video data attribute information, and restoring and reproducing the extracted samples.

Method and apparatus for reproducing video data

A method and apparatus are provided for transmitting service discovery information to a client in a multimedia transmission system of hybrid delivery, providing at least two services via a point to multi point (p-t-m) channel and a point to point (p-t-p) channel. Service discovery information is generated, including a first indication indicating whether a service corresponding to the service discovery information is of hybrid delivery, and is transmitted to the client.

Hybrid delivery mechanism in multimedia transmission system

Methods and apparatus are provided for transmitting a file in a server. A file is generated for an adaptive stream service. The file is transmitted. The file includes range information for indicating a byte range of a segment.

A method and an apparatus for processing a media file for an augmented reality service are provided. The method includes analyzing at least one media file including a marker track and a virtual object track to be used for providing the augmented reality service; generating image data needed for reproducing an image by extracting video data and/or audio data included in the media file; generating virtual object data for displaying a virtual object by extracting virtual object information included in the media file; and synthesizing the image data and the virtual object data based on the marker track to structure a final image and reproducing the final image on a screen.

Method and apparatus for processing media file for augmented reality service

A method and apparatus are provided for transmitting service discovery information in a multimedia transmission system. Service discovery information, including service access information for reception of a service, is generated. The service discovery information is transmitted after being classified into a plurality of levels.

Method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving service discovery information in multimedia transmission system and file structure for the same

A method and apparatus of processing data to support Augmented Reality (AR) are provided. In the method, an image file including at least a scene description stream, an object descriptor stream, and a visual stream including a real-world medium is received, the scene description stream including an AR node that represents information about at least one piece of AR content used to augment the real-world medium, information about an AR locator and an object descriptor Identifier (ID) is acquired from the AR node, the AR locator describing when the at least one piece of AR content appears and how the real-world medium is augmented with the at least one piece of AR content and the object indicator ID identifying an Object Descriptor (OD) that describes the at least one piece of AR content, and at least one elementary stream descriptor.

Method and apparatus of processing data to support augmented reality

A method and apparatus for receiving a broadcast service in a digital broadcasting system. The method includes receiving, by a reception unit, related information relevant to a common broadcast service being provided in common in at least two Internet Protocol (IP) platforms, from one of the at least two IP platforms; determining, by a mobility management block, whether a currently received broadcast service is the common broadcast service, based on the related information; and continuously receiving the common broadcast service from a remaining IP platform, except for the one of the at least two IP platforms, when the currently received broadcast service is the common broadcast service.

Method and apparatus for sending and receiving broadcast service in a digital broadcasting system

Apparatuses and methods for handover or roaming during a file download or streaming. A streaming roaming method in a Convergence of Broadcast and Mobile Services (CBMS) system includes generating a Session Description Protocol (SDP), a fragment, or a notification message indicating streaming roaming or handover information, and transmitting the SDP, the fragment, or the notification message to a terminal.

Apparatus and method for handover/roaming during file downloading/streaming

Disclosed is a DVB-H CBMS system by which a user can continue to view a program being in service even when the transport stream or IP platform changes while the user views the program. In the DVB-H CBMS system, the system transmits service mapping information according to transport streams or IP platforms to the terminal, so that the system can provide a service without interruption to the terminal even when a user of the terminal moves out of a current cell or network into a new cell or network while receiving a service that the user selected.

Method and apparatus for supporting mobility in DVB-H CBMS system

A method and apparatus for sending a broadcast service in a digital broadcasting system. The method includes assigning a same Internet Protocol (IP) address for a common broadcast service when the common broadcast service is provided in at least two IP platforms, each of the at least two IP platforms providing a broadcast service to a terminal; delivering the common broadcast service using the same IP address; and delivering related information relevant to the common broadcast service.

A method and an apparatus for receiving manifest information by a client from a broadcast involved system are provided. The method includes accessing the broadcast involved system, receiving timing information comprising a specific entry point to check the manifest information, and acquiring the manifest information from a broadcasting channel using the timing information.

Manifest mechanism in broadcast involved system

A method and apparatus for supporting mobility in a mobile broadcasting system in which Electronic Service Guide (ESG) discovery is required. The mobility support is classified into three ways according to three different aspects. The first way is to provide roaming information for a local IPDC operator having a roaming partner among local IPDC operators. In the second way, a terminal transmits a query message for requesting transmission of information on a particular local IPDC operator, and receives information on the particular local IPDC operator in response thereto. The third way is to provide the terminal with type information of an ESG; an access type of which is classified according to provision of a roaming service. The roaming information, the information on the particular local IPDC operator and the type information of the ESG, which are provided to the terminal from the mobile broadcasting system, can be provided in an ESG bootstrap level.

Method and apparatus for supporting mobility in a mobile broadcasting system
