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.
