Abstract
According to an embodiment of the invention, an apparatus includes a decoder configured to decode transmission parameter signaling data from a signal, the signal including the transmission parameter signaling data on a lower level than a level on which service information is included; and a determiner configured to determine from decoded transmission parameter signaling data if the signal carries time-sliced elementary streams and configured to determine from the decoded transmission parameter signaling data whether the signal has a forward error correction framing structure, wherein the apparatus is a receiver and is configured to operate in a network. The apparatus further includes a controller configured to disregard a signal in response to determining that the signal does not carry time-sliced elementary streams.
