Abstract:
An apparatus for processing digital service signals includes a receiving module configured to receive contents having watermarks, where the watermarks are inserted in audio or video frames of the contents, the watermarks carry channel information related to the contents, and content information having URL information for additional data of the contents. An extracting module is configured to extract the watermarks from the audio or video frames, and an obtaining module is configured to obtain the additional data over an IP (Internet Protocol) network using the extracted watermarks.

Abstract:
A method of processing an interactive service and an apparatus thereof are disclosed. The present invention includes generating a trigger, wherein the trigger contains a first identifier and a parameter, wherein the first identifier identifies an application to be launched, wherein the parameter contains a media time stamp and a content identifier, wherein the media time stamp indicates a current point in the playout of a content, wherein the content identifier identifies the content currently being viewed, wherein the trigger is passed into the application after the application is launched, and wherein the application delivers the content identifier to a server in order to identify the content currently being viewed; generating a broadcast signal including the trigger; and transmitting the broadcast signal.
