Abstract: Signaling data update information is stored into and transmitted together with an event notification message to a reception apparatus such that a reliable signaling data update process by the reception apparatus can be executed. A transmission apparatus stores signaling data update information into an event notification message and transmits the event notification message to the reception apparatus. When event data stored in the event notification is signaling data update information, the reception apparatus outputs the event data to a signaling data processing unit. The signaling data processing unit executes a signaling data update process based on the signaling data update information. The event notification data is stored in a segment that is data for transmission of an AV content, and the reception apparatus can acquire the signaling data update information from the segment and perform the signaling data update process.

Abstract: There is provided an arrangement which is capable of reliably generating and transmitting viewing information with respect to contents received via a communication route other than terrestrial broadcasting waves. Contents in which a contents ID applicable to the generation of viewing information and viewing information-compatible data such as viewing information destination information or the like are recorded in an electronic watermark (WaterMark) or a sound data file are sent from a transmitting apparatus to a receiving apparatus. The receiving apparatus acquires the contents ID and the viewing information destination information, etc. from the electronic watermark (WM) or the sound data file, generates viewing information using the acquired data, and sends the generated viewing information to a designated address.
