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: Provided are an apparatus and a method that are capable of performing reliable display control with no caption display interruption of the TTML caption data. Specifically, when a set value of the caption display end time specification attribute of the TTML caption data is the continuous display instruction value, memory storing and display processing of caption data currently displayed are continued even after reproduction end timing of an image file, and switching processing of TTML caption data files is performed. When a set value of the caption display start time specification attribute of the TTML caption data is the continuous display instruction value, whether or not there is a text string, display processing of the text string is continued, is determined, and when there is the text string, the displayed text is continuously displayed. With the processing, it is possible to achieve display control with no caption display interruption of the TTML caption data.
