Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for providing information used for generating and consuming multimedia content in a broadcast system supporting a multimedia service based on an Internet protocol are provided. The method includes composing a message type field containing information indicating on a type of control information contained in the control message, composing a length field containing information on the length of the control message, composing optional fields having different values according to the type of the control information, and composing a payload field containing content of the control information.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving content is provided. A method for transmitting content in a transmitter includes generating a file with one or more packages including at least one asset, and transmitting the generated file to a terminal.
Abstract:
A method of delivering media data in a hybrid network capable of providing broadcasting and internet communication together is provided. The method includes generating a Media Processing Unit (MPU) to process media data, and delivering the generated MPU, wherein the MPU includes an MPEG Media Transport (MMT) Processing Unit (MMPU) box including information on the MPU, a Media Data box (MDAT) including one or more media data fragments which are generated from the media data, and an MMFU box including information on each media data fragment.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting scene composition information from an apparatus therefor in a multimedia communication system is provided. The method includes generating scene composition information comprising media attributes information and temporal information, and transmitting the scene composition information, wherein the media attributes information and temporal information is separated into different formats.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting complex multimedia data is provided. The method includes selecting one of a data headers composed of basic transmission units determined according to an amount of multimedia included in the complex multimedia data, generating a basic transmission unit of the complex multimedia data according to the selected data header, packetizing the complex multimedia data in the basic transmission unit; and transmitting the packetized complex multimedia data to a receiver.
Abstract:
An encoding apparatus and a method of encoding a source block including different types of data payloads are provided. The method includes dividing the source block into a predetermined number M of sub blocks, generating a predetermined number P1 of base parity payloads that correspond to each of the predetermined number M of sub blocks by performing first Forward Error Correction (FEC) encoding on each of the predetermined number M of sub blocks, generating a predetermined number P2 of extended parity payloads that correspond to the source block by performing second FEC encoding on a particular type of data payloads among data payloads that make up the source block, and configuring a source coded block based on a predetermined number N of sub coded blocks including the predetermined number M of sub blocks and the predetermined number P1 of base parity payloads generated.
Abstract:
A method for sending media information by a first terminal in a multimedia communication system is provided. The method includes generating scene configuration information that includes information regarding at least one medium of multiple media, and sending the scene configuration information to a second terminal, wherein the information regarding the at least one medium includes at least one of information indicating whether to allow reproduction of the at least one medium in the second terminal, resource information used to reproduce the at least one medium, position information used to reproduce the at least one medium on a screen, and reproduction time information for the at least one medium.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus are provided for transmitting adaptive streaming mechanism-based content. Representations, which include content components, are combined into a group. At least two of the group, a representation, and a content component type are combined into a subset. The subset is transmitted.
Abstract:
A method for playing content included in a media file in a playback apparatus is provided. The method includes obtaining file status indication information indicating a status of the media file from the media file, determining whether a Content Authentication Code (CAC) for playback of the content is included in the media file, if the file status indication information indicates that the content included in the media file is self-encoded content, and playing the content, if the CAC is not included in the media file. The self-encoded content is content that can be played without the CAC.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting signaling information in a digital broadcasting system is provided. The method includes generating the signaling information for reception of a broadcast service, and transmitting the signaling information using at least one of a first transmission scheme and a second transmission scheme, which are different from each other in access time to a broadcast channel.
