Abstract:
An apparatus for providing multiple screens and a method of dynamically configuring multiple screens are provided. The apparatus for providing multiple screens includes a digital signal processing module which receives video information, audio information, or data information and restores a service based on the video information, the audio information or the data information, a service processing module which generates a plurality of logical screens and an overlay screen for displaying the restored service, and an output module which maps the plurality of logical screens generated by the service processing module to different locations on a display screen and allows the overlay screen to overlay the display screen.
Abstract:
An apparatus for providing multiple screens and a method of dynamically configuring multiple screens are provided. The apparatus for providing multiple screens includes a service processing module producing at least one of logical screens and display screens for displaying a service, and an output module mapping the logical screens to arbitrary locations on the display screens and providing the display screens to a plurality of physical display devices.
Abstract:
An apparatus for providing multiple screens and a method of dynamically configuring the multiple screens are provided. The apparatus for providing multiple screens retrieves the type of the screens in the device and connection relationship therebetween in order to dynamically configure multiple screens that provide a plurality of services on a physical display device. The apparatus for providing multiple screens includes an operation module generating at least one of screens for displaying a received service, and a retrieval module retrieving a screen on which an application included in the service is executed among the screens.
Abstract:
A method of and an apparatus are provided for signaling a transmission code set in data broadcasting. A client using the transmission code set signaling method includes a demultiplexer demultiplexing a packetized elementary stream (PES) packet corresponding to a program selected by a user from the broadcasting stream received by the system interface, an image decoder decoding the demultiplexed PES for images, a sound decoder decoding the demultiplexed PES for sound, and a CPU fetching information about a transmission code set of a character string used in an object carousel message from the demultiplexed message PES and decoding the character string used in the object carousel message based on the fetched information about the transmission code set.

Abstract:
A variable bit rate video (VBR) coding method includes the steps of (a) dividing an entire sequence of moving pictures into N blocks, (b) determining a quantizer scale group having M elements, each element being applied to MPEG I, P, and B pictures, (c) quantizing the N blocks divided in step (a) by the M quantizer scales determined in step (b), (d) producing M.times.N bit rate-distortion pairs as a result of step (c), (e) assigning optimal bits to the N blocks divided in step (a) by applying the BFOS algorithm to the M.times.N bit rate-distortion pairs produced in step (d), and (f) variable bit rate-coding the entire sequence of moving pictures by using the optimal number of bits assigned to each block in step (e). Therefore, the VBR video coding method can minimize distortion resulting from coding by variably assigning a given total number of bits to each block of an entire sequence of moving pictures, and allocation of more bits to a very significant portion of a moving picture leads to a better, more uniform picture quality with a lower average bit rate than in constant bit rate coding.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for providing contents-sharing services are provided. The method for providing contents-sharing services includes: receiving a contents-sharing request message for a contents sharer from a first contents reproducing apparatus of a contents sharing requester; transmitting a contents-sharing notify message generated using the received contents-sharing request message to a second contents reproducing apparatus of the contents sharer; and transmitting the received contents-sharing request message to a streaming server, wherein the transmitted contents-sharing request message requests the streaming server to transmit contents to the second contents reproducing apparatus of the contents sharer.
Abstract:
An apparatus for providing multiple screens and a method of dynamically configuring multiple screens are provided. The apparatus for providing multiple screens includes a digital signal processing module which receives predetermined information and restores a service based on the predetermined information, a service processing module which displays one or more logical screens associated with the service, and an output module which arranges the logical screens provided by the service processing module at different locations on a display screen.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for providing multiple screens is disclosed. The apparatus includes a user/application interface module receiving a PiP service providing mode, and an output module displaying a video component of a service on a main screen if the PiP service providing mode is a first mode and displaying a background video or the video component of the service on a PiP screen if the PiP service providing mode in a second mode.
