Abstract:
In order to control the quantity of encoding in accordance with the processing condition of a terminal at the time of simultaneously decoding and synthesizing a plurality of videos and audios, a picture and sound decoding device is provided with a reception managing section (11) which receives information, a separating section (12) which analyzes and separates received information, a priority determining section (14) which determines the processing priority of the pictures separated by the separating section (12), a picture expanding section (18) which expands the pictures in accordance with the priority determined by the determining section (14), a picture synthesizing section (19) which performs picture synthesization based on the expanded pictures, a synthesized result storing section (22) which stores the synthesized pictures, a reproducing time managing section (23) which manages the starting time of reproduction, and an output section (24) which outputs synthesis results in accordance with the information from the managing section (23).
Abstract:
The present invention receives list content providing location conditions in a list organized by location conditions in which a reference destination of location-dependent content, being content assigned correspondence to geographical location information, is compiled for each location condition, sent from a content communication server; receives the sent location information; generates area-specific list content comprising information on location-dependent content corresponding to location information, by extracting a list organized by location conditions, in which location conditions matching location information are provided, from the list content; and outputs the area-specific list content.
Abstract:
There are provided a transmitting section 308 for receiving program information representative of an outline and receiving condition of a receivable program and further receiving a program on the basis of the program information, and a zone-change determining section 307 for detecting a change of the program information. The program selecting section 309 causes the transmitting section 308 to suspend program reception and to switch a communication port, on the basis of a determination of a change of program distribution area by the zone-change determining section 307. Due to this, the transmitting section 308 is allowed to continuously receive the program so far received. This, in the case a program is provided at a communication port different based on each region, makes it possible to correctly receive a program even if moving traversing a region.
Abstract:
The present invention generates watermark from ID information that uniquely identifies a program distribution destination, inserts the generated watermark in a program, and prevents the program from operating correctly if the watermark is tampered with, and also inserts the same watermark verification code in a program regardless of the distribution destination. By this means, it is possible to prevent detection of watermark verification code constituting a watermark by means of collusion attack.

The present invention receives list content providing location conditions in a list organized by location conditions in which a reference destination of location-dependent content, being content assigned correspondence to geographical location information, is compiled for each location condition, sent from a content communication server; receives the sent location information; generates area-specific list content comprising information on location-dependent content corresponding to location information, by extracting a list organized by location conditions, in which location conditions matching location information are provided, from the list content; and outputs the area-specific list content.
Abstract:
In the present invention, content is comprised of a plurality of items of data (1101, 1102, 1103, 1104), and a transmission cycle and others of data composing the content are varied corresponding to the importance and/or necessity and purpose of the data. In this way, for example, it is possible to set a shorter transmission cycle on high-necessity data than the transmission cycle of the low-necessity data, and to set a shorter transmission cycle on information such as summary information requiring fast viewing than the transmission cycle of detailed information.

Abstract:
Provided is a content classifying section 203 for classifying and bundling to-be-transmitted contents on the basis of any piece of information of media kind, IP address, port number and session identifier. A packet header compressing section 204 carries out header compression on the transmission packet. Due to this, because contents can be packet-transferred with efficiency and excellent error resistance by the use of a communication and broadcast network, it is possible to realize, even on the Internet for broadcast in a broadcast form, a quality broadcast free of image or sound discontinuity as the terrestrial-wave TV broadcast.
