  • Patent number: 8351757
    Abstract: Even when a communication state between a tuner device and a display device is deteriorated, a television broadcast receiving device enables a user to view broadcast. The television broadcast receiving device of the present invention has a tuner section that receives a digital broadcast signal, selects the digital broadcast signal to decode the digital broadcast signal, generates video data including a video signal and an audio signal, and converts the video data into processed video data suitable for wireless communication, and a display section that receives the processed video data from the tuner section through wireless communication, and displays a video based on the processed video data. The tuner section has a recording/playback section that records and reads the video data in and from a predetermined recording section according to a change in state of the communication with the display section.

  • Publication number: 20080165962
    Abstract: A multistream distributor and a multi-descrambler are provided at low cost, which are capable of displaying a plurality of transport streams corresponding respectively to a plurality of channels on a plurality of receivers or the like. Three first scrambled transport streams received via tuners are time-multiplexed by a multiplexer into one second scrambled transport stream. A multi-descrambler descrambles and encrypts each of the three first scrambled transport streams forming one second scrambled transport stream in correspondence with each of receivers.

  • Publication number: 20070297460
    Abstract: In a process for multiplexing a plurality of transport streams, a transport stream ID and a local time stamp are added to each of the packets that form a transport stream, and in a process for separating a multi-stream obtained by multiplexing the transport streams, the packets forming each transport stream are temporarily stored in a buffer, and at a timing calculated based on the transport stream ID and the local time stamp, the packet interval for the original transport stream is reproduced. In this manner, jitter can be removed.
