  • Patent number: 8321907
    Abstract: An MPEG decoder decodes a video data packet for standard broadcasting to generate video data for standard broadcasting, and detects a decoding error thereof. A MPEG decodes a video data packet for broadcasting under rainfall to generate video data for broadcasting under rainfall. A synthesizing section generates a composite signal obtained by replacing a decoding error part of the video data for standard broadcasting with a corresponding part of the video data for broadcasting rainfall.

  • Publication number: 20110170687
    Abstract: The content decrypting apparatus 2000 of the present invention stores a chaining value generated during decryption of the last ciphertext block of a chunk in association with a content type and a frame number to an inter-chunk chaining value holding unit 216. When decrypting the first ciphertext block of a chunk, and in case where a chaining value is stored to the inter-chunk chaining value holding unit 216 in association with a content type and a frame number corresponding to the chunk, the content decrypting apparatus decrypts the first ciphertext block of the chunk using the chaining value. Hence, the content decrypting apparatus pertaining to the present invention is capable of correctly decrypting data streams having a data structure in which ciphertext chunks belonging to a first encrypted frame are disposed in between two ciphertext chunks belonging to a second encrypted frame.

  • Publication number: 20070130603
    Abstract: The MPEG decoder 118 decodes a video data packet for standard broadcasting to generate video data for standard broadcasting, and detects a decoding error thereof. The MPEG decoder 120 decodes a video data packet for broadcasting under rainfall to generate video data for broadcasting under rainfall. The synthesizing section 126 generates a composite signal obtained by replacing a decoding error part of the video data for standard broadcasting with a corresponding part of the video data for broadcasting under rainfall.
