Abstract: An apparatus and method for backing up broadcast files are provided. The apparatus includes a received file information analysis unit which analyzes package information included in a metadata file received from the digital broadcast apparatus and extracts storage location information and/or file name information regarding a broadcast file corresponding to the metadata file from the package information; a file request unit which transmits a message to the digital broadcast apparatus requesting the broadcast data file obtained by the received file information analysis unit; and a storage unit which receives the broadcast data file from the digital broadcast apparatus and stores the broadcast data file together with the metadata file in response to the message. Accordingly, it is possible to back up broadcast data files on a storage medium with a large storage capacity by referencing respective corresponding metadata files that are packaged together with the broadcast data files.

The method includes: extracting time information from each of the respective input broadcast streams; setting the time information, extracted from an input broadcast stream that has been set in advance as a reference broadcast stream, as reference time information; and calculating time information for each of the respective input broadcast streams by comparing the time information of each of the respective input broadcast streams with the reference time information. Accordingly, it is possible to minimize various errors caused by errors among time information extracted from the respective broadcast streams when executing a time-dependent application program, such as a time recording program.

Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for setting the time of a real-time clock included in a digital broadcast receiver. Since the digital broadcast receiver sets the time of the real-time clock included therein, based on time information contained in a received transport stream, it is possible to synchronize the time of the real-time clock with a reference time based on the time information contained in broadcast data transmitted by a broadcast transmitter. Accordingly, it is possible to minimize time-related errors during the execution of a time-dependent application program such as a scheduled-recording program.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving a partial font file are provided. A partial font file transmitter included in the partial font file transceiving apparatus includes a storage unit for storing at least one font file for rendering characters, and a partial font file producing unit for extracting character information from received broadcasting application contents and transforming the font file stored in the storage unit on the basis of the extracted character information into a partial font file. Accordingly, a partial font file corresponding to the character information included in the broadcasting application contents is produced and used in data broadcasting environment, so that relatively rapid data transmission is possible and the usability of a bandwidth increases.
