Abstract: An apparatus and method for managing a preference channel are provided which can reduce a delay time when a channel change is made between preference channels, by storing a preference channel directly selected by a mobile terminal user in a mobile broadcast system. A mobile terminal receives and demultiplexes multiplexed logical channels on which data streams are transmitted from a service provider through a communication network. Preference channels of the demultiplexed logical channels are dynamically allocated to decoding buffers using stored information. A decoding time at which data of the decoding buffers is accessed and decoded is computed using reference information. A decoding operation is performed at the computed decoding time, and decoded channel-by-channel elementary streams are stored in a memory. The decoded channel-by-channel elementary streams stored in the memory are displayed on a screen of the mobile terminal.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and system are provided for controlling a scene structure of a mobile terminal for receiving and displaying data streams in a mobile broadcast system. When logical channels are multiplexed into one physical channel, the multiplexed channels are sequentially decoded and are displayed on an image. A channel circulation scene alternately displays the channels on one image in designated order. In a combination scene structure, a new node is added to a conventional Lightweight Application Scene Representation (LASeR) technology. To compose a scene, fields for time information and scene transition effect are provided. A delay time due to a channel change is reduced. A multi-channel image is effectively provided to address a problem when a user retrieves service content while directly switching a channel. The terminal dynamically composes the multi-channel image using stream source node information from a service provider without an additional mosaic channel.
