A receiver (20) includes a processing unit (22) that processes a received signal including a plurality of frames, a section identification unit (25) that identifies a first section being a bootstrap in each of the frames based on the received signal, and a control unit (26) that operates the processing unit (22) in the first section of the frame and does not operate the processing unit (22) in a second section of the frame different from the first section during a standby state.

Systems and methods are described herein for presenting additional information related to an emergency alert. A media guidance application may detect that a new emergency alert has been received. The media guidance application may then perform a search of various content sources (e.g., program listings, the Internet, etc.) for content related to the emergency alert. The media guidance application may then present the search results in a contextual menu enabling the user to access content of the search results. The media guidance application may also provide more options, such as, recording or pausing media content that the user was in the process of consuming when the emergency alert was generated, and an option to the user not to bring up the contextual menu again if the same emergency alert is repeated.

A switching module transmits channel content to a transport encoder. The switching module receives notification content associated with an emergency action system (EAS) message, and transmits the notification content to the transport encoder in place of the channel content.

Provided is a broadcast receiving device receiving a broadcast service interoperating with a companion device. The broadcast receiving device includes: an IP communication unit configured to establish a pairing session with the companion device; a broadcast communication unit configured to receive an emergency alert message including an emergency alert alerting a disaster situation on the basis of the broadcast service; and a control unit configured to transmit information on the emergency alert message to the companion device.

This technology relates to a receiving apparatus, a transmitting apparatus, and a data processing method for displaying emergency information communicated in an emergency at appropriate positions. The receiving apparatus acquires metadata transmitted by a digital broadcast signal, the metadata including first emergency information required to be announced urgently and display position information indicating whether there is second emergency information embedded in uncompressed video data, the display position information further indicating, if the second emergency information is embedded in the uncompressed video data, the display position of the second emergency information on a screen. The receiving apparatus processes the metadata to determine whether the second emergency information is embedded in the uncompressed video data and, if the second emergency information is embedded in the uncompressed video data, displays the first emergency information at a position different from the display position of the second emergency information on the screen. This technology applies to television receivers, for example.
