Methods and systems are employed for selectively controlling the presentation of broadcast content item in which a unique set of broadcast content items are presented based on the selection of a content type and a selection of a geography for each content type to control the manner in which broadcast content types are recorded and/or presented for the vehicle. In some embodiments, methods and systems are employed for providing relevant information to a vehicle based on receiving multiple broadcast streams, and separating the broadcast content items into segments based on a variety of content types along a predicted path of the vehicle.

The present technique relates to a reception device, a reception method, a transmission device, and a transmission method, capable of flexibly supporting various operation modes. A service package unit processes, on a per-service basis, using an IP address included in each of packets, a particular service and a shared service related to the particular service, among a plurality of services transmitted via a broadcast wave of digital broadcasting using an IP transmission scheme. Accordingly, it is possible to flexibly support various operation modes in the digital broadcasting using the IP transmission scheme. It would be possible, for example, to apply the present technique to a television receiver.

The present technology relates to a reception apparatus, a reception method, a transmission apparatus, and a transmission method permitting provision of an emergency warning service more suited to actual operation. Provided is a reception apparatus including a reception section and a demodulation section. The reception section receives a physical layer frame transported as a broadcast signal on the basis of monitoring information that is included in upper layer signalling, signalling in a layer higher than a physical layer, and that is used to monitor a specific service. The demodulation section demodulates physical layer signalling acquired from the physical layer frame and monitors whether emergency warning information has been transported on the basis of emergency warning notice information acquired as a result of the demodulation. In the case where the emergency warning notice information indicates that the emergency warning information has been transported, the reception apparatus starts up automatically. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a transport system for transporting a physical layer frame compliant with the DVB-T2 standard.

A receiving device including a first electronic component and a second electronic component. The first electronic component includes: an analog audio demodulator that demodulates a received signal including a digital broadcast wave and an analog broadcast wave to output an analog audio, the analog broadcast wave being broadcast later by a preset first delay time than the digital broadcast wave; and a transmitter that transmits a communication signal including the analog audio and the received signal to the second electronic component. The second electronic component includes: a receiver that receives the communication signal from the transmitter; a digital audio demodulator that demodulates the received signal included in the communication signal to output a digital audio; and a selector that selects at least one of the digital audio and the analog audio as an output sound signal.
