A reception apparatus includes a demodulation circuit configured to demodulate packets obtained with respect to each of multiple PLPs included in a broadcast signal; and a processing circuit configured to process the packets demodulated by the demodulation circuit. The demodulation circuit and the processing circuit are connected with each other via a single interface or interfaces fewer than the number of the PLPs. The demodulation circuit adds identification information to a specific packet among the packets obtained with respect to each of the PLP, the identification information identifying the PLP to which each of the packets belongs. The processing circuit identifies the PLP to which belongs each of the packets input from the demodulation circuit via the single interface or the interfaces fewer than the number of the PLPs, based on the identification information obtained from the specific packet.

A method and apparatus control receiving media data in a transmission system. A method of operating a receiving entity in the transmission system includes receiving packets for media data and information about a fixed delay associated with the media data. The method also includes identifying a requirement configured to guarantee that the packets for the media data are delivered to an upper layer of the receiving entity after the fixed delay, from the information about the fixed delay. The method further includes identifying a buffer size requirement for the receiving entity estimated based on the fixed delay and bitrate information associated with the media data; and delivering the packets to the upper layer of the receiving entity.

Wireless transport of multiple service versions of a transport framework. First and second information may be processed for transmission, respectively, according to first and second service versions of a transport framework. The first and second information may be encoded using a first type of error correction coding; after processing, the processed first information may include error correction coding according to the first type of error correction coding, while the processed second information may remain uncoded according to the first type of error correction coding. Control information may be generated indicating that the second information remains uncoded according to the first type of error correction coding, which may signal to receivers that the second information is processed according to the second service version of the transport framework. Packets including the processed first information, the processed second information, and the control information may be generated and transmitted in a wireless manner.

The present technology includes a reception apparatus, including reception circuitry and processing circuitry. The reception circuitry is configured to receive a broadcast wave of digital broadcasting using an IP (Internet Protocol) transmission system. The processing circuitry is configured to perform filtering processing on a packet by using filtering information provided in a header of the packet. The packet is transmitted via the broadcast wave and carries low layer signaling (LLS) information in a payload of the packet.

A transmission method includes generating one or more frames for content transfer using IP (Internet Protocol) packets, and transmitting the one or more generated frames by broadcast. Each of the one or more frames contains a plurality of second transfer units, each of the plurality of second transfer units contains one or more first transfer units, and each of the one or more first transfer units contains at least one of the IP packets. An object IP packet of the IP packets which is stored in a first transfer unit positioned at a head in the one or more frames contains reference clock information that indicates time for reproduction of the content in data structure different from data structure of an MMT (MPEG Media Transport) packet, and header compression processing on the object IP packet is omitted.

The present technology relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, and a program that enable the content transmitted by using MMT to be sent to an external device via a network. An information processing device according to one aspect of the present technology includes: a content acquisition unit that acquires content transmitted by using MMT; and an extraction unit that extracts information from transmission data based on MMT, the information being to be sent, as property information regarding the content, to an external device to which the content is to be sent via a network. The present technology can be applied to a receiver, such as an STB, that receives the content transmitted by using MMT and uploads the content to an external device via a network.

A video distribution apparatus includes a holding unit configured to hold a captured video image in a predetermined unit, a reception unit configured to receive a request regarding a segment length which is transmitted from an external reception apparatus, a generation unit configured to generate from the predetermined unit held by the holding unit a segment of the video image of the segment length corresponding to the request received by the reception unit, and a distribution unit configured to distribute to the reception apparatus the segment generated by the generation unit.
