Abstract

In a broadcast using packet transmission, zapping-data and program data are packet-transmitted 105 from a transmitting apparatus 106. A receiving apparatus 111 receives 115 and stores 109 the data and zapping-data. Until the program data selected upon program reproduction becomes reproducible, zapping-data is reproduced 108, whereby the viewer can know the information about a program without waiting for a lapse of reproduction wait time after switching a program channel.

Claims

AMENDED CLAIMS
[received by the International Bureau on 22 September 2003 (22.09.03); original claims 1,9 are amended; remaining claims are unchanged (2 pages)]
1. (Amended) A method of browsing information in a broadcast using packet transmission comprising: a step of receiving program data and zapping-data as data for realizing zapping; a step of storing the zapping-data; and a step of reproducing the zapping-data until a layout information in program data selected upon program reproduction is received and at least one of medias reproduced becomes reproducible .
2. A method of browsing information according to claim
1, wherein the zapping-data is at least any one of a part of a program including layout information, a digest, a representative screen, a program title (text), a preview, an announcement and an advertisement.
3. A method of browsing information according to claim
2, wherein information of the zapping-data is multiplexed based on a media kind or information configuring a screen.
4. A method of browsing information according to claim 1, further comprising a step of generating the zapping-data from the program data received.
5. A transmitting apparatus in a broadcast using packet transmission comprising: a program-broadcast managing section for controlling a start and end of a program-broadcast; a data managing section for storing data to be sent; a zapping-data selecting section for generating or selecting zapping-data as data for realizing zapping from the
AMENDED SHEET (ARTICLE IS)
9. (Amended) A receiving apparatus in a broadcast using packet transmission comprising: a transmitting section for receiving packet-transmitted zapping-data as data for realizing zapping and program data; a reception control section for discriminating a kind of information received by the transmitting section; a zapping-data storing section for storing the zapping-data discriminated; a program selecting section for instructing to receive the program data a viewer has selected; a reproduction control section for reproducing zapping-data concerning the program data taken out of the zapping-data storing section until the transmitting section receives a layout information due to the instruction and at least one of medias reproduced becomes reproducible; and a zapping-data restoring section for selecting and taking out the zapping-data instructed for taking out from the reproduction control section.
10. A receiving apparatus according to claim 9, further comprising a zapping-data generating section for generating the zapping-data from received program data.
11. A receiving apparatus in a broadcast using packet transmission comprising: a transmitting section for receiving program data;
