METHOD OF PROCESSING NON-REAL TIME SERVICE AND BROADCAST RECEIVER

摘要

A method of processing a non-real time service of a broadcast receiver, which receives and processes a service being transmitted in non-real time, and a broadcast receiver are disclosed. Herein, the method of processing a non-real time service of a broadcast receiver includes receiving a signaling information table including additional information on contents configuring a non-real time service and a content identifier for each content, acquiring and storing the additional information on contents and the content identifier for each content from the signaling information table, when a non-real time specific service guide is requested from a real-time specific service guide screen, configuring the non-real time specific service guide based upon the stored additional information and content identifier of the stored contents, thereby displaying a non-real time specific service guide screen, and performing a playback or download scheduling function on the content selected from the non-real time specific service guide screen.

主权项

1. A receiver for processing a non-real time (NRT) service, comprising:
a network interface receiving signaling data including an NRT information element containing information describing NRT contents available for download to storage in the receiver, and data delivery element describing data units configuring an NRT content, a service manager parsing the signaling data, wherein the NRT information element includes a first content identifier identifying the NRT content, wherein the data delivery element includes a second content identifier identifying the NRT content wherein the first content identifier is further used to link the information in the NRT information element to data units described in the data delivery element associated with the NRT content for gathering the data units belonging to the NRT content, and wherein the receiver matches a value of the first content identifier in the NRT information element with a value of the second content identifier of the data units listed in the data delivery element to identify the NRT content to which the data units belong, and a handler receiving the data units belonging to the NRT content identified by the first content identifier based on the signaling data.
