The present invention relates to a data structure, an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, a transmitting apparatus, a transmitting method, a multiplexing apparatus, a multiplexing method, and a program that ensure a receiving side to decode hierarchically coded audio streams each including a base stream and an extension stream. A TS packetizing section 537 packetizes each of base and extension audio streams into TS packets. A control section 535 controls TS packet transmitting timing. At this time, the control section 535 control the TS packet transmitting timing with timing that an elementary buffer of a virtual receiver is prevented from overflowing and underflowing. The present invention is applicable to a multiplexing apparatus that multiplexes TS packets. |
