<p>The present technology relates to a receiving apparatus and method, transmission apparatus and method and a program that enable the expansion of opportunities to program downloads of AV content. A trigger detection unit detects trigger information that is transmitted together with AV content. An application engine obtains, on the basis of the trigger information, an application program for selecting AV content that is not transmitted in real time and for which downloading can be programmed. A tentative programming recording unit records, as tentative programming, AV content selected by the application program. An actual programming recording unit records, as actual programming, the tentatively programmed AV content, in the case where an identifier for downloadable AV content that is included in download information transmitted periodically with the AV content matches an identifier for the tentatively programmed AV content. The present invention is applicable, for example, to cases where data broadcasts are implemented in such places as the U.S.</p> |
