Digital broadcast receiving apparatus and communication information transmitting method

摘要

A digital broadcast receiving apparatus that can transmit and receive data to and from a bidirectional server in either of a form of communication via a telephone line and a form of communication via the Internet. The digital broadcast receiving apparatus having a network interface for performing data transmission and reception via the Internet and a modem includes reading means for reading an IP address of a bidirectional server for the Internet from a transport stream; and decoding means for detecting a method describing a BASIC procedure and decoding a data processing content related to transmitting and receiving operation; wherein data transmission and reception is performed via the network interface using an IP packet on the basis of the decoded data processing content.
