APPARATUS FOR SUPPLYING AN ENCODED DATA SIGNAL AND METHOD FOR ENCODING A DATA SIGNAL

摘要

An apparatus for supplying an encoded data signal comprises a detector for detecting information on an internal receiver for receiving the encoded data signal, a selector for selecting a coding scheme to be used for encoding the data signal the selector being operative to access a data base having entries for different internal receivers, an entry having one or more properties of a coding scheme customized for the receiver associated with the entry and an encoder for encoding the data signal using a coding scheme having the selective property or a destination information provider for providing destination information so that the encoded data signal is stored at the right storage location in an intended receiver.
