The digital broadcast receiver 1 comprises: a signal input unit 10 for receiving a received broadcast wave; a demodulation unit 11 for demodulating the broadcast wave; an external module 12; an external module I/F (Interface) 13 for connecting the receiver 1 to the external module 12; a decoding unit 14 for extracting necessary information containing a target content from the received signal; an output unit 15 for outputting actual video/audio; a control unit 16 for controlling the entire receiver 1; and a user I/F 17 for transmitting and receiving information to/from a user. Further, there are provided: a packet processing unit 101 that is located between the demodulation unit 11 and the external module I/F 13, that monitors all the packets contained in a TS, and that performs a predetermined processing on packets matched with a predetermined condition; and a TS selector 102 that is located between the external module I/F 13 and a bus line BL and that selects and outputs one designated TS of the two TSs. In this way, non-encrypted contents can be protected with ease when the TS outputted to the external module is accessed in an unauthorized way. |
