CLIENT APPARATUS, SERVER, AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING BROADCAST SERVICE

摘要

An apparatus and method for providing broadcast programs. The method of providing a broadcast program in a client apparatus, includes generating final frame information identifying a frame corresponding to a broadcast watching stop time of a broadcast program that a user has been watching; transmitting the final frame information to a server that provides the broadcast program through the Internet; requesting the broadcast program from the server; receiving the broadcast program starting from a final frame searched for by the server based on the final frame information; and providing the broadcast program to the user. It is possible to provide a broadcast program from the stopped part of the broadcast program at a desired time after a user stops watching the broadcast program, even though the broadcast program is not recorded by the client apparatus.
