PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus for demodulating and decoding satellite, terrestrial and cable transmitted digital TV data. SOLUTION: A digital signal processor selectively demodulates and decodes signals received from multiple types of transmission channels such as satellite, terrestrial and cable transmission channels. A received signal is representative of compressed digital video information such as television picture information, and is encoded in one of a plurality of coding formats (e.g., trellis or punctured codes of selectable code rate). The received signal is also modulated in one of a plurality of modulation formats (e.g., PAM, QAM or PSK). A demodulator selectively demodulates the signal modulated in one of the plurality of modulation formats, and a decoder selectively decodes the demodulated signals coded in one of the plurality of coding formats.
