An apparatus for transmitting information via a network, and a method therefor. The information transmission apparatus includes a first device having a transport format converter for receiving user interface data in put via a user interface, the user interface for commanding and controlling the first device, and for converting information into a transport format for transmission, a second device having a display unit, the display unit for displaying the user interface or commanding and controlling the first device, and a physical layer for linkig the first and second devices for communications. The IEEE 1394 interface is adopted as the physical layer, so that the second device can control the operation of a digital versatile disc (DVD) player as the first device, and interfacing between devices using the MPEG-2 transport stream becomes easier.
