Receiver for receiving mulliplexed broadcast programmes, comprising audio data and supplementary broadcast data

摘要

A DAB radio (10) receives audio data, service label data as string data, and data for judging abridgement of each character of the service data. Each service label can be displayed properly on a display unit (32). An abridged representation judging unit (50) judges whether each service label is displayed in an abridged representation or in a full representation, in accordance with the conditions of a maximum display size of the display unit, a user selection of representations, or the like. If it is judged that the service label is displayed in the abridged representation, a representation control unit 52 forms a service label in the abridged representation in accordance with abridgement judging data to thereby display an abridged service label on the display unit (32).
