Abstract:
1. A content receiver for receiving and reproducing a content formed of a stream of super capsules, each super capsule including at least a capsule count and one or more extended transport packets sent from a transmitter, the content receiver comprising: a capsule processor for detecting a discontinuity in the capsule count associated with the stream of super capsules and for determining a discontinuity direction of the capsule count such that the capsule processor outputs a changed stream of super capsules for storage in accordance with the determined discontinuity direction; storage means for storing the content from the capsule processor; system clock reproducing means for reproducing a system clock when encoding the transport packets; a first counter for counting the system clock output from the system clock reproducing means; and reproducing means for reproducing the content stored in the storage means, wherein when each of the transport packets forming the content to be received is an extended transport packet to which reproduction time instructing information counting the system clock for encoding the transport packets is added, the reproducing means reproduces each of the extended transport packets stored at a timing that a count of the first counter and the reproduction time instructing information match after a predetermined offset.
