Abstract:
1. A data transmission method for transmitting a serial digital transfer interface transmission packet in which an interval of each line of a video frame comprises an end synchronizing code area into which an end synchronizing code is inserted, an ancillary data area into which ancillary data is inserted, a start synchronizing code area into which a start synchronizing code is inserted and a payload area into which data containing video data and/or audio data is inserted, said data transmission method comprising the steps of: a first step of generating said transmission packet by inserting reference frame sequence data into said payload area, said reference frame sequence data inserted into a header area of said payload area corresponding to an audio data block area into which said audio data is inserted, wherein said reference frame sequence data is used to manage and adjust the output timing of said audio data so that continuity can be maintained in said audio data even when rapid switching among programs is occurring; and a second step of transmitting said transmission packet into which said reference frame sequence data was inserted at said first step in the form of serial data.
