The present invention relate to a digital broadcast system, and it is an object
of the invention to record contents quickly in a broadcast system which implements
interactivity by transmitting a set of data repeatedly, wherein a digital broadcast
receiver separates a table corresponding to video images from streams in an arbitrary
order and repeats the processing of memorizing the video image data to be identified
in the order of obtaining the same by means of the table corresponding to the video
images until all of the set of video images have been memorized. This allows for
performing, in a short time, storage process of video image data broadcast for
the purpose of efficient reproduction by a receiver having no storage function.
Additionally, the data is available to viewers at any time after the completion
of storage thereof.
