A multi-media system for transferring a single program transport stream and a method therefor are provided. A receiver is for receiving a transport stream. For the receiver to control recording and reproduction performed by a recording/reproducing device, the receiver selects one program to constitute a single program transport stream and transfers the single program transport stream to the recording/reproducing device. Here, a program number is transferred, by correcting program association table (PAT) information of the transport stream. Accordingly, the recording/reproducing device can recognize the program number within the single program transport stream to be recorded. Therefore, the receiver can perform remote control of the recording/reproducing device without the extra transfer of the program number. Also, the receiver provides an on-screen graphic (OSG) to the recording/reproducing device, resulting in an OSG of consistent appearance.
