Packet filtering
First Claim
1. A method of filtering a packet data stream as transmitted in an digital audiovisual transmission system and received by a receiver/decoder characterised in that transport packet data is filtered at a first stage by a first digital filter according to the characteristics of the transport packet header, selected filtered data being passed directly to a memory element within the receiver/decoder.

Abstract
A method of filtering a packet data stream as transmitted in a digital audiovisual transmission system characterized in that transport packet data is filtered at a first stage by a digital filter (42) according to the characteristics of the transport packet header, selected filtered data being then passed directly to a memory element (44) within the receiver/decoder. In a second aspect, the method comprises filtering a packet data stream characterized in that transport packet data is filtered at a first stage by a first digital filter (42) according to the characteristics of the transport packet header, selected filtered data from the payload corresponding to a continuous flux of data then being passed to a second digital filter (45) for a second stage of filtering.
