- 6. Emitter device (51) for broadcasting announcements in a transmission system compatible with ATVEF transmissions, characterized in that it comprises means for transmitting ATVEF announcements on a first predefined IP multicast address, ATVEF trigger and/or content data on a first range of IP multicast addresses, binary data announcements on a second predefined IP multicast address different from the first predefined address and binary data on a second range of IP multicast addresses, wherein the first and second address ranges are exclusive of each other.
- 8. Receiver (52i) in an ATVEF compatible transmission system, characterized in that it comprises a memory for storing a first predefined IP multicast address for receiving ATVEF announcements, and a second predefined IP multicast address for receiving announcements relating to the transmission of binary data, where the first and second addresses are distinct.
