Personal video recorder and method of transmitting broadcast signal to external multimedia apparatus from the same
First Claim
1. A method of transferring a broadcast signal, comprising the steps of:
- connecting an external multimedia device to a personal video recorder;
setting an encoding parameter corresponding to A/V parameters of the connected external multimedia device;
receiving a broadcast signal via a tuner of the personal video recorder;
separating A/V data into an audio signal and a video signal by demultiplexing the received broadcast signal;
transcoding the separated audio and video signals into transcoded data by the set encoding parameter; and
transferring the transcoded data to the external multimedia device.

Abstract
A personal video recorder and method of transmitting a broadcast signal to an external multimedia apparatus from the same are disclosed, by which various application environments can be provided by establishing a multimedia support environment in transmitting broadcast data or reproducing a broadcast signal by a multimedia device in a manner of interconnecting a PVR to the multimedia device. The present invention includes connecting an external multimedia device to a personal video recorder, setting an encoding option corresponding to A/V parameters of the connected external multimedia device, receiving a broadcast signal via a tuner of the personal video recorder, separating A/V data into an audio signal and a video signal by demultiplexing the received broadcast signal, transcoding the separated audio and video signals into transcoded data by the set encoding parameter and transferring the transcoded data to the external multimedia device.

5. A personal video recorder, which is connected to an external multimedia device to transfer a broadcast signal, the personal video recorder comprising:
-
a control unit setting an encoding parameter corresponding to A/V parameters of the connected external multimedia device;
a tuner receiving the broadcast signal;
a demodulator converting the received broadcast signal to an intermediate frequency;
a demultiplexer demultiplexing to separate the converted signal into an audio signal and a video signal;
a system memory temporarily storing the separated audio and video signals; and
a transcoder transcoding the audio and video signals from the system memory into the transcoded data by the set encoding parameter. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
