Television receiver and additional information transmitting method
First Claim
1. A television receiver receiving a digitally coded compressed television signal, comprising:
- digital television signal analysis means for analyzing the digitally coded compressed television signal, separating and extracting additional information from the digitally coded compressed television signal, and outputting the additional information as an additional information code;
additional information recording means for recording the additional information code;
additional information writing switch means for passing an additional information code corresponding to a previously input key word and blocking the additional information code that is output from the digital television signal analyzing means toward the additional information recording means, in response to a control signal;
conversion means for converting the additional information code output from the digital television signal analyzing means or the additional information code reproduced from the additional information recording means into a character or an image;
digital television signal decoding means for decoding the digitally coded compressed television signal and output a video signal; and
signal synthesizing means for synthesizing the video signal output from the decoding means and the additional information that has been converted into a character or an image by the conversion means, and outputting the synthesized signal as a monitor output signal.

Abstract
A television receiver receiving an analog video signal, comprises additional information detecting means for separating and extracting an additional information code from the analog video signal, and outputting the additional information code; additional information recording means for recording the additional information code output from the additional information detecting means; additional information writing switch means for passing or blocking the additional information code that is output from the additional information detecting means toward the additional information recording means, in response to a control signal; conversion means for converting the additional information code output from the additional information detecting means or the additional information code reproduced from the additional information recording means into a character or an image; and signal synthesizing means for synthesizing the analog video signal and the additional information that has been converted into a character or an image by the conversion means, and outputting the synthesized signal as a monitor output signal.

3. An additional information transmitting method for transmitting a digitally coded television signal in which a program or commercial segment plus additional information relating to the segment are multiplexed, wherein the additional information to be transmitted is written in a user data region which is specified by the MPEG 2 standard of ISO/IFC 13818-2 (1996):
- Information Technology-Generic Coding of moving pictures and associated audio-Part 2;
Video of the digitally coded television signal when the additional information is transmitted, wherein transmitted as the additional information are a code showing an object that provides information, and one of a character information code and an image information code which shows information of the object.
- Information Technology-Generic Coding of moving pictures and associated audio-Part 2;
-
4. An additional information transmitting and receiving method for transmitting and receiving a digitally coded television signal in which a programor commercial segment plus additional information relating to the segment are multiplexed;
-
wherein the additional information to be transmitted is written in a user data region which is specified by the MPEG 2 standard of ISO/IFC 13818-2 (1996);
Information Technology-Generic Coding of moving pictures and associated audio-Part 2;
Video of the digitally coded television signal when the additional information is transmitted; and
on the receiver'"'"'s side, the digitally coded television signal including the additional information is decoded to separate the additional information from an ordinary video signal, and the additional information and the video signal are reproduced, wherein transmitted as the additional information are a code showing an object that provides information, and one of a character information code and an image information code, which shows information of the object; and
on the receiver'"'"'s side, the digitally coded television signal including the additional information is decoded to extract, as the additional information, the code showing an object that provides information and the character information code or the image information code, and to extract an ordinary video signal, and the additional information and the video signal are produced.
