Abstract
A receiving device according to the present invention includes a receiving portion that acquires main program data and CM data via a communications network and a control portion that acquires a CM display time included in the main program data, displays the main program data during a time period other than the CM display time and displays the CM data during the CM display time. When one of a timing at which a power source is switched on and a timing at which a channel is changed coincides with the CM display time, the control portion does not display the CM data and displays the main program data during the CM display time.
Claims13
A receiving device comprising:
- a receiving portion that acquires main program data and CM data via a communications network;
- and
- a control portion that acquires a CM display time included in the main program data, displays the main program data during a time period other than the CM display time and displays the CM data during the CM display time,
- wherein
- when one of a timing at which a power source is switched on and a timing at which a channel is changed coincides with the CM display time, the control portion does not display the CM data and displays the main program data during the CM display time.
A communications system comprising:
- a server that transmits main program data and CM data to a receiving device via a communications network;
- and
- a receiving device that includes
- a control portion that acquires a CM display time included in the main program data, displays the main program data during a time period other than the CM display time and displays the CM data during the CM display time, wherein
- when one of a timing at which a power source is switched on and a timing at which a channel is changed coincides with the CM display time, the control portion does not display the CM data and displays the main program data during the CM display time.
A receiving device control method, comprising the steps of:
- acquiring main program data and CM data via a communications network;
- acquiring a CM display time that is included in the main program data and displaying the main program data in a time period other than the CM display time;
- displaying the CM data during the CM display time;
- and
- displaying the main program data during the CM display time instead of displaying the CM data, when one of a timing at which a power source is switched on and a timing at which a channel is changed coincides with the CM display time.
A program that comprises instructions that command a computer to function as:
- a device that acquires main program data and CM data via a communications network;
- a device that acquires a CM display time that is included in the main program data and displays the main program data during a time period other than the CM display time;
- a device that displays the CM data during the CM display time;
- and
- a device that, when one of a timing at which a power source is switched on and a timing at which a channel is changed coincides with the CM display time, does not display the CM data and displays the main program data during the CM display time.
