Provided are a device and a method capable of efficiently performing a synthesis process of broadcast reception data and network reception data. Broadcast reception data received by a receiving device via a communication unit is set as a media source object corresponding to a processing object of an application executed by the receiving device under an application programming interface (API). The application executes a synthesis process of the broadcast reception data and network reception data received via a network as processing for the media source object. The application obtains a time offset corresponding to a time difference between an application time axis and a broadcast time axis on the basis of an API application process to execute a high-accuracy and low-delay data synthesis process.
A receiving device comprising a data processing unit that discloses a buffering process for reception data received by the receiving device as a media source object corresponding to a processing object of media reproduction by an application executed by the receiving device.
A transmitting device comprising a communication unit that transmits an application used by a receiving device, wherein the application executes a synthesis process of reception data received by the receiving device and application reception data received by the application on the basis of a media source object that discloses a buffering process for the reception data.
A data processing method performed by a receiving device, wherein a data processing unit of the receiving device sets reception data as a media source object corresponding to a processing object of media reproduction by an application executed by the receiving device.
A data processing method executed by a transmitting device, wherein
