Abstract
A method and apparatus for transmitting/receiving multimedia data are disclosed. The method for transmitting/receiving multimedia data includes the steps of generating a High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)-type data of 4-bits, encoding the 4-bits HDMI-type data into 10-bits TERC4 (Transition-Minimized Differential Signaling Error Reduction Coding-4) encoded values, converting the 10-bits TERC4 encoded values into 8-bits DVI (Digital Video Interface)-type data, transmitting the 8-bits DVI-type data, receiving the 8-bits DVI-type data, converting the received 8-bits DVI-type data into 10-bits TERC4 encoded values, decoding the 10-bits TERC4 encoded values into 4-bits HDMI-type data, and receiving the decoded HDMI-type data.
Claims15
An apparatus for transmitting multimedia data, comprising:
