Information processing device

1 . An information processing device, comprising:

two or more tuners;

a counter for reproduction and a counter for recording, provided for managing time for a received side; and

a synchronization control section to control a reproducing clock and a recording clock for reproducing and recording received data received via the tuners respectively, so as to synchronize with a transmission side based on time information added to the received packet and a count value of the counter for reproduction or the counter for recording.

2 . The information processing device according to claim 1 , comprising, for each of the tuner, a stream controller comprising a register for reproduction and a register for recording to store count values of the clock for reproduction and the clock for recording as a first count value and a second count value respectively, wherein

when count values that are output by the counter for reproduction and the counter for recording are a third count value and a fourth count value respectively, the synchronization control section adjusts the delay of the third and fourth count values using the first and second count values respectively, and controls the reproducing clock and the recording clock based on the delay-adjusted third and fourth count values and the time information.

3 . The information processing device according to claim 2 , wherein when a received packet to which the time information is added is first received, a delay of this time information is adjusted using the first and second count values counted at the time when the received packet has arrived, and the initial values of the counter for reproduction and the counter for recording are set based on this delay-adjusted time information.

4 . The information processing device according to claim 1 , comprising, for each of the tuners, a stream controller having a register for storing a count value of the clock for reproduction or a count value of the clock for recording as a fifth count value, wherein

the stream controller stamps the fifth count value stored in the register in a received packet as a time stamp, and

the synchronization control section adjusts the delay of the third and fourth count values by the time stamp using a third and a fourth count values respectively, where the third and fourth count values are count values which are output by the counter for reproduction and the counter for recording respectively, and controls the reproducing clock and the recording clock based on the delay-adjusted third and fourth count values and the time information.

5 . The information processing device according to claim 4 , wherein when a received packet to which the time information is added is first received, the delay of this time information is adjusted using the fifth count value counted at the time when the received packet has arrived, and the initial values of the counter for reproduction and the counter for recording are set based on this delay-adjusted time information.

6 . An information processing device, comprising:

two or more tuners;

a first counter;

a second counter; and

a synchronization control section to control a first clock for playing or recording received data received via the tuner, based on time information included in the received packet and a first count value output from the first counter, and to control a second clock for playing or recording received data received via the tuner, based on the time information and a second count value output from the second counter.

7 . The information processing device according to claim 6 , wherein

the synchronization control section controls the first clock based on the time information and a third count value obtained by adjusting the delay by using a value output from the first counter, and controls the second clock based on the time information and a fourth count value obtained by adjustment of the delay by using a value output from the second counter.

8 . The information processing device according to claim 7 , wherein when a received packet to which the time information is included is received for the first time, the synchronization control section adjusts the delay of this time information by using the first count value and the second count value at the time of the arrival of the received packet, and sets the initial value to the first counter and the second counter based on the delay-adjusted time information.

9 . The information processing device according to claim 6 , comprising, for each of the tuners, a stream controller comprising a register for storing the count value of either the first clock or the second clock as a fifth count value, wherein

the stream controller stamps the fifth count value stored in the register in a received packet as a time stamp, and

the synchronization control section controls the first clock based on the time information and a third count value output from the first counter obtained by adjustment of the delay by using the time stamp, and controls the second clock based on the time information and a fourth count value output from the second counter obtained by adjustment of the delay by using a value output from the second counter.

10 . The information processing device according to claim 9 , wherein when a received packet to which the time information is included is received for the first time, the synchronization control section adjusts the delay of this time information by using the fifth count value at the time of the arrival of the received packet, and sets the initial value to the first counter and the second counter based on the delay-adjusted time information.
