DATA READOUT DEVICE, DATA READOUT METHOD, AND PROGRAM
The present technology relates to a data readout device, a data readout method, and a program capable of preventing occurrence of a period in which no data is output. In circumstances where data is accumulated and the accumulated data is readout, the data cannot be readout and an underflow occurs if a situation occurs in which an error occurs in accumulating the data and the data cannot be accumulated. Readout is controlled using information included in data to prevent a continuous underflow despite the occurrence of an error has stopped after the underflow occurred. The accumulated data, information of which has been signaled, is started to read out at a timing specified by the information signaled in the data. The present technology is applicable to a reception device that receives a DVB-T2 signal in the M-PLP system.
1 . A data readout device comprising:
an accumulation unit configured to accumulate data; and
a readout unit configured to read out the data accumulated in the accumulation unit,
wherein the readout unit
reads out data, information of which is signaled, from the accumulation unit at a timing specified by the information signaled in the data.
2 . The data readout device according to claim 1 , wherein the information is a TTO signaled in a T2 frame in DVB-T2 standard.
3 . The data readout device according to claim 1 , wherein the information is BUFSTAT signaled in a C2 frame in DVB-C2 standard, and the data is read out according to a timing determined by the BUFSTAT.
4 . A method of reading out data in a data readout device including
an accumulation unit configured to accumulate data, and
a readout unit configured to read out the data accumulated in the accumulation unit,
the method comprising the step of:
controlling the readout unit to read out data, information of which is signaled, from the accumulation unit at a timing specified by the information signaled by the data.
5 . A computer-readable program for causing a computer configured to control a data readout device including
an accumulation unit configured to accumulate data, and
a readout unit configured to read out the data accumulated in the accumulation unit,
to execute processing including the step of:
controlling the readout unit to read out data, information of which is signaled, from the accumulation unit at a timing specified by the information signaled in the data.
