- the group comprises one or more data elements, these data elements being arbitrary arrangement in the carousel can be transmitted, such as, in terms of time directly consecutive.
- the updating time of the data element is indicated by a relative time or by an absolute time. This makes it possible to determine an exact time at which the update takes place.
- a check of a data carousel for determining a time of the first update in respective test intervals is carried out, wherein in particular a time duration of the test interval is shorter than a time duration of the time interval
- a time of a next check is determined by adding the time interval (F) at the time of the first update.
- a status element is added to the data carousel for updating the group for the respective method, the status element indicating a regular or an irregular updating of at least one of the data elements of the group, wherein the updating based on the activation element is only performed during the regular update becomes.
- an associated updating element and / or an associated status element is added to a respective group of data elements.
- the invention further comprises a first device for carrying out a method for updating at least one data element in a data carousel, in which a first means is suitable for adding an updating element into the data carousel for at least one group of at least one data element Update element an update time of at least one of the data elements of the group, and / or a time interval for performing
- the invention also includes a second device for carrying out a check of an updating of a data element in a data carousel, in which a second means is suitable, based on an updating element added for at least one group of at least one data element in the data carousel, performing the verification of the at least one data element, wherein the updating element displays an update time of at least one of the data elements of the group, and / or a time interval for performing checks on an update of at least one data element of the group.
- the first and / or second device may be implemented and executed in hardware and / or software or in a combination of hardware and software.
- the first device is, for example, in a DVB transmitter or a server of a integrated streaming service and executed.
- the second device may be part of a DVB receiver unit of a set-top box or a portable receiver, in particular a mobile telephone.
- the invention comprises a data stream which has an updating element in the data carousel for at least one group of at least one data element, the updating element having an updating time of at least one of the data elements of the group, and / or
- Time interval for performing checks of an update of at least one of the data elements of the group indicates.
- This data stream is transmitted, for example, via an IP-based network (IP-Internet Protocol), via WLAN (WLAN - Wireless Local Area Network) or UMTS (UMTS - Universal Mobile Telecommunications System).
- IP-based network IP-Internet Protocol
- WLAN WLAN - Wireless Local Area Network
- UMTS UMTS - Universal Mobile Telecommunications System
- the data stream can be realized digitally by individual bits or bytes.
- the data stream comprises a status element for updating the group in the data carousel, wherein the
- Status element indicates a regular or an irregular update of at least one of the data elements of the group.
- the regular or an irregular updating of the first device e.g. a transmitter
- the second device for example a receiver.
- elements such as, for example, data elements El, E2, E3, written in a memory and clockwise, indicated by a curved arrow, read out.
- the ring buffer and the linear readout of the elements contained in the ring memory represents a data carousel K, in which elements are cyclically output and sent to a receiver, eg a DVB receiver.

Irregular updating of the data element within the data carousel results in an unpredictable change in the data element, e.g. due to a current event, which can not be planned. This can be a hot news policy item described by the data item.
- a regular update of the data element within the data carousel results, for example, in a predeterminable change of the data element. Describes the data element, for example, a currently broadcast a broadcast channel, this description will be updated when changing the broadcast program. This corresponds, for example, to the ESG. In the figure, by means of a dotted - gestri- The arrow indicates that the status element SE refers to the group G1.
- the status element SE is evaluated. If a current update is an irregular update, then a time of a current update for determining a next time for a subsequent update using the time interval is disregarded. In the case of a regular current update, the time of the current update is used to determine the next time for a subsequent update using the time interval F.
- the status element SE can be used when synchronizing the second device V2 to the data carousel K.
- the device V2 reads in the elements of the data carousel which are transmitted cyclically.
- the second device V2 is another time for a subsequent update by means of the time interval unknown since it does not know the last time of an update.
- the second device V2 checks in test intervals, which can be shorter compared to the time interval F, for example every 2 minutes, if at least one element of the group has been updated. If the update is detected, it is checked whether this update was irregular. If this is the case, then the time interval between the test interval and a regular update becomes
- the data stream BS comprises at least the group G1 with at least one data element E1 and the activation element AE. Furthermore, the data stream BS can have the status element SE.
