Abstract

Dans un système de distribution de contenus selon la présente invention, où des contenus reçus en provenance d'une station de diffusion sont codés en temps réel et répartis sur un réseau, un signal CM, qui indique si un CM est en cours de diffusion, est reçu en provenance de la station de diffusion. On détecte si une partie du CM est en cours de diffusion sur la base du signal CM, et sur la base du résultat de la détection, la partie du CM des contenus de diffusion est remplacée par une vidéo différente, puis est distribuée et lue.
