Title of Invention

AUXILIARY DATA INSERTION IN A TRANSPORT DATASTREAM

Abstract A digital device, Such as a digital VTR, receives and records an MPEG compatible DataStream. On play back, the DVTR inserts (32) packetized auxiliary information, such as on-screen display information, into the transport DataStream (30) for transmission to another digital device, such as a television receiver. Time stamps in the MPEG compatible DataStream are unaffected by the insertion of the auxiliary information. The DVTR VSB modulates (13) the DataStream to provide sufficient bandwidth for the auxiliary information in the DataStream.
