ABSTRACT:
A multiplexer according to an embodiment of the present invention multiplexes a video ES and an audio ES to generate a transport stream TS, and includes a video buffer, an audio buffer, and a multiplexing unit. A multiplexing unit executes simulation of a buffer occupation necessary for a video ES upon decoding the TS, and controls multiplexing of the video ES not to cause overflow of a buffer based on the simulation result. In the simulation, a predetermined time Δt is divided by N ((main buffer leak rate/system clock frequency)×N (N is an integer)=integer), the remainder R is carried over to the next calculation, and a current main buffer leak data amount is calculated by integer arithmetic based on the integral quotient.
