L'invention concerne un système permettant d'emballer ensemble un certain nombre de trains de données variés comme contenu dans un seul programme distinct dit paquet omnimédia. On peut spécifier et créer une définition cadre du paquet omnimédia afin de permettre au boîtier décodeur client de décoder l'information et de donner accès à des trains comprenant des informations vidéo, audio et métadonnées. La définition cadre peut être utilisée par un système de diffusion pour créer un train de diffusion. L'invention concerne également un mécanisme qui permet à un fournisseur de contenu de définir un cadre pour livrer un paquet de contenus connexes. La définition cadre encapsule des informations nécessaires pour construire, formater, transmettre et afficher les trains de contenus variés. On peut télécharger les données vers un récepteur avant la diffusion d'un programme associé. L'invention concerne en outre la mise en oeuvre sur des systèmes terrestres, câblés, par satellite, VDSL et autres, y compris ceux qui supportent des communications montantes.
