BROADCAST CONTENT PRODUCTION DEVICE AND METHOD THEREFOR

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a broadcast content production device which never causes a conversion lag when broadcast contents are produced by the use of data acquired from outside. SOLUTION: A receiver 101 receives data and generates a data name, writes them in a received information storage 102, writes the names of an outer system and the data in a received information control list 231, reads out content names from a content control list 232 and writes them in the received information control list 231, reads out all data names corresponding to the read content names from the content control list 232, and indicates to a synthesizing indication control 104 to synthesize when all data have been received. The synthesizing indication control 104 determines one of XML conversion devices 121 to 123 and outputs the content name, the data name, and the data to the determined XML conversion device. The XML conversion device produces contents on the basis of the data and template documents.
