Abstract

The invention relates to a method for transmitting redundancy data in an hybrid broadband/broadcast network system comprising a broadcast network dedicated to transmission of broadcast services and a broadband network dedicated to transmission of at least unicast services, the method being carried out in at least one network entity and comprising the following steps: —selecting (42) a transmission mode for transmitting redundancy data among a plurality of transmission modes supported by the broadband network; —obtaining (43) redundancy data, said redundancy data comprising information for decoding broadcast services broadcasted by the broadcast network; —transmitting (44), via at least one node of the broadband network, the obtained redundancy data according to the selected transmission mode.
