1. A transmitting method of a transmission apparatus comprising:
generating broadcast signals, each of the broadcast signals comprising a service formed of media data, wherein each of the broadcast signals reproduces the service; and
transmitting a broadcast stream by transmitting the broadcast signals through respective radio frequency (RF) channels,
wherein each of the broadcast signals comprises signaling for the service,
wherein the signaling for the service comprises attribute information indicating whether the broadcast stream delivered through the respective RF channels comprises an essential portion of the service, wherein when the attribute information comprises a first value, the signaling for the service further comprises information regarding an identifier of another broadcast stream delivering a non-essential portion of the service, and
wherein the first value indicates that the broadcast stream comprises the essential portion of the service.
