The objective of the invention is to allow the status of the link setting of a digital interface to be timely changed to a state desired by a user. A transmission apparatus performs a link setting of a digital interface for an external device (a reception apparatus) and transmits, to the external device, content data via a transmission path according to the status of the link setting. The reception apparatus performs a link setting of a digital interface for an external device (the transmission apparatus) and receives, from the external device, the content data via the transmission path according to the status of this link setting. The transmission and reception apparatuses perform the link settings of the respective digital interfaces on the basis of the setting information of a link mode. |
