In switching a channel or in switching an external input, a reduction in a psychological strain on a user is offered. An image generating unit 22 generates image data indicating a lapse of time on the basis of time information received from a control unit 30 and supplies it to a combining unit 21. The combining unit 21 combines image data stored in a storage unit 25 and the image data indicating the time information from the image generating unit 22 to generate video data and supplies the video data to a video switching unit 16. The video switching unit 16 selects video data from a video decoder 14, the video data from the combining unit 21, or video data from a determination unit 24 on the basis of the control of the control unit 30 and outputs it to the display unit 18. For example, when a user switches a channel by operating an operating unit 31, muting is performed, the video data from the combining unit 21 is selected, and video indicating a lapse of time is displayed on the display unit 18. |
