摘要

Processing at a reception side is facilitated. A subtitle processing unit (133) converts subtitle data of a two-dimensional image generated by a subtitle generating unit (132) into subtitle data for a stereoscopic image corresponding to a transmission format of stereoscopic image data supplied from a data fetching unit (130) to a video encoder (113). The subtitle data for the stereoscopic image includes data of a left-eye subtitle and data of a right-eye subtitle. The subtitle data for the stereoscopic image is generated to bright disparity to occur between the left-eye subtitle and the right-eye subtitle. A reception side can easily generate display data of the left-eye subtitle to overlap the left-eye image data included in the stereoscopic image data and display data of the right-eye subtitle to overlap the right-eye image data included in the stereoscopic image data based on the subtitle data for the stereoscopic image, and thus processing can be facilitated.
