PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a provider to actively control a method for displaying a video using a plurality of video streams.

SOLUTION: A transmission device 1 generates a plurality of video streams used for displaying a video of one program. By multiplexing a plurality of video streams, a multiplexed stream is generated to provide the multiplexed stream added by compose information to a reception device 2. The compose information contains information for specifying which video stream is to be used for displaying a video at each position of a screen 3. In the reception device 2, the video stream contained in the multiplexed stream is decoded and each video is displayed on the screen 3 according to the information contained in the compose information. The present invention may be applied to a device which handles a plurality of video streams.
