In a home theater system having a source apparatus, a repeater apparatus and a sink apparatus connected in the recited order, even if connected to any type of sink apparatus, the repeater apparatus provides, as format information of video and audio signals, information to be used for correct transmission to the source apparatus. A control part (210) of a repeater apparatus (200) reads EDID information from a memory (321) of a sink apparatus (300) connected to the repeater apparatus (200); analyzes the formats of video and audio signals that can be processed by the sink apparatus (300); if there is included any format that cannot be dealt with by the repeater apparatus (200) itself, removes information related to that format; reconstructs EDID information; stores the reconstructed EDID information into a memory (221); and causes a source apparatus (100) to refer to the stored EDID information as that of the repeater apparatus (200).
