The operability of an external apparatus can be enhanced. In the present invention, a digital signal accepting means accepts a digital signal to be supplied from the external apparatus or an analog signal accepting means accepts an analog signal to be supplied from the external apparatus, the accepted digital signal or the analog signal is output with graphics information for operation of the external apparatus generated by a generating means as required, by an output means. Even in the case where any of the digital signal and the analog signal is supplied from the external apparatus, the graphics information is output with it, and the external apparatus can be operated based on the graphics information. Therefore, it is possible to provide a receiving device and a receiving method which can enhance the operability of the external apparatus.
