ABSTRACT:
The present invention presents an information-outputting apparatus, an information-reporting method and an information-signal-supply-route-selecting method, which provide a digital-content utilization environment giving the user a high degree of freedom to make use of the apparatus and the methods.The information-outputting apparatus receives an isochronous packet transmitted by a source external apparatus by adoption of an isochronous communication method through a digital bus connecting the external apparatus to the information-outputting apparatus. In the information-outputting apparatus, an IEEE 1394 I/F circuit extracts information on the source electronic apparatus and information on the transmission format. A control unit supplies these pieces of information to an OSD-generating circuit for displaying them on a screen of a display unit employed in the information-outputting apparatus.
