ABSTRACT:
A method for controlling a plurality of devices including a video cassette recorder having a function for transmitting state data representing a state of the video cassette recorder to a TV receiver in response to a request for state made by the TV receiver, and a function for multiplexing the display of state representing the state of the video cassette recorder onto the reproduced image and transmitting the multiplexed result to the TV receiver. When a change occurs in the state of the video cassette recorder, and a request for state is made by the receiver, the video reproducing device ceases its OSD function. On the other hand, when a change occurs in the state of the video cassette recorder, and no request for state is made by the receiver1, the OSD function is brought into an operation.
