Abstract
An AV device comprises a processing section for carrying out a process for view and listening, a signal output section for outputting a signal to the processing section, first signal input sections including a mobile audio input terminal, a first detecting section for detecting insertion/removal of a plug into/from the mobile audio input terminal, and a first control section for controlling the connection between the first signal input sections and the signal output section according to the result of the detection by the first detection section. Another AV device is provided in which insertion/removal of a plug into/from a second signal input section and indication information is outputted to a second video display section according to the detection result. With such constitutions, various processings can be carried out according to insertion/removal of a plug.

29. An operation method for AV apparatus, comprising:
-
a detecting step, which detects plugging-in/unplugging at a signal input unit; a controlling step for muting, which controls muting of display in the video display unit in cases where said the plugging-in has been detected in said detection step; an acquiring step for trigger signal for control, which acquires a trigger signal for control in order to control each unit; and an outputting step for notification information dependent on trigger signal for control, which outputs the notification information based on the trigger signal for control acquired by said acquiring step for trigger signal for control, and on the detection result in said detecting step. - View Dependent Claims (32)

30. An operation method for AV apparatus, comprising:
-
a detecting step, which detects plugging-in/unplugging at a signal input unit; a controlling step for muting, which controls muting of display in a video display unit when said the plugging-in has been detected in said detection step; an acquiring step for trigger signal for control, which acquires a trigger signal for control in order to control each unit; a determining step, which determines whether the trigger signal for control, acquired by said acquiring step for trigger signal for control, is other than a trigger signal for control regarding power or volume/sound when the muting control of video display is carried out by said controlling step for muting; a restricting step, which nullifies the trigger signal for control when the detection result by said determining step indicates that the signal is other than a trigger signal for control regarding volume/sound; and an outputting step for notification information of nullified trigger signal for control, which outputs notification information upon nullification by said restricting step.

31. An operation method for AV apparatus, which includes a backlight in a second video display unit, the method comprising:
-
a detecting step, which detects plugging-in/unplugging at a signal input unit; a controlling step for muting of backlight, which controls muting of video display by switching-off of the backlight in cases where said the plugging-in has been detected in said detection step; an acquiring step for trigger signal for control, which acquires a trigger signal for control in order to control each unit; a determining step, which determines whether the trigger signal for control, acquired by said acquiring step for trigger signal for control, is other than a trigger signal for control regarding power or volume/sound when the muting control of video display is carried out by said controlling step for muting; and a canceling step for muting of backlight, which cancels all or part of muting control of the backlight when the detection result by said determining step indicates that the signal is a trigger signal for control regarding power or volume/sound.
