1. A video display device comprising:
- an input terminal through which a video stream output by a specific external device is input;
a reception portion; and
a control portion,wherein the video display device has, choices of an “
input target”
, a plurality of choices including a choice corresponding to the input terminal,the reception portion receives a remote control signal transmitted from a remote control transmitter for remotely operating the video display device, and transmits, to the control portion, a signal including a remote control code based on the remote control signal andwhen the control portion receives, from the reception portion, any one of the remote control codes corresponding to at least one of predetermined keys provided in the remote control transmitter,if the “
input target”
is set at the choice corresponding to the input terminal, the control portion controls the specific external device such that a remote operation of the specific external device on the at least one of predetermined keys is made valid, and does not perform an operation of the video display device corresponding to the remote control code received from the reception portion whereasif the “
input target”
is not set at the choice corresponding to the input terminal, the control portion controls the specific external device such that the remote operation of the specific external device on the at least one of predetermined keys is made invalid, and performs the operation of the video display device corresponding to the remote control code received from the reception portion.

Abstract
To a video display device, a remote control transmitter for remotely operating the video display device is attached. When at least one of predetermined keys provided in the remote control transmitter of an external device is operated, the video display device switches, according to the setting of an “input target”, the validness and the invalidness of an remote operation on the at least one of predetermined keys of the external device which outputs a video stream to the video display device.

4. An external device that outputs a video stream to a video display device, the external device comprising:
-
a reception portion; and a control portion, wherein the reception portion receives a remote control signal transmitted from a remote control transmitter for remotely operating the video display device, and transmits, to the control portion, a signal including a remote control code based on the remote control signal and when the control portion receives, from the reception portion, any one of the remote control codes corresponding to at least one of predetermined keys provided in the remote control transmitter, if a notification that the “
input target”
of the video display device is set at a choice which inputs the video stream from the external device is received from the video display device, the control portion controls the video display device such that a remote operation of the video display device on the at least one of predetermined keys is made invalid, and performs an operation of the external device corresponding to the remote control code received from the reception portion whereasif a notification that the “
input target”
of the video display device is not set at the choice which inputs the video stream from the external device is received from the video display device, the control portion controls the video display device such that the remote operation of the video display device on the at least one of predetermined keys is made valid, and does not perform the operation of the external device corresponding to the remote control code received from the reception portion. - View Dependent Claims (5)
