Electronic apparatus

1. An electronic apparatus comprising:

a sending unit that sends data to an external_apparatus; and

a control unit that executes, based on a state of the external apparatus, one of a first process and a second process, wherein the first process includes a process for sending predetermined data to the external apparatus, wherein the predetermined data is generated by mixing video data and first ancillary data, wherein the second process includes a process for sending second ancillary data to the external apparatus without mixing video data and the second ancillary data,

wherein the control unit executes the first process without executing the second process to cause the external apparatus to output ancillary data relating to the electronic apparatus if the external apparatus is not in a recording mode, and wherein the recording mode is used for recording video data received from the electronic apparatus.

2. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first ancillary data includes ancillary data relating to the electronic apparatus, and wherein the second ancillary data includes ancillary data relating to the electronic apparatus.

3. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit executes the second process without executing the first process if the external apparatus is in the recording mode.

4. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first ancillary data includes data relating to predetermined error, wherein the predetermined error includes at least one of an error indicating that a remaining capacity of a battery connected to the electronic apparatus is lower than a first predetermined value, an error indicating that a temperature of a recording medium connected to the electronic apparatus is greater than or equal to a second predetermined value, and an error indicating that a temperature of an image capture device used by the electronic apparatus is greater than or equal to a third predetermined value, and wherein the second ancillary data includes data relating to the predetermined error.

5. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the predetermined data is sent to the external apparatus as video data.

6. An electronic apparatus comprising:

a sending unit that sends data to an external apparatus; and

a control unit that executes one of a first process and a second process, wherein the first process includes a process for sending predetermined data to the external apparatus, wherein the predetermined data is generated by mixing video data and first ancillary data, wherein the second process includes a process for sending second ancillary data to the external apparatus without mixing video data and the second ancillary data, and wherein the control unit executes the first process without executing the second process to cause the external apparatus to output ancillary data relating to the electronic apparatus if the external apparatus is registered in the electronic apparatus.

7. The electronic apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the first ancillary data includes ancillary data relating to the electronic apparatus, and wherein the second ancillary data includes ancillary data relating to the electronic apparatus.

8. The electronic apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the control unit executes the second process without executing the first process if the external apparatus is not registered in the electronic apparatus.

9. The electronic apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the first ancillary data includes data relating to predetermined error, wherein the predetermined error includes at least one of an error indicating that a remaining capacity of a battery connected to the electronic apparatus is lower than a first predetermined value, an error indicating that a temperature of a recording medium connected to the electronic apparatus is greater than or equal to a second predetermined value, and an error indicating that a temperature of an image capture device used by the electronic apparatus is greater than or equal to a third predetermined value, and wherein the second ancillary data includes data relating to the predetermined error.

10. The electronic apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the predetermined data is sent to the external apparatus as video data.

11. A method comprising:

sending data to an external apparatus;

executing, based on a state of the external apparatus, one of a first process and a second process, wherein the first process includes a process for sending predetermined data to the external apparatus, wherein the predetermined data is generated by mixing video data and first ancillary data, and wherein the second process includes a process for sending second ancillary data to the external apparatus without mixing video data and the second ancillary data; and

executing the first process without executing the second process to cause the external apparatus to output ancillary data relating to an electronic apparatus if the external apparatus is not in a recording mode, and wherein the recording mode is used for recording video data received from the electronic apparatus.

12. A method comprising:

sending data to an external apparatus;

executing one of a first process and a second process, wherein the first process includes a process for sending predetermined data to the external apparatus, wherein the predetermined data is generated by mixing video data and first ancillary data, and wherein the second process includes a process for sending second ancillary data to the external apparatus without mixing video data and the second ancillary data; and

executing the first process without executing the second process to cause the external apparatus to output ancillary data relating to an electronic apparatus if the external apparatus is registered in the electronic apparatus.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program executed by a computer, wherein the program causes the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:

sending data to an external apparatus;

executing, based on a state of the external apparatus, one of a first process and a second process, wherein the first process includes a process for sending predetermined data to the external apparatus, wherein the predetermined data is generated by mixing video data and first ancillary data, and wherein the second process includes a process for sending second ancillary data to the external apparatus without mixing video data and the second ancillary data; and

executing the first process without executing the second process to cause the external apparatus to output ancillary data relating to an electronic apparatus if the external apparatus is not in a recording mode, and wherein the recording mode is used for recording video data received from the electronic apparatus.

14. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program executed by a computer, wherein the program causes the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:

sending data to an external apparatus;

executing one of a first process and a second process, wherein the first process includes a process for sending predetermined data to the external apparatus, wherein the predetermined data is generated by mixing video data and first ancillary data, and wherein the second process includes a process for sending second ancillary data to the external apparatus without mixing video data and the second ancillary data; and

executing the first process without executing the second process to cause the external apparatus to output ancillary data relating to an electronic apparatus if the external apparatus is registered in the electronic apparatus.
