Abstract

A video display system, having a reproduce apparatus, which is configured to reproduce content, thereby to output, and a display apparatus, which is configured to display the content outputted from the reproduce apparatus, wherein said display apparatus, when being inputted therein a 3D content, including the 3D video therein, is inputted from the reproduce apparatus, transmits a message for stopping reproduction of the 3D content and a message for suppressing the output of the message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video, to the reproduce apparatus, and presents the message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video, when receiving an instruction of reproducing the 3D content from a user, transmits a message for reproducing the 3D content to the reproduce apparatus, and is the reproduce apparatus, when receiving the message for stopping the reproduction of the 3D content, stops the reproduction of the 3D content, and when receiving the message for reproducing the 3D content, reproduces the 3D content, without outputting the message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video, and thereby to output, whereby the video signal reproduce apparatus to be connected with display apparatuses of various kinds of display methods starts reproducing of the 3D content, while preventing a display for confirming completion of preparation for viewing/listening of a user from being outputted in duplicate or by a plural number of times.

Claims (35)

1. A video display system, having a reproduce apparatus, which is configured to reproduce content, thereby to output, and a display apparatus, which is configured to display the content outputted from said reproduce apparatus, wherein

said display apparatus transmits a first command message for suppressing an output of a first guidance message for prompting preparation of viewing/listening of a 3D video, to said reproduce apparatus, and presents a second guidance message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video, the first guidance message is produced by the reproduce apparatus and the second guidance message is produced by the display apparatus, and

said reproduce apparatus reproduces said 3D content, without outputting the first guidance message to the display apparatus, and thereby to output.

2. The video display system, as described in the claim 1 , wherein

said display apparatus, when being inputted therein a 3D content, including the 3D video therein, is inputted from said reproduce apparatus, transmits a second command message for stopping reproduction of said 3D content and the first command message to said reproduce apparatus, and presents the second guidance message, when receiving an instruction of reproducing said 3D content from a user, transmits a third command message for reproducing said 3D content to said reproduce apparatus, and

said reproduce apparatus, when receiving the second command message, stops the reproduction of said 3D content, and when receiving the third command message reproduces said 3D content without outputting the first guidance message, and thereby to output.

3. The video display system, as described in claim 1 , wherein

presentation of the second guidance message on said display apparatus is conducted by outputting voices.

4. The video display system, as described in claim 1 , wherein

presentation of the second guidance message on said display apparatus is conducted by displaying said second guidance message.

5. A display apparatus, for displaying content outputted from a reproduce apparatus, wherein said apparatus

transmits a first command message for suppressing an output of a first guidance message for prompting preparation of viewing/listening of a 3D video to said reproduce apparatus, thereby to present a second guidance message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video, the first guidance message is produced by the reproduce apparatus and the second guidance message is produced by the display apparatus and

displays said 3D video outputted from the reproduce apparatus without the message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video.

6. The display apparatus, as described in the claim 5 , wherein

said apparatus, when being inputted a 3D content, including the 3D video therein, from said reproduce apparatus, transmits a second command message for stopping reproduction of said 3D content and the first command message, to said reproduce apparatus, and

when receiving an instruction of reproducing said 3D content from a user, transmits a third command message for reproducing said 3D content, to said reproduce apparatus.

7. The display apparatus, as described in claim 5 , wherein

presentation of the second guidance message on said display apparatus is conducted by outputting voices.

8. The display apparatus, as described in claim 5 , wherein

presentation of the second guidance message on said display apparatus is conducted by displaying said second guidance message.

9. A method for displaying in a video display system, having a reproduce apparatus, which is configured to reproduce content, thereby to output, and a display apparatus, which is configured to display the content outputted from said reproduce apparatus, comprising the following steps of:

a step for transmitting a command message for suppressing an output of a first guidance message for prompting preparation of viewing/listening of a 3D video, from said display apparatus to said reproduce apparatus, wherein the first guidance message is produced by the reproduce apparatus;

a step for said display apparatus to present a second guidance message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video, wherein the second guidance message is produced by the display apparatus; and

a step for said reproduce apparatus to reproduce said 3D content, without outputting the first guidance message to the display apparatus, and thereby outputting.

10. The method for displaying, as described in claim 9 , wherein

presentation of the second guidance message on said display apparatus is conducted by outputting voices.

11. The method for displaying, as described in claim 9 , wherein

presentation of the second guidance message on said display apparatus is conducted by displaying said second guidance message.

12. A method for displaying in a video display system, having a reproduce apparatus which is configured to reproduce content, thereby to output, and a display apparatus which is configured to display the content outputted from said reproduce apparatus, comprising the following steps of:

a step for inputting a 3D content, including the 3D video therein, from said reproduce apparatus to said display apparatus;

a step for transmitting a first command message for suppressing a first guidance message for prompting preparation of viewing/listening of the 3D video, and a second command message for stopping reproduction of the 3D content, from said display apparatus to said reproduce apparatus, wherein the first guidance message is produced by the reproduce apparatus;

a step for said reproduce apparatus to stop the reproduction of said 3D content, when said reproduce apparatus receives a message for stopping the reproduction of the 3D content;

a step for said display apparatus presents a second guidance message for prompting the preparation of the viewing/listening of the 3D video, wherein the second message is produced by the display apparatus;

a step for said display apparatus to transmit a third command message for reproducing said 3D content, to said reproduce apparatus, when receiving an instruction for reproducing said 3D content from a user; and

a step for said reproduce apparatus to reproduce said 3D content without outputting the first guidance message when said reproduce apparatus receives the third command message and thereby to output.
