Synchronous control device, synchronous control method, and synchronous control program
A synchronous shift of video/audio data between a plurality of display system devices is suppressed. A synchronous control device includes a coded-data adjustment unit 312 or a video and audio data adjustment unit 314 configured to perform frame adjustment based on a predetermined frame adjustment instruction by inserting predetermined frame data into a plurality of pieces of frame data in a chronological order or deleting a piece of frame data from the plurality of pieces of frame data, a video and audio data output unit 315 configured to sequentially output each piece of frame data subjected to the frame adjustment, and a video and audio data output time-point adjustment unit 316 configured to compare a reference time point for outputting each piece of the frame data with an output time point at which each piece of the frame data is output. In the synchronous control device, the video and audio data output time-point adjustment unit 316 issues the frame adjustment instruction to insert predetermined frame data if the output time point precedes the reference time point by a threshold value or longer, and alternatively issues the frame adjustment instruction to delete a piece of frame data if the output time point is delayed from the reference time point by a threshold value or longer.
