In a processing terminal, operational request information inputted from an operational request unit is transmitted as additional information to a communication unit of a CATV distributor. In the CATV distributor, the additional information is received in the communication unit, and when the additional information is the operational request information, an operational command generator generates operational command information corresponding to the operational request information. The operational command information is transmitted to a communication unit of a receiver through the communication unit. In the receiver, as the communication unit receives the operational command information for the receiver, an operating unit operates the receiver to perform the desired operation in response to the operational command information.

A data reproducing unit reproduces data read by a first reading unit from a storage medium. A storage unit stores added information corresponding to data stored on the storage medium. The added information is read by the second reading unit and reproduced by an added information reproducing unit. A control unit controls such that the data is reproduced by the data reproducing unit in synchronism with the reproduction of the added information by the added information reproducing unit.

A data reproducing unit reproduces data read by a first reading unit from a storage medium. A storage unit stores additional information corresponding to data stored on the storage medium. The additional information is read by the second reading unit and reproduced by an additional information reproducing unit. A control unit controls such that the data is reproduced by the data reproducing unit in synchronism with the reproduction of the additional information by the additional information reproducing unit.

A bidirectional CATV system having a CATV distributing device and a terminal system. The CATV distributing device includes a video information generating unit that generates video information by executing software, particularly game software, using execution information and a communication unit then receives the execution information from the terminal system. The communication unit sends the execution information to the video information generating unit and transmits the video information generated by the video information generating unit to the terminal system. The terminal system incudes a TV receiver that displays the video information transmitted from the CATV distributing device and a processing device having an execution information compilation unit that compiles the execution information. The communication unit then transmits the execution information to the CATV distributing device.

A first reading unit reads first performance data from a first storage medium, and outputs it to a reproducing unit. A second reading unit reads second performance data from a second storage medium, and outputs it to the reproducing unit. The reproducing unit reproduces the first performance data inputted from the first reading unit, and the second performance data inputted from the second reading unit. A control unit synchronizes reproduction of the first performance data and reproduction of the second performance data, and switches between these reproductions.

A bidirectional cable television ('CATV') system includes a CATV distributing device which transmits information through each of a plurality of channels. The information includes video information and added information relating to the content of the video information. A TV receiver then displays the video information that is transmitted from the CATV distributing device, and a processing terminal device compiles a picture that can be displayed on a monitor TV. The picture is compiled from the video information and added information that are sent from the CATV distributing device. The CATV distributing device includes a communication unit that transmits the video information and added information through each of the plurality of channel. The processing terminal device includes a communication unit that receives the video information and added information from the CATV distributing device, and a picture that is displayed on a monitor TV. The picture is displayed by dividing a single image field into a plurality of image regions and inserting the video information and added information which are made to correspond, mutually, in one of the image regions.
