Abstract
A video distribution apparatus (corresponding to an information processing apparatus) is provided with a light emitting diode (LED) (a tally lamp) for indicating whether a video is selected as a video being distributed or a video in a standby state by a switcher, which receives the video. In a case where a control command is received from an infrared remote controller (corresponding to an external device), the video distribution apparatus determines whether the LED (the tally lamp) is in an ON state or an OFF state. In a case of the ON state, the video distribution apparatus disables a control command from the infrared remote controller. In a case of the OFF state, the video distribution apparatus performs processing according to the control command from the infrared remote controller.
