Content data based on a low-bitrate-encoded image and data of an image of a transformation matrix in a neural network which is model data for obtaining an image close to an original image from the low-bitrate-encoded image are transmitted to the viewer terminal from the video image content distribution server. These data are used by the viewer terminal to obtain improved video image content.
