Abstract
In a pay television device, a horizontal sync signal, a vertical sync signal, and the like are removed from a composite video signal, and first-frequency and second-frequency signals for descrambling processing are attached in the intervals corresponding to the removed signals, thus eliminating the need for multiplexing signals which are necessary for descrambling processing on an audio signal.
