Abstract
An AV signal transmission and receiving system capable of appropriately receiving an AV signal includes a source apparatus and a sink apparatus connected to the source apparatus via an HDMI (registered trademark) cable. The sink apparatus includes: an AV signal receiving unit which receives an AV signal via the HDMI cable; a memory which holds the EDID; a rewriting unit which rewrites the EDID; an HPD control unit which controls output of an HPD signal; and a determining unit which: determines whether the AV signal which has been received is an HDMI signal conforming to an HDMI standard or a digital visual interface (DVI) signal; and when the determining unit determines that the AV signal is a DVI signal, instructs the rewriting unit to rewrite the EDID and instructs the HPD control unit to output the HPD signal indicating that reading of the EDID which has been rewritten is possible.
