"Image Data Transmission Device, Control Method And Program"
Abstract: [Object] To enable the necessity of transmission of 3D image data via a digital interface to be dealt with. [Solution] The initial version of an HDMI transmitting unit 206A is set to HDMI 1.3. When a power-on state is set and when a connection of a monitor device (TV) is confirmed using an HPD line, a CPU 211A determines the necessity of an update. When received image data is 3D image data and when the monitor device is 3D-compatible, an update process is performed. An update manager 271 is connected to a download server 243, and downloads update digital interface control software from the download server 243 to install it into an HDMI controller 273. Accordingly, the version of the HDMI transmitting unit 206A is set to HDMI 1.4, so that the 3D image data can be handled.
