Claim:
1. A transmitter apparatus comprising: a first multi-value signal generator that converts a non-video signal of aM bits equal to “a” multiplied by “M”, where “a” and “M” are positive integers, into a multi-value signal of a multi-value number 2 a control signal generator that generates a control signal indicating one of a blanking time interval and an active time interval, and outputs the control signal; a selector that selects one of the non-video signal and a zero signal on the basis of the control signal, and sends the selected signal to the first multi-value signal generator; a second multi-value signal generator that converts the video signal of aN bits equal to “a” multiplied by “N”, where “N” is a positive integer, into a multi-value signal of a multi-value number 2 an adder that adds the resulting signal of the first multi-value signal generator and the resulting signal of the second multi-value signal generator, and outputs a resulting signal; and a transmission driver circuit that receives the resulting signal output from the adder, transmits the multi-value signal of the multi-value number 2
