Abstract:
1. Data-transceiving equipment comprising: a received data-separating unit operable to separate received data into two different pieces of encoded data and graphics data, thereby providing the encoded data and the graphics data, when the received data includes the encoded data and the graphics data, said received data-separating unit being operable to provide the encoded data when the received data includes the encoded data, but not the graphics data; a decoding unit operable to decode the encoded data from said received data-separating unit, thereby providing decoded data; a graphics-generating unit operable to generate graphics image data based on the graphics data from said received data-separating unit, thereby providing the graphics image data; an image input unit operable to enter image data; an image-blending unit operable to blend a plurality of images with one another to provide blended image data, the plurality of images being represented by at least two pieces of data selected from among the decoded data from said decoding unit, the graphics image data from said graphics-generating unit, and the image data from said image input unit; an image-displaying unit operable to display a blended image based on the blended image data from said image-blending unit; an encoding unit operable to individually encode each of the image data from said image input unit, the decoded data from said decoding unit, and the graphics image data from said graphics-generating unit; and a storing unit operable to store the encoded image data, the encoded decoded data, and the encoded graphics image data.
