Abstract:
In a case where a main stream and a control signal are transmitted in parallel between two devices, transmission of the main stream is continued without interruption of the transmission of the main stream even in a case where communication quality of the control signal is deteriorated. Provided is a transmission control device including an information acquisition unit configured to acquire a channel change request transmitted from a reception device in a case where communication quality of a control signal transmitted through a first channel and received by the reception device being poorer than first quality has been detected, and a transmission control unit configured to start transmission of the control signal to the reception device through a second channel different from the first channel in a case where the channel change request has been acquired, in which the transmission control unit stops transmission of the control signal through the first channel in a case where a predetermined condition has been satisfied since the start of transmission of the control signal through the second channel.
