As described above, according to the present invention, a video signal and an audio signal based on the output of one of the first and second tuners are put on a carrier wave and transmitted to the remote controller by the television receiver. The transmission means is provided, and the remote control is provided with the second display means for displaying an image based on the output of one of the first and second tuners. Therefore, the child screen can be displayed on the remote control, and the child screen can be displayed on the main screen. There is no need to display the screen, so that the effect of being able to view the second screen such as the counterprogram without blocking a part of the parent screen is obtained. Also, since the remote control is provided with a headphone terminal for outputting an audio signal based on the output of one of the first and second tuners, the remote control can be used without connecting the headphone cord to the headphone terminal of the television receiver. There is an effect that it is possible to listen to the television with the headphones only by connecting to the TV.
