| 1. A data transmission device comprising:
a first generator for generating a first data stream that is utilized after the first data stream is accumulated in a recording
medium on a receiving side;
a second generator for generating a second data stream that includes audio data and video data;
a multiplexer for multiplexing the first data stream at a first coding rate and for additionally multiplexing the first data
stream having the first coding rate into the second data stream by changing a transmission rate of the first data stream to
a second coding rate lower than the first coding rate;
a transmitter for transmitting the multiplexed data stream that has been multiplexed by the multiplexer; and
a controller for controlling the multiplexer so that the transmission rate for the first data stream becomes lower than that
for the second data stream.
