A video receiving apparatus includes a receiver, a first display, an extractor, an information forming controller, a number-of-viewer detector, a communicator, and a display controller, leading to appropriate display of configuration information and associated information of a video content. The extractor extracts a partial content from the video content. The information forming controller forms the configuration information from the partial content. The number-of-viewer detector detects the number of viewers present within a predetermined area. The communicator receives an identifier transmitted from a mobile terminal having a second display. The display controller can selectively display the configuration information on the second display of the mobile terminal identified by the identifier, and displays the configuration information on at least one of the first and second displays based on the number of the viewers and the number of the identifiers.
