A video processing system includes: an acquirer that acquires video data including a main video; a format acquirer that acquires a display format that indicates a luminance dynamic range format displayable by a video display apparatus; a generator that generates first characteristics information that indicates first dynamic luminance characteristics that correspond to the display format by using the video data when a luminance dynamic range format of the main video indicated by the video data is different from the display format, the first dynamic luminance characteristics being dynamic luminance characteristics indicating a time-dependent change in luminance characteristics of the main video; and a video transmitter that outputs the first characteristics information generated by the generator.
