1. An electronic apparatus comprising:
a display; and
a processor configured to:
receive information about a plurality of pieces of content from an external apparatus;
identify a state of resources of the electronic apparatus that are available for processing, by the electronic apparatus, data of the plurality of pieces of content,
based on identification that capacity of resources of the electronic apparatus required to process the data of the plurality of pieces of content exceeds the identified state of resources of the electronic apparatus, transmit information about the identified state of resources to the external apparatus for mixing, by the external apparatus, two or more pieces of content among the plurality of pieces of content into one stream based on the identified state of resources, wherein the information about the identified state of resources includes information indicating at least one of a number of decoders in the electronic apparatus, a type of a decoder in the electronic apparatus, a number of scalers in the electronic apparatus, or a type of a scaler in the electronic apparatus,
receive data of the two or more pieces of content mixed into one stream and having an adjusted resolution from the external apparatus and that matches the state of resources of the electronic apparatus that are available for processing, by the electronic apparatus, data of the plurality of pieces of content, and
display images on the display based on the received data of the two or more pieces of content mixed into one stream.
