Digital recording/reproducing device, computer program, and server

Abstract

The invention provides a control program of the digital recording/reproducing device which comprises: a plurality of tuners which can receive a plurality of television signals; a converter by which the tuners convert a television signal into a digital signal; a recording means for recording program data converted by the converter; a receiving means for receiving an operation signal relating to reproducing the program data recorded in the recording means: a time index receiving procedure for receiving a time index having an identifier; a time index recording procedure for recording a received time index on the recording means; a signal receiving procedure for receiving an operation signal from a remote controller; and a controlling procedure for detecting an identifier of the time index relating to the program data corresponding to the operation signal received by the signal receiving procedure.

1 . A control program of the digital recording/reproducing device which comprises:
 a plurality of tuners which can receive a plurality of television signals at the same time;   a converter by which the tuners convert a television signal into a digital signal;   a recording means for recording program data converted by the converter; and   a receiving means for receiving an operation signal relating to reproducing the program data recorded in the recording means, and which reproduces the program data on the output device based on the operation signal which the receiving means received,   wherein the control program is a computer program which makes a controlling computer of the digital recording/reproducing device execute:   a time index receiving procedure for receiving a time index having an identifier which can identify the program data and a plurality of program section data consisting of the program data, via a communication means from a server for time indexes connected via the communication means;   a time index recording procedure for recording a received time index on the recording means;   a signal receiving procedure for receiving an operation signal from a remote controller; and   a controlling procedure for detecting an identifier of the time index relating to the program data corresponding to the operation signal received by the signal receiving procedure, extracting the program data associated with a detected identifier from a recording means, and issuing an instruction for reproducing on the output device.
