FIG. 2 is a diagram in which an electronic program guide is displayed on a display such as a television device. As shown in the figure, the electronic program guide has television broadcast channel numbers as columns and broadcast times corresponding to rows, and each corresponding square contains the television broadcast program title, contents, and the like. In addition, an ID number is assigned to each square, and a signal corresponding to each program of the television signal is assigned a number corresponding to the ID number.

(2) Normal data recording / playback method.
A method for recording a television broadcast by the hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 1 will be described. At this time, the user records a television broadcast by inputting a program to be recorded in advance from the remote controller 20 through the remote controller I / F 17 with reference to the electronic program guide and publications or from the operation panel 18. Reservation information input from the remote controller 20 or the operation panel 18 is recorded once in the RAM 16 and the microcomputer 14 controls the recording / reproducing apparatus 1 with a built-in hard disk based on the information.

  When a television signal received by an antenna (not shown) is input to the tuner 2, the tuner 2 demodulates the television signal and outputs it to the analog / digital conversion device 3. The analog / digital conversion device 3 converts the input analog signal into a digital signal and outputs it to the encoder 5. The encoder 5 converts and compresses the input digital signal into an MPEG2 digital signal and outputs it to the hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6. The hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6 receives the data converted and compressed by the MPEG2 system and records it on the internal hard disk.

  As a method of performing reservation recording using the hard disk recording / reproducing means 1, the reservation screen is displayed on the display screen of the television device 19 using the OSD, and the user operates the remote controller 20 or the operation panel 18 while watching the reservation screen. The method is known.

  A method for reproducing data recorded by the recording / reproducing apparatus 1 with a built-in hard disk will be described. The video data recorded on the hard disk or DVD medium via the hard disk recording / reproducing device 6 or the disk recording / reproducing device 7 is output to the controller module 8 and is once recorded in the buffer 9 in the controller module 8. Thereafter, after receiving an instruction from the microcomputer 14, the controller module 8 outputs the data recorded in the buffer 9 to the decoder 10. The decoder 10 expands the data converted and compressed by the MPEG2 method into reproducible data, and outputs it to the digital / analog conversion circuit 11. The digital / analog conversion circuit 11 converts the input data into analog data and outputs it to the graphic controller 12. The graphic controller 12 outputs the expanded video data to the television device 19 connected to the outside of the recording / reproducing device 1 with a built-in hard disk.

  Also, the hard disk built-in recording / reproducing apparatus 1 can record the video data once recorded by the hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6 on a DVD medium via the disk recording / reproducing apparatus 7. The hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6 reads out the data recorded on the built-in disk and outputs it to the controller module 8. The controller module 8 records the input data once in the internal buffer 9 and then outputs it to the disk recording / reproducing apparatus 7 in response to an instruction from the microcomputer 14. The disk recording / reproducing apparatus 7 records the input data on a disk-shaped recording medium such as a DVD medium.

  At this time, the recording / reproducing apparatus 1 with a built-in hard disk according to an embodiment of the present invention has a plurality of DVD media arranged in the disk recording / reproducing apparatus 7 and selects a DVD medium for recording video data recorded on the hard disk. A structure having a selection unit is provided.

(3) Structure of Disc Recording / Reproducing Device FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a disc recording / reproducing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The disc-shaped recording / reproducing apparatus 7 includes a changer 21, a recording / reproducing unit 22, and a disc selecting unit 23. The changer 21 can place the disk 1, the disk 2, and the disk 3, and selects a predetermined DVD medium from the arranged DVD disk 1, DVD disk 2, and DVD disk 3 according to an instruction from the disk selection unit 23. . The recording / playback unit 22 performs recording / reading of video data using the selected DVD medium.

  The changer 21 according to an embodiment of the present invention arranges three DVD media, but the number of DVDs that can be arranged is not limited to three.

  A method by which the disc selection unit 23 selects a DVD medium for recording video data recorded on the hard disk will be described. There are two methods for causing the disc selection unit 23 to select a DVD medium: manual selection in which the user himself selects the DVD medium, and automatic selection in which the hard disk built-in recording / reproducing apparatus 1 automatically selects. In the above two methods, the user performs operation input using the remote controller 20 or the operation panel 18 while viewing the setting screen displayed on the display screen of the television device 19 on the OSD.

  FIG. 4 is a setting screen displayed on the television device according to the embodiment of the present invention. From the figure, three discs arranged on the changer 21 are displayed as disc 1, disc 2 and disc 3 from the upper left, and the title of the data currently recorded is displayed below each displayed disc. . As shown in the figure, the current data on the disc 1 is recorded with three title names of AAA, BBB, and CCC. Below that, the remaining amount of each disc is displayed, and the remaining amount of the disc 1 is 1 Gbyte. Going further down, the title of the scheduled recording is displayed in the column displaying the dubbing reservation title. Finally, the total time of data scheduled to be recorded is displayed in the column displaying the total number of dubbing in the lower right. These data are created by the control device 13 based on the data of the electronic program guide acquired by the program information acquisition unit 4, and have data recording date / time and data amount information not shown.

  From the figure, when the user records 6 titles AAA, BBB, CCC, DDD, EEE, and FFF on the hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6 and then dubbes each recorded title on a disc-shaped recording medium such as a DVD medium, As shown in the figure, a title scheduled to be reserved is displayed in the dubbing reservation title column. For the reservation of the above six titles, the user has already input reservation recording in advance using a reservation screen (not shown). The user uses the remote controller 20 to select either “automatic sorting” or “manual sorting” displayed in the lower right sorting method column.

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart executed by the microcomputer on the selection screen. When the user gives an instruction to display the selection screen using the remote controller 20, the microcomputer 14 outputs the selection screen data recorded in the ROM 15 to the RAM 16, and the selection screen data output to the RAM 16 is converted to the OSD. Is displayed on the display panel of the television apparatus 19 (step S100). Next, the microcomputer 14 calculates the total time and capacity required for dubbing the title to be dubbed based on the data of the electronic program guide acquired by the program information acquisition unit 4 and displays it on the selection screen (step S101). Next, when the user selects automatic distribution in the distribution method field on the reservation screen, the microcomputer 14 proceeds to step 104. On the other hand, when the user selects “manual distribution”, the microcomputer 14 proceeds to step S103, and the microcomputer 14 receives an instruction from the user. When “manual distribution” is selected, the user himself / herself selects the title to be recorded on the disc-shaped recording medium using the remote controller 20. The operation when automatic distribution is selected will be described below.

  In step S104, the microcomputer 14 compares the title name displayed in the dubbing reservation title column with the title name recorded on each disc, and on the selection screen, each title displayed in the dubbing reservation title column has the same name. Can be sorted to the disc field where is recorded. Data with title names AAA, BBB, and CCC is recorded on disc 1, data with title name DDD is recorded on disc 2, and data with title name EEE is recorded on disc 3, respectively. Therefore, the microcomputer distributes AAA, BBB, and CCC titles to the disk 1 column, and distributes EEE titles to the disk 3 column.

  At this time, as for the title name FFF, the same title is not recorded on any disc. When such a title name exists, the microcomputer 14 determines the disc field of the sorting destination in the following order. First, a disc on which a title having the same first character is recorded is selected from titles recorded on each disc. If no such disc exists, the disc on which the title names are recorded separately is selected. If there is no such disc, it is automatically distributed to the disc 1 column. In FIG. 6, there is neither a disc on which a title having the same first letter is recorded nor a disc on which disc titles are recorded separately.

  After the titles are assigned to the respective disc fields as described above, the word “complete” is displayed on the dubbing reservation screen, and the microcomputer 14 waits until the user selects “complete”. At this time, the user can manually select again each title selected and distributed to each disc column using the remote controller 20 again. In FIG. 6, the title FFF is allocated to the disk 1, and the free capacity of the disk 1 becomes 0 Gbytes. Therefore, the title FFF is allocated to the disk 2 column again. At this time, it is also possible to change the name of the title selected and assigned to each disc column. For example, the name of the title FFF selected in the column of the disc 2 is changed to DDD which is another title name recorded on the disc 2. As a result, it is possible to prevent the FFF title from being automatically distributed to the disc 2 column from the next time.

  When the user makes the above adjustment and selects “complete” on the selection screen, the microcomputer 14 creates an actual reservation distribution instruction based on the information displayed on the selection screen (step S105). After that, when all the reserved recording is executed on the hard disk by the hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6 based on the reserved recording information performed by the user on another reservation screen (not shown), the microcomputer 14 sends information on the selection screen to the disk selection unit 23. Give instructions created based on. Based on the above instruction, the disk selector 23 causes the changer 21 to select a disk-shaped recording medium. The microcomputer 14 starts dubbing of the video data recorded on the hard disk to the selected disk-shaped recording medium. At this time, the microcomputer 14 adjusts the time so that recording on the magnetic disk and dubbing from the magnetic disk to the disk-shaped recording medium are not performed simultaneously.

(4) Modified Example In the hard disk recording / reproducing means 1 having the above-described structure, it is also possible to perform distribution using time information as a method of distributing to each disk on the selection screen. Since the electronic program guide data includes time information such as program start time and airing time, video data can be recorded from the hard disk to a disk-shaped recording medium by using the time information of the electromagnetic program guide. Is possible.

  This is because, for example, three types of programs with a constant weekly broadcast start time are recorded on the magnetic disk using the hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6 and then the three types of programs are dubbed to a disc-shaped recording medium based on the broadcast start time. Is possible.

  When the user records three titles CCC, DDD, and FFF on the hard disk recording / reproducing apparatus 6 on the selection screen of FIG. 7 and then dubbes each recorded title on a disc-shaped recording medium such as a DVD medium. As shown, the reserved title is displayed in the dubbing reserved title field. The reservation of the above three titles has been made by the user in advance using the reservation screen (not shown). It is assumed that the title name CCC is a program being broadcast at the same time as AAA.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart executed by the microcomputer on the selection screen. When the user gives an instruction to display the selection screen using the remote controller 20, the microcomputer 14 outputs the dubbing reservation screen data recorded in the ROM 15 to the RAM 16, and the dubbing reservation screen data output to the RAM 16. Is displayed on the display panel of the television device 19 by OSD (step S200). Next, the microcomputer 14 calculates the total time and capacity required for dubbing the title to be dubbed based on the data of the electronic program guide acquired by the program information acquisition unit 4 and displays it on the dubbing reservation screen (step S201). Next, when the user selects automatic distribution in the distribution method field on the reservation screen, the microcomputer 14 proceeds to step 204. On the other hand, when the user selects “manual distribution”, the microcomputer 14 proceeds to step S203, and the microcomputer 14 receives an instruction from the user.

  In step S204, the microcomputer 14 compares the broadcast start time of the title name displayed in the dubbing reservation title column with the broadcast start time of the program recorded on each disc, and displays it in the dubbing reservation title column on the dubbing reservation screen. Each of the titles can be assigned to a disc column in which titles to be broadcast at the same time are recorded. Now, it is assumed that the data with the title name AAA is recorded on the disc 1, and the CCC to be reserved and recorded from now on is broadcast at the same time as the above-described AAA. Therefore, the microcomputer distributes the CCC title to the disc 1 column, and DDD and FFF to the disc 2 column.
