  2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, electronic devices that can simultaneously receive television broadcasts of a plurality of channels and continuously record on a recording medium have become widespread. In addition, some of these electronic devices have a function that can be overwritten sequentially after a certain period of time has elapsed, for example.

  In such an electronic device, it is possible to record a large amount of video content (broadcast program or the like), and for example, the user is prevented from inadvertently missing a desired video content (broadcast program or the like). It is possible.

  However, since a large amount of video content (broadcast program or the like) is recorded, it has been a problem that the user has to find the desired video content (broadcast program or the like) complicated.

  In order to reduce the complexity of searching for the desired video content (broadcast program or the like), for example, a search with a predetermined condition is performed.

  Here, for example, the user operates the operation device (such as a remote controller) 20 and designates “Yes” or “No” displayed on the display device 8. Here, “Yes” 35 is designated, and a search including the set exclusion search is executed.

  That is, a second search condition for excluding programs related to the specified excluded program from the first recorded program list is set (second search condition setting unit).

  Although not particularly shown, the second recorded program list searched under the first search condition and the second search condition is output to the display device 8 of the electronic device 1 (second recorded program list). Output section).

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the electronic apparatus according to the embodiment.

  Step S100 is a start step here. Then, it progresses to step S101.

  Step S101 is a step of displaying and outputting a search list (first list) of recorded programs searched under a predetermined condition (first condition). Then, it progresses to step S102.

  Step S102 is a step of detecting whether an excluded program is designated. When it is detected that the excluded program is designated, the process proceeds to step S103 (Yes). If it is detected that an excluded program is not specified, the process proceeds to step S101 and the above process is repeated (No).

  Step S103 is a step of setting a search for excluding programs related to the specified excluded program (for example, programs related to “program title”), as shown in FIG. Then, it progresses to step S104.

  Step S104 is a step of setting a search for a program in a recording state as shown in FIG. Then, it progresses to step S105.

  Step S105 is a step of setting a search when the search result exceeds a preset value (for example, 100) as shown in FIG. Then, it progresses to step S106.

  As shown in FIG. 6, step S106 is a step of setting an exclusion keyword particularly for children (for example, under 20 years old). Then, it progresses to step S107.

  Step S107 is a step of displaying and outputting the set search conditions as shown in FIG. Then, it progresses to step S108.

  Step S108 is a step of detecting whether the second search condition including the exclusion search is set, for example. If it is detected that the second search condition is set, the process proceeds to step S109 (Yes). If it is not detected that the second search condition is set, the processing here is repeated (No).

  Step S109 is a step of executing a search under the set conditions (first condition + second condition), and displaying and outputting a search list (second list) of recorded programs, although not particularly shown. Then, it progresses to step S110.

  Step S110 is an end step, and the process here ends.

  FIG. 9 is a flowchart for explaining the operation of the electronic apparatus shown in FIG. 5 according to the embodiment.

  Step S300 is a start step here. Then, it progresses to step S301.

  Step S301 is a step of setting search conditions. Then, it progresses to step S302.

  Step S302 is a step of detecting whether or not an exclusion search condition (for example, the viewing age limit is less than 20 years old) specifically for children is set. When it is detected that the exclusion search condition for the child is set, the process proceeds to step S303 (Yes). If it is detected that the exclusion search condition for the child is not set, the process proceeds to step S304 (No).

  Step S303 is a step of displaying and outputting an exclusion search condition (for example, keywords such as alcohol, cigarettes, etc.) targeting children on the display device 8 as candidates for exclusion keywords. Then, it progresses to step S304.

  Step S304 is an end step, and the process here ends.

  That is, as described above, one of the methods for searching for a program desired by the user from a large number of recorded programs is a program search function provided in, for example, a television or a recording device.

  However, when this program search function is not well configured (for example, when a keyword or genre is simply set), a program that the user does not expect may be searched. In this case, the search result desired by the user may not be obtained.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the exclusion search is set as described above.

  By setting an exclusion keyword, it is possible to exclude an unexpected program.

  However, if the exclusion keyword is simply set, the program desired by the user may be filtered. For example, assuming that there is a program “Today's music” that the user does not want and a program “Today's dinner” that the user wants, filtering by “Today” will result in the “Today” desired by the user. The program “Night Dinner” is also filtered.

  Therefore, in this embodiment, the first search result (first list) is used to specify a program to be excluded from search.

  That is, as described above, the electronic device 1 displays the first search result (first list) and designates the program in the first search result (FIG. 2A). Then, a message “Would you like to set this program as an exclusion keyword?” Is displayed here (FIG. 2B).

  When the user selects “Yes”, the program title is set as an excluded keyword. Thereby, the user can exclude a specific program.

  As another embodiment, the recording state may be referred to and excluded from the search result (FIG. 4).

  In this example, for example, a plurality of check boxes can be selected, and the exclusion condition is, for example, “exclude programs with missing recordings” or “exclude programs that are overwritten and deleted”.

  Here, a part of the recorded content of a program lacking recording is, for example, when the power is turned off, when the recording setting is set to “No”, or when the B-CAS card is not connected. Indicates a missing program.

  The program being overwritten and deleted is, for example, a program that is being deleted when a new recording is started by overwriting the oldest recorded content by loop recording on a television having a simultaneous recording function of a plurality of channels. It shows that.

  In this embodiment, these programs can be excluded from the search results by adding these conditions to the exclusion conditions, for example.

  Another embodiment includes a method using the number of detected search results.

  For the user, for example, even if the search result is searched for a small number of programs such as one or two, which is not a preference, there is not much dissatisfaction.

  However, for example, a program that is broadcast every day or a program that is frequently re-broadcasted is extracted in large quantities by the search under the same conditions. For this reason, other search results may be buried.

  In such a case, for example, a message is displayed as shown in FIG. 5, and the user is prompted to determine whether or not to set the program “***” as an excluded keyword. Thereby, it becomes possible to approach the search result desired by the user.

  Further, in this embodiment, an exclusion search (for example, viewing age limit setting etc.) especially for children is set.

  Depending on the setting information, the excluded keyword may be automatically set / candidate.

  For example, when the viewing age restriction setting is set to less than 20 years old, the electronic device 1 automatically sets “alcohol” and “cigarette” as exclusion keywords, so that the program is inappropriate for children. Can be prevented from being extracted.

In other words, in this embodiment, the electronic device includes a first recorded program list output unit that outputs the first recorded program list searched under the first search condition. Also, the output first recorded video An excluded program designating unit for designating a program to be excluded from the program list; and a second search condition for excluding a program related to the specified excluded program from the first recorded program list. A second recorded program list output unit that outputs a second recorded program list searched under the first search condition and the second search condition.

  In this embodiment, the electronic device can set a search for a program in a recording state as the second search condition.

  In this embodiment, the electronic device can set a program title when the search result exceeds the number of values set in advance as the second search condition.

  Further, in this embodiment, the electronic device can set an exclusion condition for children as the second search condition.

  In this embodiment, the electronic device includes an output unit that outputs the first search condition and the second search condition.

  Further, in this embodiment, the electronic device searches for the program in the recorded state as the second search condition, and excludes the program title when the search result exceeds the preset number of values and the child. Two or more conditions among the conditions may be combined.

  By configuring as described above, in this embodiment, it is possible to reduce the complexity associated with the video content extraction operation desired by the user.

  Note that all the control processing procedures of the above-described embodiment can be executed by software. For this reason, it is possible to easily realize the same effect as that of the above-described embodiment only by installing and executing this program on a normal computer through a computer-readable storage medium storing the program for executing the control processing procedure. it can.

  Note that the above embodiment is not limited to the description itself, and in the implementation stage, the constituent elements can be variously modified and embodied without departing from the spirit of the invention.

  Further, various inventions can be formed by appropriately combining a plurality of constituent elements disclosed in the embodiment.

  For example, some components may be deleted from all the components shown in the embodiment. Furthermore, you may combine suitably the component covering different embodiment.
