  Further, the microcomputer 4 sets the voice additional information to be erased from the storage device 5 when the user inputs a predetermined setting condition using the key 6. The key 6 selectively inputs and sets an arbitrary timing among a plurality of timings. The microcomputer 4 selectively sets an arbitrary timing from among a plurality.

  Further, the microcomputer 4 sets in advance a combination of a plurality of timings at which the audio additional information is erased from the storage device 5 when the user inputs a predetermined setting condition using the key 6.

  In addition, the microcomputer 4 causes the screen display device 7 to display the additional audio information recorded in the storage device 5 in a list form when the user inputs a predetermined setting condition using the key 6.

  The operation of the microcomputer 4 of the digital audio broadcast receiving apparatus of the present embodiment configured as described above will be described below with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. As a setting condition, an example in which the following two timings are set in combination will be shown. Specifically, when the music is listened to for a certain time (n minutes, where n is a natural number) at the first timing described above, the current music information is recorded in the storage device 5, and the new music is recorded at the third timing. Is changed to, the immediately preceding music information is recorded in the storage device 5.

  In FIG. 3, when the voice additional information is acquired in step S1, specifically, when the microcomputer 4 recognizes that the voice additional information has been acquired, the operation of the main flowchart shown in steps S1 to S12 starts. In step S2, it is determined whether or not the acquired additional sound information is different from “previously acquired”. More specifically, the microcomputer 4 determines whether there is information that matches the previously stored audio additional information stored in the storage device 5. When it is determined that the additional sound information acquired in step S2 is different from the “previously acquired” (another song), the process proceeds to step S3. If it is determined that the additional sound information acquired in step S2 is the same as the “previously acquired information” (the music has not changed), the process proceeds to step S9.

  First, a process when the acquired audio additional information is different from “last acquired” (another song) will be described. In step 3, “check for recording after listening for a certain period of time” is not performed. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 sets the flag of “check for recording when asked for a certain period of time” in the storage device 5 to a state where it is not checked. In step S4, it is determined whether or not the previously acquired additional sound information has been added to the end of the song information list. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 determines whether or not the previously acquired audio additional information matches that it is added to the end of the song information list stored in the storage device 5. The song information list is, for example, list information in the form of a list of audio additional information shown in FIG.

  If it is determined in step S4 that the previously acquired audio additional information has been added to the end of the song information list, the process proceeds to step S8. If it is determined that the previously acquired audio additional information has not been added to the tail of the song information list, the process proceeds to step S5. In step S5, it is determined whether or not the number of music information lists is equal to or greater than the maximum number of records. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 determines whether or not the number of records in the song information list stored in the storage device 5 is equal to or greater than a preset maximum number of records. When the number of music information lists is equal to or greater than the maximum number of records, the process proceeds to step S6. If the number of pieces of the song information list is not equal to or greater than the maximum number of records, the process proceeds to step S7.

  If the number of records in the song information list is equal to or greater than the maximum number of records in step S6, the oldest data is deleted from the song information list. Specifically, when the number of records in the song information list stored in the storage device 5 is equal to or greater than the preset maximum number of records, the microcomputer 4 stores the oldest data recorded first in the storage device 5. The recorded music information list is deleted, and the number of recorded music information lists is set to the maximum number of recorded records-1. If the number of records in the song information list is not equal to or greater than the maximum number of records in step S7, the previous audio additional information is recorded in the song information list. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 records the previous audio additional information at the end of the song information list stored in the storage device 5. In step S8, the currently acquired audio additional information is stored as “last acquired”. More specifically, the microcomputer 4 stores the currently acquired audio additional information in the “last acquired” area of the storage device 5 as previously acquired. And it progresses to step S12 mentioned later.

  Next, a process when the acquired audio additional information is the same as the “previous acquisition” (the music has not changed) will be described. In step S9 shown in FIG. 4, it is determined whether or not “check to record when asked for a certain period of time” has been performed. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 determines whether or not the “check for recording after hearing for a certain period of time” flag in the storage device 5 is checked. If “check to record when asked for a certain time” is performed in step S9, the process proceeds to step S12. In step S9, if “check to record after listening for a certain time” is not performed, the process proceeds to step S10. In step S10, when the “check to record after listening for a certain period of time” is not performed, it is determined whether or not the remaining time of the currently acquired song is n minutes or more. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 determines whether or not the time obtained by subtracting the current song acquisition time from the time of the song in the audio additional information of the currently acquired song is n minutes or more. In step S11, it is assumed that a timer started after n minutes is set and "check to record when listening for a certain time" is performed. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 sets a built-in timer so as to be started after n minutes, and performs processing for recording the audio additional information in the storage device 5 when the audio signal and the audio additional information are received for a predetermined time. Treat as a thing. In step S12, the process waits until the next additional audio information is acquired. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 is kept in a wait state until it recognizes that the additional audio information has been received. This is the end of the operation of the main flowchart.

  Next, the timer process will be described using steps S20 to S24 shown in FIG. In step S20, when the timer is started after n minutes, specifically, when the microcomputer 4 recognizes that the built-in timer is started after n minutes, the timer processing flowchart shown in steps S20 to S24. Starts.

  In step S21, it is determined whether or not the previously acquired audio additional information has been added to the end of the song information list. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 determines whether or not the previously-added audio additional information matches the one added to the tail of the song information list stored in the storage device 5. The song information list is, for example, list information in the form of a list of audio additional information shown in FIG.

  If it is determined in step S21 that the audio additional information acquired last time has been added to the tail of the song information list, the process proceeds to step S25. If it is determined that the previously acquired audio additional information has not been added to the end of the song information list, the process proceeds to step S22. In step S22, it is determined whether or not the number of music information lists is equal to or greater than the maximum number of records. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 determines whether or not the number of records in the song information list stored in the storage device 5 is equal to or greater than a preset maximum number of records. When the number of music information lists is equal to or greater than the maximum number of records, the process proceeds to step S23. If the number of pieces of music information list is not equal to or greater than the maximum number of records, the process proceeds to step S24.

  If the number of records in the song information list is equal to or greater than the maximum number of records in step S23, the oldest data is deleted from the song information list. Specifically, when the number of records in the song information list stored in the storage device 5 is equal to or greater than the preset maximum number of records, the microcomputer 4 stores the oldest data recorded first in the storage device 5. The recorded music information list is deleted, and the number of recorded music information lists is set to the maximum number of recorded records-1. In step S24, the currently acquired audio additional information is recorded in the song information list. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 records the current audio additional information at the end of the song information list recorded in the storage device 5. In step S25, the timer process ends. Specifically, the microcomputer 4 stops the process due to the timer activation. This is the end of the timer processing operation.

  According to the digital audio broadcast receiving apparatus of the present embodiment described above, a list of music information broadcast in the past just by receiving is displayed on the screen display device 7, so that the user can store the music information.
