Next, the operation of the device having the above configuration will be described.

Normally, the timer 32 continuously counts the current time regardless of the on / off state of the television.

On the other hand, when the user selects the reserved recording setting key (not shown) provided in the remote control device 8, the control unit 36 first reads out the time data counted by the timer 32 to determine the current time. By driving the OSD generating unit 34 based on this, for example, as illustrated in FIG. 2, a predetermined OSD subtitle for guiding a reserved recording execution channel and a recording execution time input is output.

Subsequently, when the user who completes the input of the date and time to execute the scheduled recording and the channel scheduled for recording selects the confirmation key (not shown) provided in the remote controller 8, the control unit 36 inputs by the user. By registering the set data in the reserved recording data storage unit 31, the recording reservation operation for the user setting channel is terminated.

On the other hand, the controller 36 compares the present time counted by the timer 32 with the time data registered in the reserved recording data storage 31 every minute, and the present time counted by the timer 32 is determined. It is checked whether or not it matches the time set in the reserved recording data storage unit 31.

When the two time data coincide, the control unit 36 reads out the recording reservation channel information registered in the reservation recording data storage unit 31 as in the case of executing the normal reservation recording function and based on the second time data, based on the second time data. By controlling the tuner 5, the corresponding channel is tuned, and the A / V switching unit 11 is controlled to switch to record the reserved program through the deck 19. In addition to recording the corresponding program, the recording time is counted through the timer 32.

On the other hand, when the recording is stopped by an unexpected third party during the recording as described above or when the scheduled recording stop time comes, the control unit 36 controls the deck driving unit 18 to stop the recording operation through the deck. At this time, the stopped time is stored in the data storage unit 37.

The control unit 36 compares the recording start time with the recording stop time using the recording time calculation unit 33 to calculate the recorded time and stores the result in the data storage unit 37.

Then, when the power is turned on through the remote control device 8 by the user who is out of the house, the control unit 36 reads the recording result data stored in the data storage unit 37 to open the OSD generator 34. Through the OSD pattern signal, the CRT 17 is outputted as an OSD subtitle on the screen as shown in FIG. 4.

Therefore, the user can easily recognize the recording result of the reserved program.

On the other hand, the user confirming the recording result is to input a clear button (not shown) provided in the remote control device 8 to clear the result data, then the control unit 36 is stored in the data storage unit 37 Clears the recording result data.

That is, according to the above embodiment, the recording result of the reserved recording program is outputted on the CRT screen as the OSD subtitle so that the recording status can be easily grasped.

In addition, this invention is not limited to the said Example, It can variously deform and implement within the range which does not deviate from the technical summary of this invention.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to realize a televideo having a reservation recording result display function capable of outputting a recording result of a program having a recording reservation setting on a television screen.
