FIG. 1 is a schematic view illustrating a content recording control service for a buddy, according to an exemplary embodiment. Referring toFIG. 1 , the content recording control service includes amanagement server 110 on a network, astreaming server 140, a recording apparatus on a network 130, and a local recording apparatus 120. - The recording apparatus on the network 130 is a network personal video recorder (NPVR) that records a broadcasting program in a digital storage medium disposed in a server on the network. The local recording apparatus 120 is a local personal video recorder (PVR) that records a broadcasting program in a local digital storage medium. The recording apparatus 130 and the local recording apparatus 120 may be different apparatuses.
- The
management server 110 controls the local recording apparatus 120 and the recording apparatus on the network 130 in order to record contents for a buddy. Thestreaming server 140 provides a digital broadcasting program in real time. Hereinafter, operations of the content recording control service for a buddy according to an exemplary embodiment will be described below with reference toFIG. 1 . - Referring to
FIG. 1 , while a first user A 150 is watching a broadcasting program provided by the streaming server 140 (operation 171), the first user A 150 may receive a request to record a specific channel that is presently on air from a buddy (i.e., a second user B) 160. Accordingly, the first user A 150 sends at least one of desired content information, buddy information, content password information pertaining to the buddy 160 to themanagement server 110, etc. (operation 172). - The
management server 110 determines whether the local recording apparatus 120 of the buddy 160 is in a recording state (e.g., whether the local recording apparatus 120 of the buddy is powered on) (operation 173). - When the local recording apparatus 120 of the buddy 160 is in the recording state, the
