Abstract

A recording/reproducing apparatus which can easily select with a simple operation a plurality of image information relevant with each other.

When one desired program is selected from a program list, the data of a recording channel, a recording start time and a recording day of the week are read out, and programs with the same channel number and the recording start time are selected from other remaining programs. In case a day of the week is designated, programs with the same day of the week are selected. Finally, such selected programs are numbered in order starting from an old date and then reproduced in numeric order.

Claims

1. A recording/reproducing apparatus comprising a random access recording medium for recording image information, a selection means for selecting image information relevant to selected image information in case of one image information being selected from a plurality of recorded image information, and an output means for outputting said selected image information for a user'"'"'s confirmation.

2. A recording/reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 1, wherein said output means outputs said selected image information in order according to a predetermined rule.

3. A recording/reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 or claim 2, wherein said output means is a reproduction means for reproducing selected image information in order.

6. A recording/reproducing apparatus as claimed in claims 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, wherein said image information include respective information such as a recording date, a recording day, recording start time, and data source information, and wherein said selection means selects image information consistent with said recording start time of said selected image information and said data source information.

7. A recording/reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 6, wherein said selection means narrows down said selected image information on the basis of a day of the week.

9. A recording/reproducing apparatus as claimed in claims 2, 5 or 8, wherein said predetermined rile is such that each of a date and a recording start time at the time of recording is listed in order starting from old one.

4. A recording/reproducing apparatus comprising a random access recording medium for recording image information, a display means for displaying a list of said image information, and a selection means for selecting image information containing information corresponding to at least a part of the information contained in the selected image information in case of one image information being selected from a plurality of displayed image information, said display means displaying said selected image information in a recognizable manner.

5. A recording/reproducing apparatus as claimed in claim 4, wherein said display means displays said selected image information in order according to a predetermined rule.

8. A recording/reproducing apparatus comprising a random access recording medium for recording image information including identification information comprised of a plurality of items, a display means for displaying a list of said image information, a reproduction means for reproducing said image information, a selection means for selecting image information containing identification information corresponding to at least one item of the selected identification information in case of one identification information being selected from a plurality of displayed identification information, said reproduction means reproducing selected image information in order according to a predetermined rule.
