Information processor, method thereof, program for executing the method, recording medium storing the program and information storage
First Claim
1. An information processor that controls a process for storing information in a storing device, comprising:
- a request-information recognizer that recognizes request information for requesting the information to be stored in the storing device;
a detail-information recognizer that recognizes detail information about detail of the information to be stored containing data-size information about information quantity of the information;
a storage-area recognizer that recognizes a free space of a storage area of the storing device; and
a storage controller that controls a process for storing the information in the storing device based on the data-size information of the information to be stored and the free space of the storage area upon recognizing a request for storing a plurality of the information based on request information.

Abstract
A storing-reproducing unit 200 recognizes a free space of a contents storage area by a storage-area-administrating device, sets a recording timing duration based on the recognized free space of the contents storage area, and selects a schedule information of a contents to be recorded from recording schedule list information. Hence, frequency of storing the contents in the HDD 270 can be reduced, thereby avoiding that the contents which has not yet watched is erased by self-erasing, so that the contents can be effectively recorded. Therefore, a user can secure flexibility in time in watching the contents.
