RECORDING AND REPRODUCING DEVICE
First Claim
1. A recording and reproducing device capable of recording and/or reproducing video and/or audio data, comprising:
- (a) a signal processing circuit for processing video and/or audio data;
a drive unit for recording the processed data to a recording medium; and
a power controller for controlling supply of power to the signal processing circuit and drive unit, wherein(b) during power-off state of the recording and reproducing device, the power state of the recording and reproducing device can be controlled to be in either one of a first power-off state and a second power-off state, the second power-off state capable of making the recording and reproducing device start at a higher speed than that of the first power-off state when receiving a power-on instruction,(c) the recording and reproducing device has a first standby mode for controlling the power state to the first power-off state when receiving a power-off instruction, and a second standby mode for controlling the power state to the second power-off state when receiving a power-off instruction, and(d) the power controller makes the second stand-by mode active according to a setting time zone for a predetermined time zone including the setting time zone.

Abstract
A recording and reproducing device (1) in which, when the power is turned off, the state of the power can be controlled to be in either one of a first power-off state and a second power-off state in which the recording and reproduction device (1) can be started faster than in the first power-off state. The recording and reproducing device (1) has a “first standby mode” during which the power state of the device is controlled to the first power-off state when the device receives a power-off instruction, and a “second standby mode” during which the power state of the device is controlled to the second power-off state when the device receives a power-off instruction. A power controller (30) makes, according to a setting time zone, the second standby mode active only for a predetermined time zone including the setting time zone.
