Digital multimedia broadcasting receiver for preset recording and method thereof
First Claim
1. A method for preset-recording a song provided through a music channel by using Present and Follow (P/F) information in a digital multimedia broadcasting receiver, the method comprising the steps of:
- transmitting, by a central processing unit, a control signal to instruct a multimedia module that a preset recording for a next song has been set;
measuring, by a timer included in the multimedia module, a time period elapsed from a first time point at which P/F information is updated while a current song is played, when recording is preset, and calculating a first interval time by subtracting the first time point from an ending time of the currently-played song;
starting, by a multimedia controller included in the multimedia module, recording of a next-played song, when the time period measured from the first time point reaches the first calculated interval time;
measuring, by the timer, a time period elapsed from a second time point at which P/F information is updated during preset recording, and calculating a second interval time by subtracting the second time point from an ending time of the song being preset recorded; and
ending, by the multimedia controller, recording of the song being preset-recorded, when the time period measured from the second time point reaches the second calculated interval time.

15. A digital multimedia broadcasting receiver for preset-recording a song provided through a music channel by using Present and Follow (P/F) information, the digital multimedia broadcasting receiver comprising:
-
a multimedia module including a timer and a multimedia controller; a central processing unit for transmitting a control signal to instruct the multimedia module that a preset recording for a next song has been set; the timer for measuring a first time period elapsed from a first time point at which P/F information is updated while a current song is played, when preset recording is set, and measuring a second time period elapsed from a second time point at which P/F information is updated during preset recording; and the multimedia controller for starting recording a next-played song, when the first time period measured from the first time point reaches a first interval time obtained by subtracting the first time point from an ending time of the currently-played song when the preset recording is set, and ending recording of the song being recorded, when the second time period measured from the second time point reaches a second interval time obtained by subtracting the second time point from an ending time of the song being recorded. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28)
