    Abstract: An apparatus information acquisition unit 444 acquires information representative of a limitation relating to viewing or recording of a broadcasting program in regard to each of a plurality of recording apparatus. An operation detection unit 44 accepts a user operation which designates a recording target program. When the user operation is accepted, a recording apparatus selection unit 446 determines a priority of each recording apparatus in response to the limitation relating to viewing or recording of a broadcasting program in each recording apparatus, and selects a recording apparatus which has the highest priority as a recording apparatus which is to record the recording target program.

    Abstract: An operation button 22 carries out an operation of an electronic apparatus 10 through a key input. A touch panel 50 is a display area of the electronic apparatus 10 and carries out an operation of the electronic apparatus 10 through a touch operation. A display controlling unit 100 displays, in response to the operation of at least one of the operation button 22 and the touch panel 50, a menu including at least one choice relating to the operation of the electronic apparatus 10 on a display device. Here, the display controlling unit 100 displays a menu to be displayed in response to the operation of the operation button 22 and a menu to be displayed in response to the operation of the touch panel 50 such that the menus include at least one common choice and besides the common choice is disposed in layouts different from each other.

    Abstract: A program information acquisition unit 60 acquires program information individually broadcasted in a plurality of channels. An apparatus information acquisition unit 444 acquires, from a tuner, limitation information indicative of a limitation to channels which can be viewed by a user. A decision unit 449 decides, in response to the limitation information, whether each of the plural channels is a viewing-unlimited channel whose viewing by the user is not limited or a viewing-limited channel whose viewing by the user is limited. A program table displaying unit 88 causes a program table, in which program information of the plural channels is concentrated, to be displayed, and causes program information of the viewing-unlimited channel and program information of the viewing-limited channel to be displayed in forms different from each other in the program table.

    Abstract: A program information acquisition unit 60 acquires program information of each of a plurality of channels over a plurality of broadcasting types, among which a transmitting form of a broadcasting signal is different. A program table displaying unit 88 causes a program table, in which program information of the plurality of channels is juxtaposed in a classified state for each channel, to be displayed. The program table displaying unit 88 causes both of program information of channels belonging to a first broadcasting type and program information of channels belonging to a second broadcasting type to be displayed in a juxtaposed relationship in the same program table.
