A recording device records contents in a plurality of recording media. While the recording device records a content in a recording medium, if a free space of the recording medium runs out, an unrecorded part of the content needs to be recorded in another recording medium. In order to play back all parts of the content, all recording media in which all the parts of the content have been separately recorded are necessary. Particularly, if an internal recording medium included in the recording device has a small space and accordingly a sufficient space is secured by connecting an external removable recording medium to the recording device after the recording has started, parts of the content are separately recorded in the internal recording medium and the external recording medium. As a result, even if the external recording medium is removed from the recording device and is connected to a playback device in order to play back all the parts of the content, it is possible to play back only one part of the content. In order to play back all parts of the content using another playback device, a user needs to edit the separately recorded parts of the content so as to be saved in a single recording medium. In view of this problem, the present invention aims to provide a recording device that controls a recording destination of a content to be recorded such that the content can be recorded in a single recording medium for as long as possible. |
