<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To specify a broadcast station or a medium being a source of material/content which are viewed/brought into contact with sufficient determination accuracy even if the same content material/content or similar content material/content are broadcasted from different broadcast stations or media at the same time or similar time. <P>SOLUTION: A viewing channel is determined by similarity of characterized data (S41). When a plurality of channel candidates exist, a channel is determined by a first candidate when a difference of the similarity between the first candidate and a second candidate is a prescribed value or above (S42). When the difference is not more than the prescribed value, the channel is determined by the channel which remote controller information shows (S43). When the remote controller information does not exist, the channel is determined by noticing a delay amount peculiar to the station (S44). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
