PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, COMPUTER-PROGRAM STORAGE MEDIUM

摘要

A portable information terminal apparatus generates a first signal, based on the user's operation, that causes a recording/reproducing apparatus to acquire program information. A second signal based on the user's operation, causes the recording/reproducing apparatus to display the acquired program information. A third signal based on the user's operation causes the recording/reproducing apparatus to preset the program for unattended recording. A fourth signal based on the user's operation causes the recording/reproducing apparatus to convert the recorded program to video data in a predetermined file format.
