The present invention provides an information processing apparatus that recognizes each individual user and automatically reproduces the program recorded by the user if the video recorder is shared by a plurality of users. The information processing apparatus includes a recording/reproduction unit that records a program produced by using video and audio signals to a recording medium contained in and/or removably fitted to the apparatus and reproduces and displays it on a display apparatus, an identification processing unit that recognizes and identifies the individual user reproducing and viewing the program recorded on the recording medium, and a bookmark information processing unit that associates each user with bookmark information by using user identification information of the user identified by the identification processing unit and program information obtained by the recording/reproduction unit, holding the bookmark information associated with each user and controls the operation of reproducing a program by the recording/reproduction unit by using the bookmark information associated with each user.
