In a control unit, in a case where a person authentication unit cannot detect a face image from an image picked up by a camera unit in a predetermined time or more, reproducing situation data including person specifying information stored in an internal memory at the time thereof, a recording-medium identifying code of an on-reproducing recording medium, and a reproducing position address at the time of inputting the personal information are stored in the reproducing situation storage unit. After that, if the person authentication unit detects again the face image form the image picked up by the camera unit and, as a result of the authentication, if it is determined based on features of the face image that the person is the same as the original person, the reproducing operation starts from the reproducing position address stored in the reproducing situation storage unit.
