If the current time is 10:00, when the user manipulates a recording switch (11) during a time shift operation for reproducing video data of a certain program at 9:30, retroactive by 30 minutes, a control unit (10) detects the manipulation on the recording switch during the time shift operation, and previously reserves in a recording region (3b) a transfer region (3c) to which recording data in a buffer region (3a) can be transferred by a portion corresponding to 30 minutes from the retroacted time, 9:30, to 10:00. Writing section (4) is controlled to start recording video data of the program from the current time 10:00 in the recording region (3b) consecutively to the transfer region (3c). After recording the data in the recording region (3b) from 10:00, a portion of recording data in the buffer region (3a) corresponding to 30 minutes from 9:30 to 10:00 is transferred back to the transfer region (3c). <IMAGE>
