IMAGE RECORDER, IMAGE RECORDIN METHOD AND RECORDING MEDIUM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image recorder that discriminates whether or not reserved programs can simultaneously be recorded when the reservation of a program going to be recorded on a hard disk results in causing temporal double-booking and that can set a program to be recorded with priority when the hard disk cannot record the programs at the same time. SOLUTION: A system controller 80 discriminates whether or not a time zone of a video recording reservation program made by an operation entry section 110 is overlapped with a time zone of other program having already been reserved and its video recording reservation setting information has been stored in a RAM 84, and also discriminates whether or not both the programs can simultaneously be recorded on the basis of the number of input systems of the programs and the system's performance of coding processing, multiplexing processing and recording processing when the time zone of both the programs is overlapped. Priority onto the video recording reservation setting is set when the simultaneous recoding is disabled.
