Abstract
The remaining capacity of a recording medium is calculated when picture recording reservation is made so as to permit the user to easily understand the reservation status and whether the reservation recording is possible or not. An apparatus of this invention can record and reproduce compressed video information on a contained hard disk in a format of the same DVD standard and can record and reproduce compressed video information on a removable DVD. Further, it is possible to specify a disk and make picture recording reservation and a reservation table thereof is stored in a memory. Then, picture recording reservation time information and the remaining capacity of the disk are calculated and whether or not reservation picture recording can be made can be displayed in a list form.
