    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To record a program being currently watched with easy operation to improve the operability for a user by causing a recorder to start the recording operation of the program being currently watched at the time of selecting a recording selection part in a program explanation picture on a monitor and automatically stopping the recording operation at the time of the end of this program. SOLUTION: When the program explanation is instructed by an operation input part 5, a program information extraction part 44 extracts a program information signal IE from program data PD multiplexed on a reception signal RS and superimposes it on the program picture of a monitor device 4 to display a semitransparent program explanation picture. When an off timer button in the program explanation picture is designated, an internal control computer 42 inquires a tuning part 40 and the program information extraction part 44 to enter into the state waiting for the end of the program. If a receiver 2 and a recorder 301 are interlocked, the recorder 301 is started at the time of off timer designation to start recording of the program being currently watched, and power sources of the receiver 2 and the recorder 301 are turned off at the time of the end of the program.

SOLUTION: At first power is applied, an input select button 12a is depressed and a composite video signal or a RGB video signal is selected. Then, the lighting of an automatic scanning LED 13f is confirmed, when the LED 13f is put out, an automatic scanning button 12d is depressed and then, a multi- picture button 13b is depressed to select whether printing is made in a single picture mode or a multi-picture mode. In the case that the multi-picture mode is selected, data are stored in a memory by depressing a print button 8a. Further, a multi-picture is printed out where 4 pictures are printed out on, e.g. one proper recording paper sheet by depressing a copy button 8b.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To speedily and surely select electronic program guide containing important time information in selecting a program by overlapping guide information displaying adjacent areas by different colors on a translucent program picture background so as to display them. SOLUTION: A screen 101 regulates the area on which electronic program guide is displayed and displays the picture of the program in a translucent state where it is translucently viewed as the background. Electronic program guide information 111-1 to 111-11 on the title of the guided program, the date and a channel number by which the broadcasting is executed are overlapped on the program picture background and they are displayed in the screen area. When the same types of information on the broadcasting dates and the titles are displayed over a large number of lines, a danger that the broadcasting date and the title are erroneously read by making them straddle the different lines exists. The colors of the respective adjacent areas are displayed by the different colors and the same colors are given at every other line. Thus, electronic program guide containing important time information can speedily and surely be grasped at the time of selecting the program.
