no. 2 approach

[0174] Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 8 . The remote controller 50b according to the second embodiment includes a power button 60 for transmitting an input signal related to a power switch of the TV for displaying output data of the digital recording / reproducing apparatus 10, and a program data reproduction button for reproducing program data 80. This aspect is exactly the same as that of the first embodiment described above. However, the layout of the day mark and the time mark of the program data reproduction button 80 and the display mechanism of the time mark are different from those of the first embodiment.

[0175] That is, the program data reproduction button 80 includes: a left-right rotatable outer dial 81 (first operation part) on which day marks from Sunday to Saturday are arranged on a disk-shaped disk surface; and the outer dial 81 The inner peripheral dial 82, which is smaller than the outer diameter ...

no. 3 approach

[0180] Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 9 . The remote controller 50c according to the third embodiment includes, in addition to the buttons for realizing the functions of the remote controllers 50 and 50b according to the first and second embodiments, a plurality of menu buttons 65, and a channel switching button for past time (past switching) 92 , a previous list button 93 , a next list button 94 and a recommendation button 95 .

[0181] (Menu button)

[0182] The menu button 65 is composed of the menu button 1 to the menu button 4 which can be used for personal identification. By assigning a plurality of users using the digital recording / reproducing apparatus 10 to each menu button, a signal that can directly access the top menu screen for selecting program data can be transmitted by pressing the menu button.

[0183] A user is assigned to the menu data, and program data preferred by the user is registered in advan...

no. 4 approach

[0197] Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 10 . Unlike the remote controllers of the first to third embodiments, the remote controller 50d according to the fourth embodiment is an input device that can achieve various functions with the minimum required number of buttons.

[0198] a1 and a3 are evaluation buttons when evaluating program data and program columns, etc. The "circle button" of a1 is a button that is pressed when the evaluation is good, and the "cross button" of a3 is pressed when the evaluation is poor. The "recommend button" of a2 has a function for transmitting the program ID, program title, broadcast date and time, etc. of the program to be recommended that you view and listen to in a way that other users can also watch and listen, and is equivalent to the above-mentioned recommendation button 95 . Function.

[0199] b1 is a "select button" and is used, for example, when multiple selections are made on pr...

Abstract

There is provided a remote controller facilitating the operation concerning reproduction of recorded program data and having a user-friendly function. The remote controller (50) transmits an operation signal of a digital recording / reproducing device (10) which has recorded television programs. The remote controller (50) includes a power button (60) for turning on / off power of a TV for displaying the output data of the digital recording / reproducing device (10) and a reproduction button (80) for reproducing program data. The reproduction button includes: a first operation unit (81) which has time marks from 1 o'clock to 24 o'clock and can be rotated rightward and leftward; a second operation unit (82) which is formed on the first operation unit (81) with a smaller size than the outer diameter of the first operation unit (81),has time marks from Sunday to Saturday and can be rotated rightward and leftward; and a reproduction decision unit (83) formed on the second operation unit (82) with a smaller size than the outer diameter of the second operation unit (82) for deciding the day-of-week mark and the time mark specified by the first operation unit (81) and the second operation unit (82).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a remote controller capable of remotely operating a digital recording and reproducing apparatus, and more particularly, to a technique for improving the convenience in viewing and listening of recorded program data. Background technique [0002] In recent years, a hard disk recorder that records program data on a storage medium such as a hard disk drive has become widespread as a recording means for television program data (hereinafter referred to as program data) such as ground waves and satellite broadcasting. As a recording medium of program data, digital recording / reproducing apparatuses that convert analog data into digital data and record them have become mainstream, starting from magnetic tapes that record analog data. [0003] Hard disk recorders equipped with EPG or iEPG (hereinafter referred to as electronic program guide) are popular with users seeking convenience because they can perform reserved recording w...
