Abstract
A power control section, which turns a video/audio recording apparatus ON or OFF, outputs power control information. A video recording control section, which starts or stops video recording, outputs video recording control information. A signal input section allows moving picture data to be input. Based on the power control information and the video recording control information, an attribute designation section generates attribute information, which is supplied to a recording section. The attribute information contains a program number used for the classification of moving picture files. Any number of moving picture files which may be recorded after the power is turned ON and before the power is turned OFF are assigned with the same program number. The recording section records on a recording medium the attribute information as well as moving picture files representing the moving picture data which has been input via the signal input section. Thus, a file-by-file recording of moving picture data on a recording medium can be achieved in a manner which facilitates the subsequent finding of a desired file.
