Abstract
A recorded broadcast program including CM portions is reproduced with CM portions skipped. When an instruction to execute a fast forward operation is entered at the beginning of CM portion and an instruction to execute a reproducing operation is entered at the termination of CM portion while the recorded broadcast program data including CM data is read out and reproduced from a recording unit, CPUstores in the recording unita time length obtained by subtracting a time at which the instruction to execute a fast forward operation is entered from a time at which the instruction to execute a reproducing operation is entered, an image which is being reproduced at the time at which the instruction to execute a fast forward operation is entered, and a title of the image. CPUfurther compares an image which is being reproduced with the image stored in the recording unit, and skips a reading position on the recording unitbased on the time length stored in the recording unit, when the compared images coincide with each other.
