Abstract
An in-vehicle recording/reproduction device () records in a recording device a program which the user starts watching, and reads and reproduces the data when watching is permitted, such as, for example, when a vehicle is stopped. The in-vehicle recording/reproduction device () transmits recording information about recording, such as a program, a time, and the like, to an in-home recording/reproduction device (). The in-home recording/reproduction device () records the same program as that recorded by the in-vehicle recording/reproduction device () based on the recording information. The in-vehicle recording/reproduction device () transmits to the in-home recording/reproduction device () reproduction information indicating which scene was last reproduced in the in-vehicle recording/reproduction device (). The in-home recording/reproduction device () performs reproduction based on the reproduction information. Thereby, it is possible to watch the rest of the program which was watched in the vehicle, at home without missing a scene.
