Abstract
Information about a base position at which a cursor operation has been started is stored in a storage section (). When an operation of moving the cursor is accepted from a remote controller (), the information about the base position of the cursor is acquired from the storage section (), and is compared with information about the position to which the cursor has been moved, whereby it is determined that the cursor has returned to the base position. In this case, an operation sound generation section () acquires an operation sound different from the normal one from an operation sound ROM (), and a sound signal superimposing section () superimposes the different operation sound onto a sound signal which is to be outputted from a speaker (). Thus, a user can easily recognize that the cursor has returned to the base position.
