Abstract: According to one embodiment, a digital broadcast receiving/recording/reproducing apparatus has a receiving module which receives a broadcast signal of a program that is set to be recorded, a processing module which converts the broadcast signal received by the receiving module into digital picture and sound program data, a memory which records copy control information acquired from the broadcast signal received by the receiving module, a recording control module which encrypts the program data converted by the processing module and records the encrypted program data in a specified recording device, and a memory control module which encrypts the copy control information recorded in the memory and records the encrypted copy control information in the specified recording device and deletes the copy control information recorded in the memory after termination of the recording of the encrypted copy control information.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a reproduction apparatus comprises a determination module configured to determine whether a content stored in storage has been reproduced or not, a scheduling module configured to creates a reproduction schedule of a content which is determined as not having been reproduced, a reading module configured to read the content determined as not having been reproduced from the storage in accordance with the reproduction schedule, a channel selection module configured to select a channel, and a reproduction module configured to reproduce the content which the reading module is reading when the channel selection module selects a first channel.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a disk recorder management apparatus includes: a connection part to which a disk recorder is connected; an initial connection judging unit judging whether or not the disk recorder is connected to the connection part for the first time; and a recording control unit making the disk recorder record registration information indicating a correspondence between the disk recorder management apparatus and the disk recorder when it is judged by the initial connection judging unit that the disk recorder is connected for the first time.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a recorder comprises: a first area generation unit configured to generate a first recording area used for recording first data in the storage medium; a second area generation unit configured to generate a second recording area in the storage medium, the second recording area used for repeatedly recording in an overwriting manner only second data, the second data being different from the first data and taken as an object of playback for a predetermined period; a management information managing unit configured to record a management information file having management information about first data recorded in the first recording area in the storage medium; and a management information edition unit configured to add management information about the second data into the management information file to allow the second data not to be overwritten, and record the management information into the storage medium.

Abstract: The inventive variety of shiitake mushroom plant named ‘FFT-52’ is morphologically characterized by a greater pileus diameter and a greater pileus thickness. Further, ‘FFT-52’ ensures a higher crop yield and an easier harvesting operation because it can be easily harvested manually without the use of a harvesting device. In addition, ‘FFT-52’ is highly resistant to a high-temperature load.
