Abstract: A recording and reproducing device reproduces content management information from a recording medium and inputs the content management information to a control unit via a recording and reproducing processing unit. An image generation unit generates a menu screen using content information in the management information extracted by the control unit, and outputs the menu screen via a display processing unit. When content is to be dubbed by a user, the content dubbing destination and the preset time to dub the content are entered to the control unit via an operation unit, and these entries are held in a schedule management unit.
