There is provided a system for recording and/or reproduction of
broadcasting programs permits the facilitation of selection and
management of recorded videos in the manner of following the operations
of general AV equipment such as televisions and video decks, in which
virtual channels are assigned according to categories defined by a user,
and programs corresponding to the categories are recorded into the
virtual channels, and since the recorded programs are set in array on a
time base for simultaneous reproduction on each virtual channel, the user
may happen to watch various recorded programs only by switching over the
channels from one to another or continuing to reproduce recorded programs
in a single channel after application of power at any time, which results
in quite passive style only sufficient for the user to watch the recorded
programs.
