ABSTRACT:
A microcomputer18obtains a variable RRT from a broadcast signal and stores, in a recording medium, the variable RRT in association with a physical channel; sets a viewing restriction flag for an item in the variable RRT based on an operation input from a user; applies viewing restriction to the broadcast signal when rating information indicates the level at which the viewing restriction flag has been set in the variable RRT; and, when a logical channel is not associated with the selected physical channel, tunes, as an alternative channel, a physical channel with which a logical channel has been associated in the channel map of the other tuner, and associates a variable RRT associated with the alternative channel, with the selected physical channel.
