ABSTRACT:
In a reproducing apparatus having the capability of reproducing data in both directions from a recording medium in the form of a tape, when a program recorded on the recording medium in the form of a tape is accessed in a high speed mode, a fast forward tape travel operation or a fast reverse tape travel operation is performed while monitoring the program number recorded in the area opposite to the current reproducing position, and the searching speed is controlled when the searching position reaches a location near a reverse position so that the searching position does not go beyond the reverse position. A recording apparatus operates to record a program number on a recording medium in the form of a tape on the basis of the program number which was recorded at the end of the previous recording operation so that a correct value is given as the program number to the current recording operation.
