Portable terminal apparatus, computer-readable recording medium, and computer data signal

A portable terminal apparatus for recording broadcast data received, comprising:

• a determination unit which determines whether a receiving condition of broadcast data is normal or not, while the broadcast data is recorded;
• a receiving condition information storage unit which stores information indicating the receiving condition, according to a result of determination by the determination unit;
• a recording condition information obtaining unit which obtains information indicating a recording condition of the broadcast data recorded, based on the information indicating the receiving condition stored in the receiving condition information storage unit;
• and
• a control unit which controls whether or not to store the recorded broadcast data, according to the information indicating the recording condition obtained by the recording condition information obtaining unit.

A portable terminal apparatus, comprising:

• a receiving unit which receives broadcast data, in which time information is inserted at intervals of a predetermined length;
• a broadcast data recording unit which records the broadcast data received by the receiving unit;
• a time information extracting unit which extracts the time information from the broadcast data received by the receiving unit;
• a discontinuous portion specifying unit which specifies a portion where the time information is not continuous at the intervals of the predetermined length, from a time series of the time information extracted by the time information (extracting unit;
• and
• an abnormally recorded portion output unit which outputs information indicating the portion specified by the discontinuous portion specifying unit, as information indicating an abnormally recorded portion in the broadcast data recorded by the broadcast data recording unit.
