Abstract
An information recording and reproducing apparatus in which when dubbing of audio/video information has been executed, by storing information showing that the audio/video information has been dubbed into a memory, a hard disk apparatus, or the like in a video camera, when the user intends to erroneously delete the audio/video information which is not dubbed yet, the user is notified that the audio/video information is not dubbed yet. According to such an apparatus, since such a situation that the user erroneously deletes the non-dubbed audio/video information by misunderstanding that the audio/video information has already been dubbed can be avoided, use efficiency can be improved for the user.
