Recording system, receiving apparatus and receiving method, recording apparatus and recording method, and program

A recording method for a recording system having a receiving apparatus that receives a content, and a recording apparatus that records the content received by the receiving apparatus, the method comprising the steps of:

• by using the receiving apparatus,
• receiving the content;
• accepting a user's operation instructing to record the received content;
• generating a control signal for controlling a recording operation of the recording apparatus according to the accepted operation;
• and
• supplying the received content and the generated control signal to the recording apparatus;
• and
• by using the recording apparatus,
• acquiring the content and the control signal supplied from the receiving apparatus;
• and
• recording the acquired content according to the acquired control signal.

A receiving apparatus that receives a content, comprising:
