A CPU 290 of a recording/reproducing device 200 acquires automatic video recording request information, and generates, based on EPG data previously acquired, new automatic reservation information incorporating basic video recording information with video recording start date and time or video recording finish date and time for contents corresponding to a keyword in the automatic video recording reservation request information and priority information indicating that the priority is "intermediate". When the CPU 290 determines that the video recording time indicated by the reservation information corresponding to a manual video recording reservation incorporated in a video recording reservation list information and that for the new automatic reservation information overlap each other, the CPU 290 deletes the reservation information corresponding to the manual video recording reservation from the video recording reservation list information, and incorporates the new automatic reservation information as reservation information in the video recording list information.
