The control unit 111 controls the plurality of tuner units 101 and the PVR unit 113 to operate even when the power is off. The control unit 108 controls the overall system and performs overall functions of each configuration of the broadcast receiving apparatus 100 according to a user input transmitted from the input unit 109.

The controller 111 receives the PVR reproduction request from the input unit 109 and transmits the PVR reproduction request to the PVR unit 113 after the power is turned on. And outputs the requested broadcast stream provided from the PVR unit 113 to the connected display device 107. At this time, the controller 111 has a separate memory (not shown), and can store channel information and data information in the memory (not shown). The channel information may be a broadcast schedule table (EPG).

The control unit 111 may configure a virtual channel such as a drama channel or a sports channel on the basis of the stored content so that the broadcast program broadcasted at the same time is stored in the internal storage,

The PVR unit 113 stores the respective broadcast streams tuned by the plurality of tuner units 101 in the storage medium 115. [ At this time, it can be transcoded and stored as a codec with good compression efficiency.

When the PVR playback request is received from the input unit 109, the PVR unit 113 extracts the requested broadcast stream from the storage medium 115.

The PVR unit 113 periodically monitors the remaining storage space of the storage medium 115, and if there is no remaining storage space, the PVR unit 113 can delete a predetermined capacity of the pre-stored broadcast streams.

The PVR unit 113 may manage the storage medium 115 in such a manner that the data stored first is deleted at a predetermined time interval and new data is stored at a predetermined time interval.
