To easily select a channel that is frequently viewed by an operator by storing a channel selection history of the operator, comparing the channel selection history with a reference value and generating a program list on the basis of the comparison result so as to automatically generate an exclusive button on the program list.

An input output information control section 100 records program addition information in information received from an information synthesis section 111 to an input information storage section 114 via a storage section control means 120. A channel selection history storage means 121 acquires and stores a history obtained when an operator selects a channel via an external signal input section 112. A program list generating means 123 generates a program list on the basis of the program addition information stored in the input information storage section 114 and comparison information calculated by a history information comparison means and outputs the program list to an information output section 113. Thus, the program list with an exclusive channel selection button for a channel most frequently viewed by the operator is generated and displayed.
