Abstract (en)

A broadcast receiver includes a transfer start time calculating unit (131) that calculates a time at which to start the transmission of each file to be received in first reception processing, a switching timing determining unit (132) that determines a switching time at which a switchover from second reception processing to the first reception processing is to be made by a second tuner unit (120, 120'), according to the calculated time at which to start the transmission of each file, and a switching control unit (133, 133') that controls the second tuner unit (120, 120') so that it makes a switchover from the second reception processing to the first reception processing according to the determined switching time. When the second tuner unit (120, 120') makes a switchover from the second reception processing to the first reception processing, a file can be received from its beginning.
