Abstract

When stream data is reproduced through an IEEE-1394 high-speed serial bus from a hard-disk apparatus serving as a source, and is transmitted as is to another hard-disk apparatus through the IEEE-1394 bus and recorded thereinto, if the data is transferred with the use of isochronous communication, entry_type is set to an isochronous track and if the data is transferred with the use of isochronous communication, entry_type is set to an asynchronous track. When the stream data is transmitted, a payload size which indicates the size of the steam data is written into a payload information block in order to obtain a bus channel and a bus bandwidth.
