Abstract

An information storing medium storing coded data of a content in segment units stores data including information of a horizontal video size, a vertical video size, a video depth, a maximum video data size in data segments, and a maximum audio data size in data segments as header information corresponding to the content. The stored data also includes information of the first frame number within a data segment, the number of frames within the data segment, and the address of each delimiter relative to the start of the data as segment information. A content reproducing apparatus can perform FIFO setting, data reading, and reproduction processing applying these pieces of information in a cache.
