Abstract

An AV stream, as an entity of contents, is managed by ClipInformation. The reproduction of the AV stream is managed by PlayList. The attribute information of the AV stream is recorded in the ClipInformation, whereby the attribute information may include address information corresponding to the discontinuous point in the AV stream, information correlating the time information in the AV stream and the address information, and the time information corresponding to a characteristic picture in the AV stream. This enables a preset mark to be retrieved promptly.
