Abstract

The present invention relates to recording and reproducing methods, recording and reproducing apparatuses, and a recording medium. In conventional techniques, even when recorded program contents are 3D-(stereoscopic view)-corresponding contents or non-3D-corresponding contents, there has been no means to easily distinguish the difference therebetween. Furthermore, there has been a problem that a virtual play list in which 3D contents and non-3D contents are mixed is unintentionally generated. In the present invention, the above described problems are solved by recording a 3D flag in a play list file. Furthermore, upon generation of a virtual play list, the set value of the recorded 3D flag is obtained, and whether 3D contents and non-3D contents are mixed or not is checked, thereby solving the problems.
