Abstract
Disclosed herein is an information processing apparatus for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints, the information processing apparatus including: a creation section configured to create second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content; and a recording control section configured to exercise control in order to record the second navigation data created by the creation section as meta data to a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium.
Claims12
An information processing apparatus for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- creation means for creating second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content;
- and
- recording control means for exercising control in order to record the second navigation data created by the creation means as meta data to a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium.
An information processing method for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints, the information processing method comprising the steps of:
- causing an information processing apparatus to create second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content;
- and
- causing the information processing apparatus to exercise control in order to record the created second navigation data as meta data to a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium.
A program for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints, the program causing a computer to execute a procedure comprising the steps of:
- creating second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content;
- and
- exercising control in order to record the created second navigation data as meta data to a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium.
An information processing apparatus for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints and when second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content is recorded on a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- creation means for creating third navigation data by synthesizing the first navigation data and the second navigation data;
- and
- reproduction means for reproducing the content in accordance with the third navigation data created by the creation means.
An information processing method for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints and when second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content is recorded on a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium, the information processing method comprising the steps of:
- causing an information processing apparatus to create third navigation data by synthesizing the first navigation data and the second navigation data;
- and
- causing the information processing apparatus to reproduce the content in accordance with the created third navigation data.
A program for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints and when second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content is recorded on a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium, the program causing a computer to execute a procedure comprising the steps of:
- creating third navigation data by synthesizing the first navigation data and the second navigation data;
- and
- reproducing the content in accordance with the created third navigation data.
An information processing apparatus for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a creation section configured to create second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content;
- and
- a recording control section configured to exercise control in order to record the second navigation data created by the creation section as meta data to a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium.
An information processing apparatus for use when a content and first navigation data defining a first reproduction pattern for the content are recorded on a first recording medium subject to edit constraints and when second navigation data defining a second reproduction pattern for the content is recorded on a second recording medium separate from the first recording medium, the information processing apparatus comprising:
- a creation section configured to create third navigation data by synthesizing the first navigation data and the second navigation data;
- and
- a reproduction section configured to reproduce the content in accordance with the third navigation data created by the creation section.
