A table a management region on the disc contains a disc identifier that represents the type of the data recording format of the disc, a number-of-disc-sides identifier that represents whether the disc is a single-sided disc or a double-sided disc, and a disc side identifier that represents whether the reproducing disc is side A or side B of a double-sided disc. A disc identifier that represents the type of the data recording format of the file is recorded in a file (n) table including management information of the file. A reproducing apparatus reads the disc identifiers from the table and the file (n) table and determines whether or not the disc and the file are reproducible. In addition, the reproducing apparatus reads the number-of-disc-sides identifier from the table and determines whether or not the disc is a double-sided disc or a single-sided disc. When the disc is a double-sided disc, the reproducing apparatus determines whether the reproducing side is side A or side B.
A recording medium on which data is recorded as a file, the file comprising:
A reproducing apparatus for reproducing data from a recording medium on which said data is recorded as a file, said file including a data unit region containing a data unit representing a group of a plurality of types of data that are synchronously reproduced, a cell information region containing at least one cell information table that contains cell information defining a program cell composed by linking data defining at least one data unit recorded in said data unit region, and a chain information region containing chain information defining at least one program chain composed by linking at least one of said program cells based on said cell information table recorded in said cell information region, said chain information including a cell number sequence that represents a plurality of program cell numbers defining said program chain and as order of reproduction of said program cells in said program chain and mode information that represents whether or not each program cell represented by a portion of said cell number sequence is a program cell that is selectively reproducible along with another program cell along a same time axis, the reproducing apparatus comprising:
