Apparatus and method for recording/reproducing moving picture and recording medium

Abstract

An apparatus and method of recording/reproducing a moving picture, and a recording medium. Audio data in moving picture data includes first audio or first audio and second audio, and basic unit information includes state information on the first audio and state information on the second audio. The state information on the first audio represents an original audio state in which the first audio is original audio, or a secondary audio state in which the first audio is secondary audio recorded over part or all of the original audio. The state information on the second audio represents a state in which the second audio is original audio, a state in which the second audio is secondary audio recorded over part or all of the original audio, a state in which the second audio is dummy audio which is exactly the same as the first audio, or a state in which the second audio is secondary audio recorded over part or all of the dummy audio. Accordingly, audio state information related to a moving image, obtained through recording/overwriting/edition, is stored in recording unit video object information VOBI for a corresponding recording unit video object VOB, and reported to a user before the moving image is reproduced, so that the user can recognize the audio state. Also, during reproduction, the user can appropriately cope with audio change.
