Recording control apparatus, recording control method, and program

A method of controlling recording of a recording control apparatus for recording new data on a recording medium on which a part of or all of a plurality of files previously recorded are combined to form an edit result, the method comprising the steps of:

• specifying an insert section into which the new data is inserted into the edit result;
• recording, in response to the insert section being included in the edit result within a part of or all of the previously recorded plurality of files,
• first additional data, out of the new data into an unrecorded area in which the plurality of files are not recorded, the unrecorded area corresponding to a section of the edit result other than a section from a start position of the insert section to the end of a insertion file in which the insertion section is located, and
• second additional data, out of the new data, by overwriting a recorded area of the recording medium containing the insertion file;
• generating, via a processor, sequence information indicating a reproducing sequence of the files forming the edit result;
• setting an insert mode in which the new data is inserted into the edit result to an additional-insert mode in which the first additional data is recorded into the unrecorded area;
• recording, in response to the insert mode being set to the additional-insert mode and the insert section being including in the edit result within a part of or all of a plurality of the files, the first additional data into the unrecorded area and records the second additional data by overwriting the recorded area of the recording medium containing the insertion file;
• and
• generating, in response to the insert mode being set to the additional-insert mode and the insert section being including in the edit result within a part of or all of a plurality of the files, the sequence information such that data of a section from the beginning of the insertion file to the start position of the insert section and the new data are reproduced in sequence and then a next file having the reproducing sequence next to the insertion file before insertion is reproduced from the beginning.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer readable instructions thereon for recording new data on a recording medium on which a part of or all of a plurality of files previously recorded are combined to form an edit result, the computer readable instructions which when executed by a reading control apparatus cause the reading control apparatus to perform a method comprising:

• specifying an insert section into which the new data is inserted into the edit result;
• recording, in response to the insert section being included in the edit result within a part of or all of the previously recorded plurality of files,
• first additional data out of the new data, into an unrecorded area in which the plurality of files are not recorded, the unrecorded area corresponding to a section of the edit result other than a section from a start position of the insert section to the end of a insertion file in which the insertion section is located, and
• second additional data, out of the new data, overwriting a recorded area of the recording medium containing the insertion file;
• generating, via a processor, sequence information indicating a reproducing sequence of the files forming the edit result;
• setting an insert mode in which the new data is inserted into the edit result to an additional-insert mode in which the first additional data is recorded into the unrecorded area,
• recording, in response to the insert mode being set to the additional-insert mode and the insert section being including in the edit result within a part of or all of a plurality of the files, the first additional data into the unrecorded area and records the second additional data by overwriting the recorded area of the recording medium containing the insertion file;
• and
• generating, in response to the insert mode being set to the additional-insert mode and the insert section being including in the edit result within a part of or all of a plurality of the files, the sequence information such that data of a section from the beginning of the insertion file to the start position of the insert section and the new data are reproduced in sequence and then a next file having the reproducing sequence next to the insertion file before insertion is reproduced from the beginning.
