The invention relates to an integrated circuit. When a plurality of AVClips recorded on a BD-ROM and Local Storage 18 constitute one stream sequence, a Playback Control Engine 32 starts playback if at least one AVClip of the stream sequence is in an enable status, even when the stream sequence also includes an AVClip which is in a disable status. While one AVClip is being played back, a Virtual FileSystem unit 38 changes a remaining AVClip to the enable status of being recognizable by the Playback Control Engine 32 or the disable status of being unrecognizable by the Playback Control Engine 32, according to a method call by an application.
