A data recording/playback configuration whereby data compatible with a standard such as the BD standard, AVCHD standard, or the like, and data incompatible with a standard are usable together is realized. In the event that recorded data is data compatible with a standard such as the BD standard, AVCHD standard, or the like at the time of data recording processing as to a medium, the management information of the recorded data is recorded in a management information file only for data compatible with a standard, and in the event that the recorded data is data incompatible with a standard, a URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) that is file identification information to be applied to playback of recorded data is recorded in a file list. Playback processing is performed by using the management information file only for data compatible with a standard at the time of playback of data compatible with a standard, and by applying the file list at the time of playback of data incompatible with a standard.
