There are provided: a unit data group formation section for forming a unit data group comprising at least one piece of unit data; a thumbnail image generation section for generating a thumbnail image for unit data; a link information generation section for generating unit data link information to link with each unit data forming the unit data group; a data group generation section for generating a data group comprising a unit data group and unit data link information; and a closed session processing section for performing a closed session process so that other reproducing apparatuses can read an optical disc recording at least one data group. The closed session processing section generates a menu image including the thumbnail image based on the unit data, generates menu image link information for linking with the menu image, and records the menu image and the menu image link information on an optical disc.

It is possible to manage an empty region in a disc partition while satisfying an inhibit matter of the ROM standard not recording a space bit map describer (SBD). The SBD is recorded upon disc initialization and additional recording into the partition is performed by using the SBD regardless of the access type in the device. When ejecting the disc, pointer information to the SBD recorded in the partition describer (PD) is hacked up in the SBD pointer information save file or save data and then the pointer information is erased. Upon disc recognition, the existence of the save file/data is confirmed and the SBD is restored.

An image processing apparatus includes a signal processor which generates moving image data by performing data conversion on still image data, and a controller which determines an aspect ratio of the moving image data generated in the data conversion performed by the signal processor. The controller determines the aspect ratio of the moving image data generated in the data conversion by the signal processor on the basis of aspect ratio information of image data files recorded on a recording medium onto which the moving image data generated by the signal processor is recorded.

Time varying images 712 before coded are rearranged in a coding stage into unitary images 722 having the sequence of time stamps DTS 725. A GPS or the like provides position information indicative of the position whereat the respective unitary image of a motion image has been captured. The unitary image and the position information are correlated to one another by setting common time stamps PTS (724 and 723) thereon. When decoding each of blocks of coded and multiplexed data 731 to 735, the position information corresponding to the unitary image is specified. Thereby, the unitary image of the coded motion image and the corresponding position information are correlated to one another, whereby a trajectory of the motion image can be displayed on a map in accordance with the position information.

An encoding controlling apparatus is disclosed which includes: offset holding means for holding an offset equivalent to a time period by which to start encoding an audio signal earlier than a video signal upon recording of a chapter; recording mode determining means for determining whether a seamless connection is possible between the preceding chapter and the following chapter in order to set an initial value of the offset depending on an outcome of the determination; offset updating means for updating the offset in keeping with progress in encoding the video signal and the audio signal; and recording controlling means for giving an instruction either to start or to stop the encoding of the video signal and the audio signal in accordance with the offset. The inventive apparatus controls the encoding process in keeping with the offset between the audio and video signals, thereby achieving seamless connection between chapters without incurring discrepancies between the video and audio signals.

Additional recording is performed on a recording medium without using a VAT technique.An area including the 256th logical sector is reserved at disc initialization time, and additional recording is performed from this reserved area and after. Additional recording is performed by writing packets from a logical sector immediately after a recorded area (including the reserved area), and AVDP is recorded into two places having the last logical sector number N of a packet structure and a logical sector number less than 256 sectors from N, and thus additional recording in compliance with the UDF is possible after that. At the time of finalization, AVDP is recorded in the 256th logical sector, a surplus area in the reserved area is subjected to padding to ensure wide compatibility with playback-only apparatuses.

摘要:
A top menu is configured to provide information about chapters contained in a recording medium when it is finalized. From an optical disk as a recording medium, a title retrieval section reads title information about each title of motion picture data recorded on the optical disk. A chapter retrieval section reads chapter information about each chapter in the corresponding title based on the title information obtained in this manner. Based on the chapter information obtained in this manner, a representative picture selection section selects a representative picture in each chapter. A menu generation section generates the top menu including a display area to reproduce chapters based on the chapter information obtained by the chapter retrieval section.
