To effectively reproduce video depending on the performance of a reproducing apparatus. A controller 446 determines whether or not an entry of video is a beginning of a chapter of video or whether or not a scene change of the entry is important. In other words, the controller 446 determines whether or not an entry under evaluation corresponds to a time of a chapter of chapter scene change information 447 or whether or not the entry is an important scene change. If an entry under evaluation corresponds to a time of a chapter, the controller 446 sets priority_flag=3 and stores it to an output server 426. The present invention can be applied to a game device or the like that uses for example a DVD.

At step S372, permission information about video data that are being reproduced is obtained from permission information that represents whether video data corresponding to encoded video data equal to or larger than an access unit are permitted to be secondarily used. At step S373, it is determined whether the video data that are being reproduced have been permitted to be secondarily used corresponding to the permission information. When it has been determined that the video data that are being reproduced have been permitted to be secondarily used, at step S376, the video data that are being reproduced are captured. At step S381, a process using the captured video data is executed. The present invention can be applied to for example a game device that uses a DVD.

To facilitate implementing a user operation control in a picture reproducing apparatus for reproducing contents recorded on a disk or the like. A picture reproducing apparatus selects and reproduces a plurality of prerecorded picture streams in the disk. A reproduction control unit is configured to reproduce the picture streams in either of two reproduction modes, i.e., a normal mode for accepting particular key inputs pertaining to picture reproduction and a menu mode for not accepting the particular key inputs. The mode in which the picture streams are reproduced may be written by contents creators in a script file which is recorded on the disk.

User's operations for a player can be easily restricted. A restriction mode that restricts user's operations that control the player that reproduces contents are preset. A value that represents a restriction mode for each play list is recorded as attribute information on a disc. When the player reproduces contents from the disc, the player creates a table corresponding to a restriction mode for each play list. The player references the table and filters control commands corresponding to user's operations that control the reproduction of contents using a command filter. Restriction modes includes a mode causing the player to reproduce a play list from beginning at predetermined speed for example 1× speed and a mode prohibiting the player from jumping while it is reproducing a play list. The load of the content creator side that verifies restrictions against user's operations decreases. The load of the player side that verifies operations decreases.

It is possible to display a caption with an aspect ratio independent from the aspect ratio of a main video. When a flag indicating that the aspect ratio of the caption is 16:9 is set, the caption video image frame size (720×480) is converted so as to match the aspect ratio of 16:9 and the caption video obtained as the result is superimposed on the main video and displayed. That is, when the main video has an aspect ratio of 4:3, as shown in FIG. 19, reduction in the lateral direction is performed and the main video is displayed with addition of black tone at the right and left but the caption video is displayed with the aspect ratio of 16:9.

A progressive-scanned picture is displayed without a loss of its vertical resolution. In a picture encoding apparatus 101, a determined result that represents whether an encoding target picture is an interlace-scanned picture or a progressive-scanned picture is set to a scanning flag. Information that represents a display system of a picture is set to display system designation information. Encoded data of which the picture, the scanning flag, and the display system designation information have been multiplexed are output. A picture decoding apparatus 102 recognizes a picture on the basis of the scanning flag and the display system designation information of the encoded data. When the picture is an interlace-scanned picture, the picture is interpolated with fields. As a result, a frame picture is generated and output. When the picture is a progressive-scanned picture, the picture is recognized as a frame picture and repetitively output the number of times corresponding to the display system designation information. The present invention may be applied when a picture is encoded and decoded on the basis of H.264/AVC.

Video data and output data that need to be output in synchronization therewith are synchronized. When an output of video data is later than an output of output data synchronized with the video data, at step S273, a process for one access unit is caused to be skipped. At step S275, it is determined whether the video data are referenced when other video data are decoded according to au_ref_flag of video data of the access unit whose process has been caused to be skipped. When the video data of the access unit whose process has been caused to be skipped are not referenced when the other video data are decoded, at step S277, the access unit whose process has been caused to be skipped is skipped. The present invention can be applied to for example a game device that uses a DVD.

Pictures can be encoded such that no display wait occurs or a decoding side. Pictures are re-encoded such that their encoding order is changed. As a result, picture B3 is detected as picture Na+1 (FIG. 11A) that is decoded later than picture I1 (picture Nd) by two pictures. Thus, picture P3 (picture Na+2) (a picture displayed later than picture I1 by two pictures) is contained in picture sequence {I1, P2, B3}. As shown in FIG. 11C and FIG. 11D, picture B3 is decoded at a time corresponding to its displaying time. Thus, picture B3 can be displayed at its displaying time.
