Abstract:
A data recording apparatus stores, in a data file having a container structure, multiple pieces of image data that have different expression methods, such as moving image data and still image data, along with metadata regarding the pieces of image data, and records the data file. The data recording apparatus stores the pieces of image data having different expression methods in the data file in the same container format. Accordingly, it is possible to generate a data file that stores various formats of data and has versatility.
