Transmitting and recording method, reproducing method, and reproducing apparatus of information and its recording medium

Abstract

A method of reproducing data from a recording medium, each of the data including reference time information indicating a reference time and including packet data, the method including: reproducing the data from the recording medium; obtaining a difference between respective reference times indicated by the reference time information of the reproduced adjacent data; rearranging the data on a time axis such that a time interval between adjacent data is equal to the obtained reference time difference; and outputting the rearranged data.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The invention provides a method for transmitting and recording information on a picture or picture group basis. By including information in a data structure that is unique to a medium, the method allows for easy and accurate detection of the position of a picture or boundary of a picture group. This eliminates the need for complicated controls and speeds up the retrieval process."

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in the case of performing a retrieval, an editing operation, and the like on a picture or picture group unit basis, a complicated control is needed to find a position of the picture or boundary of the picture group on the medium, so that there is a problem such that it takes a long time to find the position.
