Abstract

A controlling device, after acquiring a file list, media management information (media generation control) and contents management information (contents generation count) of a removable storage medium connected to a controlled device, transmits a command (ERASE, WRITE etc.) containing the media management information and the contents management information to the controlled device. The controlled device compares the media management information held by the controlled device with the media management information contained in the control information, and executes a process according to the command if both media management information mutually coincide but rejects the command if both media management information do not coincide.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application of the invention patent application with the application number 00137333.1, the application date is December 1, 2000, and the invention title is "electronic equipment for managing replaceable storage media, its method and storage media". technical field [0002] The invention relates to a device for managing exchangeable storage media and also to a method therefor. Background technique [0003] Networking of imaging devices such as digital still cameras or digital video cameras has recently progressed, and an environment has been developed for connecting such devices with personal computers or peripheral devices at home. [0004] Many such imaging devices are provided with a removable storage medium (also referred to as a removable storage medium), and by converting various digital information (still image data, moving image data, audio data, text data, etc.) , storing such information on such a removable storage medium. ...
