Abstract

When recording operation is stopped due to, for example, unexpected interruption of electric power supply in the course of the recording operation on a real time basis, a technique of repairing a moving picture and sound data recorded on a recording medium until the recording is stopped, to thereby restore management information data which enables random access and special reproduction is provided. A video/audio/management information multiplexing means is so implemented as to generate data required for generating management information data for allowing random access to the recording medium and effectuating special reproduction of the recording medium, for thereby multiplexing the data required for generating the management information data, encoded video data outputted from a video encoding means and encoded audio data outputted from an audio encoding means.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to a technique for recording information on a recording medium or a technique for reproducing information from a recording medium. [0002] As to the techniques concerning the recording medium and the recording apparatus for recording pictures and voices or sounds on a real time basis as well as reproducing apparatus and editors, description can be found, for example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 187354 / 1999 (JP-A-11-187354). [0003] More specifically, described in the publication mentioned above are a technique for recording on a recording medium video and / or audio data on a real time basis and recording management information data on the recording medium equally on a real time basis for making it possible to realize random access and special reproduction. However, when electric power supply to the apparatus is, for example, unexpectedly broken with the recording operation being thereby interr...
