<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the preprocessing time such as a download time before reproduction without lengthening the delimiter time of a clip info file. <P>SOLUTION: The number of clip info files stored in a distribution server 4 is set to less than the number of stream files, all of the clip info files and a play list file are downloaded before progressive download reproduction begins, and progressive download reproduction is begun using the downloaded play list file and each clip info file downloaded. Then each clip info file corresponding to a stream file which has had progressive download reproduction finished is sequentially rewritten so that it corresponds to a stream file which has no corresponding clip info file, and progressive download reproduction is continued using the rewritten clip info file and the play list file. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
