A recording and reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing the stream of a content, in which video image and audio streams are extracted from streams of a predetermined format, and a new stream, the edit of which can be freely carried out, is created from the streams and recorded. A recording and reproducing apparatus comprises an input/output interface for inputting a stream, a stream conversion processing portion for converting an input stream of a predetermined format into a stream comprising only a video image stream and an audio stream and a recording medium writing control portion for writing and recording the converted stream in a recording medium. The recording medium writing control portion writes managing information representing that the stream converted by the stream conversion processing portion is recorded in a predetermined area (manufacturer definition area) of the recording medium. The recording and reproducing apparatus can control various functions (display function, edit function, reproduction function, output function, dubbing function, and so forth) according to the managing information.
