Between the cells belonging to the different PGC, the same part in a video object VOB can be designated with duplication. The recording reproducing video management data includes program chain information PGCI, a search pointer indicating cell information CI regarding the cell and a position for the above CI. The information on the file system includes a file entry FE for the video file. The FE includes an allocation descriptor AD. The AD includes both the information on length and the information on position of the extent. A non-recorded area is allowed to exist in the video file. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
