To allow high speed search for audio files described in a play list and to quickly perform reproduction of the audio files according to the play list even when a plurality of audio files are recorded on a recording medium, a matching comparison unit for performing a search for a file name described in the play list from file names included in a file name list is provided in a signal processing circuit for performing processing such as decoding of an audio file. When reproduction using the play list is instructed, respective file numbers of the audio files detected in the search by the matching comparison unit are output to a control circuit.
