VERFAHREN UND VORRICHTUNG ZUR STREAM-UMSETZUNG, VERFAHREN UND VORRICHTUNG ZUR DATENAUFZEICHNUNG UND DATENAUFZEICHNUNGSMEDIUM

摘要

In a recording medium storing MPEG stream, flag information (encode_condition) indicating that the stream is recorded in a format enabling easily the first stream (MPEG transport stream) to be converted into the second stream (MPEG program stream) is provided. Such a flag information is included in Tip packet which is a control packet, in the medium. Thus it can easily determine whether the data is recorded in this format without analysis of data stored in the recording medium.
