Abstract:
1. An information processing apparatus comprising a control unit including a processor configured to control reproducing from a play list in one or more modes; wherein, when reproducing is switched from a first play list to a second play list while a reproduction segment of the first play list is reproduced, the control unit in a first mode accesses a time code that identifies a time point at which the reproducing is switched from the first play list to the second play list, wherein the control unit controls reproducing from the second play list to start from a reproduction segment of the second play list having a start time closest to the time point identified by the time code, wherein, in the event that the reproduction segment of the first play list overlaps with the reproduction segment of the second play list at the time point identified by the time code, the start time of the reproduction segment of the second playlist is prior to the time point identified by the time code, and wherein, in the event that the reproduction segment of the first play list does not overlap with the reproduction segment of the second play list at the time point identified by the time code, the start time of the reproduction segment of the second playlist is after the time point identified by the time code.
