Abstract:
A reproducing apparatus comprising:a reproducing section to reproduce data from a storage medium in a reproducing mode selected among a plurality of reproducing modes for different reproducing rates; a digital interface connected to external equipment through a serial bus, to allocate; transmission band before data transmission and then transmit the reproduced data to the external equipment through the serial bus in the allocated transmission band; and a controller to control the reproducing section for data reproduction and the digital interface for data communication, wherein when reproducing the data from the storage medium and transmitting the reproduces data to the external equipment, the reproducing section reproduces the data recorded in the storage medium in the reproducing mode selected among the reproducing modes, the controller controls the digital interface so that the digital interface can allocate the transmission band corresponding to the selected reproducing mode, and the digital interface transmits the reproduced data to the external equipment in the allocated transmission band.
