| 1. An information recording medium on which one or a plurality of titles, each of which is a logically-grouped information
unit, are recorded, comprising:
an object data file for storing object data which constitutes a series of content information;
a play list information file for storing a plurality of play list information which defines a reproduction sequence of the
object data stored in said object data file by a unit of a play list which is logically accessible; and
a disc information file for storing a plurality of information groups including, as reproduction control information for controlling
the reproduction of said object data file, (i) play list specification information for specifying one play list information
which defines the play list to be reproduced from among the plurality of play list information stored in said play list information
file, (ii) Pre command information which indicates a command to be executed before the reproduction based on the one play
list information, and (iii) Post command information which indicates a command to be executed after the reproduction based
on the one play list information,
the title being logically constructed by one or more than one of the plurality of information groups,
wherein
the object data is constructed such that an entire stream including a plurality of portion streams, each of which comprises
the content information, is multiplexed by a unit of packet, which is a physically accessible unit and which stores therein
a segment of the content information,
said information recording medium further comprising an object information file for storing correspondence definition information
which defines the correspondence relationship of a plurality of packets to be multiplexed and the plurality of portion streams
as another reproduction control information for controlling the reproduction of said object data file, and
wherein
said play list information file is collectively recorded in one area on said information recording medium,
said disc information file is collectively recorded in another area on said information recording medium, and
said object information file is collectively recorded in another area on said information recording medium.
