Reproduction apparatus, reproduction method, reproduction program, record medium, and data structure

1. A non-transitory record medium that is readable by a computer device, the record medium comprising:

a data area configured to store content data including at least one of a video stream and an audio stream; and

a control area configured to store control data including at least one resource file that contains a reproduction control program and data used by the reproduction control program, wherein

a reproduction apparatus reproduces the content data based on the reproduction control program, and

the file name of the resource file includes information that indicates whether a language is used as a default language when the content data are reproduced and information that represents a language attribute of the resource file that indicates that the resource file will use the language in reproduction of the content data.

2. The record medium as set forth in claim 1 ,

wherein after the resource file is read by the computer device, while a predetermined region of the record medium is being reproduced, the resource file is stored in a memory of the computer device.

3. The record medium as set forth in claim 1 ,

wherein the file name of the resource file further contains information that represents a display aspect ratio expected when the reproduction of the content data is controlled according to the resource file.

4. A reproduction apparatus that reproduces content data from a record medium, the reproduction apparatus comprising:

read means for reading data from the record medium on which the content data that contain at least one of a video stream and an audio stream and at least one resource file that contains a reproduction control program that controls the reproduction of the content data and data used by the reproduction control program are recorded,

storage means for storing the resource file read by the read means; and

player means for reproducing the content data according to the reproduction control program,

wherein when a plurality of resource files are recorded on the record medium, the read means selects and reads a resource file that the player means first uses from the plurality of resource files according to the file names of the resource files to reproduce the content data from the beginning, and

wherein the file name of each resource file includes information that indicates whether a language is used as a default language when the content data are reproduced and information that represents a language attribute of the resource file that indicates that the resource file will use the language in reproduction of the content data.

5. The reproduction apparatus as set forth in claim 4 ,

wherein when the player means reproduces the content data from the beginning, the read means determines whether there is a resource file whose language attribute matches a setting language on the record medium according to the file name of the resource file;

wherein when the determined result represents that there is a resource file whose language attribute matches the setting language on the record medium, the read means selects and reads the resource file; and

wherein when the determined result represents that there is no resource file whose language attribute matches the setting language on the record medium, the read means selects and reads a resource file whose file name includes the information that indicates that a language used by the selected resource file is the default language used to reproduce the content data.

6. The reproduction apparatus as set forth in claim 5 ,

wherein the file name of the resource file further contains information that represents a display aspect ratio expected when the reproduction of the content data is controlled according to the resource file, and

wherein when there are a plurality of resource files whose language attributes match the setting language or whose file names contain information that represents a language that is normally used on the record medium, the read means selects and reads a resource file from the plurality of resource files according to the information that represents the display aspect ratio contained in the file names.

7. A reproduction method of reproducing content data from a record medium on which the content data that contain at least one of a video stream and an audio stream and at least one resource file that contains a reproduction control program that causes player means to control the reproduction of the content data and data used by the reproduction control program are recorded, the reproduction method comprising:

when a plurality of resource files are recorded on the record medium, selecting and reading a resource file that the player means first uses from the plurality of resource files according to the file names of the resource files to reproduce the content data from the beginning,

wherein the file name of each resource file includes information that indicates whether a language is used as a default language when the content data are reproduced and information that represents a language attribute of the resource file that indicates that the resource file will use the language in reproduction of the content data.

8. A non-transitory record medium that is readable by a computer device and on which a reproduction program is recorded, the reproduction program causing the computer device to execute a reproduction method of reproducing content data from the record medium on which the content data that contain at least one of a video stream and an audio stream and at least one resource file that contains a reproduction control program that causes player means to control the reproduction of the content data and data used by the reproduction control program are recorded, the reproduction method comprising:

when a plurality of resource files are recorded on the record medium, selecting and reading a resource file that the player means first uses from the plurality of resource files according to the file names of the resource files to reproduce the content data from the beginning,

wherein the file name of each resource file includes information that indicates whether a language is used as a default language when the content data are reproduced and information that represents a language attribute of the resource file that indicates that the resource file will use the language in reproduction of the content data.
