Abstract
When a stopping instruction is given while a data file recorded in a recording medium is being played back, the position of the recording medium at which the stopping instruction was given is recorded so that a playback is started from the recorded position during a resume playback. Also, in a case where a data file is recorded in a recording medium, the recording position of a predetermined recorded data file is stored so that a playback is started from the predetermined position of the predetermined recorded data file during a playback.
