Abstract
To facilitate implementing a user operation control in a picture reproducing apparatus for reproducing contents recorded on a disk or the like. A picture reproducing apparatus selects and reproduces a plurality of prerecorded picture streams in the disk. A reproduction control unit is configured to reproduce the picture streams in either of two reproduction modes, i.e., a normal mode for accepting particular key inputs pertaining to picture reproduction and a menu mode for not accepting the particular key inputs. The mode in which the picture streams are reproduced may be written by contents creators in a script file which is recorded on the disk.
