Abstract
A reproducing apparatus includes a recording medium mounting detection unit configured to detect that a detachable recording medium is mounted, and a file analysis unit configured to analyze a file recorded in the recording medium. When the recording medium mounting detection unit detects that the recording medium is mounted, representative information that represents recorded content on the recording medium (a representative image and/or a representative title) is acquired from the recording medium and displayed on a display unit prior to file analysis by the file analysis unit.
