Information processor, information processing method and program
First Claim
1. An information processor comprising:
- a content acquisition section adapted to acquire linked content that includes a plurality of scenarios, each of the plurality of scenarios being made up of content data and control information used to control the reproduction of the content data;
a control information acquisition section adapted to acquire the control information associated with one of the plurality of scenarios, the control information identifying another one of the plurality of scenarios to which the one of the plurality of scenarios is linked; and
a reproduction control section adapted to control the reproduction of the linked content by reproducing the content data associated with the one of the plurality of scenarios according to the control information associated with the one of the plurality of scenarios, whereinthe control information acquisition section acquires, as an event adapted to allow a move from the one of the plurality of scenarios to the other one of the plurality of scenarios, the control information including an absolute time-of-day event that occurs at a specific date and time on scenario time axis, andthe reproduction control section allows a move from the one of the plurality of scenarios to the other one of the plurality of scenarios when the absolute time-of-day event occurs.

Abstract
An information processor includes: a content acquisition section adapted to acquire linked content that includes a plurality of scenarios, each made up of content data and control information used to control the reproduction of the content data; a control information acquisition section adapted to acquire the control information; and a reproduction control section adapted to control the reproduction of the linked content by reproducing the content data according to the control information, wherein the control information acquisition section acquires, as an event adapted to allow a move from the current scenario to another scenario, the control information including an absolute time-of-day event that occurs at a specific date and time on the scenario time axis, and the reproduction control section allows a move from the current scenario to another scenario if the absolute time-of-day event occurs.

7. A method of an information processor for reproducing linked content, the method comprising:
-
acquiring linked content that includes a plurality of scenarios, each of the plurality of scenarios being made up of content data and control information used to control the reproduction of the content data; acquiring the control information associated with one of the plurality of scenarios, the control information identifying another one of the plurality of scenarios to which the one of the plurality of scenarios is linked; controlling, by the information processor, the reproduction of the linked content by reproducing the content data associated with the one of the plurality of scenarios according to the control information associated with the one of the plurality of scenarios; acquiring, as an event adapted to allow a move from the one of the plurality of scenarios to the other one of the plurality of scenarios, the control information including an absolute time-of-day event that occurs at a specific date and time on a scenario time axis; and allowing, by the information processor, a move from the one of the plurality of scenarios to the other one of the plurality of scenarios when the absolute time-of-day event occurs. - View Dependent Claims (8)
