An apparatus and method of recording/reproducing a moving picture, and a
recording medium. Audio data in moving picture data includes first audio
or first audio and second audio, and basic unit information includes state
information on the first audio and state information on the second audio.
The state information on the first audio represents an original audio
state in which the first audio is original audio, or a secondary audio
state in which the first audio is secondary audio recorded over part or
all of the original audio. The state information on the second audio
represents a state in which the second audio is original audio, a state in
which the second audio is secondary audio recorded over part or all of the
original audio, a state in which the second audio is dummy audio which is
exactly the same as the first audio, or a state in which the second audio
is secondary audio recorded over part or all of the dummy audio.
Accordingly, audio state information related to a moving image, obtained
through recording/overwriting/edition, is stored in recording unit video
object information VOBI for a corresponding recording unit video object
VOB, and reported to a user before the moving image is reproduced, so that
the user can recognize the audio state. Also, during reproduction, the
user can appropriately cope with audio change.
