Abstract: A playable volume generation method. A playlist comprises a plurality of playlist items, each targeting one of the playable items to be displayed according to the arrangement of the playlist items. A designated inter-item position on the playlist for inserting a new playlist item is received. A former playlist item and a later playlist item adjacent to the new playlist item are automatically retrieved. A second playable item targeted by the new playlist item is automatically generated to simulate a transition effect transitioning from the end of the playable item targeted by the former playlist item to the beginning of the playable item targeted by the later playlist item.
