Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first loading unit that loads a general-purpose software which provides a general-purpose function to an execution environmental area and mounts the general-purpose software in a predetermined directory at the time of starting up a system. A second loading unit loads a dedicated software which provides a function intrinsic to the other device to the execution environmental area and mounts the dedicated software in a predetermined directory at the time of starting up a system. An integrating unit integrates a first setting file containing general-purpose setting information which is included in the general-purpose software and a second setting file containing general-purpose setting information which is included in the dedicated software.

Abstract: A real-time reproduction determination unit determines whether or not AV data recorded in recording areas on an optical disc can be reproduced in a real-time manner. If the AV data recorded on the optical disc cannot be reproduced in a real-time manner, a compile simulation unit and a compile execution unit respectively select extents from the AV data recorded on the optical disc and relocate the extents to a relocation area.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus is disclosed, which is used while being incorporated in other device and provides a predetermined function to the other device in which the information processing apparatus is incorporated.
