ABSTRACT:
An information processing apparatus and method for the same, comprising a database part, a processing-method-determining part, and an information-processing-part. The processing-method-determining part extracts from the data base part attribute characteristics corresponding to the individual media signals which correspond to the reference signals. The processing-method-determining part selects one processing method from among methods by combining the attribute characteristics. The informations processing part, based on the selected processing method, extends or reduces the reproduction time of the media signals to be combined, or discontinues an individual media signal, wherein a multimedia representation consisting of different media signals is produced with reproducing times that satisfactorily coincide.
