ABSTRACT:
In cases where at least one item of sound information has been associated with at least image, at least one desired item of sound information is selected and the sound information is played back in a prescribed order. According, in an information processing apparatus, a playback sequence decision unit (103) reads in image data as well as sound data, which has been assigned within the image data, from a image/sound data storage unit (107), generates a still image in which the positions at which sound data has been recorded is denoted on the image, and displays the generated still image on a image display unit (106). A sound data specifying unit (102) searches the image/sound data storage unit (107) for sound data that has been associated with the interior of an image area specified by an input from a user. When applicable sound data is found to exist, the playback sequence decision unit (103) decides the order in which the applicable sound data is to be played back. A playback processor (104) generates sound data in accordance with the order decided by the playback sequence decision unit (103).
