Patent attributes
An information recording and reproducing device allows a content having data about title, among contents recorded on a recording medium, to be contained in a frame for distinguishing the title from a background image so as to generate a framed title image. For a content without data about title, the information recording and reproducing device generates a blank frame image to show the existence of content without a title. The information recording and reproducing device further superimposes the framed title image and the blank frame image on the background image so as to make a title menu screen, and records the title menu screen on the recording medium for display to a user. This title menu screen can enable the user to easily recognize a title of a content and the existence of content without a title which are recorded on the recording medium.
