A data recording apparatus including: a data reading device configured to read data from a first recording medium and configured to store data and first management data for managing the data by file; a data recording device configured to record data on a second recording medium; a management data producing device configured to produce second management data for managing data recorded on the second recording medium based on the first management data of the first recording medium on which the data recorded on the second recording medium has been recorded; a data determining device configured to determine data unrecorded on the second recording medium by comparing the first management data read by the data reading device from the first recording medium with the second management data recorded on the second recording medium; a control device configured to read the data determined by the data determining device from the first recording medium and cause the recording device to record the read data onto the second recording medium; and a display device configured to display the recording status of data, managed by the first management data read by the reading device from the first recording medium, on the second recording medium, wherein the recording status includes one of recording of data complete, recording of data in progress, and recording of data yet to begin.

A plurality of kinds of LPCM signals/compression digital audio signals is switched to one another in transmission, thereby enabling audio reproduction to be satisfactorily carried out. A digital audio signal is transmitted to an external apparatus through a predetermined transmission path. Information associated with the digital audio signal to be next transmitted is added to the digital audio signal which is currently being transmitted. For example, first metadata exhibiting a transmission frequency of the digital audio signal, and second metadata exhibiting a data type of the digital audio signal are contained in the information.

A data recording apparatus including: a data reading device configured to read data from a first recording medium and configured to store data and first management data for managing the data by file; a data recording device configured to record data on a second recording medium; a management data producing device configured to produce second management data for managing data recorded on the second recording medium based on the first management data of the first recording medium on which the data recorded on the second recording medium has been recorded; a data determining device configured to determine data unrecorded on the second recording medium by comparing the first management data read by the data reading device from the first recording medium with the second management data recorded on the second recording medium; a control device configured to read the data determined by the data determining device from the first recording medium and cause the recording device to record the read data onto the second recording medium; and a display device configured to display the recording status of data, managed by the first management data read by the reading device from the first recording medium, on the second recording medium, wherein the recording status includes one of recording of data complete, recording of data in progress, and recording of data yet to begin.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and information processing apparatuses. The medium stores instructions which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method including automatically reading first management data from a first storage medium. The first management data identifies files of source data stored on the first storage medium. One of the files of source data is automatically identified based on the first management data and second management data. The second management data identifies files of transferred data stored on a second storage medium. The one of the files of source data is absent from the second storage medium and automatically transferred to the second storage medium. The one of the files of source data being transferred becomes one of the files of transferred data. The method further includes automatically displaying transferring status of the one of the files of source data by a symbolic figure.

A data transferring device and a data transfer method. The data transferring device for transferring an audio-visual stream stored in a first medium to a second medium, includes: a reader comprising reading circuitry configured to read the audio-visual stream from the first medium; and a controller configured to: extract an audio packet and a video packet from the audio-visual stream; write the audio packet and video packet to the second medium; and store, in a memory, first location information indicating locations at which the audio packet and the video packet are written in the second medium, and second location information indicating locations at which the audio packet and the video packet are read from the first medium.

Disclosed are a mobile terminal of a watch type and controlling method thereof. The present invention includes a display unit, a sensing unit, a communication unit configured to transmit/receive a signal with a vehicle accident recording device, and a controller controlling the display unit, the sensing unit and the communication unit, wherein if a state change of a user is sensed, an image request signal for requesting an image is transmitted to the vehicle accident recording device, wherein the image corresponds to at least one of a moving image and a still image corresponding to a first time point of sensing the state change, and wherein if the image is received from the vehicle accident recording device, a notification indicating that the image is received is provided. Accordingly, a photographed image is received from a vehicle accident recording device in case of sensing user's state change.
