FIELD: physics; computer engineering.
SUBSTANCE: method of playing back data from a recording medium using local memory involves reading an association block from the file structure of the local memory, carrying out association operations to combine the read association block with the file structure of the recording medium so as to create virtual data linkage. The method also involves playing back data stored on the recording medium and/or data stored in local memory using the created virtual data linkage. The association block is a set of information associated with the said recording medium. The device for playing back from the recording medium has local memory for storing additional data. The file structure of the local memory includes one or more directories of organisation identification information classified in accordance with individual content suppliers. The organisation identification information directory includes one or more directories of the disc identification information classified in accordance with separate recording media.
EFFECT: possibility of simultaneous playback of data received/stored from the Internet and data recorded on a recording medium based on a virtual file system.
