  • Publication number: 20060059438
    Abstract: An optical reproducing apparatus and method capable of adjusting a size of a menu view. An user input unit selects a predetermined menu view mode among a plurality of menu view modes displaying a standard menu view in different sizes. A storage stores an image information of the standard menu view corresponding to a standard mode among the plurality of the menu view modes. A menu view generator generates a menu view corresponding to the predetermined menu view mode selected by the user input unit based on the stored image information. An output unit outputs the generated menu view to a display device being connected. A controller controls the menu view generator to adjust a size of the standard menu view based on the image information if the selected menu view mode is one of an enlargement mode or a reduction mode. Accordingly, it is possible to adjust the size of the menu view in consideration of the screen size of the display device.
