Abstract: The recording medium has a data structure for managing reproduction of data recorded on the recording medium. A navigation area stores at least one navigation file, and the navigation file includes at least one navigation command group. At least one navigation command group includes at least one navigation command for managing reproduction of at least video data recorded on the recording medium.

Abstract: The recording medium includes a playlist directory area and at least one navigation information area. The playlist directory area stores a playlist directory including a plurality of playlist files. Each playlist file identifies a portion of the multiple playback path video data and at least a portion of the playlist files associated with different playback paths. The navigation information area stores navigation information at least providing information on one playback path.

Abstract: The recording medium includes a navigation area and at least one playlist area. The navigation area stores navigation management information for managing the reproduction of at least multiple reproduction path video data from the recording medium. At least one playlist is stored in a playlist area. Each playlist identifies at least one playitem, and each playitem identifies at least one clip of video data.

Abstract: The recording medium includes at least one data area storing video data for at least one segment of a title. The video data is recorded as video data packets and at least a portion of the video data packets associated with different reproduction paths for the segment are multiplexed. In one exemplary embodiment, the multiplexed video data packets are multiplexed on a video data packet basis. In another exemplary embodiment, the video data packets associated with each reproduction path for the segment are recorded as one or mores groups and the groups are multiplexed.

Abstract: The data structure for managing reproduction of at least video data recorded on the recording medium includes a general information file area storing at least one general information file. The general information file includes at least one playlist identifier identifying a playlist file forming a title of video data recorded on the recording medium and title management information for managing reproduction of the video data by title. A playlist directory area stores at least one playlist directory, and each playlist directory includes at least one playlist file identified by a playlist identifier in the general information file. Each playlist file identifies at least one playitem, and each playitem identifies a clip of the video data.

Abstract: The data structure for managing reproduction of at least video data recorded on the recording medium may include, for example, path management information for managing reproduction of the multiple reproduction path video data recorded on the recording medium. The path management information indicates at least one playlist belonging to each reproduction path. The data structure further includes at least one playlist file identified by the path management information recorded in a playlist area of the recording medium. The playlist file identifies at least one playitem, and each playitem identifies a clip of the multiple reproduction path video data. The data structure may includes chapter management information for managing reproduction of the video data by chapters. In one example, the chapter management information is recorded in the playlist files.

Abstract: The recording medium includes a navigation area storing navigation control information for managing the reproduction of at least video data from the recording medium. The navigation area, according to one embodiment, stores at least one navigation control object that includes an attribute field indicating at least one attribute of the navigation control object and a navigation direction number field indicating a number of navigation directions. Each navigation control object includes at least one navigation direction.

Abstract: The recording medium includes at least one data area storing more than one clip of video data for at least one segment of a title, and each clip of video data is associated with a different reproduction path of the segment.

Abstract: The recording medium includes a path management area storing path management information. The path management information identifies clips of video data associated with each reproduction path of at least a segment of a title.

Abstract: A navigation area of the recording medium stores navigation management information associated with each title of video data. The navigation management information indicates at least one reproduction path for the title of video data and includes an attribute field indicating at least one attribute of the navigation management information.
