Abstract: The present invention relates to a recording medium containing moving picture data and additional information thereof and to reproducing method and apparatus of the recording medium. The present recording medium has script files including additional information about moving picture data, e.g., scene descriptive text and introduction of characters, etc. In addition, information linking each script file with a section of moving picture data to be presented with contents of the script file is included in a link data file or is contained in a filename of the script file. In reproduction of the recording medium, a script file linked with presently reproduced moving picture data section is determined and searched for based on the link data file or every filename of the script files, and contents of the found script file are presented together with the presently reproduced moving picture data. Furthermore, previously presented additional information is removed depending on data or filename of the found script file.

Abstract: In the data structure, a data area of the recording medium stores a transport stream of at least video data. The transport stream is divided into transport packets. Each of the transport packets is associated with one of the multiple reproduction paths, and the transport packets of each reproduction path are interleaved with one another. In the date structure, a navigation area stores at least one navigation data item. The navigation data item provides navigation information for reproducing more than one of the multiple reproduction paths. The navigation area also stores a separate map associated with each reproduction path, and each map provides position data for the video data of the associated reproduction path.

Abstract: In the data structure, a data area of the recording medium stores at least video data as a transport stream in more than one file. Each file is associated with a different one of the multiple reproduction paths, and the files are interleaved with one another.

Abstract: In the data structure, a data area of the recording medium stores a transport stream of at least video data. The transport stream is divided into transport packets, and each of the transport packets is associated with one of the multiple reproduction paths. Also, the transport packets of each reproduction path is stored in separate physical domains of the data area from one another.

Abstract: The present invention relates to method and apparatus of recording a multi-channel data stream on a recording medium in such a manner that substreams of digital channels constituting the multi-channel data stream can be distinguished each other in reproduction. The present recording method separates a multi-channel stream composed of substreams belonging to a plurality of channels into individual substreams, records the individual substreams separately by channel in a single or plural stream objects allocated in a recording medium, and creates as many files as the number of channels for the single or plural stream objects. The present method makes it possible to selectively search and reproduce each substream among a recorded multi-channel stream through file selection, thereby improving use convenience of a recording machine such as a digital video recorder.

Abstract: The present invention relates to method and apparatus of recording a multi-channel data stream on a recording medium in such a manner that substreams of digital channels constituting the multi-channel data stream can be distinguished each other in reproduction. The present recording method records a multi-channel stream composed of substreams belonging to plural selected channels in a single stream object while grouping every partial stream of same channel to a data block and interleaving the data blocks of different channels each other, creates a piece of search information for each substream contained in the recorded multi-channel stream, and records the created plural pieces of search information on the recording medium. The present method makes it possible to selectively search and reproduce each substream among a multi-channel stream recorded on a recording medium, thereby improving use convenience of a recording machine such as a digital video recorder.

Abstract: The present invention relates to method and apparatus of recording digital data stream on a recording medium such as a high-density digital versatile disk. The present recording method searches received digital data stream containing video signals for each picture section, packetizes a data section including at least one picture section found in the searching process into a PES (Packetized Elementary Stream) packet, slices the PES packet to make the sliced data pieces to a plurality of transport packets, and writes the plurality of transport packets within a stream object unit if the stream object unit has a space enough to store the plurality of transport packets, or from head point of a next stream object unit if not. Therefore, the head of each stream object unit is aligned with start of an arbitrary picture, thereby improving random accessibility of A/V data stream recorded on a recording medium.
