  • Publication number: 20040114915
    Abstract: An apparatus reproduces AV data in an interactive mode, a method handles a user input, and an information storage medium stores information therefor. The information storage medium includes AV data and a markup document utilized to reproduce the AV data in an interactive mode. The markup document includes first event information of an occurrence of a key input event corresponding to a user action to inform, by default, an AV playback engine, which plays back the AV data. Accordingly, interactive contents may be controlled using a limited user input device.

  • Publication number: 20040076402
    Abstract: An information storage medium controls a multi-angle data reproducing apparatus by having a data structure including at least one clip for each angle, each angle clip being a data record unit of the multi-angle data for an angle. Each angle clip is divided into predetermined jumping units at jumping points and each is recorded in contiguous areas of the information storage medium. Using the clip jumping points as a link among the angle clips in which each angle clip is contiguously recorded provides efficient random access for reading the multi-angle data for angle change.
