Benefits of technology

[0041] According to the present invention, text information written in a variety of languages and data shared by those languages are multiplexed and stored in one menu stream such that data is not redundantly stored and less storage space is wasted. In addition, since a menu stream is selected using a program, content can be produced according to various types of attribute information.

Problems solved by technology

If menus are thus prepared for respective languages, storage space is seriously wasted because non-text information such as video data, which consumes a large amount of space and does not have a language limitation, is included in menus prepared for the respective languages.
In addition, there is a problem in that it is impossible to change a language while video data is being reproduced.
Also, because a method of selecting a menu is predetermined, the menu cannot be selected by criteria other than languages.

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Reference will now be made in detail to the embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like reference numerals refer to the like elements throughout. The embodiments are described below to explain the present invention by referring to the figures.

[0026]FIG. 3 shows that among interactive graphics streams written in respective languages, an interactive graphics stream corresponding to a value stored in a system register is reproduced.

[0027] Here, an interactive graphics stream can be changed only by navigation commands related to reproduction of multimedia data and cannot be changed by a user's operation. A navigation command has a plurality of navigation registers, and among the navigation registers, there is a player status register (PSR) indicating the status of the reproducing apparatus. The player status register will be explained later referring to table 1. Among player status registers, an example of a...
