Audio and video disc data structure and operating method

Abstract

A data structure of audio-video disc has a pilot data file, which uses multiple forms of different data classes for respectively recording the information associated with another audio-video data file on the disc. Each form has a head and a serial number. In each data class, there is an edit information form for recording the edited information in this data class. The newly added or edit form is written to disc in additional mode. At the beginning of reproducing audio-video data, all the forms are combined into a pilot data file. As a result, the newly added or edited audio-video data can be reproduced without modifying original pilot data file.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a navigation data structure of an audio-visual disc and an operation method thereof, in particular to a file structure for recording navigation data generated by editing or adding audio-visual data, and playing audio-visual using this file structure The method of the content of the data. Background technique [0002] The method of storing audio / video data (Audio / Video data) using disks (such as CDs or magnetic disks) has long been known by people. Two files; one of them is an audio-visual data file used to record audio-visual content, and the so-called audio-visual data is, for example, the ".VRO file" (.VRO file) in the DVD-Video Recording specification; and the other file It is a navigation data file (Navigation file) that records the relevant navigation data (Navigation data) required when playing audio-visual data, for example, as defined in the DVD-Video Recording specification ".ifo file" (.ifo file). In this n...

[0006] 2. When the user edits or changes the playlist, the playlist information table (playlist information table) must be updated to update the entire navigation data file; if the available capacity of the disc is insufficient, or the user can only write once If you use a write-once disc, this update method will cause damage to the disc and reduce the service life. If you use a write-once disc, you need to rewrite the navigation data file every time. The update method will cause a waste of disk space; the main reason is that each form (table) in the navigation data file adopts the address recording method (the information of its starting address is recorded in the management information form), so every time When any form is updated, the starting position needs to be changed again, so the content of the navigation data file must be re-modified and updated, and the old navigation data file must be discarded
