Moving picture reproducing apparatus, reproducing method and storage medium

Abstract

A moving picture reproducing apparatus in which player mode information is set, a reproducing method using the same, and a storage medium. The apparatus includes a storage area in which player mode information indicating types of reproducible data is recorded; and a reproducing unit selectively reproducing first type data, or selectively reproducing the first type data and the second type data, according to the player mode information from a storage medium including at least one type data of the first type data for reproducing moving picture information and the second type data for providing additional functions using the moving picture information. Accordingly, a storage medium having a function of reproducing moving picture information and / or additional functions can be reproduced regardless of the type of reproducing apparatus.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 2003-76490 filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on Oct. 30, 2003, which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to reproduction from a storage medium, and in particular, to a moving image reproducing device in which player mode information indicating which data types can be reproduced by the reproducing device is set, a reproducing method using the same, and a storage medium. Background technique [0003] Moving picture data recorded on a general storage medium includes compressed and coded moving picture information and navigation information for controlling reproduction of the moving picture information. [0004] The moving picture information includes an audio-visual stream including video, audio, and / or subtitles encoded according to the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) stan...

Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, conventional storage media in which moving images are recorded cannot provide additional functions other than the reproduction function of moving image information, such as program functions that provide user interaction functions and browsing functions

[0007] Also, even if the storage medium provides functions other than reproduction of moving image information, a conventional reproducing device having only a function of reproducing moving image information cannot reproduce a storage medium including additional information.

Therefore, the compatibility between reproduction devices and storage media is low
