20090202228 | INTEGRATED CIRCUIT OR USE IN PLAYBACK APPARATUS - An integrated circuit includes a storage that stores a module that has a function of a virtual machine for executing an application recorded on a recording medium. The integrated circuit also includes a central processing unit that executes the module to cause the virtual machine to function and a decoder, that is distinct from the central processing unit, that decodes a video stream and an audio stream that are included in digital streams stored on a recording media. When the central processing unit executes the module, a package manager manages status information of the digital streams. If at least one of the digital streams is in an enable status, the decoder decodes the digital stream. When the decoder decodes the digital stream, the package manager changes the status information of another digital stream to an enable status or a disable status according to a request from the application. | 08-13-2009 |
20100014580 | PLAYBACK APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING APPLICATION- SYNCHRONIZED PLAYBACK - An integrated circuit stores a module that executes applications that play digital streams. When the module is executed, the integrated circuit generates package information by merging files recorded on a first recording medium and a second recording medium, in accordance with merge management information, detects a plurality of playable titles from the package information, and selects one of the detected titles as a current title. The integrated circuit executes the application associated with the current title, and the executed application makes a request to update the generated package information by specifying new merge management information. The integrated circuit changes a file referenced from the newly specified merge management information to read-only before updating the package information, and at a point at which digital stream playback stops due to a current title change, the integrated circuit generates new package information by combining files recorded on the first and second recording media, in accordance with the newly specified merge management information. | 01-21-2010 |

20100046912 | RECORDING MEDIUM, REPRODUCTION DEVICE, PROGRAM, REPRODUCTION METHOD - A BD-ROM contains PlayList information. The PlayList information defines a reproduction section for each of a plurality of AV Clips and contains MainPath information and SubPath information. The MainPath information specifies one of the AV Clips as the MainClip and defines a main reproduction section for the MainClip. The SubPath information specifies another one of the AV Clips as the SubClip and defines a sub-reproduction section to be synchronized with the main reproduction section for the SubClip. The BD-ROM contains those AV Clips specifies as SubClips while being correlated with EP_map. The EP_map correlates and indicates the entry time in the time axis of the SubClip with a plurality of entry positions in the SubClip. | 02-25-2010 |

20100142930 | PLAYBACK APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING APPLICATION-SYNCHRONIZED PLAYBACK - A playback apparatus for playing a digital stream in conjunction with an application includes a package management unit operable to generate package information by merging files recorded on a first recording medium and a second recording medium, in accordance with merge management information, and a selection unit operable to detect a plurality of playable titles from the package information, and select one of the detected titles as a current title. After the application requests the package management unit to update the merge management information, by specifying new merge management information, the package management unit changes a file referenced from the newly specified merge management information to read-only before updating the package information, and at a point at which digital stream playback stops due to a current title change by the selection unit, the package management unit generates new package information by combining files recorded on the first and second recording media, in accordance with the newly specified merge management information. | 06-10-2010 |
20110064374 | RECORDING MEDIUM, REPRODUCTION DEVICE, PROGRAM, REPRODUCTION METHOD - A BD-ROM stores PlayList information. The PlayList information defines a playback section of each of a plurality of AV clips and includes MainPath information and SubPath information. The MainPath information designates one of the AV clips as a Main Clip and defines a portion of the Main Clip as a primary playback section. The SubPath information designates another one of the AV clips as a SubClip and defines a portion of the SubClip as a secondary playback section that is to be played back in synchronism with the primary playback section. The BD-ROM stores, the one of the AV clips designated as the SubClip along with an EP_map. The EP_map shows a plurality of entry points on the SubClip in a one-to-one correspondence with entry times on the SubClip timeline. | 03-17-2011 |
20110064382 | RECORDING MEDIUM, REPRODUCTION DEVICE, PROGRAM, REPRODUCTION METHOD - A BD-ROM stores PlayList information. The PlayList information defines a playback section of each of a plurality of AV clips and includes MainPath information and SubPath information. The MainPath information designates one of the AV clips as a Main Clip and defines a portion of the Main Clip as a primary playback section. The SubPath information designates another one of the AV clips as a SubClip and defines a portion of the SubClip as a secondary playback section that is to be played back in synchronism with the primary playback section. The BD-ROM stores, the one of the AV clips designated as the SubClip along with an EP_map. The EP_map shows a plurality of entry points on the SubClip in a one-to-one correspondence with entry times on the SubClip timeline. | 03-17-2011 |
