Abstract
In the data structure for managing reproduction of various data streams, a playlist includes at least one playitem and at least one subpath. The playitem includes management information for managing reproduction of main data recorded on the recording medium, and the subpath includes at least one subplayitem. The subplayitem includes management information for managing reproduction of supplemental data recorded on the recording medium, and the subplayitem includes a synchronization data field for providing synchronizing information to synchronize reproduction of the supplemental data with reproduction of the main data. Also, the subpath includes a type indicator that indicates the type of the supplemental data managed by the subpath and signifies whether the synchronizing information is valid.
