Method and an optical disc for generating a bitstream containing a plurality of video objects including video and audio data
First Claim
1. A bit stream generating method for generating a bit stream containing a plurality of video objects (VOB) including video data and audio data stored on an optical disc (M), wherein said video object (VOB) enables one video object (VOB) to be alternatively reproduced from among m video objects (VOB), said method comprising:
- selecting m video objects (VOB) each having a same video data presentation period and same audio data,segmenting each of the selected m video objects (VOB) into a same v number of interleave units (ILVU), andgenerating a bit stream wherein the segmented video object interleave units (ILVUij) are interleaved in a sequence

Abstract
An interleaving method for the presentation of a bitstream that is reproduced by selecting two or more data units from a bitstream comprising three or more data units contiguous on the same time-base. The bitstream is generated by arranging the selected data units in a particular sequence on the same time-base based on the presentation time of each data unit so that it is possible to sequentially access all data units and present only the selected data units without time-base intermittence, and is characterized by dividing the data units into shortest-read-time data units. The bitstream is generated by arranging the shortest-read-time data units in a particular sequence on the same time-base based on the shortest read time in each shortest-read-time data unit so that it is possible to sequentially access all shortest-read-time data units and present only the shortest-read-time data units of the selected data units without time-base intermittence. The presentation time of each shortest-read-time data unit is the same.
