Abstract
The computer readable medium stores an executable data structure for managing reproduction of text by a reproducing apparatus. The data structure includes at least one text subtitle stream having a style segment and at least one presentation segment. The style segment defines a group of region styles, and the presentation segment contains at least one region of text. The region of text is linked to a selected one of the group of region styles defined in the style segment by an identifier. The style segment and the at least one presentation segment are encapsulated into respective PES packets. The presentation segment contains a continuous presentation flag indicating whether continuous presentation is required for the presentation segment with a previous presentation segment. A presentation start time of the presentation segment is equal to presentation end time of the previous presentation segment when continuous presentation is required for the presentation segment with the previous presentation segment.
