Method and an apparatus for reproducing bitstream having non-sequential system clock data seamlessly therebetween
First Claim
1. A reproduction method for reproducing an optical disc containing a first area containing at least one cell, a second area containing at least one cell, and a management information area operable to record management information, wherein the management information contains first data operable to indicate whether or not a second cell, which is a specific cell in the second area, shall be presented seamlessly after presentation of a first cell, which is a specific cell in the first area, said reproduction method comprising:
- reading the management information and the first and second cells from the optical disc; and
determining based on the first data, whether or not to present the second cell seamlessly after presentation of the first cell.

Abstract
A system stream contiguous reproduction apparatus to which are input one or more system streams interleaving at least moving picture data and audio data, and system stream connection information includes a system clock STC generator for producing the system clock that is used as the system stream reproduction reference clock. The system stream contiguous reproduction apparatus further includes one or more signal processing decoders that operate referenced to the system clock STC, decoder buffers for temporarily storing the system stream data transferred to the corresponding signal processing decoders, and STC selectors for selecting a system clock STC referenced by the signal processing decoders when decoding the first system stream, and another system clock STC referenced by the signal processing decoders when decoding a second system stream reproduced contiguously to the first system stream.

3. A machine readable optical disc comprising:
-
a first area containing at least one cell;
a second area containing at least one cell; and
a management information area operable to record management information, wherein the management information contains information operable to indicate, when said optical disc is read by a machine, whether or not a second cell, which is a specific cell in the second area, shall be presented seamlessly after presentation of a first cell, which is a specific cell in the first area.
