Data Processing Device, Data Processing Method, Program, Program Recording Medium, Data Recording Medium, and Data Structure
A display mode for subtitle data is controlled and changed. At step S 347 , it is determined whether a display mode for subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from a default display mode corresponding to configurable_flag representing whether the display mode for the subtitle data is permitted to be changed from the default display system. configurable_flag is contained in StaticInfo( ) of subtitle data of StaticInfo( ) describing information that does not vary while each of data multiplexed with a program stream is being reproduced. Each of data multiplexed with the program stream is contained in meta data about the program stream. When the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted from being changed from the default display mode, the flow advances to step S 350 . At step S 350 , a display process for the subtitle data is performed corresponding to a subtitle data display mode change command. The present invention can be applied for example to a game machine and so forth that use a DVD.
1 . A data processing apparatus that processes record data recorded on a data recording medium
the record data containing:
multiplexed data in which at least subtitle data have been multiplexed, and
meta data about the multiplexed data
the meta data containing static information designated for each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data the static information not varying while each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data is being reproduced,
the static information of the subtitle data containing permission information representing whether a display mode for the subtitle data has been permitted to be changed from a default display mode,
the data processing apparatus comprising:
capture means for capturing the static information of the subtitle data while the subtitle data are being reproduced;
determination means for determining whether the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode corresponding to the permission information contained in the static information captured by the capture means; and
display process means for performing a display process for the subtitle data corresponding to a display mode change command when the determination result of the determination means represents that the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode.
2 . The data processing apparatus as set forth in claim 1
wherein the display process means performs the display process for the subtitle data corresponding to a subtitle data enlargement command, a subtitle data reduction command, or a subtitle data display position change command.
3 . A data processing method of processing record data recorded on a data recording medium,
the record data containing:
multiplexed data in which at least subtitle data have been multiplexed and
meta data about the multiplexed data,
the meta data containing static information designated for each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data the static information not varying while each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data is being reproduced,
the static information of the subtitle data containing permission information representing whether a display mode for the subtitle data has been permitted to be changed from a default display mode,
the data processing method comprising the steps of:
capturing the static information of the subtitle data while the subtitle data are being reproduced;
determining whether the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode corresponding to the permission information contained in the static information captured at the capture step; and
performing a display process for the subtitle data corresponding to a display mode change command when the determination result at the determination step represents that the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode.
4 . A program that causes a computer to perform a data process of processing record data recorded on a data recording medium,
the record data containing:
multiplexed data in which at least subtitle data have been multiplexed, and
meta data about the multiplexed data,
the meta data containing static information designated for each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data, the static information not varying while each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data is being reproduced,
the static information of the subtitle data containing permission information representing whether a display mode for the subtitle data has been permitted to be changed from a default display mode,
the data process comprising the steps of:
capturing the static information of the subtitle data while the subtitle data are being reproduced;
determining whether the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode corresponding to the permission information contained in the static information captured at the capture step; and
performing a display process for the subtitle data corresponding to a display mode change command when the determination result at the determination step represents that the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode.
5 . A program recording medium on which a program has been recorded, the program causing a computer to perform a data process of processing record data recorded on a data recording medium,
the record data containing:
multiplexed data in which at least subtitle data have been multiplexed, and
meta data about the multiplexed data
the meta data containing static information designated for each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data, the static information not varying while each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data is being reproduced,
the static information of the subtitle data containing permission information representing whether a display mode for the subtitle data has been permitted to be changed from a default display mode,
the data process comprising the steps of:
capturing the static information of the subtitle data while the subtitle data are being reproduced;
determining whether the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode corresponding to the permission information contained in the static information captured at the capture step; and
performing a display process for the subtitle data corresponding to a display mode change command when the determination result at the determination step represents that the display mode for the subtitle data that are being reproduced has been permitted to be changed from the default display mode.
6 . A data recording medium on which record data have been recorded,
the record data containing:
multiplexed data in which at least subtitle data have been multiplexed, and
meta data about the multiplexed data,
the meta data containing static information designated for each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data, the static information not varying while each unit of data multiplexed in the multiplexed data is being reproduced,
the static information of the subtitle data containing permission information representing whether a display mode for the subtitle data has been permitted to be changed from a default display mode.
7 . A data structure for data containing:
multiplexed data in which at least subtitle data have been multiplexed, and
meta data about the multiplexed data,
