- the AV reproducing engine 2 is communicated with the ENAV engine 3 through an Application Program Interface (API). That is, the AV reproducing engine 2 informs the ENAV engine 3 of a property indicating a status of the AV reproducing engine 2 in response to a request sent from the ENAV engine 3, and sends a trigger to the ENAV engine 3. For example, in a case where a corresponding quiz is displayed on an interactive screen simultaneously with a battle scene while a movie, such as "Starwars," is shown in an interactive mode, the trigger informs the ENAV engine 3 of related information when the battle scene is displayed.
- API Application Program Interface
- the ENAV engine 3 reproduces the ENAV files. Particularly, in the present embodiment, the ENAV engine 3 verifies, interprets, and executes a markup document as an ENAV file in order that the DVD-Video data recorded on the DVD 100 can be reproduced in the interactive mode. Also, the ENAV engine 3 blends and outputs a reproduced DVD-Video stream and an interpreted markup document. Accordingly, a picture in which an AV picture is embedded in an interactive picture is displayed on the display apparatus 300. Meanwhile, the ENAV engine 3 can include various plug-ins. Plug-ins are used to open various formats of files included in the markup document or linked with the markup document. For example, to reproduce AV data for a window media player, the ENAV engine 3 can call up the window media player. Also, the ENAV engine 3 accesses a network and can get desired information such as the ENAV file.
- the ENAV engine 3 parses language information recorded on a startup file, compares the language information with player language information recorded on a system parameter table, and selects a corresponding loading information file according to the compared result.
- the loading information file includes a list of ENAV files that should be buffered in advance or during reproducing for seamless reproduction.
- the ENAV engine 3 buffers ENAV files according to a selected loading information file in a buffer (not shown) included in the ENAV engine 3 and then interprets and executes from an initial file of the ENAV files.

That is, the reproducing apparatus 200 selects the ENAV application with reference to the values stored in SPRM 18.
- SPRMs 21 through 23 are reserved areas. Accordingly, the present embodiment records the player language information (Initial Language Code) in a format defined in the ISO-639 standard on one among the empty SPRMs, for example, on SPRM 21.
- the value of SPRM 21 can also be changed only when the reproducing apparatus is initialized and cannot be changed while the reproducing apparatus is being reproduced or operated.
- FIG. 10 is a view explaining the data structure of the player language information recorded as the system parameter of FIG. 9.
- the player language information is recorded using 2 bytes allocated to SPRM 21.
- the remaining bits not used in recording the language information thereon are reserved and can be used to store other information.
- SPRM 21 can be recorded in a format defined in the ISO-639 standard or according to other standards.
- FIG. 11 is a flowchart explaining a reproduction method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- the reproducing apparatus 200 checks a startup file stored in a directory DVD_ENAV and determines whether the loaded disk is an ENAV DVD 100 (operation 1101 ). If the reproducing apparatus 200 cannot find a startup file, the reproducing apparatus 200 determines whether the loaded disk is a conventional DVD-Video disk (operation 1102). If the loaded disk is a DVD-Video disk, the reproducing apparatus 200 reproduces the disk in a video mode (operation 1103). The reproducing apparatus 200 does not reproduce the disk if the disk is another type of disk.
- the reproducing apparatus 200 finds a startup file and determines that the loaded disk is the ENAV disk 100 (operation 1101) and if a user selects a video mode, the reproducing apparatus 200 reproduces the loaded disk in the video mode (operation 1103). If the user selects an interactive mode (operation 1104), the reproducing apparatus 200 reads the startup file (operation 1105), reads language information recorded on the startup file, and reads a loading information file corresponding to player language information recorded on a system parameter table (operation 1106). Then, the reproducing apparatus 200 buffers ENAV files listed in the read loading information file (operation 1107), interprets and executes from a first ENAV file, and reproduces selected AV data in the interactive mode (operation 1108).
- the present invention provides an information storage medium, having a data structure capable of selecting additional contents made with a language selected by a user or with a predetermined language and reproducing AV data in an interactive mode when an information storage medium storing AV data is reproduced, and a reproducing apparatus and reproducing method thereof.
- the reproducing apparatus can select an ENAV application to be first executed in the interactive mode and reproduce the selected ENAV application with a language readable by a user.
- the above-described reproducing method may be embodied as a program on a computer readable medium including, but not limited to storage media, such as magnetic storage media (e.g., ROM's, floppy disks, hard disks, etc.), optically readable media (e.g., CD- ROMs, DVDs, etc.) and carrier waves (e.g., transmissions over the Internet).
- storage media such as magnetic storage media (e.g., ROM's, floppy disks, hard disks, etc.), optically readable media (e.g., CD- ROMs, DVDs, etc.) and carrier waves (e.g., transmissions over the Internet).
