Abstract:
1. A method of reproducing still picture data and audio data from a recording medium, comprising: decoding, by a reproducing apparatus, the still picture data in a first stream file and the audio data in a second stream file based on respective, independent system times (STCs), the first stream file not including audio data, the still picture data being reproduced as a slideshow, the audio data being reproduced with the still picture data; outputting the decoded still picture data based on the respective still picture STC and presentation time stamps (PTSs) in the still picture data; and outputting the decoded audio data based on the respective audio STC and PTSs in the audio data; wherein the outputting of the decoded audio data is not synchronized with the outputting of the decoded still picture data when the decoded audio data is output with the decoded still picture data, the audio data being reproduced without interrupting the reproducing of the still picture data as the slideshow, and wherein the PTSs are associated with entry points of the respective decoded still picture data and audio data.
