Method of recording encoded bit flow and apparatus for recording the bit flow

摘要

A method of recording an encoded bit stream, the encoded bit stream representing a plurality of video objects comprising a sequence of cells together constituting a part of an MPEG2 Program Stream, on a disc like record carrier, such as an optical disc. The method comprising recording video objects comprising a sequence of contiguously recorded cells, each cell comprising a unique cell identification number within a video object, recording a playback sequence of cells defining a playable program chain of cells, wherein the sequence comprises references to the cell identification numbers and recording navigation data within the cells comprising an end time of presentation of the corresponding video object. The method further comprises recording at the end of a video object a dummy cell that is not being referenced by a playback sequence.
