Current BD specification prescribes that in an ADIP an address is expressed with 21 bits, 19 to indicate the corresponding RUB number, and 2 to be set to 00, 01 and 10 consecutively in the 3 successive ADIP corresponding to one RUB, the smallest addressable portion of data on a disc. From this it derives that at most 32.2GB of storage space can be addressed. Due to recent developments however, a storage capacity of 35 GB per layer could be achieved. According to the invention, one or more bits are added to the 21 bits currently allocated to express an address. This additional bits however are not stored in the ADIP but left implicit, exempting from a heavy deviation from the current BD encoding rules. The additional bits are reconstructed by an apparatus on the basis of the position on the information carrier where the corresponding RUB is present.
