Embodiment
Design of the present invention is as follows: it is different with the describing mode of Play Control information (navigation information) that different disk formats is treated the descriptor of play content (meta-data).A CD that does not have specific format can be play according to specific format, and just needing becomes descriptor and the Play Control information that meets specific format accordingly with the descriptor and the Play Control information translation of the content to be played on this CD.According to descriptor that meets specific format and Play Control information this CD can be play according to specific format.
In the following description, will a CD that does not have generic logic format can be described according to the generic logic format broadcast for example.Generic disc (Generic Disc) is that Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V is 1506949 at publication number, application number is 02156141.9, and the applying date is a kind of disk format that proposes in the Chinese patent application " CD with generic logic format " on Dec 12nd, 2002.This optical disc logic format is independent of physical format, generic logic format file (as index file) wherein includes the corresponding descriptor to the content to be played on the CD, be used for explaining CD content to be played to disk player, so that Disc player can play according to the requirement of each content to be played, and the physical format that is no longer dependent on CD is play.The disk player of generic logic format can be supported the broadcast application file of generic logic format, and therefore the playing platform of the Java Virtual Machine that provides support operation can be used to play the CD with generic logic format.
Fig. 1 is the process flow diagram that makes the embodiment of the method that CD can play according to the certain logic form according to of the present invention.Support whether certain logic form (step S110) of form that the playing device of specific format (as generic logic format) will at first judge CD.Usually, according to the format specification of CD, the information of corresponding description disk format is arranged all generally on CD, for example, in read-only optical disc, playing device will be judged the kind of disc by the relevant information of being stored in the file system that reads Lead-In Area.By the judgement to disk format, can disk player can be determined and directly play CD content according to specific format.
If the form of CD is not specific format (as a generic disc), promptly playing device can not be play this CD content according to common player method, and playing device will be retrieved canned data on the CD (step S120) so.By retrieval, the descriptor of the content to be played that playing device can obtain storing on the CD and Play Control information etc., for example, the tabulation of content to be played and some descriptors etc. on the storage directory of information, the CD on the CD.
Then, playing device obtains the descriptor (step S130) of Play Control information and content to be played from retrieving information.Play Control information on the CD comprises catalogue file, dvd playback sequential file, light disk retrieval file etc.These information have important navigation function for the broadcast of CD.In addition, in the disc making process, there are some descriptors to reflect information such as the storage feature of content to be played and broadcast request usually.These descriptors comprise coded format, sharpness, broadcast zero-time, play concluding time, mean bit rate, synchronizing information, broadcast order etc., also comprise decoded information (for example decoding process, the required application program of decoding and Application Type etc.).
In step S130, the information that obtain comprises that those are according to the required information of specific format broadcast CD, as coded format, synchronizing information, broadcast order etc.
Then, according to the code requirement of particular optical disc format (as generic logic format), playing device is converted into the descriptor (step S140) that meets specific format with the descriptor of the content to be played obtained.In the different disk formats, the descriptor of program to be broadcast has different describing modes, therefore, a CD that does not have specific format can be play according to specific format, the descriptor that just need will not meet specific format converts to and meets specific format.To the conversion of descriptor can be conversion to the describing mode of program to be broadcast characteristic information or broadcast request.For example, on the CD of a SVCD (Super VCD) form, the descriptor of content to be played is to be described in the mode that meets the SVCD form, if play this CD according to generic logic format, the desired describing mode of Play Control file (XML file, i.e. Extensible Markup Language file) that so just needs the various descriptors on this CD are converted to according to generic logic format is described.
Then, according to descriptor that meets specific format that is converted to and the Play Control information obtained from CD, generate the Play Control information (step S150) that meets specific format.The broadcast process of Play Control information Control program and control reproduction time, position relation of each program etc.In the playing programs process, the Play Control file need call corresponding program according to the descriptor of program.Different disk formats also is different to the description of Play Control information, and CD can be play according to specific format, need meet and meet specific format Play Control information accordingly.Generally include the Play Control file in the Play Control information, as in generic logic format, Play Control information comprises the XML file that meets generic logic format.
The Play Control file that meets specific format can generate as follows.The template of the Play Control file that meets particular optical disc format can prestore in playing device.In transfer process, playing device can meet the template of the Play Control file that meets specific format that the descriptor of specific format prestored according to joining of correspondences such as attribute and feature with the Play Control information obtained from CD with through conversion, thereby generates the Play Control file.Certainly, can also change by other modes, for example according to the specification and requirement of particular optical disc format, the code requirement of employed language, and the attribute of the information of being obtained etc. makes information of obtaining from CD and the descriptor that meets specific format after conversion generate the Play Control information that meets specific format.
In the XML of generic logic format Play Control file, the original Play Control information of obtaining from CD and the descriptor of content to be played will be organized layout according to the code requirement of generic logic format and the requirement of broadcast process (time and position relation), so that content to be played can be play according to specific format and according to time of determining and position relation.
At last, play CD (step S160) according to the Play Control information that meets specific format that generates.Because the content to be played that does not meet particular optical disc format on the CD, the conversion by descriptor and meet the generation of the file of particular optical disc format can be received by disk player, so can be play by this disk player.
If the content to be played on the CD is fewer, for example have only a content to be played, playing device only needs just can generate the Play Control file that meets specific format according to the descriptor that meets the content to be played of specific format after conversion.If the program on the CD is many, just not only needs according to the descriptor that after conversion, meets specific format so usually, but also need to generate the dvd playback control documents according to the Play Control information of obtaining from CD.
