PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To read and decode each piece of information for composing subtitle image data and a menu screen display appropriately from a recording medium. ; SOLUTION: A segment that is a component of a subtitle and a menu screen is accumulated in a CDB 110, and is read from the CDB 110 by DTS and decoded. An upper limit N of the number of segments that can be stored is prescribed in the CDB 110. At least one segment is outputted from the CDB 110 until a next segment SegSB#m/SBis supplied to the CDB 110 to prevent the upper limit N from being exceeded in the CDB 110. When the time RTSB#m/SBfor storing the segment SegSB#m/SBin the CDB 110 is the future time to DTSSB#n/SBof the segment SegSB#n/SBoutputted earliest to the CDB 110, the number of segments stored in the CDB 110 does not exceed the upper limit N when the segment SegSB#m/SBis supplied to the CDB 110. ; COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT.
