METHOD FOR DISPLAYING AN AVAILABLE LANGUAGE RELATED TO CONTENTS RECORDED ON A RECORDING MEDIUM, CONCERNED WITH CONFIRMING AVAILABLE LANGUAGES AT A TIME

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for displaying an available language related to contents recorded on a recording medium is provided to determine a display order of confirmed available languages, and to display names of each available language as individual menu items. CONSTITUTION: A controller reads recorded management information, and stores the read information(S10), and confirms languages supported from an optical disk(S11). The controller configures menu items corresponding to each language(S12), and determines a display order of each menu item(S13). An OSD unit outputs the menu items to display the menu items according to the display order(S14). The controller visually differentiates one menu item from other menu items(S15). If a user selects a language while the one menu item is activated(S16), the controller sets a language code to an active language code(S17). A voice and/or a caption of a desired language is presented(S18). If a language key is inputted(S19), the controller reconfigures menu items(S12).
