A method for generating an on-screen menu comprising menu buttons and other menu items, e.g. help text, comprises one or more groups of menu buttons or menu items are defined, wherein a group comprises one or more menu buttons or menu items and has associated a defined area on the screen. A state is assigned to a button, the state being “enabled” or “disabled”, wherein only an enabled button or item may be displayed, and wherein within a group not more than one button or item may be enabled. The state of a button can be changed by commands associated with other buttons.

A method for generating an interactive electronic menu on a display, the menu comprising menu items, wherein a menu item may be in a deselected, selected or activated state, and the menu being coded into a menu data segment, comprises that at least a first and a second menu item are connected by a parent-child relationship, wherein the second menu item being a child of the first menu item can only be selected when the first menu item is selected, and further comprises that the first and the second menu item are coded into the same data segment. The method is preferably usable for menus relating to content of digital storage media, such as optical discs, in particular read-only Blu-ray discs.

A method for modifying data read from read-only media during playback time comprises logically merging the on-disc directory tree and an associated off-disc directory tree. A logical directory tree is constructed from the data retrieved from the read-only medium, wherein the structure of the logical directory tree is identical with the structure of the directory tree of the medium. The method allows replacing content on the disc through downloaded content, e.g. replacing an out-dated trailer stored on the disc through a downloaded trailer for a new movie. The method further allows complementing or upgrading content on the disc, e.g. by downloading a new subtitle track from the internet.

Consumer electronic devices, such as e.g. high-definition movie players for removable storage media such as optical discs, may provide possibilities for advanced interactivity for the user, implemented as software applications. A question arising generally with such software applications is what the life cycle of such an application is, and who may control it. The invention provides a method for executing software applications within a playback device for audio-video data, wherein data from a first removable storage medium are read for a software application to be executed within said playback device, and the data comprise an indication defining a termination condition for the application. Based on said termination code and depending on how the medium holding the application is ejected, the application is terminated or may survive.

The invention is related to a device for presenting, an image frame by help of a set of displaying commands wherein a displaying command comprises a displaying area and a displaying content.The device comprises means for adapting a first and/or a second displaying command set such that an adapted displaying command sets comprises displaying areas which do not intersect with any displaying area of the same set. Furthermore, the displaying areas of an adapted set cover a display area the image frames are displayed on. The device further determines displaying commands of the adapted second set not comprised in the adapted first set. Then, the determined displaying commands are executed.Adaptation makes comparison of displaying commands suitable for excluding areas from displaying/blitting/clearing.

The invention addresses the objective of optimizing performance of a media data carrier interpreting device. This is achieved by a media data carrier interpreting device which comprises means for transforming a machine- interpretable instruction comprised in a media data carrier into a machine-executable code during media content presentation. Said media data carrier comprises a set of machine-interpretable instructions generated according to a method which comprises the steps of generating a first auxiliary set of instructions corresponding to a set of elements wherein the elements are conform with a template and compiling said first auxiliary instruction set. Then, said compiled first auxiliary instruction set is linked with a compiled second auxiliary instruction set corresponding to said template. This method removes the need for runtime parsing and therefore frees processing capacity for runtime transformation of the machine-interpretable instructions into machine-executable code.
