An optical disc includes a data area for recording a plurality of video
segments and an index area for recording original type chain information
and user-defined type chain information. The original type chain
information defines an original type chain including first ones of the
video segments by describing a reproduction order of the first video
segments. The user-defined type chain information defines a user-defined
type chain including second ones of the video segments by describing a
reproduction order of the second video segments. The first video segments
are positioned in the data area in the reproduction order of the first
video segments whereas the second video segments are positioned in the
data area independently of the reproduction order of the second video
segments.
