ABSTRACT:
A sub-picture restoring method and apparatus defined in the specification of a commercialized digital video disk (DVD) system is provided. A bit stream buffer (33) stores the sub-picture data and a color lookup table of the compression-encoded bit stream. A run-length decoder (35) decodes the pixel data in the sub-picture data and outputs two bit data representing a pixel type (e.g., background pixel, character pixel, edge emphasis pixel, etc.). An index generator (36) outputs the color index and contrast value of the corresponding pixel according to the pixel type. A color controller (37) outputs a color of a table position designated by the color index input from the loaded color lookup table. A controller (34) loads the color lookup table stored in the bit stream buffer, analyzes various commands in the display control sequence table of the sub-picture data in order to control the decoding execution, stop and output for the run-length decoder in a match for a display area, and outputs the color index and contrast information with respect to each pixel to the index generator.
