| 1. A decoding method, comprising:
detecting a synchronization code inserted at a position selected from a plurality of synchronization code inserting positions,
the plurality of synchronization code inserting positions being positioned at periodic intervals in an input code string,
the input code string including a multiplexed code string and information indicative of a delimiter of the multiplexed code
string, the information being arranged just after the multiplexed code string or between the multiplexed code string and a
subsequent synchronization code, the information including a stuffing code having a bit length between one and eight bits,
a start bit of the stuffing code having a first value, and if a subsequent bit of the stuffing code is present, the subsequent
bit having a second value that is different than the first value;
demultiplexing said input code string on the basis of the position of the synchronization code detected by said detecting,
to produce kinds of compressed codes; and
decoding said compressed codes to output a reconstructed signal, each of the kinds of compressed codes being a variable length
code.
