Provided are a method and apparatus for reproducing digital broadcasting. The method includes parsing an input video stream to extract a presentation time stamp (PTS) and a compressed frame and decoding the extracted compressed frame to generate frames sequentially. If a PTS corresponding to a current frame does not exist, a virtual PTS is generated based on the extracted PTS The extracted PTS or the virtual PTS is compared with a system time clock (STC) in synchronization with a vertical synchronization signal and an output time of a display frame is determined.
