An attempt is made to make it possible to efficiently perform the finalizing process and closing process in a short period of time and securely manage the last address of a border-out. When the border closing or finalizing process is performed after user data is recorded, a padding process is performed for at least a discontinuous area in the data area and a border-out is lastly recorded in a first step. Then, in a second step, latest recording management data (RMD) is recorded in a recording management data duplication zone (RDZ) of a data lead-in area, latest recording management data (RMD) is recorded in an unrecorded area of a present recording management zone (RMZ) and R physical format information (R-PFI) is recorded in an R physical format information zone (R-PFIZ).

There is provided an information storage medium capable of highly reliable defect management, even if the medium has relatively low resistance to overwriting. The information storage medium comprises a defect management area in which defect management information on a replacing process is recorded, a spare area for defect management information on the defect management area, and an area in which a DMA manager for managing the replacing process using the spare area for defect management information is recorded.

Reproduction signals include patterns for which recognition errors are likely. With respect to such patterns, probable error patterns are prepared. Tables showing correct patterns and error patterns are prepared, and evaluation values accurately representing signal quality are calculated. In an apparatus using a PRML method, discrimination data and a plurality of predetermined bit sequence pairs are examined to detect matching. A bit sequence and corresponding two ideal responses are calculated. Euclidean distances between the two ideal responses and equalization signals are obtained, and the difference between the Euclidean distances is further obtained. A quality evaluation value of a reproduction signal is calculated based on a mean value, a standard deviation, an appearance probability of the predetermined bit sequence, and a Hamming distance between the predetermined bit sequence pairs.

A content playback apparatus includes an SKF selecting unit that selects one segment key file from plural segment key files recorded in a DVD media at a time of playback of a content of the sequence key section, a data selecting unit that selects each content corresponding to a segment number of each key entry registered in the selected segment key file, a moving picture data decrypting unit that decrypts the selected moving picture data by a segment key corresponding to the segment number, and a decoder that plays back the decrypted moving picture data.
摘要:
A signal can be detected based on a level slice system and detection delay time can be reduced by setting the recording density of a header field in a linear direction lower (coarse) than that of a user data recording field. Further, a signal can be detected based on the level slice system and detection delay time can be reduced by using a mark position form having a large detection margin as an information recording system of the header field. A readout error of a sector number due to a detection error is compensated for by recording address marks AM for attaining byte synchronization of the header field in both of a head portion and tail portion of information recorded in the header field.
