摘要:
Recordable areas are recorded such that, if a recordable area exists on the outermost position of the disc, it is made into the head recordable area. The other recordable areas are linked from the inner peripheral side toward the outer peripheral side in order of address. With this method, the audio-recording is executed such that the segment division is minimized and the distance between segments is minimized. This makes it possible to shorten the segment access time and minimize the number of accessing operations required. In this way, sound-interruption and the deterioration of the shock-proof function in reproducing action can be prevented.

There is provided a disc recording apparatus for recording digital data by an optical unit in such a manner that time compressed digital data are arranged into a plurality of clusters at an interval of a predetermined number of sectors, a cluster-linking sector having a length longer than an interleaving length is provided at each linking part of each cluster, and the digital data are subsequently interleaved and recorded on a disc-shaped recording medium so that interleaving at the time of data recording on the cluster-by-cluster basis is within the range of the cluster-linking sector. There is also provided a disc reproducing apparatus for reproducing digital data by an optical unit in which playback data are obtained by reproducing record data recorded on a disc-shaped recording medium in such a manner that a cluster-linking sector longer than an interleaving length is provided in a linking section of each cluster composed of a predetermined number of sectors, the resulting data is interleaved and recorded on the disc-shaped recording medium, and the playback data are deinterleaved and freed or the cluster-linking sectors so as to be stored transiently in a storage unit. Playback data are written in the storage unit when the data volume of playback data stored in the storage unit becomes smaller than a predetermined volume to maintain a readout space in the storage unit which is in excess of the predetermined data volume. In this manner, data may be read out continuously from the storage unit at a predetermined rate without interrupting the reproducing operation at the cluster-linking sector of the data recorded on the medium.

A recording apparatus for recording data in individual blocks each made of plural given regions on an optical disc is disclosed. The recording apparatus may have (i) a detection portion which detects a finally recorded region on the disc by detecting for each of the given regions as to whether or not data is recorded and (ii) a recording control portion which records dummy data from a region next to the finally recorded region detected by the detection portion to the final region of a block located behind the finally recorded region by at least one region and then starting to record data from the head region of the subsequent block.

A reproduction apparatus and method a recording apparatus and method by which two different kinds of data can be reproduced and recorded efficiently are disclosed. When main data are intermittently read in from a recording medium, periods within which reading in of the main data is not performed appear inevitably, and the periods are made use of to read in sub data from the recording medium, thereby allowing synchronized reproduction of the main data and the sub data which relate to the main data. On the other hand, when main data are intermittently written onto a recording medium, periods within which writing of the main data is not performed appear inevitably, and the periods are made use of to write sub data onto the recording medium, thereby allowing parallel recording of the main data and the sub data.
摘要:
A reproducing apparatus in which a reproduction signal reproduced from a recording medium is temporarily stored in a memory and is thereafter read out, and in which, when the amount of accumulation of the reproduction signal stored in the memory becomes equal to or larger than a predetermined value, a function of at least one section of the reproducing apparatus is inhibited. A part of at least one of a program read out from the memory before the inhibition of the above-mentioned function and other programs before and after the program read out from the memory is previously stored in the memory. Therefore, even if an access to such a program is requested while the function of the related section of the reproducing apparatus is inhibited, the part of the program can be read out to immediately obtain the desired reproduction output.

A data encoder wherein the outputs of a synchronization data generating means 51, a cluster counter 52, a sector counter 53, a recording data output means 56 and a dummy data generating means 55 are selected by a selector 57 to provide an output. A selector control means 59 is constituted to control the selector 57 to output a data group (cluster) which is one recording unit formed of the predetermined number of sectors in the predetermined format by controlling the selector 57 in a predetermined timing depending on a Link signal based on the sector counter 53 and a count value of the byte counter 60. The processing load shared on a microcomputer, which is controlling the recording operation, can thus be alleviated remarkably.

A high speed dubbing is to be realized with two recording and/or reproducing units for compressed data. To this end, a magneto-optical disc 32 is read by an optical head 33 and compressed data produced via a decoder 41 are delivered to a memory 14 via a switch 37. The data are then delivered to a magnetic head driving circuit 16 via an encoder 15 for direct writing on a magneto-optical disc 2. In this manner, compressed data are directly dubbed without expansion to realize high speed dubbing.

A recording and/or reproducing apparatus having a memory controller which controls a write-in and read-out operation of data into the memory. When data are recorded on a disc-shaped recording medium by the recording and/or reproducing unit, the memory controller time-divisionally stores into a first storage area of a memory the data which will be recorded on the disc-shaped recording medium by the recording and/or reproducing unit while simultaneously time-divisionally storing into a second storage area of the memory management data for the disc-shaped recording medium which are read out by the recording and/or reproducing unit.
摘要:
A recording apparatus that records data to an optical disc is disclosed. The recording apparatus includes a determination section that determines, when the optical disc is inserted, whether or not the recording condition information has been copied and recorded in the data recording area, a reading section that reads the recording condition information from the low recording-density area when the recording condition information has not been copied or recorded in the data recording area, and a recording section that copies and records the recording condition information read from the low recording-density area to a copy area in the data recording area while the optical disc is inserted.
