摘要:
The invention is directed to provide an information recording apparatus having an adjusting process device which performs adjusting processes including an OPC process for optimizing a recording power for each of recording layers on a multilayer information recording medium, and an information recording device which performs an information recording process for each of the recording layers based on a result of the adjusting processes for each of the recording layers. The adjusting process device includes an initial adjusting process device which performs the adjusting processes at a start of information recording with the information recording device only for a start recording layer having the first recording start address, and an intermediate adjusting process device which performs the adjusting processes during information recording process with the information recording device for a recording layer other than the start recording layer.
