摘要:
An invention disclosed includes a layer number obtaining section (222) for determining which information storage layer (L1) has been accessed and a layer type identifying section (223) for identifying a type of the information storage layer (L1) determined by the layer number obtaining section (222). With the configuration, even in a case where an information recording and reproducing apparatus accesses an information storage layer different from an intended information storage layer by false operation or the like, it is still possible to dissolve mismatching between a recording or reproduction control scheme being set up and a recording or reproduction control scheme suitable for the information storage layer thus accessed.

The present invention provides an optical information recording medium (2) capable of shortening a time from acquiring identification information to starting a program etc. recorded on an ROM layer. The optical information recording medium (2) includes two or more information recording layers, information of each of the two or more information recording layers is readable by emitting reproducing light thereto, at least one of said two or more information recording layers is an RE/R layer (4), at least another one of said two or more information recording layers is an ROM layer (5), and the RE/R layer (4) includes an identification information recording region (41), and an interlayer-movement Flag is recorded on the identification information recording region (41).

An optical information recording medium (1) includes, on a substrate (50), a ROM layer (20), a RE layer (40), an intermediate layer (30) separating the ROM layer (20) and the RE layer (40), and a cover layer (10) provided in a position farthest from the substrate (50). The RE layer (40) is an information recording layer provided in a position farthest from the light transmitting layer and also is a recording layer of disc type identification information and an individual identification number recorded in a format allowing easier determination as compared to an information recording format used in the layer allowing only readout of information by use of light irradiation.Therefore, it becomes easy to check a disc type in a recording/reproducing device and one recording/reproducing device can be shared with other types of optical disks. Further, disk production becomes easy. In addition, it becomes possible to obtain an optical information recording medium that makes it possible to replace outdated data in the ROM layer by recording, in the RE layer, updated data obtained at the time when net connection can be established.

There are provided at least a first information storage area 20A and a second information storage area 40A. The first information storage area 20A contains, in advance, an OS or mpeg data. The second information storage area 40A is either write-once or rewriteable and available for writing OS update information or movie correction information. The configuration enables easy backup and restoration of software, content, and various information including update information for use by the software and content with reduced user time and workload.

A display control device (2) disclosed includes (i) a display/non-display video image determining section (70) that determines, on the basis of (i) video image information about a video image displayed by a display device (400) and (ii) viewing mode information indicative of a viewer's desired mode of viewing a video image, whether the video image displayed by the display device (400) is a display video image or a non-display video image and (ii) a shutter operation control section (80) that closes a right-eye shutter and a left-eye shutter of a liquid crystal shutter (500) when a video image determined as a non-display video image, which is unnecessary for the viewing mode and which is thus not to be displayed to the viewer, is displayed by the display device (400). The display control device (2) thus closes the right-eye shutter and the left-eye shutter of the liquid crystal shutter (500) when a non-display video image is displayed by the display device (400). This arrangement allows each viewer to view a video image in a mode suitable for the viewer.

摘要:
Recording mark forming method utilizing a device including a laser and a laser drive carried by a pickup having a movement drive wherein a control controls the drives to irradiate a recording medium with laser pulse sequences to form recording marks having recording mark lengths between a predetermined and maximum lengths, a top section, a last section including a cooling period, and an intermediate period. Heat of mark front edges is controlled by top section recording parameters classified according to recording mark lengths and recording parameters of first through maximum recording mark lengths are classified into a same group. Heat of mark rear edges is controlled by cooling start positions for cooling periods classified according to recording mark lengths. Cooling start positions for a second predetermined mark length through the maximum mark length are classified into a same group. The second mark length is longer than the first mark length.

A recording parameter setting device includes a trial recording parameter setting section (23) and a reproduced signal quality judging section (26). The trial recording parameter setting section (23) inquires, in accordance with the recording information, a storage section (3) containing recording parameters used for controlling heat of recording marks, and sets a trial recording parameter, wherein (a) the recording parameters are used for controlling heat of at least rear edges, (b) the recording parameters are classified in accordance with recording mark lengths, and (c) recording parameters of a predetermined recording mark length or longer are classified into a same group. The reproduced signal quality judging section (26) judges whether or not a reproduced signal obtained by reproduction of the trial recording carried out in accordance with the trial recording parameter satisfies a predetermined reproduced signal quality. If no, the recording parameters of the predetermined recording mark length or longer are further classified into detailed groups and trial recording is carried out again. If the reproduced signal satisfies the predetermined reproduced signal quality, the reproduced signal quality judging section (26) sets the trial recording parameters as a recording parameter. This makes it possible to form a recording mark capable of surely providing a good reproduced signal quality while the number of recording parameters to be used is reduced.
