摘要:
The invention relates to an optical disk drive. The optical disk drive has an objective lens to be driven by a focus actuator with a focus offset for focusing an incident beam onto an optical disk into a spot with a spherical aberration, and a processor to derive a first and a second characteristic from a sensor output signal and obtain a spherical aberration correction value (SA) from a pre-determined function, the pre-determined function defining a spherical aberration correction value in dependence on a focus offset difference value (ΔFO). The focus offset difference value (ΔFO) is determined from a difference between a second optimal focus offset at which the second characteristic is optimal and a first optimal focus offset at which the first characteristic is optimal. The spherical aberration correction value (SA) can be used to achieve a correction to the spherical aberration of the spot.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method and recording device for selecting an optimal write strategy for a specific type of optical recording disk. Such an optimal write strategy is selected even when the optical recording disk is of a type that has not been previously encountered or when the optical recording disk is otherwise unrecognized by an optical disk drive. The optimal write strategy and associated settings are selected from a set of write strategies stored in a disk drive. The disk drive bases its selection of the write strategy on the performance results of test writings conducted on the optical disk. The method entails testing the write strategies first at the maximum possible write speed and if necessary, at successively lower speeds until a write strategy that achieves a minimum acceptable write quality is identified or until the minimum write speed is reached. The selected optimal write strategy may be stored in the recording device or, alternatively, on the optical recording disk itself.
