摘要:
A focus servo control is performed by changing a condition of a focus servo loop from an open condition to a close condition in correspondence with a level of a reflection light signal, which is obtained as a reflection light of a light beam reflected from an information record medium is detected by a light receiving element such as an optical pickup. A focus servo controlling apparatus is provided with a disturbance level detecting device such as a servo control circuit for detecting a level of a disturbance light signal, which is obtained as a disturbance light other than the reflection light is received by the light receiving element; and a controlling device such as a system controller for setting a level, which is larger than the level of the disturbance light signal detected by the disturbance level detecting device, as a threshold level and for changing the condition of the focus servo loop from the open condition to the close condition on the basis of a timing when the level of the reflection light signal becomes equal to or larger than the set threshold level.

When a detection device detects any kind of change regarding track recording after the start of the track recording, a grouping instruction is given to information attaching and generating device. Then, the information attaching and generating device attaches the same group name information to a group, in which a track where the recording has been started in an information recording medium to a track recorded at the point when the grouping instruction has been received are made to be the same group, and group control information is generated. Therefore, since the grouping is automatically performed by any kind of change regarding the track recording, a user can omit the operation that he/she performs the grouping by himself/herself, and thus the operation load of the user can be reduced.
摘要:
An information reproducing apparatus which reads compressed information recorded on a recording medium by one of a plurality of different compression methods, writes the compressed information read into a memory, supplies the compressed information in the memory, to an expander in the order of writing and outputs reproduced information. The type of compression method used in compressing the information read from the recording medium is determined and the timing of starting to read the compressed information from the memory is controlled in accordance with a determination.
