A recording medium reproducing device comprises: reading means using a pickup to read data from a recording medium, and outputting the data thus read; memory control means for controlling the output data of the reading means to store the data in a memory; reproducing means for reading data from the memory and converting the data into a reproducing signal; and a microcomputer for controlling the reproducing means. In the reproducing device, the microcomputer varies a threshold value set for the memory, according to the time of absence or the frequency of absence of the output data of the reading means. Thus, the reproducing device eliminates the difficulty that the user feels unpleasant because of the frequent pause of sound reproduction.

An optical disk reproducing device has a spindle servo control in which when a focusing error or a tracking error occurs, the spindle control voltage immediately before the error occurred is detected and stored in a memory. During the spindle servo is being off, the spindle control voltage is retrieved from the memory and applied to the spindle motor. Because the spindle motor is rotating at a speed corresponding to the track now being traced during the spindle servo off period, the spindle servo can be established quickly.

Method and Apparatus for playing a CD are designed to allow playback of a partially recorded disk of CD-Rs (CD-Recordable) having the DRAW (direct read after write) capability. It is determined if a target disk is a partially recorded CD-R recording medium. When a reverse command to return to a predetermined address of the recording medium to execute playback is input, the absolute time for information being reproduced is detected and it is then determined if the absolute time is within a predetermined actual pause period. When the absolute time is determined to be within the actual pause period, the reverse command is canceled. It is therefore possible to properly operate a servo system within that recording area of the recording medium where information has already been recorded, thereby allowing a return to a predetermined address associated with the reverse command. This prevents the loss of control of the servo system. When the pickup position is in a lead-in area of the partially recorded CD-R recording medium, thus ensuring the proper reading control.

Disclosed is a CD player that ensures a setup operation and reproduction of information even when a partially recorded CD-R is set therein. The CD player sequentially performs the setup operation, starting from the first setup position located at the innermost periphery of the CD, predetermined for the setup operation, until the setup operation is complete at any of n-th (n=2, 3, . . . ) setup positions lying outwardly of the first setup position. If the setup operation is not completed even at an n-th setup position located at the outermost periphery of the CD, the CD player performs the setup operation again at at least one setup position lying inwardly of the n-th setup position. Also disclosed is a CD player that can discriminate a partially recorded, additionally recordable CD-R, and can execute the reproduction control for the PRD. This CD player discriminates a set disk as an additionally recordable one when a mirror-finished portion is detected in the control to detect the lead-in area or when the lead-in area cannot be detected and the TOC information cannot be read.

There are provided a musical composition reproducing apparatus and a musical composition reproducing method by which musical composition data can be reproduced without boring a user.The musical composition reproducing apparatus acquires a musical composition feature value indicating respective feature of a plurality of musical composition data recorded on a recording means, judges according to the musical composition feature value of musical composition thus acquired whether or not each musical composition data has a predetermined musical mood, and registers the musical compositions judged to have the musical mood in a reproduction list corresponding to the musical mood while arranging the musical composition data in a predetermined reproducing order. The musical composition reproducing apparatus receives selection of a reproduction mode provided to change the predetermined reproduction order, rearranges all or part of the musical composition data registered on the reproduction list in a reproduction order in conformity with the reproduction mode, and reconstructs the reproduction list, thereby reproducing the musical composition data in the reproduction order thus rearranged.

A recording/reproducing apparatus comprises a program data reading-out device, a classification information storage device, a program data storage device and a controlling device. The program data reading-out device reads out program data from a recording medium. The program data and identification information for identifying the program data are recorded on the medium. The classification information storage device previously holds classification information for classifying the program data in association with the identification information. In the program data storage device, the program data can be written in and read out. The controlling device collates, when receiving a program recording command, the identification information between the medium and the classification information storage device, classifies the program data into groups in accordance with the classification information corresponding to the program data, and controls operation for recording the program data on the program data storage device, while controlling operation of reproducing predetermined program data which belong to the selected group when receiving a program reproduction command.
摘要:
A CD player capable of detecting the recording end of a partially recorded CD-R (PRD) during playback. When an unrecorded area (URA) is detected, an address immediately before that of the URA is held and a setup is performed at the position of that detection. If the setup is unsuccessful, a setup is performed at a reference setup position, and when this setup operation is complete, playback starts from the held address position. When the playback from the position and detection of the URA are repeated a predetermined number of times, the held address position is discriminated as the recording end. According to a method of searching for the last piece of recorded information in the program area on a PRD, when reading failure occurs in a search, the pickup is moved back to a previous jump position to the occurrence of the reading failure. Then a search is conducted through a jump over tracks equal to or less in number than the number of tracks of a predetermined smallest amount of information from that jump position, and the last piece (e.g., song) is detected by a sub code acquired at a jump position immediately previous to the re-occurrence of reading failure. A CD player capable of ensuring reproduction of all the pieces of recorded information during playback of a PRD updates the last track number to the newly detected track number when detecting a next track number in an area following an area of a memorized last track number during playback of a PRD.
