An information reproducing device includes a setting unit that sets priority for displaying appended data appended to compressed data in a compressed data file, such as an MP3 file. The appended data is appended at various positions to the compressed data. A reading unit reads a compressed data file, an extracting unit extracts appended data from the compressed data file based on the priority set, and a display unit displays the extracted appended data. A reproducing unit reproduces the compressed data.

A focus jump control apparatus of a player for playing a multilayer recording disc surely achieves a focus jump. This apparatus includes: a focusing servo loop for allowing a focal point to trace a recording surface in accordance with a focusing error signal by using a focusing actuator to displace the focal point of read light to a disc in the optical axial direction; and a tracking servo loop for allowing the focal point to trace disc tracks. A loop opening/closing control unit opens/closes focusing/tracking servo loops in response to an instruction and closes the focusing servo loop when the movement of the focal point from one of the recording surfaces to the other. During the movement of the read light focal point, the closing state of the tracking servo loop is maintained. Jump driving means generates a drive signal of the actuator to move the focal point from one of the recording surfaces to the other based on the error signal under the opening/closing control of the focusing/tracking servo loops.

Disclosed is a focus control apparatus of the present invention capable of successfully performing an accurate focus jump operation without an erroneous operation of a focus actuator. The apparatus irradiates a light beam onto a recording medium, and generates a focus actuator drive signal for moving an optimized light convergence point of the light beam from one recording surface to the other, based on a focus error signal generated based on a returned light from the recording medium. The focus control apparatus comprises a detector for detecting that the focus error signal crosses a predetermined level as a specified level crossing; instruction means for generating a focus jump instruction; a drive signal generating means for generating the drive signal in response to the focus jump instruction and receiving a detection output from the detection circuit to recognize a timing of a specified level crossing of the focus error signal upon receipt of the detection output, thereby extinguishing the drive signal at the timing of the specified level crossing detection timing; and inhibiting means for inhibiting the recognition of the specified level crossing by the drive signal generating section for a predetermined period in response to the focus jump instruction.

A focus control apparatus for a multilayer optical recording medium which performs an appropriate focus jump on a multilayer optical recording medium. This focus control apparatus implements such focus jump control as to temporarily release a focus servo on one layer of a loaded multilayer optical recording medium, shift the focus position of read light on another target layer and then restart the focus servo on the another target layer, detects an ambient temperature, sets a drive signal condition according to the temperature detection output, and moves the focus position of the read light under the set drive signal condition. Specifically, this apparatus generates an acceleration signal to start moving the focus position of read light and a deceleration signal to decelerate movement of the focus position of the read light, as drive signals for a focus actuator in order to execute a focus jump operation, detects an ambient temperature of the focus actuator, and sets signal conditions for the acceleration signal and the deceleration signal according to the detected temperature.
摘要:
A focus control apparatus for a multilayer optical recording medium performs an adequate focus jump on a multilayer optical recording medium. Threshold values are set according to the amount of a level change in a focus error signal of a loaded multilayer optical recording medium, and focus jump control is conducted based on the result of comparison between the level of the focus error signal and the set threshold values. Positive and negative threshold values to be compared with the level of the focus error signal to detect a zero-crossing point of the focus error signal are set in accordance with the amount of a level change in the focus error signal, after which an acceleration operation of the focus actuator is started in response to a focus jump instruction to shift the focus position of read light for a focus jump, the acceleration operation is stopped in accordance with zero-crossing detection, a deceleration operation of the focus actuator is started thereafter and is stopped in accordance with zero-crossing detection, so that the operation returns to the focus servo operation.
