This invention provides a method and a system to read and buffer an audio data file from an optical storage medium into a buffer memory. The data file comprises blocks sequentially stored in the medium. Each block comprises a subcode block with encoded subcodes and a corresponding main data block with encoded audio data. The method first designates a starting block where buffering starts and searches for the starting block in the blocks. After the starting block is searched, trigger a main data block decoding procedure to decode the starting block and main data blocks in later blocks. According to the timing when the main data block decoding procedure is triggered, decide the timing to trigger buffering the decoded subcodes to the buffer memory. Therefore, the subcodes and corresponding audio data belonging to the same block before decoding can be buffered into the same buffer unit after decoding.
A method for reading a coded audio data file in an optical storage medium and buffering the audio data file to a buffer memory, said audio data file comprising a plurality of blocks which are stored sequentially in a plurality of storing units in said optical storage medium, each block divided into a subcode block and a corresponding main data block, said subcode block comprising a plurality of coded subcodes, said subcodes comprising an address for each corresponding block, said main data block correspondingly comprising said coded audio data, the method comprising following steps:
