Writing method for optical disc, processing method for information, optical disc apparatus, and information processing apparatus

Abstract

A writing method for an optical disc to optimize a writing speed, wherein a spiral track on the optical disc is divided into a plurality of zones, and different CLV writing speeds are used for performing a ZCLV writing to the zones respectively. The writing method comprises steps of: setting a plurality of writing modes; storing a plurality of zone parameter sets for the writing modes respectively in a memory, wherein each of the zone parameter sets comprises dividing times for dividing the zones, and the different CLV writing speeds for the zone respectively; determining a disc type of the optical disc by a disc type determining device before the ZCLV writing is performed; selecting one of the zone parameter sets that is suitable to the disc type of the optical disc; and performing the ZCLV writing with the writing mode corresponding to the selected zone parameter set.
