Recording apparatus, reproduction apparatus, and control method

A method of controlling a recording apparatus having a drive part including rotational drive means for rotating an optical recording medium in order to record data onto the optical recording medium, the method comprising the steps of:

• coding data;
• controlling the rotational drive means for storing by overall control means controlling the recording apparatus overall in a recording-standby state to store the coded data;
• and
• servo-controlling the drive part by servo control means for drive-controlling the recording apparatus to record the coded data onto the optical recording medium when storing the coded data is completed.

A reproduction apparatus comprising:

• reading means having a drive part including rotational drive means for rotating an optical recording medium in order to read coded data recorded in the optical recording medium;
• read control means for controlling the reading means;
• storing means for storing the read coded data;
• and
• decoding means for decoding the stored coded data,
• wherein the read control means includes
• overall control means for controlling the read control means overall and
• servo control means for servo-controlling the drive part of the reading means, and
• in a reading-standby state standing by to decode the coded data stored in the storing means, the overall control means stops operation of the servo control means, and at the same time, controls the rotational drive means.

A method of controlling a reproduction apparatus having a drive part including rotational drive means for rotating an optical recording medium in order to read coded data recorded onto the optical recording medium, the method comprising the steps of:

• reading coded data recorded in the optical recording medium of the reproduction apparatus;
• storing the read coded data into the storing means;
• and
• controlling the rotational drive of the optical recording medium by overall control means controlling the reproduction apparatus overall in a reading-standby state standing by to decode the coded data stored in the storing means.

A recording apparatus comprising:

• a recording mechanism having a drive part including a rotational drive for rotating an optical recording medium in order to record data onto the optical recording medium;
• a data coder coding data;
• and
• a recording controller storing the coded data into a storage device, and controlling the recording mechanism to record the data stored in the storage device onto the optical recording mechanism,
• wherein the recording controller includes
• an overall controller controlling the recording controller overall and
• a servo controller servo-controlling the drive part of the recording mechanism, and
• in a recording-standby state standing by to store the coded data, the overall controller stops operation of the servo controller, and at the same time, servo-controls the rotational drive.
