Abstract
A recording and/or reproducing apparatus outputs a loading time of a recording medium through a display to inform a user of the loading time, and a control method thereof. The recording and/or reproducing apparatus includes a calculation unit to calculate loading time of a recording medium when the recording medium is inserted into the recording and/or reproducing apparatus, and an output unit to output the calculated loading time to a display.
Claims28
A recording and/or reproducing apparatus comprising:
- a storage device configured with a plurality of loading calculation equations;
- a calculation device to calculate loading time of a recording medium when the recording medium is inserted into the recording and/or reproducing apparatus, where the load time is calculated according to one or more loading calculation equations selected from the plurality of loading calculation equations stored in the storage device according to a type of the recording medium;
- and
- an output device to output the calculated loading time to a display.
A recording and/or reproducing apparatus comprising:
- a reading device configured to read record information from a recording medium when the recording medium is inserted into the recording and/or reproducing apparatus;
- a storage device configured with a plurality of loading calculation equations, wherein the equations are based on at least one type of recording medium;
- a calculation device configured to calculate loading time of the inserted recording medium by using at least a portion of the record information and at least one of the plurality loading calculation equations selected from the storage device according to a type of the recording medium;
- and
- an output device configured to output the calculated loading time to a display.
A recording and/or reproducing apparatus comprising:
- a reading device configured to read record information from a recording medium when the recording medium is inserted into the recording and/or reproducing apparatus;
