When record or reproduction quality of an optical disc is deteriorated, an enhancement in the performance is implemented by slowing down record or reproduction speed of the optical disc. However, there still exists a problem of how to select and determine a timing with which the speed is to be modified. In the present invention, the modification of the speed is performed with a seek processing selected and used as its trigger, and depending on various conditions at that time. Simultaneously, information recording area of the optical disc is separated into a plurality of zones. Then, when an optical pickup passes though a zone switching portion therebetween, the seek processing is inserted, thereby being used as the trigger for the speed modification. |
