The position of a write spot on an optical record carrier, during a write operation by an optical recording device, is important for the quality of the data recorded. Radial positioning of the spot may be facilitated by means of tracking spots, signals from which identify the location of the write spot. Signals from the tracking spots may be affected by the characteristics of the optical record carrier in the their vicinity. Specifically, effects arise from the recorded or unrecorded nature of the tracks adjacent each spot. The invention comprises rotation of the means to generate tracking spots such that tracking spots may be placed in an optimum position for recording, regardless of which data layer on an optical record carrier is to be recorded or the recording direction.
