METHOD AND DEVICE TO IMPROVE START-UP PERFORMANCE OF A MULTI-LAYER OPTICAL DISC

摘要

A method comprising recording data related to a start-up procedure on at least one of a plurality of recording layers disposed on an optical record carrier for reading back the recorded data during subsequent start-ups, the selection of the at least one recording layer based on properties of the at least one recording layer is disclosed. The technique reduces the optical record carrier start-up time and is useful for DVD, HD-DVD and BD recorders and/or players.
