OPTICAL DISC RECORDING AND REPRODUCING APPARATUS, OPTICAL DISC RECORDING AND REPRODUCING METHOD, AND OPTICAL DISC MANUFACTURING METHOD

摘要

The BCA recording and reproducing apparatus performs recording of data onto an optical disc placed on a recording turntable, reproduction of data recorded on an optical disc placed on a reproducing turntable and ejection of an optical disc placed on an exchanging table and placement of a new optical disc on the exchanging table in parallel. A processing time is thereby shortened compared with the case of performing data recording, reproduction and exchange in series.
