Method, system, playback device and recorder for duplicating multi layer record carriers

摘要

When a multi layer record carrier comprising video information is to be duplicated on another multi layer record carrier the data spread over two recording layers on the source record carrier must also be spread over the layers of the target record carrier. In order to avoid the processing of the video data to find an appropriate layer transition point the playback device provides the logical address of the layer transition point of the source record carrier to the recorder and the recorder uses this logical address to implement the layer transition on the target record carrier.
