LAYER JUMP ON A MULTI-LAYER DISC

摘要

A method and an apparatus for writing on a multi-layer disc are described. The occurrence of a layerr jump, due to the fact that e.g. the storage space available on a first layer is exhausted, is anticipated by monitoring the storage space available remaining. When approaching the layer jump a calibration procedure for recording on a second layer is launched, so that when the layer jump is actually taking place, recording can be resumed on the second layer with minimum delay.
