The invention relates to a method for determining the optimum writing power in a device for writing to optical recording media (1), which has the following steps of: in response to a write command, ascertaining a region (4) of the optical recording medium (1) that is to be used for a test writing operation, performing the test writing operation in the region (4) ascertained, ascertaining the optimum writing power on the basis of the data written in the test writing operation. <??>It is an object of the invention to improve a method of this type to the effect that it can be performed in a shorter time on average. <??>According to the invention, in order to ascertain the region (4) provided for a test writing operation, a jump (S21, S31) is made from an outer region of the optical recording medium (1) inward, a check is made during the end phase (S22, S32) of this jump (S22, S32) to establish whether a signal (RECD, RF) indicating recordings present is present and the jump (S22, S23) is terminated in the case where said signal (RECD, RF) fails to appear, and the information obtained from the optical recording medium (1) at the end of said jump (S22, S32) is utilized for ascertaining the region (4) sought. <IMAGE> |
