DVD recording method and rewritable DVD apparatus

摘要

The DVD recording method is intended to increase the number of cycles allowed for recording on the disk an enormous number of times. This method comprises generating two data streams by using a plurality of code mapping variants prepared for coding input data, quasi-randomly selecting one of the plurality of code mapping variants, if absolute DSVs of the two streams are substantially equal, and converting into recording code sequences. This method prevents deterioration of the disk particularly in the management area and increases the number of cycles allowed for rewriting.
