Optical recording carrier having groove wobble phase changes between subsequent predetermined positions

摘要

An optical record carrier (1) is provided with tracks having a groove (4) wobbled in a radial direction and predetermined positions (18) along the track. Embossed pits (18) at the predetermined positions represent addressing information. The phase of the wobble near the predetermined positions depends on whether a pit is present (18) on a predetermined position or not (19). The wobble changes phase between each two subsequent predetermined positions of which one on the positions contains no pit and the other position contains a pit.
