Method and device for recording information

摘要

A method and device for recording information signals on a partly recorded writable record carrier (11), e.g. an optical disc. An information signal represents at least one information unit. The record carrier has a recording track which comprises preformed track position information indicative of locations for recording the information units. From the information signal a modulated signal is generated, and the recording track is scanned for recording the modulated signal. If recording is after and adjacent an existing recorded signal, a method for seamless linking of 2 parts of a recording on a CD-R/CD-RW disk is described. Recording the modulated signal is started at a location dependent on the location of an end part of said earlier recorded information signal, while locking said recording clock speed to the track wobble. Interruption of a recording can be done without loss of data or loss of storage capacity. No difference between uninterrupted and interrupted recording is guaranteed for the play-back system.
