Reproducing apparatus varying reproduction speed according to memory fullness

摘要

A reproducing apparatus is arranged to reproduce data, which are recorded in the form of predetermined blocks on a track formed on a recording medium, by causing a reproducing head to trace the track while moving the recording medium, write the reproduced data into a memory circuit, and rearrange the written data on the basis of an address assigned to each of the blocks and contained in the written data, thereby restoring the written data to the original recorded data. The memory circuit has memory capacities respectively assigned to a plurality of blocks obtained by a trace of the reproducing head. The reproducing apparatus is provided with an adjustment circuit for adjusting the remaining memory capacity of each of the plurality of blocks in accordance with the state of storage of the data stored in the memory circuit.
