Information reproduction apparatus with control means for plural track kickback operation

摘要

Upon initiation of reproduction of data from a disc, the operation of writing into a buffer memory data reproduced from the disc and the operation of reading out data from the buffer memory are carried out in parallel because the buffer memory is first empty. When the data amount in the buffer memory becomes full, a pickup is kicked back from the last reproduction sector by n tracks corresponding to the data amount of L sectors and the data writing operation into the buffer memory is suspended. When the reproduction sector reaches a target sector, data writing is reinitiated, and data of L sectors is written continuously until the buffer memory becomes full.
