The interleaving means includes a fist interleaving means for performing first interleaving of NA×NC blocks, with NB bits in each block, where NB=n, using NA fragments of the internal code, with NC blocks in a fragment, and a second interleaving means for performing second interleaving of NA×NB bits NC times in groups of bits after performing first interleaving with the first interleaving means. |

Recording medium has a user data area and a control information area. Control information includes a space bitmap and a disc definition structure, which includes space bitmap location information. The size of the space bitmap is defined such that the combined size of the space bitmap itself and the disc definition structure is always equal to the size of one unit. If the size of the user data area in a predetermined recording layer exceeds a predetermined size, multiple space bitmaps are formed for the user data area of the predetermined recording layer. |

Optical recording medium and optical information device Recording medium has three recording surfaces, a coating layer and two intermediate layers. Thicknesses tr1, tr2 and tr3 of the coating layer, first intermediate layer and second intermediate layer, respectively, are converted to thicknesses t1, t2, t3 of corresponding layers, each having a predefined standard refraction index no, based on the equation tα=trα*(tan(θrα)/tan(θo)), where θrα and θo are angles of convergence of light in the layer, having each refraction index nrα and standard refraction index no. Thicknesses t1, t2 and t3 satisfy the condition |t1-(t2+t3)| ≥ 1 mcm. The difference between any two values of thicknesses t1, t2 and t3 is set equal to or greater than 1 mcm in any case. |

Playback device for playing back a video stream in accordance with playlist information comprises: a reading unit which reads out a transport stream file from the recording medium, said file being identified by the file reference information included in the playlist information; a decoder; a mode register storing an output mode of the playback device; and an output unit, wherein if the output mode is a planar-view output mode, the reading unit reads out the normal format transport stream file which is identified by a combination of file reference information included in the playlist information and a file extension which indicates that video streams are stored normally, and when the output mode is a stereoscopic-view output mode, the reading unit reads out the interleaved transport stream file which is identified by a combination of file reference information included in the playlist information and a file extension indicating that video streams are stored in an interleaved manner. |

Method includes steps of classifying encoded data according to a combination of a mark length of a mark, a space length of a first space and a space length of a second space; generating a write pulse train for forming a mark, in which a leading end edge position, a trailing end edge position or a pulse width of the write pulse train is changed according to the classification result. The space length of the first space is classified on M space length classes and the space length of the second space is classified on N space length classes. If the leading end edge position or the pulse width changes at the step of generating a write pulse train, one leading end edge position or pulse width is changed according to the classification result, wherein M is greater than N. If the trailing end edge position changes at the step of generating a write pulse train, the trailing end edge position is changed according to the classification result, wherein N is greater than M. |

Method of recovering records in storage device and system for realising said method Method of recovering records in a storage device in case of malfunction or damage to part of the storage device or distortion of data in the storage device, wherein memory of the storage device is partitioned into information areas of the same size and control areas, selected from different parts of the storage device. Each group of data to be stored is recorded in form of a set of code words in a corresponding information area. Three control sums are found, each according a predetermined formula, during each data recording using a corresponding computing unit. Each of the found control sums is then recorded in form of a code word with the same number in the corresponding control area, wherein each of the three control sums is stored in a separate area of the storage device. In case of malfunction or damage to part of the storage device, the computing unit calculates current control sums using formulae for each set of code words with the same numbers in all information areas. Values of the stored control sums and values of the current control sums are used to recover lost data by solving a system of equations. |

Method of measuring optical data media, optical data medium, recording device and reproducing device Method comprises four steps. The first step involves measuring the modulation depth of each layer of the optical data medium using an optical measuring system. At the second step, thickness between layers of the optical data medium is measured. At the third step, the reflecting power of each layer of the optical data medium is determined. At the fourth step, the modulation depth of each layer is converted to modulation depth for a standard optical system different from the optical measuring system, based on a value which indicates thickness between layers and a value which indicates the reflecting power of each layer. |

Method of recording and reproducing sound using laser Surface of a carrier is divided into sections which divide data in digital and analogue formats. An optical disc is used to simultaneously store, record and reproduce analogue and digital information on a spiral track. A varying relief is formed on the track, which reflects changes in sound waves from the source of the analogue signal on the information storage layer. When the record is read by an optical receiver of the reflected laser beam and the signal is converted from optical to analogue, the signal is varied according to duration and power of the reflected optical signal on the spiral track of the carrier. |
