Abstract: An apparatus includes a first writing unit configured to write data to a recording medium in a first unit, a second writing unit configured to write data to the recording medium in a second unit smaller than the first unit, a reading unit configured to read data from the recording medium, and a control unit configured to perform control, in response to an instruction of reading data from the recording medium during writing data by the first writing unit, to stop writing data by the first writing unit, and then to read data from the recording medium by the reading unit, and, in response to completion of reading data from the recording medium, to write data in the second unit by the second writing unit.

Abstract: A recording apparatus configured to access a recording medium includes a controller that sets a temperature threshold value for execution of function limitation on the recording medium to the recording medium, wherein, based on an operation state of the recording apparatus, the controller selects whether to execute a first setting to set the temperature threshold value to a specific value or a second setting to set the temperature threshold value to a value greater than the specific value.

Abstract: There is provided a recording apparatus. A recording control unit performs control to record a still image or a moving image into a first recording medium. A control unit controls whether to permit execution of automatic background processing during a power saving period on the first recording medium. The control unit performs control to permit the execution of the automatic background processing during the power saving period when the still image is recorded into the first recording medium, and not to permit the execution of the automatic background processing during the power saving period when the moving image is recorded into the first recording medium.

Abstract: A recording control apparatus configured to control data recording to a recording medium in a first unit (AU) or in a second unit (RU) smaller than the first unit includes a position recording unit configured to control the recording medium to record a position of the second unit, the position being an intermediate position in the first unit, as position information when the data recording is completed, the position information being information about a position from which next data recording to the recording medium is to be started, and a control unit configured to control whether to cause the position recording unit to record the position information to the recording medium when the data recording is completed.
