Abstract: A recording method for an optical disk drive is implemented as follows. First, at least one of the level of the focusing error signal, the level of the tracking error signal, a wobble synchronization pattern loss, the error rate of demodulating a wobble signal and the frequency of buffer under-run occurrence is detected. If at least one detected value exceeds the preset value, the recording will be ceased. Then, the rotation speed of the optical disk drive is decreased, and the recording is resumed with the decreased rotation speed.

Abstract: In an optical recording system, according to a wobble sync signal obtained from a wobble signal associated with a physical track of a recording medium being recorded with input data by a recording module operated in a default constant angular velocity (CAV) recording mode, operation of the recording module can be switched from the CAV recording mode to a constant linear velocity (CLV) recording mode by a mode control switch. The mode control switch is forced to switch operation of the recording module to the CLV recording mode when result of a comparison between a write clock signal generated from the wobble sync signal when the recording module is operated by the mode control switch in the CAV recording mode, and a threshold signal corresponding to a threshold recording speed in the CAV recording mode indicates that the recording mode should be switched to the CLV recording mode but the mode control switch still keep the recording module staying in the CAV recording mode.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for generating a protection window signal for use in header detection of an optical storage medium are disclosed. One of the methods involves: extracting a maximum level of an RF-sum signal derived from the optical storage medium to generate a first level value; extracting at least one of DC level and bottom level of the RF-sum signal to generate a corresponding second level value; calculating a reference level according to the first and second level values; and comparing the RF-sum signal with the reference level to determine a protection window signal. When the accessing of the optical storage medium is switched from a first area with a first reflectivity to a second area with a second reflectivity, the response speed of extracting the DC level/bottom level of the RF-sum signal, the weighting of the second level value, or the DC level of the RF-sum signal is adjusted.
