Method of detecting optical disk error information

Abstract

A method of detecting optical disc error information on an optical disc, for applying in an optical disc drive, the method comprising: first, detecting whether the optical disc is blank, if not, perform the following: checking whether a seek error occurred, if yes, recording a seek error mark; while reading a data region, recording data error information, the data error information comprises an error count, and a corresponding data error location; finally, outputting the optical disk error information according to the data error information and the seek error mark.

       5 . A method of determining an optimal tilt angle for an optical pick-up head, comprising:
 determining a plurality of tilt angles, wherein the tilt angles are substantially different from one another;   reading an optical disc according to each of the tilt angles;   generating a plurality of sets of optical disc error information for each of the tilt angles; and   determining the optimal tilt angle according to the sets of optical disc error information.   
   
   
       6 . The method according to  claim 5 , wherein the optimal tilt angle is selected from the tilt angles that has least errors in the corresponding optical disc information. 
   
   
       7 . The method according to  claim 5 , wherein the step of generating a plurality of sets of optical disc error information comprises:
 while reading a data region of the optical disc, recording data error information, the data error information comprising an error count and a corresponding data error location, and   outputting the optical disc error information according to the data error information.   
   
   
       8 . The method according to  claim 7 , wherein the step of generating optical disc error information further comprises:
 determining whether a seek error occurred, if yes, recording a seek error mark; and   outputting the optical disk error information according to the seek error mark.   
   
   
       9 . The method according to  claim 5 , wherein the step of generating optical disc error information comprises:
 determining whether an address error occurred, if yes, recording an address error information, comprising an address error count and a corresponding address error location; and outputting the optical disc error information according to the address error information.
