A disc recording and reproducing device disclosed herein comprises: a resuming section which resumes writing of record data; a first reproduction synchronization signal output section which reproduces the record data recorded on a recorded data region, sequentially extracts a synchronization signal from the reproduced record data, and outputs a first reproduction synchronization signal; a reliability judging section which only detects a frame having a period in accordance with a predetermined standard from the first reproduction synchronization signal, and outputs the frame as a reliability synchronization signal; a synchronization signal phase retaining section which outputs a retained phase signal that retains a phase of the frame of the reliability synchronization signal; a second reproduction synchronization signal output section which reproduces the record data recorded on an additional data region, sequentially extracts the synchronization signal, and outputs a second reproduction synchronization signal; and a phase difference measuring section which measures a displacement of frames between the second reproduction synchronization signal and the retained phase signal.

Disk recording and reproducing device

An optical disk recording and reproducing apparatus comprise, a buffer circuit which receive and store data and output the stored data, an EFM modulation circuit which receive data output from the buffer circuit, adding a frame synchronous signal and sub-code data, subjecting these items of data to the EFM modulation to create record data, a buffer remaining amount control circuit for detecting the remaining amount of data stored in the buffer circuit, a record control circuit for conducting the control for temporarily suspending the recording operation to the optical disk at an arbitrary position of the main data of the record data excluding the frame synchronous signal and the sub-code data in the case where the detection result of the remaining amount of data in the buffer remaining amount control circuit corresponds to the state in which the buffer underrun is generated.
