Abstract
The object of the invention is to provide, as an auto-changer device, a medium recording-playback device which makes it possible to improve the ease of operations for ejecting plural recording medium elements from inside the device. The device possesses a stocker in which plural MDs are stored in respective storage sections that are distinguished by identification numbers, a carrier which loads installed MDs into the stocker or ejects them from an insertion port as far as a reloading position, an eject key which sets the eject mode for the MDs, and a CPU which, in response to input of the eject key, causes MDs that are present in the device to be ejected in a set order.
