Abstract

A method for calibrating a tilt in a disc player includes a disc insertion judgment step, a focus error output time judgment step, a subtraction step, a disc recording surface judgment step, and a tilt calibration step. In the focus error output time judgment step, an optical pickup unit is made to ascend and then descend for a predetermined time, to then judge a first focus error output time at which a focus error is output during ascending and a second focus error output time at which a focus error is output during descending. A focus error output difference time is obtained by subtracting the FET from the FET . In the tilt calibration step, if the FET is not same as a reference focus error output difference time (FETrf), the turntable is made to rotate, to calibrate a tilt between the optical pickup unit and the disc.
