ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method of ejecting/loading a tray of an optical disk player using a digitizer connected to a personal computer (PC) or a keyboard, even though an EJECT button is not installed on a control panel of an optical disk includes using a optical disk control program stored in the optical disk player. The optical disk control program is to be installed in a personal computer (PC) and controls the ejection/loading of a tray of an optical disk player. If a predetermined key or key combination is entered through the computer, an EJECT or LOAD command is applied to the optical disk player in response to entering of the predetermined key combination via the optical disk control program. The tray of the optical disk player can be ejected/loaded using the keyboard or digitizer, and thus there is no need to install the EJECT button in the optical disk player.
