ABSTRACT:
A laser disc player is coupled with a compact disc replacing device, so that the laser disc or a plurality of the compact discs can be selectively reproduced. Further, the laser disc player includes a sub-tray placed on a main tray and capable of loading at least two or more compact discs, and a disc selector for selectively playing the discs of the sub-tray. The disc selector includes a rack gear mounted on a side of the sub-tray, a pinion gear meshed with the rack gear, and a cam gear. These components are arranged in such a manner that the compact discs of the sub-tray are moved to the center of a turntable. Thus, the sub-tray is moved, and a pick-up is focused on the disc to play it.
