ABSTRACT:
A reproducing method of a reserved program and a compact disc player employing the method is provided. The method of reproducing a reserved program includes the steps of reading table of contents (TOC) information stored on a disc loaded in the compact disc player, storing the read TOC in a TOC memory, reading a reserved program recorded on the disc and storing the read program in a program buffer memory. Further, the method includes the steps of reproducing and outputting the program stored in the program buffer memory and simultaneously moving a pickup device to the starting location of the next reserved program according to the TOC information stored in the TOC memory. Furthermore, the method includes the steps of reading a reserved program from the location of the pickup device to store the read-out program in the program buffer memory after reproduction of the reserved program stored in the program buffer memory ends. The waiting time for a program search is reduced by locating a pickup device at the starting location of the next reserved program while at the same time a program stored in the program buffer memory is reproduced, and by reproducing the next reserved program shortly after termination of the reproduction of the program stored in the program buffer memory.
