ABSTRACT:
In a method for reproducing multimedia data recorded over plural optical disks using an optical disk library unit having at least one optical disk drive, during reading and reproduction of the multimedia data recorded in one of the optical disks, multimedia data from the optical disk is prefetched by an amount larger than the amount equivalent to the time required for exchange of the optical disks. The prefetched data is temporarily stored, and when the optical disk is exchanged for the next optical disk, the temporarily stored data is read and reproduced.
