ABSTRACT:
An optical disc reproducing apparatus repeatedly reproduces information recorded on an optical disc over a desired repeated reproduction interval from a starting position to an ending position. The apparatus is provided with: an optical pickup; a reproducing unit; a moving unit for moving the optical pickup from the ending position back to a predetermined position, which is positioned at a vicinity of the starting position, in a repeated reproduction operation; and a first memory for storing the information, which is recorded from the starting position to the predetermined position. The predetermined position is predetermined such that the information stored in the first memory have an information amount corresponding to a time enough for the moving unit to move the optical pickup from the ending position back to the predetermined position. The apparatus is also provided with a controller for controlling the reproducing unit to switch an object of reproduction from the information read by the optical pickup to the information of the first memory when the optical pickup arrives at the ending position and to reproduce the information of the first memory while the moving unit moves back the optical pickup.
