ABSTRACT:
A player for storage media having a number of data groups is provided, which player enables a data group to be selected in a clearly organized way, particularly when a large number of data groups is stored on such a storage medium. In this context, a read head is provided for reading out the data of a first storage medium, and a read-head control is provided for positioning the read head in the area of a data group to be played, which data group is stored on the first storage medium. In addition, an input unit is provided where, on the one hand, various storage media and, on the other hand, various data groups, are selectable on a selected storage medium to be played. A conversion device is provided, which, in response to the number of data groups on the first storage medium exceeding a predefined value, forms at least two subsets from the number of data groups of the first storage medium, each of these subsets at the input unit being selectable as a different storage medium. The conversion device drives the read-head control as a function of the subset selected as storage medium at the input unit, to position the read head.
