ABSTRACT:
An optical reproducing apparatus according to the present invention includes a land/groove switching circuit for alternately switching reproduction of a record mark on a groove portion and a land portion. This allows a tracking operation to be carried out continuously at a connection point to a subsequent track in the recording direction without a laser beam from an optical pickup passing through an end of a spiral track. A recording medium according to the present invention includes a recording track formed of a groove portion and a land portion, and a record mark used for switching a tracking operation so that a light beam emitted from the optical pickup should be irradiated alternately on the groove portion and the land portion. When the record mark is detected, a track jump operation is carried out, and information is reproduced from the groove portion and the land portion alternately.
