In accordance with the detected number of tracks, an optical pick-up jumps. After, the number of tracks corresponding to a difference between a time included in a discriminating information of track and the above-mentioned searching object time is detected. Then, the ratio of the number of tracks to be jumped to the detected number of tracks of the difference is calculated. The ratio is accumulated in each track searching operation and its mean value is calculated. The mean value is used as revising coefficient on and after the second track searching.
