Abstract

See full text

An optical disc apparatus includes an optical pickup which irradiates a first laser beam for reproducing a first DVD medium, or a second laser beam for reproducing a second DVD medium onto a installed optical disc, and receives the reflected light from the installed optical disc, a controller determines that the installed optical disc is the second DVD medium when a value by normalizing the amplitude of a RF signal generated from the reflected light with a coefficient is larger than first threshold value and smaller than a second threshold value, and the controller determines that the installed optical disc is the first DVD medium when the value is not larger than first threshold value and smaller than a second threshold value.
