Abstract

A light beam which scans the data on an optical recording support, generates an r.f. signal in the recording and/or playback device. As the r.f. signal is interrupted when the light beam leaves a data track, the detector circuit recognises from the r.f. signal level whether the beam is passing from one data track to the next. As the interruptions in the r.f. signal can also be caused by dirt, damage or errors on the recording support, it is impossible to be certain whether such an interruption has been caused by a track change or by dirt, damage or errors on the recording support. In order to recognise track changes reliably, the detector circuit does not generate a signal indicating a track change until the r.f. signal (HF) is below a first predetermined threshold (R1) and at the same time a track error signal (TE) is above a second predetermined threshold (R2). Detector circuit which recognises when a scanner leaves a mark or data track, e.g. in CD players, video record players, DRAW-disc players and magneto-optical recording and/or playback devices.
