Optical disk, an optical disk barcode forming method, an optical disk reproduction apparatus, a marking forming apparatus, a method of forming a laser marking on an optical disk, and a method of manufacturing an optical disk
First Claim
1. Reproduction circuit in an optical disk reproduction apparatus for use with a disk on which data is recorded, wherein in a prescribed region of said disk, an identifier is provided for indicating whether a barcode-like mark is present or not on said optical disk, said identifier and said barcode-like mark are in respectively different locations on said disk, said barcode-like mark disposed in a circumferential direction, and said barcode-like mark having a plurality of bars, each of said bars extending in a radial direction, said prescribed region is included in a control data area in which physical feature information regarding said optical disk is recorded,said reproduction circuit comprising:
- input means receiving reproduced signals from said optical disk,demodulation means demodulating said barcode-like mark from said received reproduced signals by using reverse conversion of phase encoding method,identifier detection means detecting whether said identifier is 0 or 1 in the received reproduced signals, andoutput means outputting the value of said identifier to controlling means of said optical disk reproduction apparatus.

Abstract
Disclosed is an optical disk barcode forming method wherein, as information to be barcoded, position information for piracy prevention, which is a form of ID, is coded as a barcode and is recorded by laser trimming on a reflective film in a PCA area of an optical disk. When playing back the thus manufactured optical disk on a reproduction apparatus, the barcode data can be played back using the same optical pickup.
