Abstract

A method for the reproduction of data, such as digital audio data and/or video data, stored on a storage medium, for example, on an optical storage disk, in a playback device, in which an accelerated selection may be possible of storage media to be reproduced or to be rejected by playback device. In a first operating mode, data are filed in, for example, a nonvolatile memory during a play-back process of the storage medium. In a second operating mode, the storage medium is selected, for example, for a playback process and a reproduction process. Within a timespan during which the selected storage medium is brought from a magazine into a playback position, in which the data stored in the storage medium may be read out by a read device, or into an eject position, from which the selected storage medium may be retrieved, at least a part of the data filed in the memory is played back and reproduced.
