Abstract

An encoder encodes the captured real-time data into a program stream. A disk authoring transforms the program stream into a disk file format. A disk writer records the disk file format on an optical disk, wherein the disk writer further includes at least two recording speeds. A buffer temporarily stores the program stream or the disk file format during the disk writer stopping the recording action. A sending-path controller notified by the disk writer to switch the data flow between the disk authoring or the disk writer and the buffer, wherein the sending-path controller also can notify the disk writer to switch the recording speeds.
